Description
Palm Beach Grill is in fact a Houston's in disguise, one of the large chain of restaurants owned by Hillstone. The Town of Palm Beach made
Hillstone change the name when it opened in 1999 because this diamond-
studded beach resort won't give permits to chain restaurants, but
Hillstone has some policies of its own: Bartenders are forbidden to serve shots. The great joke, of course, is that PB Grill is arguably the most popular restaurant in a town famous for the profligacy of its lushes. During season, incorrigible dipsomaniacs reserve weeks in advance for a Saturday-night table here. And with good reason. From the cheeseburger to the "Silver Service" hot dog right through the grilled artichoke, prime rib, rotisserie chicken, rib-eye steak, deviled eggs, shoestring fries, and buttery red snapper to the fabulous key lime and banana cream pie, the food here is absolutely perfect. If only this touchstone grill would start a chain reaction.
