For generations, this Worth Avenue hotspot has been a destination of choice, attended by both celebrities and political figures. Marked by a tower of bougainvillea climbing its fa�ade, Ta-bo� has an intimate island elegance, thanks to paddle fans, brown treillage, dark wicker furniture, and abstract floral fabrics. Fresh seafood and steaks are perennially popular, but you'll also find pizzas, burgers, sandwiches, and such main course salads as grilled chicken and pear, cold poached salmon, and Maine lobster and chicken. The bar scene is also prominent at the restaurant, especially as you wait for a table.
Located in the middle of Clematis Street in West Palm Beach, The Chickpea Grill & Hummus Bar is a great place to go for Mediterranean cuisine, especially if you strive to eat local and organic. The whole menu is prepared fresh, with even the pitas brought in daily from a local bakery. One glance at the menu and you'll see that they take the guess work out of knowing which selections are gluten free, vegetarian, vegan, organic and lactose free. Open Monday through Saturday from 11 AM to 4:30PM, Chickpea lets you build your own pita, bowl, or platter for dine in or take out. The prices can't be beat when you know the quality of food that you are receiving and once you see how big the servings sizes are- you'll agree even more.
The location isn't prime, lines can be long, and the decor isn't jaw-dropping, but the food, by all accounts, is amazing. If you don't have the fortitude to wait for a table, it's only your loss. Seafood of all sorts monopolizes the menu, and it's prepared in both traditional and unconventional ways, inspired by recipes from the world over. Appetizers and entrees are both sizeable, so if you're a big eater, you'll probably be challenged; if you're a light eater, prepare for a doggy bag. Grilled fish, tasty shrimp, luscious pastas, and terrific crab cakes provide indication of the fare, but the temptations on the menu will have you agonizing over what's best to order. Don't worry – everything's good.
