VERN Restaurant and Bar

"This place is interesting....we were excited to try a new waterfront restaurant as we love coming by boat. The pictures posted on social media do not match the vibe of this place. The pictures show a fancy well kept place and unfortunately this place isn't it. It's more of Ikea when expecting restoration hardware.. We are bar people and we were disappointed that the bar was dreary, unwelcoming and smelled just like the men's room next to it. We went on a day that wasn't busy and weren't allowed to sit at four seater that had a better view (we were two people, which two people were later sat at). The drink menu was inviting and they were pretty good, but were very weak for the price. The food carried this place. The crab salsa was fresh, delicious and the star of the show. The lobster mac and cheese was outstanding, cheesy with quite a bit of lobster. The burger was solid as were the fries. It's a place to try but don't expect what you see on social media."

"Went to this gem of a restaurant on Sunday and I just have to say, the vibes were immaculate! Live music & performances (specifically steel pan the day I went) with an amazing view by the water, not to mention the great food !! There’s many options for food, including vegetarian options as well. The drinks were delicious also! The service was amazing and the owner Vernisha, came to meet us herself and personalized our experience, amongst others there as well! Will be coming back here and bringing other friends and family for sure!"

"We came down to see a friend's band play. We ordered cocktails and appetizers. We had a very nice time. The food was delicious, music was great. I am looking forward to coming back and doing it again."

"We visited VERN with another couple on a Saturday evening for dinner! This gem of a restaurant is not to be missed! The staff is so friendly , attentive and the service was fabulous! Everyone’s drinks, appetizers and dinners were absolutely so fresh and delicious! Beautiful views and an added treat - they have live music! Run, don’t walk to check out VERN!"
