Took my kids here for a dinner and we loved it.
The staff was fab, the meal was delish, we sat outside so wasn’t too noisy and we overall liked it. Be sure to walk down the block after to get some ice cream lol

Cucina Palm Beach is a gem on Royal Poinciana Way—Italian-inspired vibes with a fun, upscale twist that makes it a Palm Beach standout. The food is a knockout: the Chopped Wedge salad is crisp and fresh, the Piccante Dolce pizza with its hot honey drizzle is a sweet-spicy revelation, and the Aussie Lamb Pappardelle melts in your mouth with rich, bold flavors. Calamari’s perfectly crispy too—honestly, it’s hard to pick a favorite. The atmosphere’s lively yet cozy, especially when the DJ kicks in after dinner, turning it into a late-night hotspot (it’s open till 1 a.m. most nights!). Staff like Alex and Grace are super attentive, making you feel like a VIP, though service can slow a bit when it’s packed. Prices are steep—entrees hover around $30-$50, and drinks aren’t cheap—but you’re paying for quality and the scene. Parking’s a challenge (valet or luck out on the street), and it’s not the spot for a quiet meal once the party starts. Still, for great food and a night out that feels uniquely Palm Beach, Cucina’s a winner—just book ahead and bring your wallet!

I have a medical condition so I needed some air while having only ONE drink on my hand at the same time by their patio. The manager called me out how the space is only for the guests for a “wedding”. So i went back outside by the security guy. Then he started picking fights with me. Then a big guy stepped up out of nowhere, threw away my drink forcefully out of my hands and banned me to reenter…. 💀
Denied entry? For doing what?

Wouldn't recommend choosing that as a place to go out. Also the bathroom attendent should be fired. Literally grabbed me when I came from the stall and tried to get a tip from me for doing nothing.

My husband and I had the BEST date night at Cucina! The staff was incredible, Barry and Daniel took such great care of us, our water glasses were never empty.
The ambiance was everything we hoped for: chic, romantic, and somehow still managed to have two TVs playing sports without compromising the vibe. I don’t know any other restaurant that can pull off such a perfect balance.
Now, the food: absolutely amazing. The cheese-filled, al dente giant ravioli blew our minds, the charred squid salad was a flawless balance of flavors, and the pizza (jalapeño and ricotta on a perfect tomato sauce) was simply out of this world. I was half done before realizing I didn’t take photos!
The music was just the right volume for conversation, and the wine selection was excellent. All in all, it was a fabulous night. We also heard about their monthly theme parties, which sound so fun~ we can’t wait to come back for one of those!

Absolutely one of the best places I’ve been too. Great atmosphere, food, service and music. Really loved their burger, was some of the best I’ve had in ages. I really noticed how much their bussers do and admire how hard they all work. Seems like they keep that place running, I hope they make well, they all need raises! My server Kevin provided great service and had many great suggestions, will definitely be back to see him soon. After dinner I ordered the Green textand it was amazing I believe Jacob was the bartender who made it, he was phenomenal. They know how to put on a great show too! The one bartender did some cool tricks while making the drinks was really impressive. I will definitely be back next time I’m in town!!

The food and atmosphere were exceptional. The staff was exceptionally willing to go over food and drink options while also recommending particular items they liked. Pauline was the best bartender I've ever had. She went above and beyond by recommending drinks and giving phenomenal food service. She deserves a raise.
