ETHNIC
A large population of Italian-Americans in Port St. Lucie can
only mean one thing — amazing Italian restaurants! Popular
family-owned establishments include Tutto-Fresco, Ruffino’s,
Papa Louie’s, Sweet Basil, Da Vinci’s, Pastaio and so many more
to explore.
If Asian cuisine is on your list, check out Spice Thai, Ninja Thai or
Roy’s Sushi Thai. How about amazing Cuban food? El Cubanito,
Havana George Café and Mervis’ Café are always popular
choices. Port St. Lucie’s two Portuguese restaurants, Fernando’s
Dockside Grill and Luso Portuguese Grill, have earned stellar
reputations. If island-style cuisine — specifically from Jamaica
— interests you, check out Eckle’s Restaurant, Jerk City or One
Love Jamaican Cuisine.
Paying homage to the melting pot of America, visitors and
locals enjoy perhaps the best burgers and other American
delights at popular spots such as the St. Lucie Draft House, 2nd
Street Bistro, Duffy’s Sports Grill, Recovery Sports Grill, Pickled,
West End Grill, Sharky’s, Thirsty Turtle, Zest, Taplow Pub or Berry
Fresh Café.

SEAFOOD
It’s hard to argue that St. Lucie’s most popular ingredient may
be its fresh seafood. With commercial fishing boats coming in
almost daily, the area’s seafood restaurants are fortunate to
have direct access to some of the freshest local seafood there is.
Local landmarks such as Chuck’s Seafood and Cobb’s Landing
are decades old and still flourishing. Many other reputable
establishments include 12A Buoy, Crabby’s Dockside, On the
Edge, Skippers Cove, Bonefish Mac’s, Shucker’s, Lola’s Seafood,
Kyle G’s Oyster & Wine Bar and more.
