Everything You Need to Know About Flavor South Florida 2025
September in South Florida is the tastiest month of the year. Flavor South Florida, the state’s oldest and largest restaurant month, returns from September 1–30, 2025. More than a hundred restaurants across Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast—from Port St. Lucie down to Boca Raton—will offer special three‑course prix-fixe menus starting around $25 for lunch and topping out at $65 for dinner. Whether you’re a South Florida local or visiting, the event is designed to deliver affordable fine dining while boosting off‑season traffic for restaurants.

Tips for Making the Most of Flavor South Florida
- Reserve early! Popular restaurants and weekend slots sell out quickly.
- Opt for weekday dining if you want more flexibility or hotel savings.
- Follow @flavorsouthflorida on social media for menu teasers, chef interviews, and last‑minute openings.
- Pair your dining adventures with local attractions—think beaches, art walks, and the West Palm Beach Food Tour, which offers a 20 percent discount in September.
Why You Should Go
- A record‑setting lineup. The Palm Beaches reports that the 2025 edition features a record of 101 participating restaurants spread along a 122‑mile stretch. This is the chance to discover new favorites, from upscale spots like Café Boulud and Honeybelle to hidden gems such as Driftwood (don’t miss its coconut‑avocado flan).
- Affordable indulgence. Lunch menus start at around $25, and dinners can be had for $39–$65, making Michelin‑rated dining accessible. Many restaurants create exclusive dishes just for Flavor month, so you’re tasting culinary creativity at a bargain.
- Staycation perks. Several resorts—like PGA National Resort and The Singer—pair room discounts with Flavor dining packages. It’s the perfect excuse to book a mini‑getaway and sample multiple menus in one weekend.
- Support local dining. Last year, Flavor South Florida generated $1.3 million for local restaurants and attracted over 300,000 diners. By participating, you’re helping local chefs test new dishes and sustain staff during the slow tourism season.
