2 Best Restaurants in Palm Beach Gardens, Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast

Located in the PGA National Resort & Spa, this eatery draws guests, locals, and tourists alike eager for a taste of its upscale cuts of steak and Macallan cocktails. Opened in 2022 as part of a resort-wide renovation, the swanky 1950's style chophouse is headed up by Top Chef winner Jeremy Ford. Black-and-white-striped floors and wood-paneled walls signal a return to a bygone era, while creatively composed dishes capture Ford’s whimsical approach to food. Crudos are a favorite here, with compositions like local tuna with green chili buttermilk yogurt and sugar snaps. The black truffle jalapeño poppers are a decadent treat. The selection of "Royal Cuts" includes a smoked rib eye and a Wagyu filet mignon, all of which pair nicely with Ford's sauces, like beef fat Hollandaise, and luxurious sides of creamy, herbaceous spinach and a blue crab mac and cheese.

It's tucked away in a strip mall and has only 50 seats inside (counting the bar) and a handful out on the sidewalk, but everything down to the condiments is made in house here. Rabbit sausage and noodles or lamb meatball risotto are examples on the seasonal one-page menus the chef puts together daily. When there's fish on the menu from local waters, go for it. At the open kitchen in the warm, modern space, you can banter with the chefs if you sit at the bar.
