Fodor's Expert Review 32 East

Although restaurants come and go every year on Atlantic Avenue, 32 East remains one of the best—if not the best—in Delray Beach. An ever-changing daily menu defines modern American cuisine. Depending on what is fresh and plentiful, you might indulge in oak-fired organic dates and pears wrapped in bacon or perfectly prepared cumin-chili-spiced cobia over black-bean-and-tomato salad. Medium-tone wood accents and dim lighting make this brasserie seem cozy. There's a packed bar in front, an open kitchen in back, and patio seating on the sidewalk.

If you splurge on one dinner in Delray, make it 32 East.
