Restaurants in Royal Palm Beach

New England–style fresh seafood items, such as carpetbagger oysters and lobster rolls, accompany pork rib chops and brisket tacos to tables at Longboards Restaurant and Bar. Inside, hanging longboards and flat-screen televisions unite in their skinniness to forge a laid-back yet entertaining setting, similar to a monk's cabin placed in the middle of a red-light district. Behind the longboard-shaped bar, a libation wizard concocts house-made juice-infused cocktails and doles out craft brews to supplement a list of 16 bottled beers such as Shock Top and Kalik Gold. Porters, pilsners, IPAs, and ciders further solidify the eatery's credibility as a haven for hops.

Since no surfing-styled venue would be complete without an alfresco component, Longboards Restaurant and Bar also maintains an outdoor patio replete with a mini wooden walkway and picnic tables nestled atop a bed of sand, where a gaggle of plastic flamingos hones yoga skills. Trees, lights strung overhead, and colorful longboard murals ensconce patio denizens in an atmosphere utterly bereft of dullness.

Seated at booths or on an outdoor patio with brick floors, patrons of Pizza Stop and Pasta bite into New York-style pizzas with toppings such as baby spinach, roasted garlic, and sweet Italian sausage. Chefs also pile hero sandwiches with cold cuts and, bake pasta dishes, and toss chicken wings with tangy sauces.

Chicken, roasted peppers, and parmesan. Artichokes, sun-dried tomatoes, and basil pesto. Spinach, kalamata olives, and gorgonzola. These fixings mingle with mozzarella atop City Pizza Italian Cuisine’s gourmet pies. For something more conventional, try the menu’s build-your-own pizzas or a customer’s creation such as the meat lover’s, topped with pepperoni, sausage, meatballs, ham, and bacon. The restaurant’s other Italian grub includes hero sandwiches, pasta, calzones, and stromboli.

Treating dinners to inspired Asian-fusion cuisine, Asian Fin Restaurant wraps freshly caught fish in dozens of rolls augmented by the creative ingredients that line the eatery's sushi bar and sizzle from its kitchen. Japanese steak-house entrees ornament tables in a brightly hued dining room that shelves colorful vases. A flowering-tree mural with dangling red blooms draws the eyes of diners as they enjoy their steak, free-range chicken, or catch of the day at candlelit tables and finish meals with a homemade dessert offering of pumpkin cheesecake or white chocolate brownie. Guests can also cure their itchy throats without swallowing back scratchers by sipping on Japanese green tea or the fully stocked bar's supply of imported sake.

Hunkered down within a plaza in North Palm Beach, Allora Pizzeria & Ristorante engages appetites near and far by sending hand-tossed pies out the door for local delivery and simultaneously seating customers in a homestyle dining room. The menu's notoriously fresh fare serves up southern Italian staples with more than 20 entrees that weave pastas, poultry, and seafood in and out of bold marinara, alfredo, and wine sauces. To accentuate its homey atmosphere, the eatery employs a friendly staff and boasts warm décor, including a wood bookcase and wall-mounted light fixtures that give off a romantic glow. Allora pairs its meals with the authentic sounds of instrumental Italian ballads played over a speaker system that learned Italian from a native speaker.
