Atlantic Avenue Restaurants in Delray
Tryst Restaurant
Since I enjoyed the
Grand Opening at Tryst Restaurant
so much in January, it only made sense that I go back to this Delray restaurant for dinner!
Even though we didn’t make reservations, reservations are highly recommended for those of you who don’t want to wait.
When they took our names at the door, we were given the choice of patio dining in their beautiful courtyard or indoor dining. When I peaked outside to see their patio dining, it did look enticingly romantic! Maybe if I were on a date, but not tonight. Tonight, I wanted to mingle! While we were waiting for our table, we sat at Tryst's fabulous bar, enjoying our cocktails, and after two cocktails… Hey, who cares where you sit! So, the bar soon turned into our dinner table.
However, I will say the entire restaurant was so busy (that’s a good thing), and so loud, I’m not so sure a table would have served us any better. And besides, I was out to mingle and meet people and I’ve always found sitting at the bar is best for that.
Our DinnersLinda had the “six pack of fresh shucked cold water oysters”. She was told they came with bread but then later we were told they were out of bread.
Yikes for the restaurant, and too bad for Linda, but I suppose this means they had a busy dinner, so great for Tryst, right?! Linda couldn’t understand how she was suppose to soak up the tasty, yummy buttery sauce. After some persistence, our server provided some pita bread that seemed to appear from nowhere. We never did know the secret behind where it came from but it made Linda happy and that's what mattered! Louise had the “baby greens salad in house vinaigrette.” As you can see from the photo it was very colorful. 
I ordered “fresh garlic shrimp on blistered tomato and spinach risotto,” a special off their special board. I'm a picky eater because I try to avoid gluten-filled foods, so this was the perfect dish for me! And I love risotto and I love shrimp. It was deliciously yummy!

We tried the Blue Point oysters with caviar, which were very fresh and delicious. I had the daily special fish, a Wahoo steak served over red cabbage with jicama slaw and a spicy mustard sauce. Delicious! My wife had the fish tacos, which she also loved. Tryst Restaurant in Delray is a great place to take friends for a night out on the town. Not the romantic, stuffy kind of place, but more of a fun, upscale neighborhood pub on Atlantic Avenue. Beautiful courtyard outside with a banyan tree in the center and rustic, cozy interior. Besides the food, the beer selection is really unbelievable with lots of craft beer on tap and in the bottle. Tryst Restaurant has an amazing 58 craft beers to choose from!
