Stuart, Florida

Martin County · 323 restaurants

Stuart calls itself the "Sailfish Capital of the World," and its historic downtown along Osceola Street sits where the St. Lucie River meets the Indian River Lagoon, drawing anglers and boaters to a walkable district of seafood restaurants and riverside bars. The city's 320 restaurants serve a Martin County population heavy on retirees and second-home owners who split time between Stuart and the Northeast. Downtown Stuart's arts-and-antiques district gives the dining scene a small-town character that stands out from the denser development found farther south along Florida's Treasure Coast.
