    Loved the options for the charcuterie boards. We just came by for a bottle of wine and a board. Cute place. Waitresses we're very attentive and friendly.

    We ate here two nights during our week in Palm Beach. Both nights the food and service exceeded our expectations. Try the cauliflower and fresh mozzarella with fresh tomatoes. Old movies projected on the wall, live music on Tuesday. Highly recommend

    Great little wine bar with outdoor seating. Extensive wine list and amazing assortment of fine charcuterie options. I was in wine heaven. Service was spectacular. Staff is extremely knowledgeable and will allow you to taste so that you can pick your ideal wine and cheese board. I would definitely recommend.

    We held my sister's bridal shower at The Blind Monk this past summer and I've been meaning to leave them a review ever since! The team at TBM are just fantastic. They were very flexible and easy to work with before the event, but I was shocked with my experience the day of. They were OUTSTANDING! I am an event planner as a profession and this was by far the best venue I have ever worked with. Not only was the food amazing, but they were so attentive, so accommodating, so kind to the guests... I just can't recommend them enough. The photos I have attached were ones taken by Lauren, one of the owners. Thank you to The Blind Monk team for making my job as an event planner SOOOO much easier and for being a part of my sister's day.

    One of my favorite places. Low key, chill wine bar with nice selection of small plates, charcuterie, couple of dessert as well. Wine selection is interesting and atmosphere amazing. Nice to have a glass of wine after work or meet with some friends...you'll never feel rushed here. Their cauliflower and double baked eggplant are to die for!

    Tapas, Wine & Jazz. There is a lot to like in this intimate space. Check the board, Monday is one of the Jazz nights. We were delightfully surprised. $7 each cover for the band was well worth it. Great wine & cheese selections. We enjoyed the chicken liver pate, Spanish tortilla and roasted vegetables with goat cheese. It is pretty amazing what these folks put out from a small prep area. The wait staff was excellent and professional, a pleasure. We will be back..

    This is a hidden gem. After living in this area for years I’ve had many friends recommend that I go in here and try their food and wine selection. It’s taken many years but I finally got here!. We enjoyed a crisp Sauvignon Blanc that was recommended by the bartender followed by a variety of small plates that were all very unique and delicious. This is a great girls night or date place. The vibe was chill but the feeling was slightly elevated.

    The white sangria was my favorite. Super yummy and light. Also they had these little caprese toasts yummy and fresh. Nice atmosphere, definitely date night worthy. Get there for happy hour 💗🥂.

    Always a positive experience here! Such a great vibe and relaxed atmosphere. Our server, Lauren, was amazing! She was friendly and efficient. I appreciated her knowledge of wines. So very helpful and attentive. My wife and I ordered the Liver Pate and the Turkey Meatballs. They are our favorites! We look forward to visiting again soon. Thank you!!

    This place is a must if you're in West Palm Beach! The food is delicious and the service is great. We couldn't choose what was our favorite, we tried almost everything, my top three would be: the eggplant, the cauliflower and the yuca gnocchi. The outside space is very nice and cozy. We'll definitely come back! (Sadly, we forgot to take pictures as we were busy enjoying it! Next time, I'll make sure we take some)

  • 5/5 Jacob F. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a wonderful experience at The Blind Monk. The service was great and they were very helpful with selecting wines by the glass. All the food was incredible--we got a cheese board (pictured), the chicken liver pate, the Manti, and the semifreddo for dessert. I'd highly recommend this restaurant!

  • 5/5 Samantha 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful atmosphere and great customer service. We did the pick 3 with a combination of 2 cheese, 1 meat and wine. Food came out fresh, hot, and fast. We had the best waitress who made her own clothes ❤. Definitely recommend

    Beautiful little place in downtown West Palm with an amazing wine and cheese selection. A spacious and quaint outside sitting area as well as inside seating. Great chill vibe.

  • 5/5 Hannah H. 2 years ago on Google
    Love this place! No matter what you choose for your charcuterie board it’s all delicious. Great wine choices that paid well with everything! A must visit for me every time I’m in WPB.

  • 5/5 Danielle A. 1 year ago on Google
    This is seriously one of my favorite places. I truly have no complaints as I’ve been here multiple times and each time, I am met with quality small bites, delicious wine, fantastic service, and an enjoyable atmosphere. I love their Malbec as it’s one of my favorite varietals. You can’t go wrong with a charcuterie board to share and a glass (or 3) of wine. This is the perfect happy hour spot or post-dinner drink spot. I am also a fan that their wine selection is not limited to American wine for those of us who prefer specific regions of the world.

  • 5/5 Justin Z. 7 years ago on Google
    Simply delightful atmosphere, especially with the live music. All the food we got was super delicious. The bathrooms even had hand towels! Very cute, cozy place for brunch, well thought out. Can only imagine it being better for dinner. There's also a movie projector, not sure what it's used for.

  • 5/5 Pollachinkin 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere as always. Seated right away. Charcuterie board was amazing and and Champagne selected by our waitress was a perfect match for our board.

  • 5/5 Chris S. 6 months ago on Google
    Fantastic cheese/charcuterie board, and great vibe! Loved that they brought extra bread without us even asking.

  • 5/5 Yuqi W. 7 months ago on Google
    Perfect lil quiet wine bar, I would recommend it if you’d like a night out with old friends to catch up, or just weekdays chilling wine night. Besides, it’s easy to park, meters or one nice garage just across the street.
