As you scout summer restaurant deals, there’s one to add to your list — and one to take off:
✅ West Palm’s retro-chic sensation Mary Lou’s just landed on USA Today’s 2025 Bars of the Year list — making it one of the top 29 bars in America. With velvet booths, celebrity sightings, and cocktails that double as art, it’s officially a must-visit.
❌ Meanwhile, Konro, Palm Beach County’s first Michelin-starred restaurant, has been removed from the guide following its sudden closure and the chef’s arrest — a dramatic fall for what was once the region’s culinary crown jewel.
