New Restaurants in Indian River County – January 2024

Welcome to the vibrant culinary scene of Indian River County, Florida, where four new locally-owned restaurants have recently opened their doors, adding unique flavors to our already diverse foodie landscape. Among these newcomers, we have a smash burger haven, a brand new Chop House masterminded by one of Vero’s Top Chefs. In addition, a downtown staple has undergone a total renovation and rebranding, unveiling a fresh new identity. Completing this quartet is a trendy new Boba tea shop that emerged just a few weeks ago. Supporting these mom-and-pop establishments is crucial for our local economy, ensuring that the money we spend dining out stays in our community, supporting families, and enriching our local dining experiences.

Don’t forget to order a side of Parmesan Truffle fries too! While Burger 101 does have a few tables inside, it primarily operates as a to-go destination, making it perfect for those on the move who still crave top-notch burger perfection.
