Love the new menu but portions are SO small. Would need to spend $300+ for two people to leave content. Drinks were creative and tasty but not much alcohol. I don't mind paying for quality food but portion sizes need to be fair.. I sent feedback directly to them after dining but no response. read more

Our first visit here - valet parking & reservation recommended. A beautiful view of the Jupiter lighthouse, ambiance is beautiful. We ordered the steak tartare as appetizer, prepared perfectly. Our entrees: Lobster Bucatini, grilled swordfish & bone-in pork chop. We shared them all & they were cooked to perfection. We couldn't resist dessert so ordered the Meyers lemon & carrot cake, both were delicious but the Meyer lemon was the best I have ever had. While it is a bit pricey, this is a special place for dinner that you will not soon forget! read more

It was our first time dining at The Beacon in Jupiter. Right across from the Jupiter lighthouse. The views were spectacular. The service is okay and the food was not up to the mark. It was taking a while for the food to come out. All three of my dishes were over cooked. Still worth a try if you are around the area. read more

We went for Mothers day Dinner around 6 pm. This is the only place on the inlet with open tables and no wait. First warning sign. We were greated by BO the manger and seated immediately. I ordered their Coconut Lobster Bisque and the Crab cake and my wife had the Spicy Lobster Rigatoni. Service was pleasant and professional. The Bisque was ok but why do they need to put chili oil in it? If you cannot cook with flavor hiding that by adding chili oil will not fix your plate. The Handmade Crab cake was not handmade. It was packed and perfectly round like a pressed burger. Not the light fluffy crab cake you would expect being handmade. Finally the Spicy Rigatoni was so tart. They went way overboard with some sort of citrus that spoiled the entire plate. They have the location, atmosphere and look, but the chief and menu reflect why they have open tables on mother's day when every business around it is on a wait. Would not go back. read more

Cynthia Rodriguez makes the best spicy marg!!!!!! And the tuna crispy rice was on point.

Are you kidding me? Over four hundred dollars for dinner for two? The food was good, but WAAAAAY overpriced. Beware of ANY restaurant that does post its prices! Will spend my money more wisely and NEVER return. read more

Excellent service. We were seated right away. We requested an outdoor table upon reservation but they were not able to accommodate Everything waale was 5/5 read more

The Beacon - Curious George (left) , Broadway sour (right) - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Jupiter, Florida

I have visited the Beacon twice in the past month to celebrate my wife and friend's birthday and mine. I can say without hesitation this is one of the best restaurant experiences I have had in the past five years in South Florida. Beacon offers inventive cocktails, delicious entrees, delectable desserts, and exemplary service in Jupiter across the water from the Jupiter Lighthouse. When you go to Beacon, the experience is world class from start to finish, starting with the gorgeous shell-shaped bread that is made from scratch. All the cocktails I have had on my two excursions to Beacon have been brilliant from the classy Vesper to the glorious Bullfighter. But my favorites so far have been the bourbon and rye fusion of the Concrete Jungle and the scotch and liqueur explosion of the Blood & Sand that includes curaçao, house-made vermouth, and blood orange. Additionally, they have a nice collection of spirits overall between the available Blanton's single barrel and orange limoncello. For starters, you can't go wrong with their cold-water oysters, Stracchiatella cheese, or the charred Spanish octopus. The cheese is served with amazing toasted bread, while the octopus is grilled to perfection and served with smoked potato, treviso, and black garlic. The oysters were so savory, clean, and fresh that you could eat several of them without taking a breath. For main courses, their pasta dishes are supreme, with the standouts being the Agnolotti Coniglio, stuffed with glorious rabbit and served with a rich cream sauce, and the Paccheri con escargot was a savory paradise of goodness with the saffron hollandaise sauce. If you have someone to split this, order a side of crispy fingerling potatoes with garlic aioli; it is the world. I have had the privilege of trying three of the four desserts that Beacon currently has available. My favorite of the three is the chocolate bombe, but you could do just as well with the tiramwoo or the deconstructs Meyer lemon tart. Each are exquisitely made like a work of art that you could stare at before devouring, before washing down with an espresso martini. Beacon is special. We will return for more culinary adventures as this place is a masterclass of excellence. read more

Sat on the balcony with a great view of the water Food was well priced and good Service was service, nothing notable but no complaints really HATE handheld devices for ordering ESPECIALLY when tipping - for 2 people and a nearly $300 dinner - paying and tipping from a device the waiter is holding is ICKY / really rubs me the wrong way no real reason to return read more

Love the new menu! Enjoyed the Tuna Veracruz. We will be back again soon. Bo is the best!

I tried to call the manager before posting. Charlie or Joe would have been mortified if they witnessed this scene (after a wonderful Easter/Birthday meal for 11 with an excellent server). We went to our Vespa scooter to leave and found it blocked in intentionally tight on all 4 sides with valeted vehicles. We had parked in a striped off pedestrian walk way as not to take up a proper space. My girlfriend hailed one of the valet parkers and asked him to move the Mini in the walkway so we could get out. He verbally confronted her very aggressively lectured her for some time and left saying "I'll let you out when I get around to it". We then saw him valet another car so we both managed to work the scooter out between cars. As we are driving away this valet runs at us screaming he has to check the cars for scratches. We were really shaken up after a otherwise great experience. As local repeat customers, we would be uncomfortable returning until the valet situation is resolved. read more

Cynthia made our dinner experience 10/10. While the food was delicious she truly set the experience apart. She had amazing recommendations for food and mocktail pairings that set the bar high. We will be coming back to see what she comes up with next! read more

Jacob at the Topside is seriously the best server around! Made sure to not only block the wind, but suggested the best happy hour beverages! The vibes were the best and he made sure we had the absolute best experience! read more

The service and Ambiance were amazing, but the food you got for the price was meager. I took my son and his wife, who were visiting. THE PORTIONS FOR 45.00 and 42.00 fish with no sides was horrible. My husband steak was 54.00 and it looked like two ounces. How can you charge this much for such small portions. YOU CAN GO TO THE FOODSHACK, PAY THESE PRICES BUT GET A BETTER PORTION. SO DISAPPOINTED! read more

I always have such a nice experience Everytime I come. Came on Saturday night with some friends and had the Grouper. The meal was Delicious. Will defiantly be back ! read more

Tried this place when it first opened a few years ago and didn't love it. Service was awful and food was so so. So glad we gave it another shot tonite. Service was excellent. From our initial greeting to the bartender to our server Julian who was fantastic, what a nice experience. They're having a special price fixed for Sept Palm Beach which is amazing. Wedge salad with NY Strip was delish. Excellent desserts. We will definitely come back. read more

Extremely expensive for mediocre food and service. Was almost 400$ for 3 people and we only had enters

Beacon is a coastal steakhouse with delicious food and a beautiful view of the ocean. Our server was very friendly and accommodating. Everything we ordered was great. I loved the tuna and crispy shrimp appetizers. There's something for everyone on the menu. I also loved the salmon entree with polenta and asparagus. The polenta was cheesy and had a great texture. If you have room for dessert they are all beautifully plated deconstructed versions of a traditional dish. Overall, this restaurant was lovely and I had a great experience. Definitely come here if you are in palm beach and looking for a nicer dinner. read more

Great menu. Great service. Anne was our server and was awesome. Loved the atmosphere. Took our family there for a night out and will be back. The appetizers were delicious, as was the main course and desserts. I can't imagine anything not tasting great. Even the lattes were spot on. If you can't enjoy your time here, you should check your pulse. read more

We went to The Beacon to take advantage of the summer special: all the oysters and shrimp you can eat for $25. During happy hour the drinks are half priced too. The oysters were small, served in batches of six. The shrimp were large. I managed three rounds but they would have gladly kept bringing more if I wanted. I was pleased with the deal, although I've had better, bigger oysters. The service was fine. read more

We went to Beacon when we couldn't get into the sister restaurant, Lucky Shuck. I now know why. First, the food was good but that's it. Very slow service and there weren't many other people there on the eve of the 4th. That should have been a red light. I felt like I was in a funeral home. There were no smiles or anything that made us feel welcome. After a drink and app, we left and went to Schooners. I have to say that myself and my 3 friends all felt the same. I'm shocked at the lack of customer interaction. Oh well. I'm sure the next owner will fix the situation. read more

Perfect Sunday buffet style brunch with an amazing view! Perfect for a girls day! The food was fresh and the options plentiful. My favorite options were the beacon chicken, avocado toast and the oysters! It also included 2 mimosas that complimented the food so well. I had a wonderful time and enjoyed every last bite, even the desserts were yum. The view is so good too. It would even be great to host an event here! read more

Beaches has been my favorite restaurant since they opened and I would go multiple times a week happily. This year new chef new menu -'d the portion sizes are HALF. Literally half of what they used to be it's a joke. I've been twice and am heartbroken with the changes. One cocktail had a giant ice cube and maybe 3 oz of liquid at a staggering prices. I'm happy to pay for quality but leaving hungry when your spending top dollar is absurd. I hope Joe and Charlie read this review and make drastic changes fast. Chef Wu leaving was a blow desserts are not the same either. read more

I stopped in to check the place out. Cynthia was amazing, she recommended the dockside and it did not disappoint. She made my experience very enjoyable. 5 stars all around. read more

Had the 5 course tasting for my husband's. It was amazing. The grilled duck was the 2nd best duck I have ever had! (My favorite duck is at mustards grill in Napa so this is way closer for me to order again) but this duck knocked some other ducks down the list! The sauce for the duck was so good and the duck was cooked to perfection! The whipped feta I could have ate so much more of that! The kitchen staff accommodated me being gluten free - can't wait to go back again. read more

Avoid! Overpriced. Bad food and drinks. Our friends warned us about the Beacon, but it's has been on our list and we wanted to try it. The place is set up to be a high end establishment. The ambiance is alright. But the food and drinks are unacceptable, especially at the price they charge. Wine was terrible and our fishes were not fresh and extremely salty. We couldn't bother with ordering dessert after the bad entrees. Don't waste your money. read more

Beacon has a new menu, and it's full of delicious choices! The Spicy Lobster Rigatoni is packed with flavor, and the Swordfish Tomahawk is cooked perfectly with a tasty butter and caper sauce. My favorite starter is the crispy Fried Chicken. The new menu is creative but still feels familiar, making Beacon our place to eat by the water. read more

Love the atmosphere. We tried once before and wasn't "wowed" so decided to give it another try. We again were so disappointed. Extremely small menu. Got the hummus platter and Caesar salad. Just ok. Was hoping the meals would make up for it. Unfortunately the filet was overcooked and the lobster rigatoni had 2 tiny pieces of lobster. Didn't enjoy either meal and decided during the meal that it was a huge mistake giving them another chance. Such an amazing location and love the new updates but unfortunately the food will not bring us back. 2 strikes and done. read more

Great food and service. Portion of linguine snd clams quite small. However, they compensated by taking it off the bill snd giving us two desserts. . Very yummy food! Waitress was wonderful. read more

We celebrated my husband's birthday at Beacon. Everything about our experience was great..... from the valet, host, server, cocktails and food. They brought out complimentary champagne as we were seated to celebrate my husbands birthday.... he would have rather had dessert but I enjoyed the champs! After hearing cocktail recommendations from our server we decided to order the Back in El Dia. This cocktail wasn't my favorite as the smoke flavor of this was very overpowering. I switched to an old fashioned and was made exactly to my liking. We shared a swank farms green salad. Loved the variety of the shaved carrots and the flavor of the moscatel vinaigrette. My husband enjoyed the swordfish for dinner. I went with the dry-aged no.12 short rib burger. My burger was so juicy and cooked perfectly. We were sad that they we unable to make the chocolate dessert during out visit. So we settled on the apple dessert instead. I loved the oatmeal-brown sugar crumble with the ice cream. The service and presentation of our food and drinks were incredible. Thank you to Timothy and the entire staff for a delicious dinner. We will be back on our next visit to the area. read more

Started with amazing staff, very hospitable. from the Person who brought us to the table the wait staff. Everyone was really nice and knew everything about the food. Started with Soup and some other apps. the Cheese (Stracciatella) was just a grat appetizer. 7 of us had 5 different meals at the table (3 had the fish) The burger was perfectly cooked and outrageous ! Fish cooked perfectly and presented in a really nice polenta. Scallops just perfect. And the pork chips cut off the bone and excellent flavor! Yes, the meal is not a budget meal bit amazing for a special occasion or a Valentines dinner. read more

The Beacon - Dark Forest - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Jupiter, Florida

I like Beacon and despite a few less than stellar dining experiences I have returned, however after this week's terrible food disaster I'm rethinking my loyalty. I was with family and we tried many items and with the exception of the very good house bread everything was awful and simply not edible. You would think with such a limited menu that the kitchen would prepare decent dishes but not here and it goes beyond taste because the shrimp in the Pappardelle & Sugo di Pompodoro were just so low level that something of that poor quality should not be served. The sauce in the pasta was also foul. The chicken in the Chicken Meunière was tough and I had a difficult time cutting it and I just gave up. The chicken should not have been served and you have to question the quality control in the kitchen. Beacon is a nice restaurant with great views but the food really needs improving. read more

every single item from the raw bar, to the appys, and the entrees were completely underwhelming. you could charge half as much and it be just as disappointing, so to pay what we paid its borderline insulting. I'll never be back. I don't leave reviews. but I had to with this place. our waiter was great. the design and location are incredible. but you just can't get over the the reality of the menu. read more

Had a great meal here with my family a few weeks ago. It's a great place for a fancy dinner. They have some good menu items and cocktails. I got the stracciatella and the chicken meuniere. The chicken was amazing! read more

Amazing happy hour with my company NV realty that I love so much! Great time! Food was delicious, drinks perfect and service outstanding! Ocean, lighthouse, boats, wow! The view is breathtaking! Can't wait to go back! If you are in Jupiter it's a must go place! read more

This lighthouse viewing spot delivers on creatively prepared dishes and very tasty craft cocktails. The service was a little inconsistent throughout our meal but I understand it's a relatively new place so they get a pass while working out the kinks. We shared the octopus appetizer, crudo and wood fire grilled oysters. Each one was played beautifully and full of flavor. I had a pan seared wahoo with a perfectly done crust. Sides included broccolini and asparagus that were so artfully prepared, it reminded me of a shaved salad. Others at the table had the snapper, scallops and duck. We shared this chocolate mousse dessert with freeze dried raspberry crackles that was quite delicious. Admittedly not a chocolate fan, I thought the dessert was lovely. They have a nice wine list which is pretty well priced considering the caliber of this restaurant. The views from the outside veranda where we dined was stunning. We would definitely return. read more
