“ The cooks are legit! The menu is easy and straightforward. Beer available! Small, local spot. Loved it! ”
“ I visited with a large group of adults and teens a few days ago. The restaurant was busy, but we were seated very quickly. We were greeted promptly by our server, who was friendly and efficient during our entire visit. We ordered corn nuggets for the table and they were delicious. I ordered the veggie wrap, which was filled with rice, mushrooms, grilled onions, and broccoli. They grilled the actual wrap as well, so it is nice and toasty. I didn't ask for a sauce, but I did enjoy the wrap with a little bbq sauce. Balsamic glaze would have also paired well with this wrap. My daughter ordered the brisket tacos and loved them. The salsa is a little spicy, so she ordered that on the side. The fries are thick, crispy, and well seasoned. The ribs, burger, wings, and buffalo shrimp were also loved by the table. The stand out side dishes, other than the fries, were the coleslaw and mac and cheese. We will definitely return on our next trip through Vero Beach! ”
“ My wife and I stopped by on Christmas Eve and had an amazingly wonderful experience-from the door with a friendly greeting, to our server who was quick and attentive the entire meal. The food was excellent. As a retired Military member, I have had some great barbeque-this one is very near if not the top! The meats were prepared perfectly and the side items were homemade quality. Excellent! ”
“ Love the sides.... Great ribs and brisket. Always friendly service. The BEST country music playing in Vero Beach. Love it ”
“ 14 bones is one of my favorite places in Vero Beach to eat. As a result, my wife catered my 60th birthday party from there. The food was delicious and plentiful. They provided everything including: food, ice tea, ice, rolls, cutlery, etc. in addition to all that, at the last minute we realized that we didn't have any sterno for our serving trays. We called them and they gladly supplied 8 sterno's for $24.00, a very fair price. The food was delivered on time by the manager Brian. He was very helpful and my wife said he was also very helpful when she went in the restaurant to order the food. I would highly recommend this venue for a great dinner or for any catering needs that you may have. ”
“ We ate here at the recommendation of the Disney Resort nearby and it was a great choice. They accommodated our party of 10 (including 3 kids) without blinking and everyone found something to their liking on the menu. The brisket was fabulous, sausage was excellent and ribs were flavorful (and the mac n cheese received high ratings too)!! Our server was patient and friendly, especially with our large, multigenerational group., When I called later to ask about a minor error on the receipt, they fixed it immediately and were super pleasant about it. So gracious and helpful! You'll be happy you stopped in when you're in the Vero Beach area! ”
“ Ate here on several occasions while working in VB and never had a bad meal. Lunch or dinner, always high quality BBQ and top-notch service. Have had a couple sandwiches and a full meal, and always a great experience. Can highly recommend the Hawg Attack sandwich, the sausage in top really makes this stand out. Sauces are good, with a hot version available. My only complaint is that I was expecting a little more spice and flavor from the red beans & rice, which turned out to be rather boring. ”
