Set against the backdrop of the Safe Harbor Rybovich Marina, Lamarina brings sophisticated waterfront dining to the North End of West Palm Beach. Flanked by gleaming megayachts and caressed by gentle coastal breezes, this 200-seat restaurant transports guests to a realm that balances seaside tranquility with refined culinary elegance.
Palm Beach has always carried the quiet pulse of yachting culture, but for many locals, life on the water is more a curiosity than a lifestyle. Lamarina offers a rare glimpse into that world—without ever stepping onto a boat. A lunch here is not just about the food, but about soaking in the scene: yacht crews hard at work on vessels docked just steps away, a sense of calm in the air, and the easy rhythm of waterfront life unfolding around you.
The experience at Lamarina is quietly refined, never fussy. The lunch menu, launched just in time for the Palm Beach International Boat Show, strikes the right balance between simplicity and sophistication. With just 17 items—divided into small plates, salads, large plates, and sides—it gives diners enough variety to satisfy any midday craving without overwhelming them.
Among the standout dishes is the Preserved Lemon Hummus, served with toasted artisan bread. It’s a small plate, but its flavor is anything but—arguably one of the best takes on hummus available in the area. Salads are limited to three options, each thoughtfully composed and perfectly portioned for the midday crowd. The Falafel Wrap, accented with bright lemon tahini and served alongside hand-cut fries, is a vibrant, satisfying option that speaks to the restaurant’s Mediterranean influence.
Larger plates include a Crispy Swordfish Sandwich with citrus remoulade and preserved lemon, Lamb Sliders layered with labneh and heirloom tomato, and a hearty 10 oz Châtel Farms Prime New York Strip. There’s even a butterflied Branzino for those looking to keep things light yet flavorful.
Lamarina’s culinary concept draws on Mediterranean, Latin, and Asian influences, paired with a full sushi and raw bar. It’s a global approach to coastal cuisine, one that feels entirely at home against the backdrop of yachts that have sailed in from around the world.
Though the food alone is worth the visit, it’s the atmosphere that lingers. The space is designed to transport—not just through its menu, but through its breezy service, unfussy elegance, and immersive waterside setting. Lamarina feels like a getaway, even if you’re just slipping away for a weekday lunch.
With plans to add a weekend brunch service and flexible space for private events, Lamarina is shaping up to be more than just a restaurant—it’s becoming an anchor for the area’s laid-back luxury. Whether you’re deeply tied to the boating community or simply curious about that world, this spot offers a front-row seat to the North End’s rising culinary tide.
Lunch is served from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Tuesday through Sunday. For more information, visit lamarinawestpalm.com or follow @lamarinawestpalm on Instagram. Reservations are available via Resy or by calling (561) 371-8380.
