Recently moved to North Palm Beach, FL and gave Belle’s a shot, as a family member loves it and goes there regularly including for trivia every Monday evening.
I went for brunch and was AMAZED that it wasn’t totally packed. There were some people there but only 1 at the bar. And this was on Father’s Day at 11:30 AM.
The reason I expected it to be packed was because the quality of the food and drinks, the atmosphere/location, and especially the SERVICE was outstanding. It was also affordable — a bit more expensive then something like a IHOP or Denny’s chain, of course, but way less expensive than many of the other restaurants/bars I’ve been to in the area…and it was superior in all ways. I took a picture of the rear of the restaurant because you don’t see that side of it in pictures, and you’ll see it has a beautiful back patio right on the ocean at the Safe Harbor marina, so you can sit out there and admire all the fancy yachts, haha.
The Happy Hour menu also looks even cheaper. They have cheap drinks and also meal options where you get a full-course meal (salad, entree, and dessert) for $20.
For brunch I ordered the Crème Brûlée French Toast as I love all things crème brûlée, and it didn’t disappoint. It was loaded with fresh veggies, perfectly crispy with the traditional lightly charred crème brûlée top, and filled with an awesome custard-style filling. And it was huge. The entree was one of the more expensive options, at $18, but still affordable and well worth it. I couldn’t even finish it all and ended up bringing an entire half home for future breakfast(s).
I know from my family member’s experience that the happy hour and later-evening bar crowd gets much busier and that it has a fun, relaxed, casual atmosphere. They have trivia Monday evenings and I did attend once awhile back k when I was visiting, and it was superior fun even though I’m awful at trivia. There were about ten teams and it was managed well and took about 90 minutes.
Anyways, last note and the reason I’ll go back - the service is EXCEPTIONAL. Super friendly, very attentive without being bothersome, and genuinely seemed to care that I had a good experience. I’d like to point out that Susi and Scott have been my bartenders and they were amazing. And Erin, a house manager, also introduced herself at one point and seems to run a high-quality operation.
Definitely will be back, if you’re looking for a hidden gem tucked away that is affordable and not crowded, check Belle’s out for sure!

We hosted an engagement party at Belle’s and it was phenomenal! John and the entire team was so helpful with the menu planning and event layout. Food and service was amazing and we look forward to hosting more events here!
Mark Bruens
We go to Belle’s on Monday for trivia. It’s a lot of fun. Erin and her staff do an amazing job. It’s a three hour rush for them. But they always smile and take of us. Thanks Erin, Tonya, and Kris.

I recently hosted a bridal shower at Belle's and could not have been happier. The food and ambiance was terrific, but what made the day special was the service. From the guidance of the general manager John North, to Chefs Mo and Luis, to the bartenders and assistant managers Erin, Tonia and Chris, they were AMAZING. Thank you so much for making this event so memorable and seamless. I joined as a member and will be back for dinner soon.

New chef is amazing and really cares about improving the food. They have brought in a great staff and it’s great to see the old staff there. Everyone seems so happy and it’s great to see. Sunday brunch pictures here. Chicken n biscuits and eggs Benedict. Added the breakfast burger, which also comes with fries. It was delicious, but I didn’t even touch the fries. It was so much food. Maybe my new favorite thing on the menu.

We recently hosted a baby shower at the marina in the boaters lounge. The space was set up as discussed with the coordinator, during set up the front of the house manager for Belle’s, Amber was accommodating and available for any needs before and during the event. The brunch options chosen along with the eggs Benedict bar were delicious. Our guests enjoyed the atmosphere and private area available for the event. Would definitely recommend hosting an event here, especially for a more intimate baby shower.

The prime rib was amazing! Every dish was beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. Hands down, some of the best food we’ve had recently.

Belle's Bar & Grill, Safe Harbor, North Palm Beach is an wonderful place to dine or host an event. If you haven't been recently, you really should check it out. As of Fall 2024, it is under totally new management with Brian, and most importantly, a fabulous new Chef, Chef Mohammed. He has brought new life to a restaurant that is in a beautiful location on the water at Safe Harbor, but wasn't living up to it's potential. I hosted an event at Belle's this Christmas Season (2024) for our Ladies Golf Association and they absolutely hit it out of the park. Allyson Carrancejie was beyond helpful with all the catering choices. The food was delicious and plentiful. The presentation of the food was lovely. The Crostini with Fig & Goat Cheese was AMAZING, as was the Turkey Bolognese, Meatballs, Nashville Chicken Sliders, Flatbreads and everything else. For the grand finale the Chocolate Pie was to die for! The service the entire evening was wonderful with attentive servers, especially Bryan and Erin. Thank you Belle's for a wonderful event! We'll definitely be back next year.

The first time we had dinner at Belle's, it was great. That was six months ago. We have been going once a week since then, and it's rapidly going downhill at a consistently bad pace.
It must come from the top. It is not due to the onsite staff, as they are all amazing and go above and beyond. Brian is awesome - he even remembers our drink orders (there are 4-6 of us on any week) and goes above and beyond to accommodate us throughout the evening. Steve is the best Trivia DJ (tied with Dustin from Kirby's)! Susie is wonderful as well, always running around trying to make the bar and restaurant the best it can be.
Owner/management must not be supporting this establishment with what it needs to be the impeccable dining experience it can be. Most food items are terrible. The fish is always overcooked. We've all tried the nachos at varying times and they were not edible (the beef and chicken were awful). The steaks are not good quality either. For a restaurant in a community such as Old Port Cove, this is a complete disconnect.
The flatbreads are good but they just took the best ones off of the menu - why?? The burger is excellent. The salads are good, but do not come as listed on the menu. They are either out of the salad dressing, or the crab is replaced with shrimp, etc.
There is no consideration for food allergies or sensitivities. We eat at a lot of restaurants in Palm Beach County and as a gluten intolerant person we always have food options. There are not many options for gluten insensitivity at Belle's, and there's no reason for it. They can easily and inexpensively use the same ingredients that aren't allergy prone. Even their French fries are the same ones that cheap sports bars use with breading on them. The better restaurants are coating them with corn starch to make them crispy and tasty. It's as if the management doesn't understand F&B concepts at all.
This place has such potential and fantastic staff members. I hope it can improve quickly.
