The Honor Bar

Absolutely love this spot for a dim-lit suave night out in Palm Beach. While you definitely need a reservation, it’s fun hanging out at the bar while you wait for your table. Located in the Royal Poinciana Plaza, and sister restaurants with Palm Beach Grille, (they’re actually connected in the back and share restrooms) it’s also a chain with Houston’s & Hillstone. The service is always great and accommodating and everything on the menu is fresh and decadent! Always love ordering the Kale salad, Honor Burger- love the coleslaw!, French Dip and this time we tried the Omelette. It was worth sharing but there’s too many other favorites of mine so it’s lower on my go-tos. The sides are also obviously a must. While I’m always too full for dessert, I can never wait to return!

Great spot for lunch or dinner. I had the Prime Rib Sandwich which was delicious with the best fries ever! I also recommend the Emerald Kale Salad. Service is quick and the price is good value for money. It is also nice to sit at the bar for a quick meal.

This place is amazing. The chicken sandwich, the hamburger and the kale salad are perfect. I love the challenge of trying to bite into either sandwich because of the height. The portions are very generous and I can't believe that I always finish them. I alternate my visits with a different sandwich or burger. The service could not be any friendlier. Even the people cooking the food are friendly. cheers! Jeff Bernacci

Best crispy chicken sandwich there ever is/was/will be. This is our airport drop off or pick up tradition - solid meal every single time. The emerald kale salad is refreshing and delicious. Often imitated but neverrrrrrr perfected. Hats off to hillstone. Service is good but you definitely feel the difference between summer and in season.

Crispy chicken sandwich was tasty. Comes with thin fries. I liked them.

The kale rotisserie chicken salad with peanuts is absolutely the best salad I have ever eaten. The spicy slaw amazing. The burger and fries were incredible. The shrimp cocktail was perfectly prepared. Highly recommend this restaurant.

The chicken sandwich and Macho salad are amazing!! I always come here on my visits to Palm Beach. Love the vibe and the food. The cocktails are also top notch. Great place to eat after walking around Poinciana shops.

Googled “Best Burger in Palm Beach” and got this place. The burger, and the place, did not disappoint. About 12 ingredients wanted to ooze out of my burger with every bite. It was fabulous. My companion ordered the omelette for lunch and was just as pleased. Olive oil and oven time put some ciabatta slices to rights…a whole different twist to breakfast toast. Even the vine ripened tomatoes were baked to perfection and added fresh flavor to what could be a humdrum meal. The cutting board tables and exposed beams accented by black herringbone floors, warm spot lighting and tasteful art makes one want to linger long after the food is gone. Fabulous five stars.

What a great spot! I heard many great things about this place since I moved to the area and finally stopped in and sat at the bar. I got the deviled eggs. I mean-- they are not life changing but yet nice and refreshing. Then the chicken sandwich that everyone says you MUST try. Ok- it's big! I ate one piece, ate the second with a life and fork and no bread, then took the third piece home. I will say-- it was much, much better an hour later after it had time to sort of "marinate". Next time I'll get a sandwich to go. Happy to add this to my places I like!

We absolutely love this spot. Cool dark bar vibe. We don't do it too often because the wait time can be brutal. The chicken sandwich and burger are epic. Could be the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. I'd it pricey? Yep sure is. It is Palm Beach after all. Just take a walk through the parking lot and count the exotic cars.

The Honor Bar on Palm Beach Island offers a stylish and moody ambiance that sets the scene for a delightful experience. Walking in, you're greeted by a cool atmosphere that blends sophistication with a relaxed vibe. We only grabbed drinks at the bar, but the service here was excellent, with attentive staff who were friendly and knowledgeable about the drink menu. While the drinks were tasty and well-prepared, they didn't particularly stand out as extraordinary. However, they complemented the overall experience nicely.

The food was pretty good, but they cannot accommodate changes to many of the dishes. The restaurant also does not take reservations so make sure to go early. The Dip Duo was really not good. The 'Knife & Fork' Tuna Burger was delicious. The Tuna Tartare and Shrimp Louie were just okay. Hillstone is definitely better than Honor Bar.

Great spot on PB island. Awesome for lunch and cocktails. Great service . Reasonably priced .. for PB

Went here this past weekend with a friend and I wish I knew about this place sooner. The menu is small but everything we tried was amazing. The thin fries with spicy mayo was the perfect dish to pick at while waiting for the rest of the food. The crispy chicken sandwich was a 10/10, you can't come here without getting it. The kale salad was a top 5 favorite salad for me. The service could have been a little better, our drinks took a while to come out. However, the ambiance is very intimate and relaxing. Definitely would recommend coming here!

The Honor Bar is directly across the intracoastal from West Palm Beach along the Royal Poinciana Parkway traversing the Flagler Memorial Bridge on Palm Beach Island and it certainly feels very upscale. It's in The Royal Poinciana Plaza adjacent to the Palm Beach Grill and in fact you can walk from the restaurant to the Honor Bar on the inside. The Honor Bar is a small place with two distinct bar areas; great service and top notch food. We stopped for dinner prior to attending a concert at the Walter S. Gubelmann Auditorium which we think is in need of an overall revamp (see my review).

Oh Honor Bar, you used to be my fav Love the vibe and love the space but there were some quite disappointing elements of this visit. We were told there would be a 45 min wait time. After 50 minutes we walked in to see if there was availability at the bar (even though we don't drink) and the hostess greeted us, asked "you guys were on the list right?" then proceeded to tell us we had perfect timing because a party didn't shop up so they actually had an open table ready. Not to terrible for a Saturday night. This visit served a few conundrums along with our food items. The first of which being the portion of the chicken meatballs (appetizer) being literally halved, yet being offered for the same price--$12! For three, yes you read that right, three small meatballs (there used to be six!) Our server informed us they changed this quantity offering a week and a half ago and we really couldn't wrap our heads around the reason why. So stay far away from those. Delicious but way, way, way, way over priced. We come here often. And today we found the burger (my fav burger in PB County btw) was smaller than we've experienced on previous visits. This was verified by checking Google images and past reviews. The bun was bigger than the patty. Good thing the flavor was still the same. The emerald kale salad tasted grainy like the greens weren't thoroughly washed I hope that wasn't what it was but I couldn't ignore it. The prime rib sandwich at a $29 price point was the most confusing and disappointing things of the evening. After investigating previous versions of their menu online it used to be called a French dip. This newly titled version came with no au jus. It was replaced with a creamy horseradish sauce. We asked if we could get au jus and were told no, it was only available on the other side of the restaurant (they are connected to the palm beach grille). So that offering was dry and not worth the $29 price tag. It was insulting really. A warning to those wanting to try who have been before but haven't been in a while--your fav may have been altered as well so just ask before hand. I'll still be back for the burger no doubt but not as often. I hope this isn't a sign that they are changing hands or going down hill financially. Again this used to be my fav spot for the burger and vibe but I can't risk being disappointed again for such a hefty price tag. #sad Another review giving it you straight no chaser! Enjoy!

You can never go wrong at the Honor Bar. If you're a fan of Hillstones or Houston's, this if Honor Bar as its younger sibling. Cool, hip, almost "hidden gem" type of vibe for a quick night cap and a simple bite to eat. Service is always amazing with this food group - it stands true with Honor Bar. The salad, the ribs, the skinny fries, the tuna, everything is delicious and there's not one bad thing on the menu. Love to stop here when in WPB!

Recently I dined at the Honor Bar. While it was my 1st visit to this particular Hillstone restaurant, I've been to several of their other venues (R+D Kitchen, Houston's, etc.) in other cities and I'm a total fan :-) Long Story Short: The ambiance is fabulous, and if that doesn't hook you the food will; my entire experience from end-to-end was 1st shelf! Short Story A Little Longer: There's an air of comfort created by the warm, inviting atmosphere. The attention to detail, soft lighting, and cozy seating facilities will put you immediately at ease :-) On to the food! The freshness of their ingredients and the passion for quality will be obvious from your very first bite of whatever you order. Over and above a couple of excellent cocktails, we shared two of their sandwiches for our meal - The Honor Burger and the Crispy Chicken Sandwich. The former is a Masterpiece made with ground Chuck; a verifiable symphony of harmonious textures and flavors. The succulent, juicy patty boasts the perfect char, complemented by the nutty notes of melted cheese that blanket it. Each bite is bursting with flavor, and you'll want to order another as soon as you finished your 1st one :-) Now, let's talk about their Crispy Chicken Sandwich; it's so darn good that it'll leave you craving its crispy goodness long after your last bite. The chicken, tender and succulent, is encased in a perfectly seasoned, golden-brown crust that crackles with each bite. The marriage of textures and the symphony of flavors are nothing short of heavenly! Service was friendly, attentive, and welcoming; we look forward to returning again soon to sample more of their delightful menu items :-)

So dropped in to enjoy a lunch with my wife. The ambience is nice and the food was ok. The chicken on the fried chicken sandwich was good just not a fan of the way it was cut up into four parts and stuck with toothpicks. Macho chicken salad was great and the fries are crispy and hot. It's a bit on the pricey side for me but what do I know. Service was no better than any other place we visit and I am not sure how many more times we would visit here. But working next door kinda makes it a better chance that we will. lol

The ~honorable~ thing for you to do is to stop reading reviews right now & hurry scurry your bum over there for a bevie, some apps, & zerts! You won't regret it! Everything about this place is phenom!

Seriously give me a side piece of my favorite restaurant? I'm down to explore! lol Honor bar is the luncheon version of PB Grill. Burgers are amazing, prime rib sandwich on point and a little dish called Shrimp Louie. Service is always on point. Drinks are great. Seriously just go! Enjoy!

First time at honor bar and it was really nice. The cozy atmosphere was perfect for 2 friends catching up and we split and sandwich and and both were good but the fries were perfect!! They were the long skinny kind and cooked perfectly!! Service was a bit slow but we weren't in a rush so it was fine.

If I could give it ten stars I would. The management here is dialed in and it shows in the execution of their food and service. Can't wait to return again and again.

The food was amazing. Had the special Rutherford tomato salad. Absolutely fabulous. No spoilers. Get it. Also the Kale salad with peanut vinaigrette. Fried Snapper entree ... simply perfect. Service was perfect. Nice comfortable ambiance. Oh yeah. Tasty bourbon on the rocks. Very tasty.

Penny at the bar and Charlotte the redhead were absolutely amazing. Not only great multitaskers, but 10/10 customer service skills. Both extremely hard working, providing a top tier experience, clearly very adept at creating a quality experience while juggling 100 different tasks at once. Great food (get the meatballs), outstanding dirty gin martini, and vesper martini.

Devani served us this weekend and she was excellent! Food was great! Atmosphere was lively! Service 10/10!

Why I'll go back: A great way to feed your Hillstone fix without a reservation at neighboring Palm Beach Grill You HAVE to order: The Emerald Kale Salad - maybe my favorite kale salad anywhere! Tony's Tip: the sandwiches are pretty big. I think the play here is to pop in for a bite and do two apps plus a sandwich to share. You'll feel plenty full, and so will your wallet. Having been a huge fan of Palm Beach Grill as well as its sister restaurants Hillstone and Houston's, we finally stopped into Honor Bar last night after a little window shopping in the Royal Poinciana Plaza. Pleased to see there was plenty of booth and bar seating at 6:00 p.m. on a Thursday evening. The atmosphere is quite loungey, with dark wood and leather booths, plus ample bar seating. They had classic crooner music piped in, which really completed the classy but relaxed vibe. We chose bar seats, ordered drinks, and perused the abbreviated menu. While somewhat smaller than the PBG menu next door, many of the dishes are also offered here, plus a few unique items. My eyes immediately went to the deviled eggs (a bit of a culinary fetish of mine), and of course, that Kale salad. Deviled eggs were solid, though I'd warn that they had a pretty robust flavor - couldn't put my finger on it but sort of a spicy tomato (see pic). The kale salad is can't miss - my wife and I are addicted to the peanut vinaigrette dressing drizzled all over it, and the kale is not bitter (a failing of some salads using this leaf). For dinner, we shared the crispy chicken sandwich, which they cut in two for us. Gotta say I was pretty glad we decided to share it, as one half was plenty for each of us. The kitchen did everything right with this: hot juicy chicken enveloped in a crispy batter-fried coating that held together, topped with a stacking of chilled tomato, provolone cheese, and slaw, and sandwiched by a melt-in-your-mouth sesame bun. Again, plenty for both of us. I'll note that the French Dip sandwich is very popular here - next visit for sure! As for the bill, for two starters, the sandwich, a beer and side of fries, we got out of there for less than $80, including tip. Quite the bargain in the land of Palm Beach! All in all, The Honor Bar totally lived up to my expectations. You can set yours high, and I'm confident they'll do an "honorable" job meeting them.

Macho salad is fire. Trust me and ask for extra croutons. Servers are always friendly. Expect a wait as place is typically busy. Great location for lunch meetings.

Romantic and amazing service. Just loved the experience my wife and I had dining here. Drinks were on point and so was the food. Situated in a cozy luxury plaza. The chicken meatballs were so tender and delicious. Deviled eggs are perfection to enjoy with a cocktail. The macho salad and sings sandwich are always winners! Can't wait to come back

It was okay. I really expected it to wow me. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing. Nice ambiance but not sure I would go back.

The Honor Bar is always a solid backup restaurant when your other plans fall through. No reservations makes this an easy spot for those ad hoc and audible evenings when you're around Royal Poinciana Plaza. Is the food spectacular? No. Is the food fairly priced? No. Is the ambiance and experience a main draw? No. But, you do know that you're stepping into a restaurant with consistently decent classic dishes, good service, and easy parking. That makes this place a big draw if you're not looking to explore new tastes, dishes, or experiences. The fried chicken sandwich is a classic and definitely decent although I wish it came with a larger piece of fried chicken. Check out my recent review of Ekiben in Baltimore then you'll know what I mean. The beef rib is a definite pass. Not much meat and no real bbq / smokiness. They were tender but you really shouldn't need gravy on a beef rib. Makes no sense.

Oh the best lemon martini in West palm. And the guacamole and chips were great to munch on.

Food was amazing. Service was lack luster. Service appeared very attentive at first, but then placed drink order and waited and waited, had to ask about it and then it finally came over 20 min wait and halfway through the meal. Also fries came halfway through the meal.

A simple but nice menu, but if you want to stay and have a cappuccino or tea, forget it, they ask if you'll please move to the bar...they love to rush you out! Hard to abide by this knowing they want to move you along expeditiously! I can't recommend the Honor Bar knowing the help is eyeing my table!

We stumbled across this quaint, high-end bar and loved it! The service was stellar, the bartender was knowledgeable, food was delish and the vibe gave you cool cat vibes. We had the Jackrabbit and Matthew made me a virgin mojito so I wouldn't feel left out. The Duo Dip was amazing! That jalapeño dip was top tier!

Uncharacteristically bad service today. Took quite a long time to be seated even though there were plenty of open tables. Server was inattentive. Basically absent. We watched our order sit out for 10-15 minutes and not surprisingly, it was cold when it was finally served. Very disappointing day at an establishment that we normally love. Poor service should never be excused especially considering the aspirational prices here. The food was really good even though it was cold. I can only imagine it would have been phenomenally good if served properly. Btw, we tipped our server generously even though she did not deserve it. Do better!

Good food, and the ambience is just how I like my bars - small, intimate, dark wood, dim lighting. No reservations but usually able to walk in and get a table. Great burger and great chicken sandwich. Sadly, their menu never seems to change.

Love,love,love this place. Quality food, quality service and great ambiance.Great for a 'date night' or family get together. Chicken sandwich my fave. Hang on... burger is unforgettable!! I've lived and worked in West palm and Palm Beach for the past 32 years and there's never been a place like this. Feel totally safe recomm

Incredible bloody Mary. I highly recommend the Prime Rib sandwich. Meat is excellent and bread rises to a pastry experience. Horseradish sauce is tasty ... well done.

Always the goat. Had BEEF ribs this time around which were incredible. Hillstone always kills it with the sauces and Honor Bar is no exception. Also had 3 salads (macho salad, emerald kale, and one more) which were all great. Staff as well. Couldn't imagine a bad experience at the honor bar ! Big shoutout

I felt honored to go to The Honor Bar because of unicorns and shit. I didn't expect such a cozy and stylish upscale bar and lounge with appetizing and gratifying bar eats like their deviled eggs and burgers. We happened to be at a sake tasting at the nearby Virginia Philip Wine Spirits & Academy and wanted to find a place to enjoy a quick sandwich or bite to eat. While looking quite fancy from the outside with its tinted windows and dark interior, the Honor Bar turned out to be more an upscale New American bar and lounge that did not disappoint. Having deviled eggs on the menu will never disappoint us as these were made with love and understanding. The burger they had on the menu was class. Mouthwatering and luscious, the burger did the trick.

There burger is AMAZING! Highly recommend this restaurant. I can't wait to go back and try the rest of the menu!

Love Honor Bar Palm Beach. Lunch is my favorite. I'm lobbying for them to put back on the menu The French Dip Prime Rib Sandwich. They changed it to a Prime Rib Sandwich. No Au jus . Big Mistake in my opinion.

We were completely delighted by how enjoyable our first visit to The Honor Bar was! The space is cozy, classy, and totally welcoming; the service is friendly and completely on-point.  Arriving early on a weekend afternoon, the restaurant was starting to fill up, but we were fortunate to be seated with only a five minute wait :-) Our perky and very friendly server gave us menus immediately, and brought our drink orders right away.  She then gave us some very helpful suggestions, we placed our orders, and leaned back to sip our drinks and await our meal.  We shared everything - here's what we ordered: - The Dip Duo - The guacamole has lots of chunky avocado pieces and a generous helping of lime; the queso is made with fresh cheese, and has a uniquely addicting flavor to it.  They're always happy to bring more chips when you demolish the first batch - it only took us about five minutes to make the whole thing disappear :-) - An Amazing French Dip sandwich - What's amazing about it?  It's served on a perfectly toasted roll, the roast beef is juicy, lean, and hot, and the Au Ju dipping sauce is stratospherically delicious!! - Ding's Crispy Chicken sandwich - Almost perfectly executed, this sandwich is one of the best of its type I've ever had; I recommend it highly! - French Fries - they're a bit thicker here than at many other rerstaurants I've eaten at recently; they taste like the excellent hybrid that might result if you crossed the fries from In-N-Out and McDonald's.  These were fried to a golden brown, wonderfully crispy, with just the right amount of salt. Our dining experience at the Honor Bar was five stars all the way!  I think we've found a new Happy Place, and I look forward to returning :-)

This is a rather busy place in Palm Beach immediately next-door to the Palm Beach Grill. It's open for lunch and dinner and is quite busy. Didn't really care for this place for several reasons. First and foremost is the little design of the tables. They have you kind of cramped next to other guests, which I don't care for. So, at this particular visit I was able to listen to the ladies across to me discuss Pap smears. Surely they knew that a foot and a half away. there were two men sitting there. We could not but help listen to their conversation. Each of the three women had lengthy discussions regarding such matters. I now know so much about Pap smears. Information I never thought I would obtain in my life. If the Pap smear lecture wasn't enough to make it to never return, it was certainly the menu choices. We really just wanted something simple to eat for lunch such as a sandwich or a wrap or a salad. They didn't have basic salads like you would expect, such as Caesar salad or regular garden salad, so I opted for something they called the macho salad. not really clear what was macho about it. But I certainly do not care for it. Obviously, our taste aren't as others are, as I said, this place was packed.

If you're looking for an elegant, intimate place to meet, greet, and eat, the Honor Bar is, on all counts, really sweet. The menu may not be deep in choices, but they lean into perfection heavily on what they serve up. The prime rib French dip may be the best one that I've ever had. The Shrimp Louis begins with perfectly cooked oversized shrimps that are just meaty. Mmm. Their Louis dressing is one of the better ones that I've had because it's scratch-made. Service was amazing! Our bartender rocked! One of the best best Manhattans that I've had. The only ding on the Honor Bar is the bar itself. The inventory of this bar does little to honor the upscale space, or A+ bar eats, with such MBA sanitized stock of middling or market-standard alcohol. Sure, some brand-bamboozled-Barbi is going to play it safe with that Grey Goose martini, but, especially on Palm Beach Island, you have people both with the means and experience who like a better bourbon, more eclectic jenever, etc. They will find the shelves about as exciting as a tree sloth taking a nap. Parking is either the shopping center's lot or one of several valet stations. Definitely a cool bar. If only they would A game their bar to craft levels and give their bartenders more tools for happiness that would be badass!

We were sat within 5 minutes of arrival on a Sunday afternoon. Drinks took 20 minutes to arrive and apps took another 15min on top of that. Our server was friendly, however, he disappeared for long moments in time...so long we thought he must have left for the day. We had to ask another server for our check and were surprised when our original server brought it to us since we were sure he was gone. Food and drinks were good, just pricey and took a long time to arrive. 5/10

Manager came over to try to make things right but they just got worse... 1. Food - blah. Just blah. There are so many other restaurants in Palm Beach although this is on the lower price point, but you get what you pay for. 2. Ambiance - dark and busy. But a good location. Easy parking. Expect to wait but you can browse the little shops while you do. 3. Service - lost ANY points I would have given here. Immediately after we finished our meal (under 45 minutes..and we had just waited 25 for a table), we got the check. We asked for a dessert menu only to be told with MAJOR attitude, "well we have a bit of a wait list but did you want coffee or something? No dessert menu. 2 dirty tea cups, and then waited 35 minutes before we had to ask for the check and got yet another snarky response. You couldn't pay me to come back here. Staff needs a good training in customer service.

Yummiest food and great service. Ambiance was warm and inviting. The burger was great :)

Service was excellent. The fries were really thin. Other than that, the food was ok. Burger could use some improvement, but the fries were ridiculously thin, like those shoestring fries you get in a can. They should use them as toothpicks.

Seated quickly as was told 30 minutes. Server was prompt to take drink order. Very pleasant and offered her feedback. Came back to take food order. Had the chicken sandwiches, salad and prime rib sandwich. All were first notch. We really like it here and will return with friends.

The cheeseburger is amazing! Love the area and place. Not much items on the menu , but whats on is good

Amazing food! Great service! And I love the no children and cell phone policy which makes for a present dinning experience!

Food was so great. It was my first time having tuna tartare and I thought they were tomato's it was delish. The french dip au jus was also yummy along with the fries. Super tasty and tender meat. The ambiance was good but a 30 min wait to sit. Service was also wonderful and attentive. I'd love to come back to try the drinks and more food.

Does it get any better than this place? I don't think so. Food and service are beyond excellent each and every time.

This was an amazingly delightful experience. We were a party of eight, so although somewhat squished in a banquette, (no chairs) the food defied any inconvenience. The area is small and cooks are easily viewed as they work. Among us we chose a wide variety of offerings and each was met with great approval and sharing. One had the tuna burger which was absolutely delicious, Crab Louie spectacular and the ribs just right. There are no reservations for this very small restaurant, so be your toes and ready when the door opens.
