It was great (service, value, etc). Will post full review later. Nothing fancy but coffee was in the pocket and biscuits and gravy was the best I've had in west palm beach to date. -Lizz aka The Hungry Poet read more

I've heard a lot of good things about Portside, specifically, that their Chicken and Waffles are amazing so I had to try them out. We arrived at approximately 10:45AM and the restaurant was buzzing lots of people enjoying their food. I had four people in my party and we were promptly seated and staff were very courteous. I was able to taste all the food that we ordered the breakfast burrito and the eggs beni with pork belly were delicious. The chicken and waffles were good but I feel the Waffle could have been fluffier. I feel it's a bit on the expensive side for breakfast but everything was delicious and high quality. Overall cool little breakfast spot with some incredible breakfast options. read more

We will definitely be back next time we are in the area! The outdoor seating was nice as they have a big ceiling fan moving the air around! read more

This place was amazing, I randomly decided to go by myself and didn't have any regrets. The food was incredible, I got the Hogsman Benny, the bread was so soft and fluffy and the pork was perfectly tender with a ton of flavor the poached eggs were slightly runny and the sauce on top really added something special especially combined with the flavor of the pork. The service was great, my waitress was very attentive and nice I was able to talk to her for a bit about the restaurant. Unfortunately I wasn't able to stay outside too long because of the heat but the inside ambiance was nice too, modern with a coastal aesthetic. I'd definitely recommend this place especially if you live locally and haven't tried it yet!! read more

Portside pleasantly surprised me. The food was amazing! I ordered the Bahamian omelet and the French toast casserole and wowww they are a game changer! So tasty and yummy! Flavor packed! The customer service was great as well and we were seated quickly. I also love how Bluey the kids show was playing on the TV, so very kids friendly as well. There's plenty of outside seating as well. This is my new go to brunch spot for sure! read more

The restaurant sits back off the road a little and I never knew it was there. That being said, know that we know it's there and so good, we'll certainly come back. It's clean and small with tables for small and large groups. We were a party of 6 and fit no problem. Parking just in front. Our server was helpful and warmed up during the meal. The menu options included all the typical staples, many of which with some added unique ingredient - lots featuring pork belly, etc. Their cheese grits were stellar, as was their pancake. The sausage gravy and biscuits were amazing too. read more

This was the a surprise in all the best ways! - Ended up here for brunch with friends after an event at the fairgrounds and was blown away. - After a little bit of a wait we got seated, and though we took our sweet time looking over their menu, we never felt rushed or hurried. - We started with Mimosas and beignets, because why the heck not?! - We sampled the raspberry, lychee, and guava Mimosa and each was better than the one before, while the beignets, though small were absolutely delicious, with crispy fried outsides, fluffy lemony insides, and a thick rich chocolate sauce as well. - Each of us tried something different for brunch. I went with my standard go-to of biscuits and gravy, the lovely Spensyr had caramel apple French toast, W. got the BAC Benedict, and J. got shrimp & grits. We also sampled the pork belly and braised pork debris. - Every single thing we tried was very very good! read more

When we first tried this place years ago it was so welcoming and delicious. It's still good but feels a bit lackluster now. I'm sad to say the Coffee was bitter and the food was good but nothing exciting. read more

I'm not sure why we had never seen this place while googling in the past. But I'm glad we did this time! I loved the decor as it has a nautical vibe without going overboard. I considered the Blue Crab Benedict as I am a blue crab addict after living in the Mid Atlantic and Maryland for many years. I didn't though because I had never eaten here and was unsure of the quality of the crab. Domestic crab is so much better than imported. The staff at Portside were very cordial and professional. We started with a plate of Beignets. They were surprisingly delicate and moist with a lemony zest at the end. I ordered the Big BAC Benny. Fresh smashed sausage patties, American cheese, candied bacon, chipotle mayo & poached eggs over english muffins. It was absolutely delicious. The home fries were ordered extra crispy and the kitchen sent them out as ordered. The pork belly was tasty, well caramelized, quite meaty, but the fatty bits were especially delicious. I tasted 2 the guava and raspberry mimosas. I loved them both. I'm not a big fan of mimosas. These though were amazing in my opinion. I'll definitely be back with the rest of my family. I really enjoyed our visit and now I that I know the quality of the food and service, I will have the Blue Crab Benedict next time! read more

We stopped in after church for some brunch. It was about 12 o'clock and the place was fairly packed. We had to wait about 10 minutes for our table, which wasn't bad. I ordered the redneck Benedict. It was an English muffin with pulled pork two poached steaks and hollandaise all over the top. It was good. The hollandaise was a little bland, but not terrible. The home fried potatoes are a good add-on and I pretty much ate it all. My wife. Ordered a chicken sandwich. With french fries and it was delicious she enjoyed it thoroughly. The french fries are kind of like remade french fries I called them fro bows. We both had iced teas to drink, but I think next time we come we're going to have one of the mimosas. They serve mimosas in five different flavors, including guava and lychee. Just gonna have to try one of those. Anyway nice little place. I'd recommend it. read more

Went here for breakfast with a friend last Sunday. Pretty crowded, of course, and extremely noisy for some reason. I had eggs Benedict with tomato, spinach and hollandaise sauce. Absolutely delicious! I got the side order of potatoes and they were good but very heavily salted. You could see salt all over them. I mentioned it to the waitress and she said they were known for their heavily salted potatoes. Known by whom, the local cardiologists' association? She said next time to ask for them only lightly salted. So beware of that or maybe get another side. The eggs were delicious though. read more

For a Saturday brunch, it wasn't too busy. We were told there was a 30 minute wait, but it was more like 15-20 minutes, which was great. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating, which is great. One thing I didn't love is that the bathrooms are single stalled and there is not a changing table if you have kids who still wear diapers. It is very bright with great natural lighting from the windows. The menu had a lot of options. We got a mimosa flight for $25 and you get to choose 4 flavors (we did mango, guava, strawberry, and passion fruit). They were very delicious and there were some other unique flavors available. The food was well seasoned and was great portions. This visit was much better than my first time here when they first opened, which made me very happy! read more

The portions are huge, and so delicious! Ordered the chicken and waffles. Chicken was perfectly cooked with just the right amount of spice. My husband had the yogurt and granola, but I would stick to the chicken and waffles. We sat at the bar and the staff was great. They were so friendly and attentive. Definitely feel like family when you eat here. read more

Portside Breakfast & Lunch - Chicken and waffles - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - West Palm Beach, Florida

Visited for brunch with family, a party of 5. We were seated promptly but unfortunately, the service was unsatisfactory. Our server, Ajah, was nice but she was not attentive. She asked for our drink order and after dropping them off she left without getting our food order. We were eventually able to get her attention to place our order. Unfortunately, the Philly cheese steak was dry and when it was brought up to her, she said "okay". The turkey club was tasty and well portioned. The chicken sandwich was a little bland. The breakfast burrito was savory but messy. There's plenty of parking though it may not always be the closest. The last server that checked on us was very nice and cashed us out. Overall, the experience was underwhelming. read more

It was a very underwhelming experience especially if you're coming from the other side of town. Parking in the morning on a regular weekday was hard to come by. Service not the most attentive for the 20% tip they start out with. Uncomfortably cold inside, as other reviews also noted maybe because seating is not plentiful and they want you to eat and go. I felt a bit rushed as they bring the check out without asking if you would like anything else. The chicken and waffles were good would just suggest a bigger waffle or 2 with the chicken. The watermelon that came out with my chicken and waffles was old and moldy looking. Overall I'd say give it a shot if you're local to the area if you're coming from a far probably not worth the trip. read more

A neat little place known mostly by the locals. We went for Sunday brunch around 10 am. Had to wait about 20 minutes. The wait appeared much longer when we were leaving. We had Belgium waffles, eggs Benedict, eggs over easy, bacon and biscuits / gravy. Portions were large and tasty. Should have ordered the eggs over medium as the whites were very runny. Forget the Arnold Palmer ... waitress tried twice and all I could taste was the lemonade. Worth a visit if you can find it read more

Nice, family style restaurant. Service was quick. Breakfast was a good portion and was served quickly, no errors. I ordered the sunrise classic, eggs were good and bacon was thick cut. I didn't love the breakfast potatoes, i asked for them well done and they were not. The side order of grits were also not my favorite, too much pepper. Overall great experience! read more

Came here with my friend Lisa after the Susan G. Komen walk. Parking limited so we parked by Bimini Twist. Waitress offered us choice of booth seating upon arrival. She proceeded to take our drink order. I settled on the popular mimosa flight flavors which were refreshingly delightful. Choices consisted of guava (super sweet), lychee (my fav), peach, etc. For my entree I had the chicken and waffle which was so dry I kept having to ask for hot sauce or more honey for moisture. The waffle and pancakes were good. The portions are large enough for leftovers but my throat could not handle the dryness of the chicken so I had to toss it. read more

Stumbled upon this little breakfast place in Royal Palm Beach. A little pricey for a cafe but with inflation, it's considered average in todays world. Service was not bad. Shrimp and grits - pretty delicious and flavorful. Surprisingly filling. The pork belly with poached eggs and hollandaise sauce over English muffin - VERY delicious. It's something different and the slab of pork belly they put on is Thicc. Not no flimsy bacon, it's a real piece of pork belly. Country fried steak - was also good but nothing special. Overall, I would come back to try other items on the menu. Need a morning fix, this is the place to go. Skip the McDonald's or ihop joints, go to Portside instead. Side note: there's plenty of free parking but I believe once the other places open in the plaza, parking could be limited. read more

The food is subpar at best. The online menu and in restaurant menu are very different. A lot of people were questioning the staff while we were there about that. Also, we had a party of 4 yet they couldn't push two tables together. This wouldn't have been issue if they had sat the two persons party at the tables for two instead of the tables for 4. We were told we could sit outside and eat if we wanted and we would be sad immediately or it would be a 30 minute wait (the temperature outside was in the 90s). It was not the coolest area either. When the food came out, you could see it was totally covered in salt and tasted pretty bland if it wasn't for the salt. Everything was either over salted or had no taste. The food they offer for the price doesn't really match. They don't offer a lot of sides in the restaurant, but they do offer them online. While the food looked good, it was either too salty or tasteless and didn't really hit anything for us. Everybody ended up taking most of their meal home . The coffee also had a very distinct taste that was not favorable. But that could be personal preference with the coffee. I will say the server was wonderful and super kind and did his best to accommodate us. I did see a lot of people leaving a lot of food behind. So I think this place is just really about your preference and taste and if you're willing to spend a lot of money for nothing spectacular. I don't think we will be rushing to go there again. read more

my partner & I arrived on a Saturday afternoon. This is my first time stopping at Portside & I had no real expectations. I was blown away. The service was great! The French toast was delicious. It did not taste overpoweringly of egg wash & it was beyond soft. The thick cut bacon was cooked to perfection, without me having to ask for it " crispy, but not burnt." My partner had the Benedict concho w a side of potatoes and sausage gravy. I tried both and they were delicious. Their hollaindaise sauce was super creamy & the pork " debris " was seasoned very well. Looking forward to coming back & tasting more dishes on the menu read more

Parking right out front Nice dining room area especially because the tables aren't right on top of each other Great breakfast options to choose for adults & a kids menu. We stop in last minute & luckily they seated us straight away. They have plenty of tables & some booth style tables. Our server was very pleasant & friendly. We ordered the Classic Belgian waffle which was so yummy with a side order of breakfast potatoes The Hogsman Benny also very delicious. We definitely will return for breakfast but we will also be back to try the lunch menu Sorry I didn't have my phone for pics. Next time I will read more

Every Saturday, a group of 4 to 5 of us meets at Portside for breakfast. This past visit, we placed our usual orders, and one of the guys ordered the shrimp and grits. First of all, the dish looked nothing like the photo on your website.but that aside, it was tasty, and all of our meals were really good. The issue came when it was time to pay. The shrimp and grits are listed on the website at $16.99, but on the receipt, the price showed $18.99. We asked the waitress about the difference, and she kindly offered to get the manager. When Chris, the manager, came out, he was already defensive before we'd even explained much. My friend mentioned the price discrepancy between the website and the receipt, and Chris immediately said that they have no control over the website and that the price on the receipt was final. He didn't offer to honor the posted price or even acknowledge the concern beyond that. We understand it was only a $2 difference, but it's the principle that matters. A simple acknowledgment and adjustment would've gone a long way. We didn't even bring up that the food presentation was nothing like the website photo. What bothered us most was the dismissive way the situation was handled.no listening, no real conversation, and he just walked away. To be clear, the waitress was excellent and the food was great. But the customer service from management was disappointing. We usually spend between $80 and $100 every Saturday, but we've decided to take our weekly breakfast elsewhere. Just wanted to share our experience. it was poor, not because of the food or service, but because of how it was managed. So... Chris, you're officially fired (by us)! read more

The food was really good however the service was not so great. The server seemed to have everything Elsen her mind except serving. I had to ask multiple times to have my coffee refilled. When I did she acted as if I was robbing her. She looked extremely annoyed that I would have the audacity to ask such a question. The people at the table next to me had a similar experience. The other servers seemed to be doing a very good job. They were actually paying attention to their customers. read more

Portside is the first breakfast spot in the Royal Palm Beach (technically West Palm Beach) that really speaks to me in a way that is poignant and profound, profound and poignant. Their breakfast dishes are magical, very magical. What makes them magical? Their bacon and roasted pork belly. Their thick cut bacon is cooked to perfection and has a nice richness that swirls around on the palate. Their roasted pork belly is savory and succulent, succulent and savory; satisfying to the last bite that whisks you away to a magical place where champagne dreams and Cadillac machines are supreme. The Loxahatchee Benny is very good with exquisite biscuits complementing the tasty sausage gravy and delightful hollandaise sauce. But if you want something dependable and always satisfying, the classic breakfast sandwich is where breakfast resides and remains firmly entrenched. The combination of eggs, melted cheddar cheese, and thick cut bacon on a fluffy brioche bun will get your day going with a soaring stride like a Pegasus about to take flight. There are other intriguing items on this menu that I have enjoyed like the good ol' Benny, French toast casserole, and the blue crab Benny. The location is spacious and welcoming by the friendly, attentive staff. You don't wait long for your food as it arrives fairly fast thanks to go an efficient and talented kitchen. Portside is the bees knees. read more

Finally made it here. They have a nice selection of menu items. I ordered all a al carte items as the potatoes that come with the dishes are deep fried breakfast potatoes. If you like real creamer with your coffee like I do, they only have coffee mate creamers, so I opted for water. My son did have a cup of coffee and he said it was good.

Well, been on my list to try and just like all other reviews, did not disappoint. Right near Bimini Twist just east of Okeechobee before 441. This place seems more than consistent. The food, really great. Was a beautiful day to dine outside in early a.m. (you have your choice, in or out) and only one little South Florida gnat to annoy me . There seems to be a car or mechanic shop next door and the trees block appropriately but when a loud car starts up, you hear it, if outside. With each bite, you'll forget. This may have been a one of on this particular day. Eating here will put you in your happy place. Mimosa was fresh squeezed orange juice but one glass runs just under $12 but you'll pay these days for just the fresh juice itself and was a more generous portion than a flute glass. Will definitely be back for sure. I could have done without the waitress calling me sweety after the 2nd time but at least she was friendly and attentive. I added scallions to my dish and was glad I did. The sausage patties on the Loxahatchee Benny were cooked to a perfect crust on the outside and oh so tasty! Not sure I've had better. Biscuit was absolutely perfection also with the crustiness in the right places (heavenly) and the sausage gravy, some of the best I've ever had. Egg cooked to perfection and the grits were way more than a white tasteless nothing you get in most places. They'll need a hint of salt but anyone that cooks grits leaves that up to you to decide. Kiddos to the chef, they know what they're doing. Bon a petit! Was truly chef's . You shall not be disappointed. read more
