Topside At The Beacon - Jupiter

Fantastic drinks. Had a Paper Airplane. A must have if you hadn't had one yet. Table side, a much different story. Becareful of who seats you and when you are seated. Only rely on hostess.

Visited with my daughter and her significant other during the Christmas holidays. Daughter on crutches and they had us use a back elevator that opened into the kitchen area, seemed to be a utility elevator. Not sure if there was another one. For a short person, the casual couch-style seating arrangements aren't too comfortable, nor is the high top seating for those of us with short leg syndrome! The cheese and charcuterie platter was very good, (was good size for 3), we requested additional bread, which was a little slow to be delivered. We sampled 2 soft cocktails and they were both refreshing. Limited menu.

I went to the Beacon for my birthday. My dinner was great, other peoples dinner was mediocre. The staff started out great but then after food was brought out he kinda forgot about us. I also didn't get two appetizers that I ordered. The server did not know I didn't get them and still charged us. I had to let him know and they ended up taking it off, which is the correct thing to do. But for an expensive restaurant that's suppose to be fine dining those are mistakes that should not happen.

I have visited the Beacon twice in the past month to celebrate my wife and friend's birthday and mine. I can say without hesitation this is one of the best restaurant experiences I have had in the past five years in South Florida. Beacon offers inventive cocktails, delicious entrees, delectable desserts, and exemplary service in Jupiter across the water from the Jupiter Lighthouse. When you go to Beacon, the experience is world class from start to finish, starting with the gorgeous shell-shaped bread that is made from scratch. All the cocktails I have had on my two excursions to Beacon have been brilliant from the classy Vesper to the glorious Bullfighter. But my favorites so far have been the bourbon and rye fusion of the Concrete Jungle and the scotch and liqueur explosion of the Blood Sand that includes curaçao, house-made vermouth, and blood orange. Additionally, they have a nice collection of spirits overall between the available Blanton's single barrel and orange limoncello. For starters, you can't go wrong with their cold-water oysters, Stracchiatella cheese, or the charred Spanish octopus. The cheese is served with amazing toasted bread, while the octopus is grilled to perfection and served with smoked potato, treviso, and black garlic. The oysters were so savory, clean, and fresh that you could eat several of them without taking a breath. For main courses, their pasta dishes are supreme, with the standouts being the Agnolotti Coniglio, stuffed with glorious rabbit and served with a rich cream sauce, and the Paccheri con escargot was a savory paradise of goodness with the saffron hollandaise sauce. If you have someone to split this, order a side of crispy fingerling potatoes with garlic aioli; it is the world. I have had the privilege of trying three of the four desserts that Beacon currently has available. My favorite of the three is the chocolate bombe, but you could do just as well with the tiramwoo or the deconstructs Meyer lemon tart. Each are exquisitely made like a work of art that you could stare at before devouring, before washing down with an espresso martini. Beacon is special. We will return for more culinary adventures as this place is a masterclass of excellence.

Truly awful. Start with the $50+ entrees. That they burn to death and explain because they use oak fires... nonsense. The salad was also totally off. The explanation the new guy . The pastas for mid $20s were worth 4 forkfuls. Worse still they sucked. See pics! I did complain and they did discount the bill. That said it 's was AWFUL. Service was spotty as well. For the prices these people are bat sh#t crazy. The food is way off.
