Pineda Inn Bar & Grill - A Hidden Gem with a Dash of Island Magic!

A Hidden Gem with a Dash of Island Magic! Picture this: a last-minute adventure, a cozy little haven, and a Cuban sandwich so good it felt like I was transported straight to Havana! That's exactly what I found at The Pineda Inn Bar & Grill last week. We were the only group there, which made it feel like we'd rented out the whole place (VIP vibes, anyone?). The ambiance was chill--no hustle, no bustle--just good energy and a perfect spot to unwind. Now, let's talk food. The Cuban sandwich? Oh, honey, it was everything. Crispy bread, tender pork, and just the right kick of flavor. Every bite whispered, "Relax, you're on island time." And the chips and salsa? Don't even get me started! The salsa was the kind of delicious that makes you pause mid-chip and shout to your table, "Am I dreaming or is this the best salsa ever?" Spoiler: it was. But wait--there's more! The service staff was sweeter than a tropical breeze. Attentive, friendly, and genuinely kind, they made sure we felt like long-lost friends who just stopped in for a chat and a snack. If you're looking for loud crowds and flashy gimmicks, this isn't your spot. But if you crave low-key vibes, fantastic food, and service that feels like a warm hug, The Pineda Inn Bar & Grill is calling your name. Pro tip: don't skip the salsa. Trust me, it's life-changing.

Food was excellent love sitting out by the water. Always have good entertainment and the service is excellent

Great food, great staff, quick service with amazing views of the intercoastal river. Tad bit pricey for the offerings but always good drinks and food. Live music sometimes too.

Excellent atmosphere. The music is great, the patio is dog friendly, and the drinks and food are tasty.

Stopped by for the first time today to check the place out. Very casual atmosphere, you can eat inside, at the tiki bar or outside with a very nice view of Indian River. Nice atmosphere, great service, tasty food. Not a big menu but enough for a quick bite. Today there was live music, not sure of this ongoing or in certain days only. Overall it was a very nice, casual, experience. Can't wait to take my family when they come up to visit.

First timers! What a view. This place is for everybody and whatever type of vibe you are feeling. There is seating and ton outside widening along the river shoreline. It goes on for days. The servers from the host to the waitress were very welcoming, friendly and in great moods welcomed us in and farewell out. The waitress was nice, smiled, and knowledgeable of the menu. She was very attentive and checked in. The flow from start to finish was great. We order blacken mahi sandwiches and came with French fries and a pickle spear. Very fresh, flavorful and presentation was good. the portions are large. Ordered a new dessert raspberry cheesecake with whipped cream top and the side. good portion, room temperature and fresh. Everything Yummo! Then to top it off walked onto the long dock and watched the fish in the water play and sailboats come in. Will definitely be back. It was very nice and relaxing. Perfect way to spend a Saturday.

The crab cakes and onion rings were really good. My wife enjoyed her grilled chicken salad. Although I did not try it myself, the others in our party said their fish sandwiches were excellent! Great experience. Look forward to going back.

Came here with my sister and hubby after watching Spider-Man No Way Home! We shared a few apps. Crab cakes were tasty! The popcorn shrimp was too much breading with little shrimp. I enjoyed my coconut shrimp with French fries. Handsome husband ordered the same thing but got less shrimp. Weird. Great atmosphere outside! We loved walking along the dock after our meal.
