Miami's own Top Chef winner Jeremy Ford has gone north for his latest restaurant, the Butcher's Club.

North Palm Beach, FL 33408
Enjoy a guilt-free feast at this sprawling spot with lots of outdoor seating, where food is lower in salt and nothing is fried or cooked in butter. Start with one of the thin, crispy flatbreads — goat cheese and mushroom is a favorite — or a salad like the Namaste, filled with raw and sprouting produce. Move on to a burger with fig-braised onions; mushroom and artichoke paella; or spice-seared tuna on coconut brown rice with black-eyed peas. Leave room for an array of vegan ice-creams. Spacious outdoor seating is poolside.

229 Royal Poinciana Way
Palm Beach, FL 33480
The latest restaurant from the Breakers hotel is on trend with nostalgia offerings, and there is an emphasis is on comfort food. Classics include butter crumb Dover sole; chicken pot pie; and beef Wellington, and a section for "hand helds'' includes a Cuban sandwich. Salads can be topped with a range of proteins including steak, shrimp, chicken, salmon, and lobster, while avocado fries with sweet and spicy chili crema are a textural sensation.

Palm Beach, FL 33480
A cornerstone of Royal Poinciana Plaza, this offshoot of the legendary New York and Hamptons restaurant has a design inspired by Italy's midcentury grand cafes.

288 S County Rd
Palm Beach, FL 33480
The quintessential Upper East Side bistro has been recreated on Palm Beach island and even its charming owner Jean DeNoyer, along with many of his regular patrons, have made the journey south. In addition to cushy leather banquettes, frosted glass, and wood paneling, the legendary onion soup dripping with gruyere and provolone; beef and tuna tartares; mussels with curry, coconut, and lemongrass; and roast chicken enhanced by tarragon are also now in Palm Beach. Though the island tends to be quiet after 10 p.m., there is often a line for tables here as late as 9:30 p.m.

245a Worth Ave
Palm Beach, FL 33480
Vegan roasted cauliflower and calamari atop a squid ink risotto cake are among the new additions at Philippe Delgrange's artfully appointed boite in a secluded spot off Worth Avenue (don't worry, the Cajun chicken is still on the menu). Breakfast has just been added and is already a scene, with Soul Cyclers enjoying omelets with roost, next to European businessmen. A Provence-inspired private room on the second floor is now open for more intimate occasions.

155 Hammon Ave
Palm Beach, FL 33480
Trivia nights on Monday have become a social hub at the resurrected New York gathering spot that co-opted the Colony Hotel's pool area. Don't miss the vadouvan curry and basmati rice; and of course it wouldn't be Swifty's without crab cakes, meatloaf, and chicken hash.

1700 S Dixie Hwy
West Palm Beach, FL 33401
A stylish room with a pretty veranda offers up global cuisine ranging from ginger-glazed calamari, to zucchini pasta with heirloom tomatoes and basil pesto, to sous vide double cut pork chops with apple bourbon chutney.

6316 S Dixie Hwy
West Palm Beach, FL 33405

Pastas include ravioli stuffed with Maine lobster meat and no bread; and fettuccine with an all veal Bolognese. The impressive wine list has repeatedly garnered Wine Spectator's Grand award.

2800 S Ocean Blvd
Palm Beach, FL 33480
The first U.S. venture of Mauro Colagreco, whose restaurants have earned three Michelin stars, is located beachfront at the Four Seasons Hotel and is a go-to for those who love ingredient-driven, Mediterranean cuisine. Dishes such as salt-crusted dorade cooked in the stone hearth oven with Meyer lemon, smoked tomato, and shellfish sauce are a perfect product of the current live fire craze; while cauliflower in the tandoori oven served accompanied by yogurt, cauliflower puree, and buckwheat melts in your mouth. Duck with chartreuse and grated polenta is another winner, and don't miss the floating island dessert. Even cocktails are made with herbs from the hotel's gardens.

253 SE 5th Ave
Delray Beach, FL 33483

Boca Raton, FL 33432

101 Plaza Real S
Boca Raton, FL 33432
It's pure theater at this clubby but romantic spot with dim lighting, leather booths, and bountiful portions of meats and crustaceans. Start with the signature — lightly fried chunks of lobster tail served with Greek honey and mustard aioli — or crab cakes with barely any filler. Move on to bone-in veal ribeye; or, if money is no object, the A-5 Miyazaki wagyu, or kobe.

900 S Ocean Blvd
Boca Raton, FL 33432
There are very few oceanfront restaurants in Boca Raton, and this one, curated by Colin Cowie, sits within feet of the sand. It opened last year but really hit its stride this season, serving up Instagram-worthy tagines filled with seafood paella or braised veal shank with root vegetables, barley and mint; local pompano; and lasagna made with braised lamb. Don't miss the mezzo such as labneh and roasted honey nut squash served with artistically sliced crudite.
