Norwood's Restaurant & Treehouse Bar

How to book: reserve the main dining room for weekend dinners + brunch; the elevated Treehouse Bar is a walk-in scene (arrive early for a spot at sunset). The play: a sunset drink up in the Treehouse Bar, then seafood or a hand-cut steak; browse the wine shop. Weekend brunch (Sat–Sun 11–3) is a local draw.

Best meal: Dinner (fresh seafood or a hand-cut steak) with a pre-dinner drink in the treetop Treehouse Bar, or the weekend brunch. It's the old-Florida-institution experience as much as the plate — live music, wine shop, tree canopy. Confirm the current menu + venue hours on site.

Who it’s NOT for: diners wanting a modern/minimalist room (this is a characterful old-Florida institution) anyone wanting oceanfront views (it's a beachside-but-not-on-the-water landmark) those who dislike live-music liveliness at the bar budget-only diners at the steak end
