Could have been better - a disappointment to say the least. Hamburger: Tasteless unless you like the taste of the grease it was grilled on. Curried Chicken Salad: Edible however, oddly it arrived with a few banana slices, one piece of bacon, some lettuce with a vinegar type of dressing underneath it (yes the dressing was underneath the lettuce not on it) and a something yellow either bell pepper or tomato - the server thought it was a tomato but it was hard like a bell pepper- inedible whatever it was. I can appreciate the vibe at the pool and the festive feel of the outside bar that serves froze but I can't appreciate prices that are sky high for just meh. read more

We just love this hidden restaurant that in the Colony Hotel on Palm Beach Fl. We are regulars at this establishment. The restaurant and Menu are just perfect. I recommend have the catch of the day they prepare as you like or custom make for you. Only complaint is that it's has a small bar with about 8 seats outside poolside. The Bar service is completely underrated in my opinion. Also dress to impress because the best shopping experience is The Shops on Worth Avenue. We have seen some Celebrities there. read more

Prices are very high!!! $17 for sides is ridiculous and they're small. I shared a pasta dish with my husband and it was two bites each for $40. If the prices were cheaper more of a food selection, I'd be happy to go back, but for now I'll pass. There's better out there. read more

Love this place for a Saturday Brunch. Always has a great vibe. Exceptional service, excellent food, and great atmosphere. I had the fish and chips which is always fresh, hot, tender and delicious. Valet parking. Reservations highly recommended. read more

We loved this restaurant. The setting is beautiful! Try the smashed avocado appetizer. The chips were amazing! The crab cakes were great they were mostly crab. I thought the chicken could use more flavor. read more

Swifty's has the most delicious food and the cutest atmosphere. I came here for breakfast and lunch last weekend. I absolutely loved the cauliflower tacos for lunch and my iced latte for breakfast. The staff here is so friendly too! read more

Great food, the salmon was 10/10 and the truffle fries wow!! Nice clean coastal "ritzy" atmosphere. Prices were high.. service was lacking. Had an older man server and he didn't check in much and often forgot what he was doing.. for that I give this place 4 stars. read more

Great vibe and people watching. Food and service is great as well. Will return when I'm back in PB!

Had an amazing lunch here last week! Swifty's is located inside of the Colony Hotel. Place was pink and hopping! Definitely the place to be seen and had big Palm Beach vibes! We didn't have a reservation and were very lucky to get four seats at the outdoor bar. I wish I remembered our bartenders names because they were the best! I had a delicious tequilla drink called Spicy Socialite. One of the best drinks I've had. The bartender recommended the curried chicken salad for lunch and it did not disappoint. So flavorful and big portion. Everyone in my group was happy with their selections and all of their portions were big as well. Will definitely be back and would even consider a staycation here. Highly recommend and try to make a reservation. read more

3.5 stars for Swifty's. The menu is very limited. We had 6 in our group and went early and they got us right in. I got the 8 oz filet. It was cooked like I ordered (medium rare) but had ZERO FLAVOR. Which was disappointing especially for the price. The ambiance is absolutely gorgeous. The service is also VERY good. We accidentally dropped the butter knife and a minute later a staff member came over with a new one! Overall I would not return for dinner but would go back for a early cocktail by the pool because it really is beautiful there. read more

Enjoyed the ambiance ... food....service It is absolutely beautiful sitting outside by the pool and also nice inside. read more

My daughter and I had a wonderful time at Swifty's. We ate outside on the patio and it was a little cool. They had heaters placed strategically and our waiter was perfect. We asked them for a fruit platter to start with and it was not on the menu but it came beautifully done. I can't wait to take my husband there. The Colony Hotel was decorated for Christmas and the restaurant was in the back. Valets were great and it made it very nice not to have to deal with the Worth Ave parking. read more

Just spent four days at The Colony Palm Beach and it was exquisite! I had heard great things but this property needs to be personally experienced. Swifty's, the main restaurant, was delicious, and all of the staff were super helpful and knowledgeable. I initially thought the prices were a little steep, but every appetizer and entree was better than the next, and we decided it was well worth it, especially to dine poolside. Highly recommend the tuna tartare, crushed avocado, house cobb salad, crab cakes, gazpacho, and to always add the truffle fries! They have a nice wine list and a fantastic cocktail menu - all very refreshing and several really good non-alcoholic options. Great spot for dinner as well and you can move to the garden and have a drink afterwards at the breezy outdoor bar. Can't wait to return next year. Overall: Exquisite location, beautiful decor, delicious menu, and attentive poolside service! read more

Swifty’s - Exterior of hotel/restaurant near entrance - American Near Me - Palm Beach, Florida

This place is super cute! I went for lunch. I chose the burger and fries. Yummy! The cocktail options are great, I like the colorful drinks.

Health Code Violations! I was seated indoors next to a 4 top with a DOG on the floor ... not a service animal mind you, but a pet. And judging from their conversation they were NOT staying at the hotel. I was disgusted and horrified when I googled the FL health code and determined this restaurant was in violation! I spoke to the manager and showed her the code and all she could say is a feeble "oh I'm sorry, this hotel is dog friendly". Well that's no excuse because the restaurant is separate from the hotel. They tried to buy my silence by comping me my one cocktail. Didn't work. Beware of this overpriced health code violation. They should be ashamed. I even complained to the front desk of the hotel since the restaurant was attached. No one knows compliance in that place!!! I will never go back again. Disgusting! read more

Lovely place for a poolside lunch. Enjoyed the lobster salad. Service was attentive but not annoying. Great atmosphere!

Awesome patio service. I enjoy going to this restaurant for the atmosphere. The service into just be heating in Palm Beach wonderful place to hang out. read more

Place looks good but the food wast the greatest. Service was ok could do better. The vibe was not bad.

The food here was great! The service was so so and they don't have a bathroom with a changing table. But the fish I got was divine. We stayed at The Break where they overcooked my fish and a lobster so we were pleasantly surprised. Definitely recommended! read more

We came here for my friends bachelorette party for a brunch with 14 girls. It was so adorable on the inside and out. This is definitely an Instagram brunch spot. We sat outside on the patio. Since this was a large group they put us at 2 separate tables and we had a pre-fix menu. You could choose any drink off the regular menu you wanted but for food you only had two choices; either a traditional breakfast plate or French toast. I got the breakfast plate it came with an English muffin, eggs, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, potatoes, and a tomato. It was very delicious. For my choice of drink I had 2 mimosas. Some girls did order 3 drinks but the total came out to almost $140 per girl.....that is absolutely absurd. I've been to some world class restaurants and never had a breakfast that expensive. If you have money to blow, it's worth coming but otherwise stay away if you have a large party and want to get the pre-fixe menu, they charge you WAYYY too much. Pros: Ambiance, photo opportunities, taste of food Cons: prices, not good for large parties read more

Great atmosphere and service. All of our food was pretty good except the crab cakes and cookies. The crab cakes were below average and tasted no better than a mid to low-grade chain and possibly worse. The spinach that accompanied them was absolutely terrible...0 flavor...just mush! The cookies were very average. I recommend going here for the atmosphere because it lovely, especially if you can catch the band playing. However, the food is nothing too special. read more

Went for a bachelorette brunch. Called a month in advance to make reservation- knew we wouldn't get seated together from how big our party was but was promised that we would be close together. We get to the restaurant and we are sitting on the opposite side of the patio from one another. Very disappointed. 1st group that was seated saw hostesses seating other parties at tables that were right next them instead of the rest of the bachelorette party. Bride didn't get to sit with half of her girls. Made the best of it because they clearly weren't going to help solve the problem. Food and drinks were good overall but disappointed in being let down on the experience after hearing such good things about this place. read more

Always a fantastic meal and experience.. brunch or dinner, they never disappoint! Good for groups or smaller tables - always a stop when I'm in town. read more

The server was welcoming and attentive. super cute aesthetics and the best drinks I have ever had! would definitely visit

Very vibey spot, live music, comfy chairs, and good fengshui of the outside seating! Could definitely come here for a birthday Food was amazing got the tuna tartare was scrumptious (10/10), the meatloaf was epic (top 5 mashed potatoes after careful consideration) and the fish and chips were HUGE and very tasty!!! VERY good fries. I will say something was very salty (maybe the fish and chips) because I was chugging water ALL NIGHT! Parched AF. But still would eat again. The service was actually great, they came to the table sparingly but it was nice because we didn't really need anything. When we did need something they were very quick. read more

I can't tell you how obsessed I am with the chickpea fritters here! Come for a nice seat by their gorgeous pool and enjoy their yummy treats! Great service every time we're here! read more

My family and I love dining out and we do so frequently. Last night, it was my daughters turn to pick the restaurant and she picked Swifty's, in Palm Beach (a couple of our FAVORITE restaurants are in Palm Beach). Our first thoughts, upon arriving at the restaurant, were this looks like a neat, old Palm Beach, place to dine and we wanted to LOVE it! Unfortunately, it was ALL down hill from there! The service was adequate, albeit not great, the food was a "mixed bag" of mediocrity to downright awful. I had the crab cakes ($58), which were accompanied with a TABLESPOON of creamed spinach (which turned out to be a blessing because it was inedible) and two tablespoons of dry, tasteless, potatoes lyonnaise. My wife ordered the caramelized salad, she added shrimp and we were both surprised to find 5 small shrimp on top of this $60, mediocre salad!!! My daughter ordered a linguini dish, with fried zucchinI, in a lemon sauce, which was the best meal at our table but certainly not "to die for." My daughter also ordered a basket of truffle French fries ($25) for the table to pick at. I had one before dinner cocktail (VERY basic martini, nothing crazy) and then one glass of a house type red wine with dinner. My wife had one Captain Morgan with Diet Coke, my daughter had one glass of the same red wine I had. Also, we opted not to order any desserts. The pice tag for this barely edible dining experience for three people??......... $319 including tip. The price was not the issue, we weren't looking for "great value," almost every restaurant in the general vicinity of Swifty's would cost the about the same. However, for $319 we expected better service, larger portions (not huge, we aren't big eaters), and FAR BETTER food quality. Quite honestly, I can't see us going back to Swifty's anytime soon! read more

The food was so so but the prices are ridiculous! No prices on the menu. This was an absurd experience. Good luck!

It's all crap, food waitstaff, ambiance, and smell. I wouldn't go if it was the only test

Swiftys has what might be Palm Beach County's best burger and that is reason enough to go. Combine that with a beautiful setting, comfortable seating and an unrushed, casual and relaxed Palm Beach ambience and it makes Swifty's a great place to enjoy lunch or dinner. Like many restaurants the food can be a little uneven and the other items we tried didn't measure up to the burger and even the accompanying fries weren't that good. No problem though because the burger's goodness was enough to satisfy me. read more

Swifty’s - Lunch at Swifty's - American Near Me - Palm Beach, Florida

Ate here virtually every meal while staying at the Colony. Breakfast was always good, servers were very well mannered and trained well. None of the fuax snobbery you get from some establishments. Just good service, good food and done right. It is the little things that set this apart. For example the salt and pepper shakers are little pineapples. The butter pats have the hotel's name on them, the bills come in the sea-grape-print-paper used everywhere. Mornings before breakfast? Find coffee at the bar, sit outside under a banyan tree and relax with a vairety of newspapers. It's hard to leave here! read more

you have to go for the ambiance alone- the colors, the greenery, the decor- all make for perfect instagram pics both inside and outside. the food is good, i wouldn't go back for it, but i would go back for drinks and pictures, very aesthetic pleasing. my group of four started with the grilled octopus special and lump crab salad- both were great! for our mains we did the curry chicken salad, which was not what we expected at all, the chicken was the consistency and appearance of deli chicken salad, certainly more of a lunch not dinner meal. we also did the salmon which was small but good and the steak which was a little over cooked but tasty. our server was awesome, attentive and had us laughing all night. read more

Seems like a lunch spot. Super cool cafe around the pool of the Colony Hotel. The service both at the cafe & hotel very attentive. Beverages were impecable, great wine list. Beer served perfect temp In a cold Pilsner glass. Not sure why this place isn't a 5?? Food looked great, Doesn't meet expectations. Maybe the demo in PB demands bland? The menu is priced top notch and it isn't. read more

Great place for lunch by the beautiful pool area! My wife usually goes with one of her girlfriends but we decided to go last Saturday just the two of us. We both had the lobster salad it is fabulous for light tasty lunch. The service is always great and atmosphere is fun! Top it off with a walk down Worth Avenue even if you do not buy anything it's a great afternoon! Make sure you are well dressed! read more

After having enjoyed our brunch the previous day at the Seafood Bar at the Breakers just up the road, we decided to make reservations at Swifty's yesterday for brunch at 11:00 am by the pool. I would stress that on a beautiful day like yesterday, enjoy Swifty's outdoors by the pool, because the ambiance indoors just doesn't cut it, no matter the weather, IMO. Just not my cup of tea. The Colonial sits on a prime corner at the base of Worth Ave, the iconic street for shopping designer boutiques. As for location of your business or pleasure travels bring you to Palm Springs, none better. It's cramped, though, inside and out. Swifty's decor and ambience are true to the hotels "island-tired" decor full of greens and flamingo-colored wallpaper, rattan and wicker, etc. Not the classy design you find at the Breakers. The "Classic Colony Breakfast" was very good and generously portioned. Nothing "special", but well executed and presented. Hard to mess up scrabbled eggs, bacon , sausage, fried potatoes, roasted tomato, and Rosemary mushrooms. The mushrooms were an unexpected treat that made the plate unique and different. At $30, it was priced around the same as my lunch entree at the Breakers Seafood Bar the previous day, which didn't feel right, given the elevated service, cuisine, and ambiance e experience at the Breakers. The service was very attentive and warm almost all the way through the experience - then came the magic disappearing server portion of the meal when our server ghosted us for 15 minutes leaving coffee and water unfilled and no check. We had to practically trip (another) server to ask for our check. Timing of the presentation of meals was way off. My breakfast was nearly over before my wife's gazpacho arrived and by the time her lackluster watermelon and feta salad (not much of either, covered in Arugula), I was done eating and made my way all the way through the complimentary Walk Street Journal and NY Times I grabbed from the lobby. Complimentary valet parking was nice, as parking is hard to find. Overall the experience was unbalanced leaning slightly more negative than positive, but yea, I'd come back and give it another go on a pretty morning or afternoon for cocktails. read more
