Scampi Grill

Amazing Italian restaurant with fabulous service. This was our first time coming here and we are already are talking about the next time we are returning.

First visit to this outstanding restaurant. Service was attentive and efficient. Four for dinner and four very happy people with their four different entrees. We had the bruschetta and muscles as appetitizers best muscles I have had in a restaurant .
Recommend it highly

AMAZING! Our favorite place to go for all of our special occasions! I am very allergic to Seafood and have never had a cross contamination. My favorite is the Chicken Francaise… I have always had an exceptional meal! I am Italian and this is a special treat as it is far different from anything I make at home! Writing this review makes me want to go… On my way there tonight!

Just had the most amazing dinner, it was one of their 3 dinner specials. From the minute you walk in this place you can smell how amazing the dinner will be. The menu is extensive and too many choices of delicious dinners with amazing portion sizes. You can’t go wrong with this restaurant. The waiter was friendly and attentive. Thanks for a very memorable and delicious dinner

The best Italian restaurant on East Coast. Every dish hand crafted by the chef. .cooked to perfection. Excellent wine list. Never been disappointed.

Love the food here. You will enjoy anything you order on the menu. We’ve been coming here consistently for the past two years and have enjoyed it every time. Nice atmosphere, friendly service, great food.

There yesterday as we now arrived in Florida for the winter. We both had come our fave dish, Veal «Cranchio». See other review from 10 months ago. The best! Two very tender pieces of veal in a combination of flavors that are unique and addictive. The wait staff here for years. They’re all great! Tonight we saw Cindy again. It was a pleasure. We’ve been coming here since it opened in ’99 (?) Never disappointed. Enjoy!

Hospitality and ambiance is, to us, as important as the food.
On our 2^nd visit, we described our first visit’s dish as having white sauce, type of fish and that it had been a Summer special. The waiter insisted it to be ‘X’ dish… which turned out to be a lemon butter sauce. We immediately brought to his attention and returned the dish.
After discussing at length, straightening out the waiter’s mistake in taking the order, we were still charged for the returned $ 22 plate. The right dish never made it’s way to the table.
We feel they dropped the ball in all three marks. The dining area is small, dark and has poor acoustics.

Had a fantastic meal with a group of six. The restaurant is cozy, but not cramped because our excellent server promptly cleared the table as each new course was brought.
We started with the muscles appetizer. I love muscles, and these were fantastic. Perhaps more telling is the member of our group who hates muscles, tried these, and kept going back for more.
I had an excellent Caesar salad. It had grated parmesan and a definite garlic flavor. Others had the house salad which they enjoyed.
I tried the Veal Cranchio, and shrimp and crab special. Both were terrific. Though the lump crab could have been a tad bigger.
This is definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Vero.

Went to restaurant w reservation last night. Arrived on time. Many tables available. Told to sit outside and wait. Asked for drinks they never arrived. Other groups were seated. We were ignored for half an hour. We finally left. If you want to be mistreated by all means dine at Scampi Grill.

I came here on a Friday night, around 9pm, and It was packed, which is interesting for a restaurant that closes at 10. We called ahead, on our drive up and made a reservation. Schwing! When we arrived, only 2 tables were available, 1 of which was waiting for us. The restaurant is kind of small, but cozy. Nice décor. We weren’t sitting on top of people, but it was extremely loud. Could barely hear the waiter, but did catch they had a special with Scottish Salmon. I went for it, with a few mods, which they were happy to accommodate. I also had an appetizer salad which was half price with entrée.
Food came out in decent time, preparation was excellent. Salmon was a nice size portion. The risotto was very savory, with lemon and herbs. All in was about $ 30 bucks. Well worth it.
Good service, food was great. I would definitely go back if I was in the area.

Truly as good as it gets… have eaten here many times and has always been Great! Our favorite dish is the veal parm and the grouper or snapper in white wine. Scampis is a must when your looking for a great place to eat in Vero!

If you’re looking for a phenomenal dining experience with charm, great Italian food, and exceptional service — then look no further. I had the calamari for my starter, the special which was the most delicious yellow snapper I’ve ever had, then finished with a wonderful tiramisu dessert. Ask for Mikey and Sherry. Seriously, don’t pass up this place — you will not be disappointed!

Catch of the day ⁷⁄₁₄. I would of licked the plate but probably would of had some funny looks. We had 6 different plates and all were just out of this world.

Not to miss! Excellent prix fixe for $ 50 for two with bottle of wine, William is the man! Small place, great ambiance for couples. Great desserts too

Four of us went for dinner. The appetizers, artichokes francese and the panini were excellent, as was the fresh Italian bread brushed with olive oil and herbs. Everyone enjoyed dinner, including shrimp scampi, shrimp and crab imperial, and fresh mushroom ravioli. The risotto option is well worth the extra charge when substituted for pasta.
Cappuccino coupled with the lemon cake and Cannoli were also very good.
Great food coupled with great service made for a very enjoyable evening.

We went on the recommendation of a friend and it was a great time. We had a three course meal and a great bottle of wine. The atmosphere is outstanding as well as the staff. spent about 100 $
Make sure you make reservations as they will fill up quick.

Based on Unilocal reviews I decided to try this restaurant while visiting Vero on business. I had read based on other reviews that this restaurant would have me believing I’m enjoying dinner in Italy. I’ve been fortunate enough to visit Italy on 5 occasions and would agree that the ambiance of the restaurant is very much like many Italian restaurants. My one urgent recommendation is in regards to the table linens. This restaurant uses a table linen that is dark, has a dark stripe pattern, and most disturbing is that they are not changed after client use. I observed multiple tables finish their meal leave, plates cleared and only the table cloth brushed clean. This would NEVER happen in Italy. Authentic Italian restaurants take pride in crisp, light colored, and always fresh linens. Although this may be unique in the States, and if expenses are trying to be managed, I suggest they use paper over the linens that can then be discarded after each table is bused.
The glass of Red wine was served cold. Not impressed.
As for the food. I started with Brushetta. Very thick toasted bread and too heavy in garlic. I’ve had better.
The Cesar salad was tasty but a bit over dressed. For my entrée I had the Shrimp Capri over risotto. This was very tasty and a dish I would try again if I return (although the reuse of table linens would turn me off).
Service was very good and attentive.
Overall a decent dinner. But Scampi Grill should incur additional expense and change linens after each use. I don’t want my clean fork possibly touching an area that could have been the place of a dirty fork and the dark linens hide it.

My wife and I came here for our anniversary dinner and we were incredibly impressed with so much about this place. We loved the quaint, small town vibe that you get even as you enter the small back door. Every member of the staff was so friendly. It wasn’t even just our waiter. I could hear the way that all of the other staff was interacting with the guests and it was amazing. These people really love their jobs and believe in this place. We wanted to order bruschetta for an appetizer and our waiter advised us to order the panini bruschetta. It was not only the best bruschetta we’ve ever had but it was one of the best apps we’ve ever had period. The grouper cooked in the scampi was one of their entrée specialties and I loved it. I would very highly recommend this place. If you’re in the area and want authentic Italian with great atmosphere and personable staff, check this place out!

Off the beaten path, worth the search… once you find it you’ll hone in on it everytime guests come to town! We’re going tonight for dinner… AGAIN! third time in 2 months and we have plenty of good restaurants in ‘vero.
Atmosphere was great, service outstanding. Meals out of this world. I’ll come back to give you another review to see if it’s consistantly great.
