Fern - West Palm Beach (FL)

4 /5 Drew M: Visited this restaurant on a Tuesday night in November and was promptly greeted and seated on the patio. The outdoor ambiance alone is worth the visit—relaxed, charming, and a great setting for dinner. Service, however, was inconsistent. It took quite a while before our server came by to take our drink order, and after that initial interaction, we didn’t see her again. Thankfully, another waiter, Brandon, noticed we were unattended and stepped in to take care of us. His attentiveness was appreciated. We ordered two cocktails (Broomhilda’s Bees and the Red Sun Sour), the squash blossoms, and the linguine entrée. The cocktails were excellent—clearly crafted by someone who knows what they’re doing behind the bar. The squash blossoms were flavorful, though the edible flower garnish felt a bit unnecessary. The real standout of the evening was the linguine with braised Florida wagyu, truffle cream, and mushroom conserva. While the presentation wasn’t the most eye-catching, the taste was phenomenal. The truffle cream added just the right amount of salt and richness, making this dish easily the highlight of the meal. Again, the edible flower garnish wasn’t needed—the dish shines on its own. Would I return? For the service, probably not. But for that linguine entrée? Absolutely.

5 /5 Melina Alessi: Wow! We dined here for dinner and so thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the experience! We were greeted by welcoming staff and seated in the most dreamy outdoor courtyard. Then we met our server, Isabella, who was WONDERFUL! She was knowledgeable about every detail of the menu and helped guide us with her suggestions. We loved that the menu is sourced from local farms and some of our dishes were prepared in beef tallow- my husband’s fave! Every dish we enjoyed was created with so much flavor and care! The squash blossoms and pork belly burnt ends are fantastic starters- we’d highly recommend. The picanha and short rib were cooked to perfection! Mushrooms and Lolla Rosa salad made great additions as sides. Craft cocktails were also delish! We will be back!! Thanks Isabella!!

5 /5 Ana Tomasino McGough: FERN Restaurant is truly a shining gem in West Palm Beach. Chef Eddie, along with Rossa and Cody, created an unforgettable dining experience that was both simple yet refined. Their commitment to true “farm-to-table” cuisine of sourcing everything from local farms, ranches, and reserves truly shines through in every bite. The four mushroom dish was outstanding, followed by a deliciously seasoned swordfish with risotto. Also the jalapeños stuffed with creamy goat cheese were a delight, plus the vibrant packed arugula salad with pistachio and quinoa. Each plate told its own story of freshness, color and balance. To top it off, the “Rancher’s Remedy” mocktail was spectacular with a bold blend of ginger, turmeric, orange, honey, cayenne pepper, and bee pollen. It captured the restaurant’s spirit of creativity and wellness. FERN isn’t just a meal to share with family and friends but a lovely quality adventure. The Kitchen has an open layout and you can see the unique dishes being created. A must-visit in West Palm Beach on Fern Street!

5 /5 John Zavolas: Fern Street Wine Bar in West Palm is an absolute gem and delivers a truly elevated dining experience without feeling pretentious. The atmosphere is intimate and stylish, making it perfect for a date night or a relaxed evening with friends. The wine selection is thoughtfully curated, with great options by the glass that pair beautifully with the food. Every dish that came out was not only visually stunning but packed with flavor — from the oysters with a perfectly crisp topping, to the creative small bites layered with fresh herbs, microgreens, and bright, balanced sauces. You can tell a lot of care goes into both presentation and execution. The highlights continued with heartier plates, including a beautifully cooked steak served over a silky purée and a vibrant, flavor-forward fried rice dish loaded with vegetables and texture. Fern Street Wine Bar is the kind of place you leave already planning your next visit — an easy recommendation for anyone looking for exceptional food, great wine, and a fantastic vibe in West Palm.
