My wife has wanted to come here for some time now and we finally made it in to enjoy Ocean front dining. We walked along the boardwalk, enjoying the ocean and small beach view. We first noted the Ocean facing bar and then were directed to the seating area. Prompt friendly greeting and drink orders placed. I ordered the Tuna Salad Platter, which was not only delicious but artistically presented! I enjoyed my platter of tuna Salad, fresh fruit, RED RIPE tomato, pita, carrot and celery sticks. Definitely worthy of future return visits!

Entrance from the boardwalk

I've wanted to go here for some time. We'd been to their other place on the west side of the county and everything I'd read about this place, sounded intriguing. We parked in the beach lot and climbed the stairs. We weren't exactly sure where we were going -- as there were no signs saying "restaurant". We found the narrow wooden boardwalk and walked down to the noise of the people. We first saw the bar and their small counter facing the ocean. Then a bit further down the regular entrance to the restaurant itself. There are two basic rooms -- one lower than the other. There are stairs from one up to another and a few more stairs up to the area for the bathrooms. It's not the easiest access. We had a table looking right out at the boardwalk and the ocean. There was a sea breeze. And it was a bit cool until the sun peaked out. The full menu looked appealing. They also had a blackboard of specials. My husband ordered their tuna salad salad. Although my first choices were either a mussel appetizer or a burger, I ordered a BLT sandwich (I spoke recently with Yelp elite Karen N and it's her mom's favorite) and upgraded to sweet potato fries. The salad was beautiful to look at. Colorful and satisfying. A very ripe red tomato stuffed with tuna salad, pita bread wedges, carrots and celery, and and a small bowl of fresh fruit. My sandwich was wonderful. A plethora of bacon, fresh lettuce and ripe tomato with mayo on toast. The sweet potato fries were delicious -- and addictive. This restaurant is unique and enticing -- a ramshackle appearing building perched on the edge of the high dunes with a spectacular ocean view -- and very appetizing food in generous portions. So glad we came. We look forward to returning.

Croissant  and egg breakfast sandwich and it was huge
Ilona N.

Dune Deck Café is that rare breakfast spot that actually lives up to the hype. Yes, there's usually a line, but it moves fast and it's 100% worth it. And let me be clear: this place is on the beach... not "near" the beach. You're literally hearing the waves, feeling the ocean air, and soaking in the kind of views that make you slow down and enjoy your coffee a little longer. The food is great, and the portions are no joke. My egg and croissant sandwich could've easily fed two people. Service is quick and efficient even when they're slammed, and my cappuccino came with a rock sugar stick, which... honestly, that's the real way to a girl's heart. I noticed some people complaining about the birds but this is what it means to eat beach side. Honestly the birds were adorable :-) If you want a beachside breakfast that feels like a mini vacation, Dune Deck is the move.

My bestie's new place is walking distance to the Lantana Municipal Beach. On a 75 degree Saturday morning, Dune Deck Cafe was slammed packed with a waitlist overflowing onto the boardwalk. Hello, 65 degree Thursday -- and Happy New Year! We came for a Bloody Mary and I tried their gazpacho soup. The Bloody Mary gives you a nice buzz, but could have been a tad more creative with shrimp, sausage, okra, and/or bacon. The gazpacho was delish, it's becoming a rarity to find at a close-by restaurant. Awesome beachside view. This is a relaxing spot to hit up after the beach.

Wow, this place was absolutely phenomenal! The location itself is worth checking out, let alone the food. The views make it one of my favorite breakfast spots. We came here on a Friday morning, so we were seated right away. Our waiter was extremely attentive and friendly. Our food was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious. I had the egg, bacon, and cheese croissant sandwich with potatoes. I also just had to get a pancake on the side, and I am so glad I did! My husband ordered the fresh catch sandwich with fries. He said it was awesome and rated the coleslaw as top-notch. We can't wait to come back here! There is plenty of pay to park parking down below and the ramp made it easy to walk up with a stroller. We can't wait to bring our family here too!

Running errands I detoured to The Dune Deck. First, the beer is so cold, your teeth will hurt. Great beer temp. barometer. Breakfast stops at 11:30 during the week, served all day on the weekends. Love their mahi-mahi and other seafood options. Burgers are great too. I love the sound of the waves as I enjoy my meal and views. Prices are great. No co-signer required. They take credit cards now, discounts for cash.

Fish Taco Special with rice and coleslaw
Kyle V.

Stopped in for a late breakfast but they switched to lunch already. They had a few things available all day but we opted for lunch instead. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. They had a large board of specials which we both ordered from. I went with the two fish tacos and a side of rice and coleslaw. It was very average at best. I was pretty surprised with the quality considering the high reviews and how much the server spoke highly about the menu, especially the specials. It just lacked a little bit of everything in my eyes. The flavor was missing and the toppings on the taco were just not great. The coleslaw didn't seem fresh and the rice was bland. The portion size was very fair for the price paid and it filled me up. Overall, this seems like a place that you go to for the view and atmosphere. I'd try it again just because of the other high reviews because maybe I just ordered the wrong thing. No complaints on the staff or cleanliness.

Mahi mahi grilled
Wayne G.

Awesome mahi mahi grilled with rice and salad! Beautiful views and awesome service by Jessica! 1/2 pound stone crab claws good but only 3 for 30 Dollars not a good value.

Grilled calamari
Alexa F.

Honestly just came here for the beautiful view but surprised to find the food was equally as amazing. The grilled calamari had amazing flavor. Best I've ever had. Catch of the day was mahi, got it blackened. Big piece of fish and delicious. Fries, salad, and pita bread are yummy. Fish and chips also good and very hot. Portions are huge. Good pricing. Area is covered so it's fine if it is raining. Staff is very nice and food comes out quick.

Half-eaten Greek Omelet (it was so good; couldn't wait to take photo!)
Maureen B.

If you're looking for a nice oceanfront dining experience that doesn't break the bank, this is your place. The Santorini omelette is delightful and you can design your own omelette easily. The coffee is great, the view is fabulous and the service is right on.

Dune deck coffee
Lily K.

There is easy parking it's the pay by phone parking then walk up the stairs to the boardwalk and it's right there. There are bathrooms available and a pretty decent food selection. Service was AMAZING our server was CARLOS he has been there for 22 years!!! And he was so helpful and nice all staff was nice. It was a cold and windy day we were greeted with smiles and it was busy but I asked if we could have a view and she said no problem let me find a spot. I said I know it busy so it's fine either way, and she was like absolutely, if I were you if want a view too. So that was very nice to have and we did get a great spot! Now it is semi outdoors it's covered but birds were inside. Not many but some. But worth it for the view. The food was good, their Greek salad looked phenomenal my corn beef hash was good and my parents enjoyed their eggs Benedict, and the dune deck coffee and I had a peach Bellini and they were both amazing. The food was not the highlight here the ambiance, the view and the drinks were the real winners here. Happy helpful staff a decent menu, and a great view. Now the menu says cash only but they accept cards now.

Brunch views
Mitch R.

Amazing location at the beach with great views. Open air restaurant with lotsa overhead fans so don't worry it's comfortable. Owner greets you at check in and comes by when your food is served to see how it is. No line at 12-1230 but very busy restaurant. Great menu choices of breakfast and lunch items and they do take credit cards. Lotsa Greek items on the menu based on the owners background and we loved it. I had a huge flavorful veggie egg white omelette and my girl got chicken skewers with a Greek salad and homemade tzatziki. She said it was better than Chris's Taverna. Wow. We'll be back a lot for sure as u can walk the boardwalk after brunch to view the beautiful beach and waves. Friendly service too !

The view from the bar.
Eliot D.

Been searching for corned beef hash, and this was my favorite by far in and around Boynton Beach. The coffee was hot and fresh as well. The view, amazing. People walking along the beach, cute pups in and around the bar. Everyone seemed happy to be there. I will return and watch the sunrise again.

The location is always the best right on the beach. The food is excellent but a bit pricy. This is one of our favorite breakfast places.

Oceano, why oh why did I wait so long!?…read more I have been wanting to try Oceano since it was located in its former Lantana location. So when friends asked if I were interested in joining them for an art exhibit, followed by dinner at Oceano, I could not say YES fast enough. I am thrilled to say the wait was worth it. All the chips fell into place when after a small wait we were seated outside (what luck), found our waiter was from Croton-on-the-Hudson (had to wait a year before he was able to land a job at Oceano), and our food was paced perfectly. Started with the Grilled Cucumber Salad that included sumac-labneh, medjool date, berbere spice pickle, pistachio, and the Sugar snap Pea Salad of rhubarb, pecorino, stracciatella, mint, lemon, marcona almond. Next up, Pizza! Had to of course start with the Straight Shooter Pizza which was a simple pie of tomato, mozz, basil, pecorino, good olive oil. Pizza #2 was the Zuchinni Pizza, a white pie of hazelnut, lemon, asiago, mozz, parm, stacciatella. To round out the meal we had the Gnocci Sardi. This was an utterly delicious bowl of pasta that included duck confit, morels, peas, parm, creme fraiche, fines herbs, wild ramps. Super meal with smiles all around. There are two restaurants I feel are super deserving of a Michelin Star in my area, and Oceano is definitely one of them! Not super close to me, but I see a few summer nights at the bar with a salad, pizza, and glass of wine in my future.

Food was amazing - every dish was better than the last. Erin, our server was awesome…read more Thank you I wanted to meet Jeremy the chef, but he unfortunately was out of town. Bummer, friend of my buddy I work with

The restaurant had a relaxed crowd and didn't feel overly loud even once more people started coming in. The fish in both dishes tasted fresh and the seasoning on the sandwich had a good kick without being overwhelming. Our server was attentive from the start and kept checking on drink refills without hovering around the table too much. Food timing was reasonable and everything arrived hot. I also appreciated that the staff seemed genuinely friendly instead of forcing small talk. Overall it felt like an easy place to sit, eat, and unwind for a while.

Waiter came over to take our drink orders. I opted for the VG lemon drop cocktail on the table ad. Waiter poured it table side and it was the clearest lemon drop I'd ever seen. There was live music to sing along to until he left then we DJ'd our own music on the TouchTunes via the app. It was a nice vibe. Waitress came over and remade my drink to a proper lemon drop. Shared delicious pretzel bites with friends and also ordered the soup or the day, chicken poblano which was creamy and tasty. Overall we had a grand time hanging out and the staff are all super pleasant and cool.

10/10 stars! Angle was a fantastic dinner spot that my friends and I came to on a Friday evening…read more We sat in a corner and there was a pianist playing which created a lovely ambiance. The service was spectacular. Beyond amazing. My friends and I ordered a few items to share. For appetizers, we split the wedge salad which came with tomato, bacon, cucumber, pickled red onion, and Maytag blue cheese dressing. It was delicious and I loved that they offered to split the salad in 2 dishes for my friend and I. So much easier. Additionally, we got the Snake River Farms Wagyu NY strip cooked medium and it was PHENOMENAL!!!!! For a side we got the baked mac and cheese which consisted of bechamel, 3 cheeses and pretzel crumbs. This side is a MUST! We also ordered the pumpkin gnocchi which consisted of duck confit, candied apple, and brown butter sage. My friends got the Lobster Campanelle which they were RAVING about. I don't eat seafood so I didn't try that dish. You must eat here if you are staying at the resort!! Lovely, lovely dinner!!

We ate here on our last night of our stay at Eau. The server and assistants were attentive and…read morefriendly. The piano player added a nice ambiance. The pretzel bread was a nice start. I had the Caesar salad, which was good but nothing to write home about. The organic greens salad was about the same. For the entrees, I had the NY strip and it was perfect. Juicy and flavorful. Perfect temp. You could tell the farm to table difference. He had the grouper, which he felt was good, but again not great. I'd highly recommend staying with the steaks. The sides were baked Mac & cheese and mushrooms. Both were delicious. Desserts were the cheesecake and carrot cake bread pudding. Both were tasty. They brought out a surprise dessert for my birthday which was a nice touch and piano played happy birthday. One note, I was impressed the manager told the table across from us to get the dog off the booth/table. Honestly was so off putting. The same dog kept nipping at servers as they walked by. I honestly feel they should've asked the dog to leave. At $500 for two, I shouldn't be listening to aggressive dogs and watching the owners keep them at the table which is so unsanitary. So I appreciate sticking to the rules, regardless if it upset that other couple.
