Fresh Catch

Our Guide To The Freshest Seafood And Sushi In And Around The Island  

The ocean’s never far in Palm Beach, so take advantage by feasting on the sea’s succulent bounty. Head to these local hotspots for the freshest seafood and sushi in and around the island.

Lamarina
The Palm Beach food scene’s most recent darling, Lamarina (lamarinawestpalm.com) is every local’s favorite recent gift from North End Hospitality. Located on the water in northern West Palm Beach (one of the few!), the marina-side vibes are almost as good as the spicy hamachi washed down with a must-have pearl drop martini. 

LoLa 41
Located in the White Elephant Palm Beach, the swanky interiors and elegant outdoor courtyard vibes of globally inspired LoLa 41 (lola41.com)—named for the 41st parallel, which passes through Nantucket, home of the original restaurant—are the ideal setting for dishes like sushi, Korean bulgogi, or Peking duck. Sit on the patio for a picture-perfect experience.

Imoto
Chef Clay Conley can do no culinary wrong, so of course Buccan’s little sister Imoto (imotopalmbeach.com) makes the list. The small-plate menu is a twist on Japanese favorites like fresh sushi and sashimi, unique dumplings and tempura, and inventive wood-fired selections, all made from the highest-quality ingredients from around the corner and around the world. 

Seafood Bar at The Breakers
Fresh catch with a view of the deep blue Atlantic? How about a bar made out of an aquarium, too? Have it all and then some at the Seafood Bar at The Breakers, one of the freshest menus on the island. Have whatever’s on special that day, of course, but don’t leave without trying the blue crab nachos. For an equally delicious but totally different ambiance and cuisine, go for Asian fare at off-property Echo, another ultra-fresh menu by The Breakers. 

PB Catch
Known for sourcing the highest-quality oysters, clams, shrimp and fish, PB Catch (pbcatch.com) lets you order from the freestanding raw bar, where the staff stays busy shucking fresh oysters, or select a whole-fish entrée with creative sides. The restaurant has a focus on sustainability and freshness, so it’s one of the best feel-good seafood spots around.

Moody Tongue
An intimate Michelin-starred eatery, Moody Tongue Sushi (moodytongue.com) at the Hilton West Palm Beach presents a 13-course omakase experience highlighting a hyper-seasonal sushi menu from Executive Sushi Chef Hiromi alongside a curated beer pairing from Michelin-starred Moody Tongue Brewery’s acclaimed brewmaster Jared Rouben. If beer and sushi are your ideal pairing, you’re going to want to book a seat.
