This is good food with a nice, varied menu but the vibe and scenery enhances all aspects of the evening. All seating is outside and tucked in between tick trees and foliage but you can still watch the boats pass as you eat. You at literally on the waterway. Alligator bites, seafood dip were excellent starters. A fresh grouper coated in macadamia coconut crust with a tropical salsa- yum. Also the fresh flounder was a hit. Desserts are good and not just the standard afterthought. This will Make for a great, relaxed evening with good food. Most definitely would return.

This is definitely a must-visit while in Jupiter for the atmosphere alone. Guanabanas is a gorgeous waterfront bar with tons of tropical plants that gives it a lush jungle vibe. For drinks and fun you absolutely cannot go wrong, and they keep the calendar packed with live music and events. Unfortunately food was just so-so (which is to be expected at a place like this). We tried the fried shrimp and chicken nachos, and while they weren't bad they also just weren't that good (if that makes sense). My kids quesadillas also came with rice which was super hard. I'd definitely come back again for some drinks and would probably just eat elsewhere.

Beautiful spot for a Sunday brunch! We stopped by with friends, grabbed some drinks and wonderful seafood/salads in a lush/tropical setting. Upon arrival it was drizzling just a bit, and the complimentary valet parking is a nice touch. Once inside, we got a beautiful table right at the waterfront, and enjoyed wonderful views and great food in a relaxing environment. While the fish tacos were good, the freshly prepared seafood filet looked like the star of the meal. We took a walk around the entire restaurant after we ate, and saw all of the beautiful areas that they've designed to enhance the dining experience. If you're in the Jupiter area, this is a place you have to see and enjoy, since words alone do not do it justice. With excellent service, great food and beautiful scenery, I highly recommend Guanabanas.

5 stars for the atmosphere and location on the water. There were a lot of people in the bar area, both seated and standing. The bartender was great - fast and capable of handling multiple orders at one time. They have a good selection of cocktails and beers on tap. Not all drinks are on the happy hour menu, but those that are, are ample and tasty. We had the mojito and coconut something. They don't take reservations. Upon arrival, we checked in with the hostess and were given a buzzer. The wait for 2 seemed longer than for tables of 5, about 40 minutes at around 5pm on a Friday. We took our drinks and sat in the chairs out front while waiting for a table. I didn't realize until later that they have chairs in back with a view of the water where we could have waited. Because the weather was so good, sitting outside under the sails with the lush greenery and a great view was comfortable and a great experience. We started with the shrimp cocktail appetizer. The shrimp cocktail contained 6 large crisp shrimp, but the cocktail sauce was a little too heavy on the horseradish. They offered several types of fresh market fish. The coconut macademia crusted fish was very good, but the coating was so fine it just seemed like light breading. It came with fresh string beans (that weren't all trimmed). The shrimp in the tequila lime shrimp were smaller than the those in the shrimp cocktail, but there were plenty of them. It was also a little spicy. It came with really good ripe plantains. Both dishes came with rice and black beans. There is a free parking lot a block east.

The view was beautiful on that nice day! The service was great. Our waiter kept checking on us and was very knowledgeable! The food was AMAZING! A little pricey but you get what you pay for

Guanabanas is such a fun spot for a bite and drinks. My husband and I stopped by on a Thursday evening. There was trivia going on in one area of the restaurant for interested patrons. Very fun! We were told there would be a bit of a wait before we were seated so we grabbed some drinks from the bar and walked along the waterfront--it made our short wait seem to fly by. We enjoyed our meal and service as well. Great spot to visit!

Blackened Fresh Catch Sandwich

We brought the dads here for Father's Day dinner and we were seated right away and on the water!! Our waitress very accommodating with our request for a custom blackened fish sandwich for all of us. Had a wonderful dinner! We will be back!

Exactly what I want when I think "waterfront casual dining." Great service that was quick and attentive. Boats can dock and there are plenty of spots to hang out. We got drinks, apps and shared an entree. I don't live nearby, but I would make sure to come back here on a future trip to Jupiter.

Tequila lime shrimp
Jessie G.

Returning after a few years. Food was delicious! Had the Tequila Lime Shrimp which was tasty and delicious. Hubby had the Tiki burger which was well cooked and tasty. He wasn't a fan of the bun though. Yucca fries with the dipping sauce were impeccable! Great music, great ambiance.

Parking was easy, there's a pubic parking lot a walking distance away from the restaurant which I prefer, but if you want to park close, they have valet parking too. Upon entering, there were signs indicating where I should walk towards. The hostess was nice and sat me quickly. My server was Lauren, and she was awesome, very attentive, kind, and helpful. Food came out quickly. I ordered the catfish sandwich and the clam chowder, which was the first time I've ever tried clam chowder. The sandwich was tasty. The catfish was soft with topped with banana peppers. Clam chowder was delicious soft, chunky, and flavorful. I would recommend!

We have some dear friends who live in Jupiter and they brought us here for lunch today. I am so glad they did because it was a fantastic experience. The ambiance is outstanding along the water with all of the beautiful landscaping, bamboo and banyan trees. There are also several huge tiki huts which provide good cover from the sun or rain while dining outside. We started with a coconut mojito, margarita and bloody Mary. The menu offers both brunch and lunch items. Our party had the grilled steak salad, blackened fish with rice and beans and plantains, blackened fish tacos, and a Reuben omelette. We all loved our choices. Service was quick, friendly and helpful. If you get the chance to visit this restaurant I highly recommend it. You can even get to it by boat.

Dining on the water tonight at Guanabanas. Valet is always readily available and recommended. I always stop here at least once on my trip to Jupiter. We came around 4:30 and had to wait for about 15 min for a table on the water. We got a buzzer and sat down on the deck. When we got seated we got our drink orders right away and put our entrees in too. Service was good and food came out quickly. They ran out of coconut rum. They also don't offer Moscow mules in copper cups which I find odd. I got the A1A Lemonade. I got the avocado mango salad which is what I always get and so did the rest of my party. It is presented beautifully and tastes just as good. I finished with the chocolate brownie cake. Very rich but good. We had to wait a long time to get our check. This is a must try if you're in the area!!!

Hawaiian shrimp and chicken
Valentina N.

Visited for the first time and was very pleased with my experience. The setting from the outside to what you walk into is a total 180. From a busy road to a tropical oasis, the waterfront vibes, decor and great attitude from staff make this a fun and vibrant experience. We ordered their spicy shrimp bites to start, playa bowl and Hawaiian shrimp combo. The food was fantastic, fresh and flavorful with fair portions. Our wait staff was attentive and friendly all throughout. Overall, this is for sure a must visit spot!

Ask the Community - Guanabanas

What are the gluten-free options?

Yes. Nachos, bbq shrimp. Not all fish are breaded. I do happy hour apps only, so no meal info. They will give you an allergy free meal if asked.

Are they dog friendly?

Last I knew, they did not allow dogs.

Do they have tables for larger parties?

Wouldn't this be a more appropriate question for the vendor?

Do they still do breakfast? I used to love their morning Arepas but I can't find a menu or mention of brunch anywhere since COVID has happened?

I do not believe they are doing anything early in the day as of yet. They do not open until 11:30 usually.

What is the entertainment schedule?

I'd call them there wasn't any when we were there for late lunch but it was raining

I see many reviews about long waiting times to be seated. Do they take reservations?

They do not. I waited maybe 45 minutes on a Sunday.

Is it hot or do they provide misting fans?

I do recall seeing some misting fans but not right over the tables. I didn't think it was hot at all but that would depend on the person.

Is smoking allowed outside?

I believe it is as most of the restaurant is outdoors. Worst case scenario is you could walk down to the docks and smoke if no allowed at the table.

Do staff wear masks?

Yes & The restaurant is outdoors, it's like a tiki hut on the water. But weekends, when it's busy, we are uncomfortable there were just too many people squeezed together especially near the bar and high tops.

Do they have Hookahs?

No, they do not.

When is their Happy hour?

Happy is 3 to 6 Monday through Friday with drink & appetizer specials

What is the deal on drinks during happy hour?

Sorry, I'm not a drinker!

Is it kid friendly?

Yes

What are the options for vegetarians?

Salad...

Does it get really hot to sit outside there for lunch in July?

Yes. They have fans in select areas and umbrellas but yes it's going to be hot.

Ambiance: very pretty setting. Casual and somewhat intimate…read more Service: excellent Food: very unique chef, creative cooking, tasty dishes. Sort of farm to table. Very tasty choices but personally my opinion is portions are small. Worth the time and effort to visit.

The Hungry Poet is back baby!! (I love being Yelp Elite…read more I've just been busy!) "The Salty Zebra blew me away, The Black Grouper entree made my entire day. The burger was seasoned and the patty was fat, But those home made desserts....whooo that's where it's at!" This meal/dining experience brought me to Yelp immediately. I was excited y'all! The Salty Zebra (picked it b/c of good reviews and proximity to Barnes and Noble in Tequesta) They cover the basics extremely well: greeted with kindness and professionalism, seated promptly, and approached immediately by a wonderful server. I won't spend time here just know you will not be disappointed with the service and it was beyond pleasant. Apps Burgundy Escargot (Pernod Garlic-Parsley Butter) We asked for a recommendation from the appetizer section of their menu (perfect amount of selections by the way...I despise an encyclopedic menu). We were thinking escargot and we were so pleased that it was recommended...that sealed the deal. It was garlicky and buttery and served with the perfect white bread. Spot on. Entrees were freaking fantastic! Florida Black Grouper (Creamed Kai Kai Farms Mustard Greens, Colab Farms Glazed Carrots, Carrot Marmalade) I never order grouper. I go out of my way to order it because I don't enjoy white fish usually. Something spoke to my spirit (plus our amazing server highly recommended it) and I went against my natural inclination. Lawd have mercy I'm glad I did. That grouper was perfectly seared, flaky, flavorful and completed excellently by the mustard greens and carrots. I do t know what the sauce was in the plate but it was savory a bit earthy in the best possible way with a twinge of sweetness that made me want to lick the plate ‍ (hey I'm from Mississippi...we do that ). Needless to say there wasn't a morsel of food left in my plate. Other reviews complained about small portions. I beg to differ it was a perfect portion, and I have a biiiiig appetite. (I am the hungry poet after all! I enjoy experiencing three full courses and not being miserably full by dessert.) Bistro Burger (1/2 LB CBS Blend, Gruyere, Sweet & Sour Onions, Au Poivre Sauce, Parmesan Potato Wedges) Boyfriend got the burger. It was great--I am well loved so I got the first bite lol Patty was thick and moist and seasoned! I was impressed that they didn't stay away from seasoning with this burger. We suspect it could have even been prepared sous vide then seared because of how evenly cooked it was. Our server was even kind enough to bring ketchup for the potato wedges. Dessert LET ME FIRST SAY: the second dessert (chef's special) was complementary. I don't know why? Good karma maybe? Speaking of the chef... Chef Michael was working that dining room. ‍ He walked by our table and asked if everything was okay. Not realizing he was the chef we asked for a little more bread to sop up the escargot butter. He brought the bread out a few minutes later himself and was super polite. He introduced himself and I was impressed that he was so personable. He stopped by two more times to check on our entrees and desserts. I love an involved chef. I have a couple friends who are Executive Chefs in pretty swanky places and I love to see that bar being met. Especially as a Yelp Elite reviewer. You know how most people can't wait to write reviews when they're pissed. I can't wait to write reviews when my socks are knocked off. Back to dessert... Chocolate banana I love banana desserts. Some might be biased but this dessert was oooooooh wee deliciously special. I don't have the description because I think desserts change weekly/daily etc but trust me... GET IT! If you like bananas chocolate and caramel get it! Homemade S'more When I said made in house I mean it! The marshmallow the graham cracker all of it! It was rich and decadent and it blew me away. I'll be thinking about these desserts for a while. And again I don't t know what we did to get a free one but Chef Michael brought both out himself and I felt the "we go the extra mile" vibe. It was crystal clear. Sounds like I'm using hyperbole but I swear I'm not. Decor and ambiance was beautiful. Wasn't loud at all. Hands down a perfect dinner experience. We had been walking in the hot sun all day after this impromptu trip to Stuart and even in leggings and a T-shirt we felt comfy and welcomed. Thanks another review giving it to you straight no chaser from The Hungry Poet aka Elizabeth S. aka Lizz . Enjoy!

My snapper was good! It lacked flavor a little but once i added some salt and pepper to it. It was way better. The salad on top added some acidity to it and it came together really nicely. Drinks: I got the lychee lagoon. And it was soooo goooood! Def getting that again. Price: My total was $71 and price was great!

She got the Korean BBQ short rib tacos and I got the crispy hogfish tacos, both were excellent. Honestly the portions were generous enough that we could have shared just one order between us, but we were celebrating so we went a little overboard. Ended up taking half of everything home, which was a nice bonus. Other people at the table got the pecan crusted salmon and the steak tips topped with lump crab, and both looked fantastic. Loved that they offer a range of sides too, from french fries to rice and beans to their signature crispy Tiki potato casserole, which was one of the best bites of the night. Service was great, our waitress was attentive and on top of everything all night. The atmosphere is unbeatable, sitting right on the water with such a great vibe. It was surprisingly crowded for a Monday night, which says a lot. Would definitely go back.

A big thatched roof protected everyone from sun and rain. There were plenty of tables in the sand, as well as in the hut. Our server, Ellie, was delightful. She made good suggestions, handled special requests perfectly and made sure that we had everything we needed throughout the evening. Most bands playing at pubs and bars share one trait - they are always WAY too loud. Not the Samantha Russell Band. She has a powerhouse voice and her band were really good (albeit just a bit loud). The food was surprisingly good. The "special" pulled pork bowl was big and flavorful. The Caribbean Salad with Shrimp was fresh and tasty, lightly dressed with a nice portion of grilled shrimp. My Sweet Cajun Chicken Sandwich was outstanding. The mild barbecue sauce balanced the Cajun seasonings, the chicken was perfectly cooked and the Pretzel Bun just right. The drinks were nice; the Island Time was flavorful and the Whole Lotta Rum Bucket massive(and refreshing). Oversell we had a great time and will be back.

Great spot for a meal outside on the water! Went to lunch with some friends and everyone enjoyed…read moretheir meals - my pulled pork has a really nice pineapple slaw on it that I've never had before and it elevated the yum level for me. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu ... that's always a plus. If you want a cheeseburger (or anything else) in paradise, this is your spot.
