    Awesome staff!!!
    Kenza

    An extraordinary night at Kyma My big Greek family came in indecisive and all over the place on where to sit -- and the staff handled it with patience, thank you! Not once did we feel like a problem. We were treated like real guests from the start. The food was INCREDIBLE -- not a single miss. Every plate came out better than the last. They even went out of their way to put the WORLD CUP on for us in the dining room -- small thing, matter! The whole experience: the FOOD , the STAFF , the AMBIANCE , and the VENUE itself . It's rare a place gets everything right. You can pick your vibe -- quiet intimate corners, high-energy bar energy, beautiful indoor dining, or rooftop/outdoor seating. Whatever night you're having, it fits. Huge thank you to our server and the management team for taking care of us the way you did -- we won't forget you! We left full, happy, and drunk -- looking forward to coming back!

    I was invited here for a MRI company marketing event. I parked in the banyan garage close by. Upon arrival the hostess walked us to the elevator to get to the rooftop where our event and another one was taking place. Amazing views of the city. The tuna tacos were delicious and the lychee martini was refreshing strong. The lobster roll was delightful and watermelon shots were a healthy libation. I would definitely come back here for the vibe.

    Beautiful restaurant but the food was a disappointment. My "medium" steak was practically well done and not at all tender. The pita was good and the dips adequate but nothing I can't get at the middle eastern bakery down the street. Fish was ok but not something I would specifically go back for. Also a very tiny portion of fish.

    Great food, but unprofessional management. Regardless of my poor experience in the beginning, the food was very good. The Octopus and the Lobster Pasta were both fantastic. The Lobster Pasta had a great amount of lobster unlike many other restaurants.

    Kyma in West Palm Beach was absolutely incredible. The outdoor dining atmosphere is one of the best in the area -- beautiful, lively, and perfectly designed for a great night out. The space feels elegant but relaxed, with a gorgeous open-air setting that makes the whole experience special. The food was outstanding. The octopus was easily the best I've ever had -- perfectly grilled, tender, and packed with flavor. The halloumi was unbelievable as well, crispy on the outside with that amazing salty, creamy texture inside. Every dish we ordered was fresh, vibrant, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. Incredible service too. Between the amazing food, beautiful presentation, and the stunning outdoor ambiance, Kyma delivers a top-tier dining experience. If you're in West Palm Beach, this place is a must. We will definitely be back.

    Had a great experience at kyma . Had been to the one in roslyn, New York . The food was delicious. Great ambience. Rooftop bar was closed because it was too cold unfortunately but the main restaurant was just as nice . It was a weekend so they have a DJ and do the sparklers. Great vibe ! Avgolemono soup what's the best I've ever had other than in Greece . The shrimp Santorini was also delicious. They leave the shrimp pad on for more flavor. The sauce had a brandy taste to it on the orzo. Would definitely order that again. Lemon potatoes were also delicious. They give you free pita and hummus to start the meal, which was a nice touch. Drinks were on point and great service

    Luckily for us the weather was amazing on this evening and we were able to be comfortable on their patio which is the only seating option available during the week. On weekends the rooftop opens but from what the staff told me, it's pretty limited in how many people are allowed and it's a first come first serve basis. The service didn't scream amazing but didn't really interfere with the dining experience which was not as I had expected. The menu was pretty limited and while we were able to pick an appetizer and entree I didn't leave screaming "oh my God, I love this place". The setting is clean and open air and could possibly be similar to dining in a part of Greece but I have had better Greek food at a plaza restaurant. I would love to visit again but more for the rooftop experience! How did you enjoy you experience at Kyma?

    Kyma is at last in West Palm Beach! This NY Metro area transplant with two locations in Manhattan and one on Long Island's Gold Coast has finally arrived. Seafood and great time is the name of Kyma's game. They have what is the best rooftop in West Palm. Management and other staff are Meatpacking District veterans from Baumanche and Bagatelle fame, thus you know the rooftop parties will be epic. I had the pleasure of being the owner's guest at the friends and family soft opening. Typically, food and service tend to be off but not at Kyma. Everything ran like clockwork and the food was spectacular. Ryan (GM), Vanessa (never aging client experience coordinator) and front of house Jennifer made sure that guests felt like they were the most important people in the room. Food was spot on from classics to new renditions of age old staples. Sound system promises for crystal clear elation into the stratosphere and the DJ's belong on Mykonos, Ibiza and the Hamptons. I returned for a small party of 16 at the "parea" room and table. Fish, steak and chicken were on the menu as was their amazing Greek village salad, octopus and amazingly tasteful spread to accompany their pitas. Food aside, there are now a couple of great Greek restaurants in downtown West Palm Beach. The primary differences between Kyma and the other restaurant is that Kyma's vibe is young, boisterous and loads of fun with a price-point commensurate with the ultra quality of their food and service; whereas at the other one, don't show-up if your boxer shorts haven't been starched by your dry cleaner and nor rolling up in a jalopy to dine without your own personal fully loaded with 100s Brinks truck in tow.

    We had a mixed experience at Kyma. The food was good, especially the branzino, and the space itself is beautiful. Unfortunately, the atmosphere shifted to a full club vibe much too early. With a 7:00 pm reservation, we were not expecting the lights to go down and the music to be turned up to the point where it was difficult to hear our table before 10:00 pm. Service was very slow. We were there for over three hours and had to track down our server just to pay the bill. Since valet is $15 for the first two hours and increases significantly after that, the slow pacing resulted in a $32 valet charge. They had also run out of the wine we were drinking and one of the sides we wanted to order, and one of our appetizers never came out. Kyma has a lot of potential, but better service pacing and a later transition to the club-style atmosphere would make a big difference.

    There were 4 of us, and we shared all the dishes we ordered and all were different and excellent. We were given complementary pita bread with fava bean dip that was incredibly tasty. Kyma Chips Crispy Sliced Zucchini & Eggplant Tzatziki: unique dish, beautiful, so delicious Shrimp Skewers *GF Grilled Jumbo Shrimp Roasted Garlic, Ladolemono: 6 large shrimp on 2 skewers with a wonderful garlic/ lemon/ olive oil marinade Soutzoukakia Mediterranean Spiced Beef & Lamb Baked in Tomato Sauce: mediterranean meatballs. Tasty!! Almost all the dishes come with sliced lemons that you can squeeze over the dish to add zest. Roasted Beets *GF Mixed Greens, Manouri Cheese Orange, Walnuts: easily shareable between the 4 of us with orange & red beets, all the ingredients come together so well, the cheese is milder than feta. We all loved it. Lamb chops: four good size lamb chops that we ordered medium rare. We asked for extra tzatziki sauce on the side. Excellent. Wanted to order the Portokalopita, orange cake with carmalizef orange slices on top but we were just too full. Service: Outstanding service! Julianna was our server and she was great. Attentive but not overly so. She knew the menu well. There were several people helping bring the dishes we ordered, clear away dishes, filling our water glasses. Service is notably excellent. Ambiance- it's an indoor/outdoor restaurant. We had an early reservation so all the tables were open. We sat in the main dining room. Beautiful tasteful decorations. Perfect night to be in this setting. Nice music. Not too loud but a lively place!

    Why I'll go back: delicious, but also approachable Greek food You HAVE to order: the Sunshine State Harvest cocktail Tony's Tip: the left side of the restaurant is more elegant Kyma is a nice addition to the Palm Beach area. We have plenty of places to do Greek/Mediterranean, but many are short on ambience (well, trendy ambience). Milos opened a year ago in West Palm, but that's also a whole show you gotta be up for. Kyma wedges its way into the gap, with an upscale and trendy, but less formal scene while still bringing a nice range of menu items. They've got all your favorites - Greek salad, Dolmades, zucchini chips, grilled octopus, plenty of fish - and lots more. Having only been open a couple of weeks, when we showed up just before 7:00 p.m. on a Wednesday the nicer dining area to the left was already full. We were seated to the right, at a table adjacent to the bar area. Fine, but just less elegant. Speaking of the bar, there were always at least a couple of seats available during the entire time we were there, and it appears first come, first served. It's bright and the counter is spacious, so I think having dinner there would be comfortable (see pics). Since Kyma is really more outside than inside, that helps keep noise levels comfortable. The music was cool but lingered in the background. An indoor dining area across the alleyway was set for dinner, but no one was eating there. It's elegant and good for overflow or on a cold/rainy evening. We opened with cocktails - my wife her usual margarita straight up, which she liked. I often go with a house concoction and discovered what might be my favorite drink in all of Palm Beach. Called Sunshine State Harves, it's rum-based, with some dry vermouth, frangelico, and a cinnamon-cardamon tincture/extract. Absolutely delicious, with a scent to match. I think I've been overlooking rum as a base liquor. Gonna have to correct that. ;) We ordered four items: the Greek salad, Kyma zucchini chips, Soutzoukakia (spiced beef and lamb meatballs in tomato sauce), and the free-range chicken (accompanied by a side of roasted lemon potatoes). We only got three of those, as the Greek salad got lost in the shuffle. But when the chicken arrived, we just told our server to cancel the salad, as we had plenty of food in front of us. The meatballs were tender and the sauce jazzed it up a bit. Zucchini chips were addicting - lightly breaded (vs. overly breaded and fried) and the tzatziki was far from bland and a nice complement. Probably the best version of this simple dish I've had in years. As for the chicken, it was a pretty simple preparation. Came with lemon, but we thought it was a bit dried out. Not to be overlooked was the side of lemony potatoes. They were quite saturated in oil and butter and maybe closer to mashed potatoes in texture vs. harder boiled potatoes. Loved them, and they're available as a side dish. A must add to your dinner. Should mention that our waiter first brought me someone else's glass of red wine before going back to the bar and swapping it for my cocktail. Along with the salad, those were two glitches that shouldn't really happen, but we're pretty easygoing with that stuff. I'll also say that the prices here are pretty steep. If memory serves, the zucchini chips were $26 and the Greek salad was also well into the $20's. A number of other items had prices that made me do a double-take. Hey - it's a free market economy, so restaurants charge what they can. Just noting the premium prices given the "typical" Greek place is more affordable. We definitely thought Kyma was good and we'll be back, maybe when we've got something else going on downtown. We're also curious about the rooftop and hoping that opens to the public (and not just private events) at some point. tbh, I might just go out of my way to hit the bar for the Harvest cocktail again. Ugh - I'm craving it already...

I'm not here to diminish anyone else's experience, but rather to share my own honestly and constructively. Situations like this should serve as a learning opportunity for upper-level management, especially when the level of service and leadership falls below even basic expectations. We ordered a filet mignon that lacked the tenderness I would expect from a restaurant claiming this caliber of dining. We also ordered the salmon, which unfortunately had that unmistakable metallic, pungent flavor that immediately signals the fish is not fresh and should not be consumed further. We brought the issue to the attention of the manager, who acknowledged it initially but never returned to follow up. To their credit, the salmon was removed from the bill and an alternative dish was offered. However, the overall experience still fell far short of what should be expected at this price point and reputation level. What disappointed me most was not simply the food itself, but the complete lack of genuine hospitality and ownership from management. Strong restaurants understand that service recovery matters just as much as the meal. There's a reason establishments like The Capital Grille or Flagler Steakhouse have earned reputations for professionalism and customer care. Sometimes I genuinely think managers at places like this should spend time training in environments where hospitality is treated as an art form rather than an inconvenience. The following day, I was still disappointed enough to write this review. At a certain point, guests should not have to spend over $200 while simultaneously educating a restaurant on how to deliver proper service and quality control. With an abundance of superior restaurants nearby, this is not a place I would return to, even if offered a complimentary meal. Don't chance it.

The whole dining room was decorated modern yet classic, comfortable seats and high sense dining tables. From window seats, you can enjoy a fabulous ocean view. I do wish they would lighted up a bit more on waterfront sidewalk for a romantic night. I do have some suggestions: it would be great if the salad bowls were served cold. And, I think they should not put pork bacon inside the Bloody Mary since not everyone takes pork. It's just a little nod to respect. Overall, it was fantastic! Out of the world experience. We will definitely come back again with family and friends.

The oysters and side of bacon were my favorites of the table, both super yummy and I'd absolutely order those again. The truffle fries and short rib benedict were also good, just didn't stand out in a big way. And of course, mimosas... no notes there. Overall, a really lovely brunch spot if you're looking for great ambiance and a relaxing outdoor vibe. The food is good, the setting is even better, and it's definitely a place I'd come back and try something else!

    Buccan absolutely lived up to the hype. While in Palm Beach…read morefor a work meeting, my wife and I made it a point to dine at Buccan after seeing it consistently recommended on Yelp and by locals. After one meal here, it was easy to understand why it's considered one of the most sought-after restaurants in the area. The atmosphere is energetic and vibrant without feeling overly loud, and the service was polished, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the evening. The menu encourages sharing, which allowed us to sample a variety of dishes. We started with the lobster aquachile, which was incredibly fresh and beautifully presented. The lobster was tender, and the bright citrus flavors paired perfectly with the avocado and vegetables. It was a refreshing and memorable way to begin the meal. Next came the beef empanada and pork taco. The empanada was rich and flavorful with perfectly cooked beef and a crisp exterior, while the pork taco packed an impressive amount of flavor into a single bite. Both were excellent examples of why Buccan has developed such a strong reputation for its small plates. One of the highlights of the evening was the squid ink orecchiette. The pasta was perfectly cooked and coated in a rich, savory sauce that brought everything together. It was one of those dishes that makes you immediately start planning your next visit. For a larger plate, I ordered the prime beef burger, which was outstanding. The beef was juicy and flavorful, the toppings were balanced, and the fries were perfectly crisp. It may seem unusual to order a burger at one of Palm Beach's most acclaimed restaurants, but this one absolutely deserves the attention it receives. What impressed me most about Buccan was the consistency across every dish. Nothing felt like an afterthought. From the creative seafood dishes to the comfort-food favorites, every plate was executed with care and attention to detail. Palm Beach has no shortage of excellent dining options, but Buccan stands out as a restaurant that successfully combines creativity, quality ingredients, and flawless execution. If you're visiting the area, this is a reservation worth making well in advance. Recommended: Lobster Aquachile, Beef Empanada, Pork Taco, Squid Ink Orecchiette, Prime Beef Burger, and don't skip the fries. One of the best meals we had during our trip.

    I've visited every Chef Conley venue, including Stoke Barn. As of this writing,we are not…read moreconsidered stalkers, just normal people who love exceptional dining and service. I talk about the "curb-to-table" experience frequently. In my former role as a Delta Air Line Captain, I recognized the curb-to-plane challenges our customers encountered. Chef Conley has created a friendly and welcoming experience from curb-to-table. It starts with the complimentary valet. Finally. Finally. I learned about our regular valet: MANNY! Manny, thank you for the kindness and safe service you have given us. You are usually the first person who takes care of the Buccan Family. You create the smile before we walk in the doors of Buccan or Imoto. Thank you. Solang' (my spelling is probably wrong and I apologize): You are such a beautiful soul. Thank you for your kind words to Laura as we left. Kindness makes a difference. While kindness is free, sincerity is priceless. Wow, I haven't even chatted about the food. We tried something new this time. After our small plates, we tried the pork chop. The mild onion and sweet rhubarb---simply stunning. Even shared, we boxed some for home. I don't care if you are watching what you eat. Close your eyes! The chocolate cookies (warmed) are a must. Period. Selfishly, I hope Chef Clay never gets a tv show. A book deal is allowed. We want this local treasure and his team to remain anchored here. Clay and his team are own foodie treasure in our back yard. But wait, there's more: Honored to watch Chef Clay modestly expand the Miami environs. He will be opening his Buccan-Imoto-Buccan Sandwich Shop experience in Coral Gables sometime in June/July. OMG, we cannot wait for this to open. Though retired from the airlines (I miss my MIA overnights), we will make the trip to celebrate these new venues. However, we will do it very quietly. We do not wish to be labeled as stalkers. Probably one of my longest reviews. I love seeing hard working people succeed. What this team does for the community is simply breathtaking. This is a true success story. Thank you Buccan-Imoto-Grato-Sandwich Shop-Stokes Barn Team!!!!
