The Wave Kitchen & Bar - (Near Vero Beach, FL)

Kristi Collins Consistently excellent food, warm service, creative menu, and unbeatable freshness. We ate here every day during our stay - each time absolutely delicious! If you’re visiting St. George Island, do yourself a favor and stop by Big Fish Cafe SGI — it’s absolutely worth it!

Kim Reyneldes Loved the food it was so good and so fast! The employees were some of the nicest people Ive meet! Definitely recommend

jljcam Wow! Who knew such a gem existed one hour from Gainesville, Lake City and Cedar Key? We attended a funeral in Cross City Florid last week, and decided to stay at the Putnam Lodge. The Chiefland hotels didn’t look very good and the history of this lodge pulled us in. What a delightful surprise! It was built in the 1920’s in the heart of the timber boom. It was the perfect place for tourists to stop on their way to find that perfect piece of land south. The pecky Cypress and the lodge is gorgeous! The staff was very attentive, the owner who is so charming had poured her time, money, and love into restoring the building. The restaurant was top-notch! I had the ribeye with homemade mashed potatoes. Wonderful young man in the kitchen who learned his skills working as a teenager! Top notch! We enjoyed walking through the lodge, reading about its history, and simply looking at the beautiful building built in the 1920s. There were spacious large staircases, beautiful hallways and a perfect room with everything we needed. What a refreshing change from the chain hotels we have stayed at throughout the country. It felt like a bed and breakfast without the breakfast. It was kind of magical for us. The beds were very comfortable, the linens weren’t that sweaty polyester, and the pillows were just perfect. We stayed in the haunted room, but saw no ghosts, only a spacious closet with the lovely tubs that lean back. It even had an overhead fan, sheers, blinds and block out curtains. We both had a lovely nights sleep! The lodge has an event room, and a beautiful outdoor space with a 20’ x 20‘ fountain. I sat outside, relaxing, listening to smooth jazz and listening to the birds the owner kept. Even though we were in Cross City for a sad occasion, it brightened the weekend and I’m still having wonderful memories of staying in this lodge. It was magical for us and I hope you will consider staying there on your next trip anywhere near Cross City. Let’s support these historical gems.You will not regret it.

Dave Palmer Authenticity rang through and earned all five stars I gave! The food was delicious, and I was quite impressed by the plating. It was thoughtfully done and tastefully made. If you want really good Mexican food, this is your spot. You might not think from the outside that what you would find inside would be outstanding, but you would be incorrect. The food is excellent, the space was clean, and the price was reasonable. I just hope it doesnt get ruined by people that go in and expecting American style Mexican food. That is not what you will get, and what you do get is way better!

Li-Anh Bayard Amazing Brunch hidden gem found by chance after airport drop off. There is nothing more appealing as a welcoming staff and atmosphere when entering an eatery. Our server, Sandy, was supported by fully engaged staff. Our Americano coffees were delivered hot and freshly brewed. The menu options were numerous and choosing was difficult. Started with hummus appetizer accompanied by fried pita strips. Very tasty! I choose Turkish Eggs that were very enjoyable, but less yogurt would be preferable. My daughter had Venezuelan Cachapa - WINNER! The arepas filled with cheese was Sooo very delicious. With all of the menu options, we will have to return multiple times to try them all. The cleanliness, prompt and friendly service speaks volumes for this staff. Well done Seventy 1 Bistro, we will be back often when in the Pensacola area.

Michele Dean The times I have been there~ atmosphere and food 5 star❤️ I will have to say the alcohol drinks I have had not the best. My French martini last time didnt even have pineapple juice in it. Maybe next time, a smokey old fashion or just a beer.
