The inaugural Taste of West Palm Beach brought 800 guests and 30 restaurants to CityPlace on October 16, raising $300,000 in support for the Palm Beach County Food Bank.
The sold-out festival expanded the former Taste of CityPlace into a citywide celebration of West Palm Beach’s growing restaurant scene.
30 Restaurants, One Night
Guests sampled dishes from local favorites and new arrivals, including Eataly, Fuku, Maman, Harry’s, Galley, Moody Tongue Sushi, El Camino and more.
The evening also offered a preview of Los Mochis, the London-based restaurant planning its first U.S. location in West Palm Beach in 2027.
Beyond the food, the festival featured live entertainment, chef demonstrations and interactive experiences, including a Ferrari-inspired activation with Eataly.
$300,000 for the Palm Beach County Food Bank
The event generated $50,000 in ticket proceeds, matched by the Related Ross Foundation for a $100,000 contribution. Bank of America added a separate $200,000 grant, bringing the total support to $300,000.
Organizers have already announced that Taste of West Palm Beach will return in October 2027.
