We’ve been to Nomad twice since the change of ownership and the food wasn’t good both times. We got fettuccine Alfredo a couple days ago and it was very plain, no flavor, no protein and pricey. It used to be a great spot with some unique items on the menu, always fresh and delicious. It’s become less than average and, unfortunately, we won’t be going back.WARNING: if you post a negative review, the owner will respond in a very rude, unprofessional manner or just tell you that you haven’t eaten there. Just scroll through other people’s negative comments and you’ll see what I mean.To the owner: this review is not factual?! Wow! Let me refresh your memory! It was a to go order, my husband picked it up and paid with a gift card. The owner (I believe) even commented, “oh it’s one of those”. Unfortunately, we still had a balance on it because the only other time we went, the owner asked if we could pay partially with cash so we did even though we didn’t want to! They just reopened under the new ownership and needed the $$$. So when my husband Went a few days ago to pick up the order, he paid about $20 for the pasta and there were a few bucks left on the gift card so the owner gave him a small chocolate. Owner, does this ring a bell or do you need me to find and post a picture of the receipt?!! Are you still claiming my review is “not factual “?

The food is really good. Great tasting sandwich. Fresh chicken salad with a nice fresh feel to it. Problem is that the sandwich was $16. The size of a small brioche burger bun. You know the ones from Publix bakery. Two small pieces of head lettuce and a half cup scoop of the chicken salad. One eighth of a pickle. ( literally half of a small spear.). $16 This is on us1 in Melbourne. Paying Miami Beach prices. Not worth the price. At half the price I would give it 5 stars.

Italian dinning at it's best. The eggplant parmesan is to die for. Lightly breaded and fried perfectly, let's all the eggplant flavor come through nicely. The gnocchi was like fluffy little pillows of air and the tomato sauce was like grandma's. Just the right amount of spices. The moussaka was very tasty. Francesco was very helpful in determining what wine went with what dish, a very knowledgeable man and extremely helpful. A very great experience in Italian dinning.

My husband and I, along with our two Havanese, Ernie & Fredo decided to eat at Nomad Market Eatery today and the experience could not have been better. We arrived at an "off" serving time of sorts, around 2:45 pm, or between "shifts" and were greeted with welcoming smiles and a bowl of cold water for our dogs. The food was beyond delicious and expertly prepared, the service was fantastic, the dogs were shaded and relaxed on the patio and everyone was super kind & friendly, ultra accommodating and extremely nice. As we were leaving, a lovely man apologetically approached us about "not having more servers and having us bear the Florida August heat on the patio." We were told the restaurant was moving "island side," ie: on the barrier island over the causeway(s) come September 2022 and to please come again. Thank you to these wonderful folks, and their superb food & drink, gracious accommodations and kindness towards humans and dogs...and YES we will definitely return!

Great service and Food. Loved Lasagna. Enjoyed small family feel. Even the house wine was good.

7:30 pm they don't answer the phone and it says they are open until 9pm. Glad I've learned to check ahead because this is the new norm. Annoying.

Amazing owners, atmosphere, and food. Definitely making this a regular family dinner spot. They put so much care into the menu and presentation. Such authentic Mediterranean food with a lot of it made in house by the lovely owners. I got a blackberry jasmine tea that I would love to buy bottles of for home.

We had an excellent meal at the nomad Market. We had two pasta dishes, a meat tortellini and caccio y pepe, both sauces were outstanding. Our wines were very good and service by the owner was special. They also have a toffee candy that is excellent. I wish we were in town longer to try more menu itemsDefinitely try this place, it was our best meal in the area and compares favorably with meals in any city. The dish of oil, garlic and herbs with bread in the beginning was unique and delicious. This is a place that the owner and staff take pride in and do it right

The food is excellent. I had moussaka that was the best I've ever had. My sister had a quiche and a Greek salad that she loved. The baklava was fresh with just enough honey. The owner served us. He is a lovely Italian man who catered to my 90 year old mother like she was family. The only criticism is that the music was a little too loud and made it hard to carry on a conversation with someone who has trouble hearing. Otherwise, it was great. You must try this place out.

Great quality food cooked and seasoned properly. So many options for gluten free, meat, vegetarian eaters. It’s hard to see it hasn’t been as busy as it should be due to Covid.
The owner is very friendly! Great authentic Italian pasta, you can tell they use very good quality ingredients. I have been there 3 times, we had great experiences!Recent update: I love the gelato ice cream sticks there, so creamy! My favorite is the yogurt blueberry ?!

My partner and I stopped by while driving down to Miami. When we walked in I was automatically won over, I felt like I was in a classic market and I had to take in the all the goodies surrounding me. I got a beer, Caprese sandwich and a side of meatballs- my partner ordered the Cacio e Pepe. The sandwich was delicious and light and went perfectly with the juicy meatballs and IPA. When I saw the face of my partner I knew the pasta was perfect, she graciously allowed me one of the last bites and I was quite tempted to take the rest for myself! We sat outside and I couldn't stop looking at the lengthy dessert menu and decided to pick up macarons and while I'm writing this review we can only say we wish we got more. If I lived near here I would be nearly every day. What a delicious treat! Definitely stop by if you have the privilege of being nearby!!!!!

Boyfriend and I went to Nomad Market Eatery and I was blown away. The service is so cozy and personal, our server was so sweet and made us feel like we were enjoying fine dining service. The menu is full of delicious sounding options that I had a difficult time deciding what to try. I finally ended up ordering To the Beet appetizer to start, roasted beets, apples, goat cheese, candied walnuts with a honey drizzle which was the absolute best way I’ve ever had roasted beets. Hands down. Must try even for those who don’t typically like beets. Boyfriend ordered their soup of the day which was potatoe and leek soup. So smooth creamy and well rounded flavor. We then got our main dishes, mine was chicken parmigiana which was cooked to perfection and had a fresh delicious sauce, he got the meatball sub which was also great. We finished everything off with some baklava which they served with freshly ground pistachios and honey. This place is easily my new favorite place to eat in all of Melbourne. A little pricier than your typical lunch spots, but will absolutely go head-to-head with some of the finer eateries in both Melbourne and Vero in terms of quality and flavor. Must try!!!!!

Hand crafted food. Wonderful service. Quaint and comfortable. Tortellini + shrimp was very nice.
