Vero Beach 32963, the new newspaper for the Vero Beach barrier island, is pleased to offer this online Dining Guide for all of the residents of the Vero Beach area.

By October 10th, we will have profiles, hours of operation, addresses, phone numbers, and in some cases photos and menu information for the leading restaurants in the Vero Beach area.

In this dining guide, we will publish two types of restaurant reviews. Full reviews of Vero Beach restaurants by our restaurant reviewer appear first in our print edition, and then are published here for your convenience.

We also publish mini-reviews in our online edition where our publisher (adapting a rating system introduced in the 1980s by the late Malcolm Forbes) uses a traffic light logo to provide guidance to readers.

These mini-reviews of Vero Beach restaurants are written by the publisher, not by the print edition's restaurant reviewer, and are based on his most recent experience at the restaurant. In the months ahead, formal restaurant reviews and mini-reviews of the same restaurant may be found in this space..
