CITRUS GRILLHOUSE – Mediterranean
An oceanfront room on Vero Beach's barrier island, lively enough that the bar carries its weight, with a seasonal American bistro menu leaning Italian and Mediterranean. Executive chef Scott Varricchio changes dishes as produce turns. Lunch brings burrata with sliced tomato, arugula and crushed almonds; seared U-6 shrimp marinated in Calabrian peppers over field greens; smoked salmon tartine; black truffle fries. Heavier plates run to hot Italian sausage bolognese with orecchiette and whipped ricotta, citrus or roasted-garlic risotto, and an eight-ounce Wagyu burger on grilled ciabatta. Florida Trend gave it a 2010 Golden Spoon for best new restaurant. Reservations suggested.
