Ristorante Loren

About Ristorante Loren

Doors open at noon every day of the week, which makes this as much a long lunch address as a dinner one — and on Fridays and Saturdays the kitchen and bar run through to 1am, so a table booked at nine has no reason to rush. The cooking is Italian, served at table with a lounge and chilled house soundtrack kept low enough to talk over, and there's a private dining option for groups who want the door closed. Thursday through Saturday is when the West Palm address fills up, drawing a mix of Dubai residents, Western European and Middle Eastern regulars, and visitors staying on the Palm; smart casual is the expectation and valet takes the car at the door. Prices sit in the mid band, which is modest for this stretch of coast, and it trades year round rather than seasonally.
