“We had a family dinner of five at Angle this past June. It was our first time at Angle (but not at the Eau), and from the minute the valet picked up our car to the minute he brought it back, it was an exceptional experience. Since it was the off-season, it was not crowded at all, which was nice. The soft piano music was a lovely touch. The wait staff was phenomenal, the food was incredible, and the great attention to detail was not lost on us. It was the small things, like the tree stand for the to go bag, the beautiful boxed chocolates that came with the bill, the acknowledgment of our special event, the greeting of “Mr.”, etc. The dining room is spotless, well spaced out, and comfortable. There were several people working, but it never felt crowded or like you were being watched. I only took a few pictures of what we ordered because we started eating immediately because it was so delicious. Lol. We are still sad that Polpo closed, but we loved Angle and will definitely be back.”

“Our waiter was fantastic and the timely service superb!”

“We are currently staying at Eau Palm Beach Resort for our vacation and chose Breeze Ocean Kitchen to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. Unfortunately, the experience fell well below the standards we expected from a luxury resort.

The pizza was clearly burnt (see photo). Our server insisted this was intentional and even suggested it was due to the dough fermentation process, but this was obviously not authentic Neapolitan pizza, it was simply burnt. While other staff members were friendly, our server’s dismissive attitude made the situation worse.

It’s disappointing that a special birthday celebration was affected by poor food quality and the way our concern was handled. We expected much better from a resort of this caliber.

Update: After I posted my review, the restaurant’s management called me personally to discuss our experience. They listened carefully to our concerns, sincerely apologized, and invited us back for dinner the following evening. Unfortunately, we were checking out the next morning, so we couldn’t accept their invitation.

Their genuine concern and personal follow up made a lasting impression. While our original dinner fell short of expectations, the way they handled the situation afterward demonstrated a true commitment to guest satisfaction. Because of the professionalism and care they showed in making things right, I’m updating my review to 5 stars. I only wish we had been able to take them up on their invitation before leaving.”

“Visiting from up north.. good choice”

“Outstanding service, atmosphere, and live music !! Every dish was stupendous! 👏👏👏👏”

“Lo mejor de Delray sin duda el trato único y el ambiente súper 🍉🍌🍋‍🟩🥭🍑🍒🥑🥦🥬”

“The most amazing Italian restaurant ever. The food is absolutely amazing. Family owned and they make you feel like part of their family. Could not recommend a better place.”

“Good overall 🙏💪🏻💪🏻 love the food everyone is super friendly many blessings”

“The tableside guacamole is brilliant. It is highly entertaining to watch them make it, and the flavor is incredibly fresh.I mixed and matched a few different tacos, but the pork belly was the undisputed champion of the night—absolutely delicious. The staff was incredibly attentive, the venue has a great vibe, and the bill was surprisingly reasonable. I will definitely be back for more.”

“I’m conflicted on whether or not to share this amazing review of Composition coffee. Which is — in my opinion— the best kept secret of West Palm Beach. But it’s too good a secret to keep! I come here regularly for the best coffee in town, a beautiful atmosphere and lovely staff. The owner is incredibly intentional about what they serve and how they serve. The dedication to quality coffee and service is such a breath of fresh air in contrast to the usual fast-paced get-them-through-the-door establishments of big coffee we’re given in most places. I can’t say enough good things about this place and the people and team behind it. Thank you guys and ladies! 🙌”

“This restaurant is absolutely amazing! From the ambiance to the food, I can't help but admire it. Every bite was a delight, especially the red snapper sashimi, gnocchi, and fennel salad the flavors were truly unforgettable. The atmosphere is so cozy and stylish, you won't want to leave once you sit down. I'll definitely be back; this is a hidden gem!”

“4 of us had dinner at Belle and Maxeell’s Saturday night, May 28, 2022. This was our 2nd visit. It won’t be our last. As before, the food was extraordinary. Unfortunately, as so many restaurants, right now, they were severely short handed however, we truly never noticed. The servers took exceptional care of us. Topping off our meal was THE BEST RICOTTA CHEESECAKE we’ve ever eaten. Thank you Belle and Maxwell's for making my Birthday special.”

“Everyone is amazing there, good service”

“I grew up in Chicago but moved away in 2002, and since then I hadn’t found a pizza that even came close to true Chicago flavor—until 2018, when I accidentally stumbled upon Windy City Pizza. The first bite gave me that Ratatouille Ego moment (if you know, you know). I could have cried. After so many years, I finally found a Chicago pizza that truly tastes like home. I absolutely love this place and happily drive 40 minutes whenever I can. Needless to say, I highly recommend this place.”

“My first experience dining here, read the reviews and they sounded good so decided to book a reservation. Arrived at the restaurant had to park four blocks away parking is atrocious. The hostess was busy talking on her phone, never a good sign. Sat down finally, decided on an appetizer and some entrees the waiter came back and said they were out of the appetizer, started off bad. Very limited fish dishes, ordered a steak dish and a fish dish,nothing spectacular and it was tough we did not say anything to the waiter the whole situation from beginning to end a total disappointment, couldn't wait to leave, actually felt nauseated after leaving after eating my fish with risotto, it was so greasy. Very loud place hard to have a conversation.I don't know what the hype is about this place because the prices do not match the food quality or the presentation. Would not recommend nor would I go back ever. The whole vibe was uninspiring and the atmosphere was just not a good experience or fun. I guess if you're a drinker this place might be fun but if you're not it makes waiting for your entree for 45 minutes more excruciating, was not impressed about anything about this place and I wanted to be. Note to manager find a Hostess that seems like she's interested in seating people and not talking on the phone. I could honestly say I had better food at the gas station on the way into town, the homemade empanadas there were amazing. All I can say to people is beware of reviews you'll get burned I know I have on several occasions. I've run into people who absolutely love this place while I've been in town, wish I could say the same. maybe I was there on an off night but waiting 45 minutes for an entree when three of their tables were seated and served before I was seemed a little strange. the wait staff seem tired and uninspired.”

“Hands down the best ice cream spot in the Delray Beach area! If you’re planning to order an ice cream cake, I definitely recommend placing your order ahead of time. Thank you, Ronen, for pulling together a last-minute cake, it was perfect! My personal favorite is the SoFlo Swamp or Cookie Chaos The cookie dough ice cream cake was a huge hit for my two-year-old’s birthday and my brother-in-law’s said it was way better than any cold stone cake they’ve ever had before. My husband’s go-to is the espresso milkshake, and he absolutely loves it.”

“Oh my goodness! You must try this place. Chris our waiter was superb! Suggestions on drinks and dinner. We tried the martini flight. I had Chicken Parma. My daughter had the shrimp pasta. Delicious, fresh, and just right. We are from north Florida traveling through and found this place on the internet. What a great find. We will be back and recommend to our friends. Thank you Chris!!”

“Juli was awesome and made the night. She patiently answered all of our questions and gave great recommendations and was just pleasant. Would highly recommend the lamb chops. Perfectly cooked, tender, thick cut and lovely seasoning. The fennel and cucumber salad was another lovely dish with a tzatziki underlay topped with fresh greens. The sticky toffy pudding with pistachio ice cream was a night way to end the dinner. Great date spot. Nice ambiance. Comfortable outdoor seating.”

“Nice atmosphere, good food and drinks, but absolutely horrendous, and i mean, horrendous, service. Likely the worst ive had in south florida. I refuse to go back. Every step of the experience was painstakingly slow”

“Simply wonderful!! Loved my turkey & Brie sandwich!!! SYS”

“The First Class World Class Five Star Services- Colony Hotel Palm Beach. My 2nd Season in a row; will do it over and over again.”

“The picanha was delicious! Cooked perfectly great cuts and seasoned to perfection. The rice and beans we got as a side was also great. It was our first time there and they gave us a complimentary app of their amazing cheesy bread, kebe, and coshinas. We loved it!!! They also had live entertainment and the guy singing all of the classics was spectacular! The service was also very good. Well will definitely be back often! Thanks guys!”

“You guys rock! Not only the best tacos I’ve have in years, but the best tacos al pastor I’ve ever had! Thank you guys for the food and the service! ❤️🙏🏼🤤”

“I am so glad my family and I live so close to Souvlaki restaurant, we visited there very often and enjoyed the atmosphere, food and service very much. This restaurant makes me feel that I am back to the country I was born every time I visit.”

“My daughter is very picky with ice cream and saw a Facebook ad requesting we go. We went and ordered 4 different things in the hopes she’d eat something. She finished her entire ice cream and literally gave it a thumbs up. Usually she eats 1-2 bites and says she’s done. My 2 year old swapped between his and mine because he couldn’t decide what was better. My husband finished his first and doesn’t usually eat ice cream. We got strawberry sorbet, Greek yogurt, Belgium chocolate, chocolate hazelnut Oreo-one was made into a sandwich nothing but deliciousness!”

“If you like Italian food this place is very good, catch them for the Early Bird Specials and you'll be amazed at the amount of food you get. The garlic rolls are absolutely the best. Enjoy, I usually have the Chicken Parmesan but this time I had the Chicken Scarpariello, can't go wrong with either. The restaurant and restrooms are very clean.

Tom was our server, he was very personable and knowledgeable. He gave me some butternut squash soup to try, which was delicious. Great choice for a dining experience!”

“Had a great dinner! Lea was ver attentive and personable! 10/10 would recommend and we will be back.”

“Best breakfast food in town”

“My husband and I have tried many Indian restaurants since moving to South Florida and none compare to Coriander in Boynton Beach. All the dinners we have had here have been excellent, reasonably priced with courteous service. We will continue to enjoy the restaurant in the future and reccomend it to our friends!”

“Celebrated our anniversary here last night and it was amazing! The service was top-notch, the food was chef’s kiss, and our waitress Ashley was the sweetest—so attentive and kind. No complaints at all. Highly recommend this spot, and we’ll definitely be back!”
