3. Lynora’s

This downtown West Palm Beach restaurant serves some of the best Italian food in South Florida (a bold statement, we know). (If you don’t believe us, make a reservation at Lynora’s, then see us at the Denison display.) In 1974, Raffaele and Maria Abbenante immigrated from a tiny Italian island called Ponza, and together they began selling pizza by the slice in Lake Worth, Florida. Over the next 35 years, Maria introduced the flavors of Italy to South Florida, and Lynora’s became a South Florida favorite. The menu is filled with a variety of pastas, pizzas, entrees, soups, salads, and small plates.

E.R. Bradley’s is a landmark bar and restaurant on the West Palm Beach waterfront. The building has been around since 1898 and was once an exclusive club opened by Colonel E.R. Bradley. Now, it’s an American restaurant with an old Florida atmosphere that’s a 1-minute walk from PBIBS 2021. The menu is full of burgers, salads, and main dishes. Don’t gloss over the raw bar — fresh oysters, clams, and ceviche are showstoppers. Does anyone else crave fresh seafood after a boat show? Just us? Cool.
