    We went to lighthouse diner and had the best hangover meal ever (LOL). Our server was the sweetest and was very attentive to the lots of coffee we had to drink. The ambiance was open and friendly. Definitely an inviting energy and we will be back soon!

    Large back room

    It's a diner- but a good one. Lots of choices on the menu. Everything looks good in breakfast sort of way. Smoked Salmon in-house. Good home fries. Good home made sausages. Good, friendly service. Clean layout and interesting old world art on the walls. The biggest issue is finding the place. Looks nothing special from outside really is rather special. Indoor seating goes into a large back room and outside seating available.

    Special breakfast of day: poached eggs over steak over yuca, served alongside home fries, with a verde sauce.

    I came here a few times in years past and remembered a large menu and a bar with vodka and oj. This morning, however, I had a very good early morning breakfast sans alcohol. It gets crowded for breakfast, especially on weekends, so 8:30 was a smart time to arrive. The four of us were seated immediately and got our menus and drink order taken. Our friendly server announced the two specials, and I chose one. It was steak with two poached eggs over yuca -- a version of eggs Benedict, only instead of Hollandaise it came with a verde sauce. We did not have to wait too long for our food. My sister in law was happy with her vegetable omelet and home fries (the home fries are cut as fat rectangles, as opposed to small chunks of potato). My brother loved his country breakfast hash, recommended by our server when he asked her opinion. It's two fried eggs, brisket hash, apples and chilis in a cast iron skillet. He said he enjoyed it more than he thought he would, and the apples added a great touch. Mine was very good. I requested the steak medium rare. The yuca I ignored as it didn't do it for me, but with home fries and rye toast I didn't need it. We left full and content. I drove half an hour from West Palm, but if I lived closer I'd definitely have a breakfast there once a month or so.

    In for Tuesday breakfast to meet up with some friends. Good spot, ample parking, nice menu with lots of options as well specials. Promptly seated - drink orders taken and the coffee was timely refilled Meals came out hot and no issues. Good friendly service oh and they have a bar seating area that's nice as well.

    While in town, I have been searching for good / different breakfast spots so decided to take a 30 min drive down south to check out the Lighthouse Diner. Diner? Was not honestly thinking diner food but I cannot believe the luck I found by stopping in and giving it a try based solely on other people's reviews. Situated across from Jupiter Island Colony south, at base of inlet and here you have the Lighthouse Diner. Walked in, a little busy and for good reason, sat at the bar and met my newest friend Kevin the bartender. NY grit and charisma, an awesome bartender / personality, I ordered their Bloody Mary (had to start the day off right of course)....I was on "cation"...met a lot of locals, non stop clientele. Extensive menu, friendly staff, cool old school diner feel, amazing food. I ordered the FGT Benedict, well, truly amazing. Two poached eggs over a green fried tomato topped with fresh arugula, bacon, and red pepper chow chow (pickled red pepper, not hot) with fresh fruit bowl. On my second Bloody Mary, I also ordered my usual coffee black and their insanely fresh squeezed orange juice. It was truly a culinary experience and cannot wait to go back. I think I found my new favorite spot that is worth the drive and all the hype.

    The Lighthouse Diner is a Jupiter landmark. Located on U.S. 1 and Beach Road across from the Jupiter Lighthouse, the Jupiter Diner opened in the early 1950's. It has been a popul.ar community gathering place and it had a long run of making memories until it closed in 2009. Thankfully the Jupiter Lighthouse was saved when it was purchased by three brothers from Queens, Ryan, Rich and Kevin Perez. At first they planned on leasing the building out. When they learned how much the Lighthouse Diner meant to Jupiter, the brothers with restaurant experience in NY decided to reopen the old diner in 2014. Their goal was to retain the nautical spirit of the previous diner while giving it an update. The original booths were reupholstered in grey with white stripes while the U-shaped counter was given more stools. Historical black-and-white photos of Jupiter are on the walls along with vintage TV show and movie posters. There are even picnic tables on the patio. The result is a refreshed diner with a retro feel. I stopped in for lunch but the Lighthouse Diner offers an all day breakfast. The menu features eggs benedict, breakfast specialties, omelettes, salads, sliders, melts, sausages, sandwiches, burgers, home cooked meals, sides, homemade pies, shakes, cocktails, craft brews, and fresh squeezed juice. They have $10 daily dine specials and they do catering. For lunch I ordered a classic BLT. Crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, ripe tomatoes and toasted bread is the ultimate comfort food. My sandwich was served was some excellent steak fries. Service was great and so was the food. I love the classic American diner vibe here. I'm so glad the Lighthouse Diner was brought back to delight a new generation of customers.

    Mimosa
    Giselle T.

    We came here with a few friends for brunch. The place has an old school diner vibe and it is pretty big inside with ample seating. Our server was quick and very nice. I had a mimosa which was strong and make with fresh squeezed OJ. Yum! I had a shrimp po boy which was delicious. Wish they hadn't ran out of hoagies. We shared the banana foster which was very good and not overly sweet. Overall a great place to grab a bite and everything in the menu is available all the time.

    Breakfast menu.

    We have been here a couple of times before but not recently. Went today for breakfast. Large dining area. Deceiving from outside. Sat right away. I ordered the lighthouse breakfast sandwich and it was amazing. Wife ordered scrambled eggs, bacon, toast. Everything was very good. Coffee service was a little weak. Would definitely return.

    Dont let the word diner fool you, the food here is delicious! Restaurant is huge. Service was great. Only complaint was the bathroom was disgusting like an old run down gas station that no one ever cleaned. One of the toilets were literally backed up

    Excellent breakfast well prepared.

    Went around 8:30 a.m. got the breakfast special with a drink $11 everything was wonderful sat at the bar Doreen took care of me who was very pleasant. After being at the ripper places in Jupiter I highly recommend going up a few miles cross over the bridge on US1 it's on the left if you go right you're going to Jupiter Island. It's was famous for Perry Como going there in years past. It's still very low profile.

    Fried tomato burger
    Allison K.

    Decided to go to this diner with my family before seeing a play at the Maltz Theater. It was close to the theater, so that made it a perfect choice. The place was really busy at lunchtime on the weekend, but they still got us a table pretty fast. The staff was friendly and outgoing. Our waitress was really nice, and had a good knowledge of the menu. The fried green tomatoes seemed to be a house specialty, so I decided to order the burger with the fried green tomato and a side of sweet potato fries (you could sub out the regular fries for sweet potato fries or tater tots for a small extra charge). My family got the fried tomato omelette and the steak sandwich. I wish we had gotten the fried green tomatoes appetizer, because the one on my burger was delicious! All the food came out pretty fast, and tasted great. The waitress was very attentive. The place had a "locals," feel that gave a very inviting atmosphere. The customers seemed to be happy, and enjoying their food. There were so many delicious items on the menu. I can't wait to come back to try some other items - though it will be a tough decision, because I would also be very happy to get my burger again. I would definitely recommend this place.

    Smokin Hash Omlette, cheese grits, and sourdough

    Hands down the best grits in the area, nice and creamy! The smokin hash omelette was tasty, the creole drizzle on top added a flavorful boost and if you like jam, you have to try their homemade jam! Server was very nice as well! I also enjoy the old style diner feel when eating there!

My wife ordered the Ham and Brie croissant sandwich with a side of potatoes and onions. There were two slivers of Brie on the sandwich but the ham was very good. The Potatoes and onions were her favorite part of the dish. Overall, the food was ok, service was excellent, but we are not likely to make the drive to come back.

Interesting system - and probably good to inform guests about this to avoid waiting for food for hours. In any case! It's really sold for a hotel restaurant and we enjoyed all of our meals here.

Service felt flat the entire time. I specifically asked for very light ice in my drink and even said I didn't care if the glass wasn't full. The drink still came out packed with ice, and I had to ask for a separate cup and spoon to fix it myself--which shouldn't happen. What really stood out was the lack of attention. We were there for about 35 minutes, and not once did she come back to check on us--no "How is everything?" and no offer for another drink. Meanwhile, she spent more time in the back talking with a coworker than actually servicing her customers. There was also confusion when we asked for the check, which just added to the overall disorganization. What's disappointing is that this place used to have a much better vibe--staff like Denise made it feel welcoming and enjoyable. That's clearly changed. The new staff just doesn't bring the same level of service or personality. The food and location still have potential, but service makes or breaks a place--and right now, it's missing.
