This place has 3 floors, so we had dinner in the first floor. The food was delicious, it was full of flavor. We had the pasta with shrimp and lobster and also a caesar salad with shirt steak....After dinner, we head to the roof top and ordered some drinks, their drinks are a bit pricey. But, we had a good time up there; the DJ plays a little bit of everything. The view is not much to mention, but I enjoyed the vibe.

Was a great experience. My first time going. It was a little to dark for me at first but then they turn the light up a little. But love the different level and different ways to have fun at a club. Really nice

Great spot. Play different types of music on different levels so something for everyone. Drinks are expensive, but similar to everywhere else in West Palm. Overall a fun night out. Venue itself is pretty cool especially first floor and rooftop bars.

Ahhhhhh! Sundays are the day! Go to brunch at 1pm, lose track of time and end up leaving at 12am. Yea... awesome Sunday! DJs play the same music and both floors sometimes.

Best staff hands down on the entire Clematis downtown scene. Taco Tuesday here is a must! Sporting events are great to dine and watch my games. This is my favorite place to have a drink, dance, and as always a good time.

Great Restaurant and club! Great atmosphere and friendly staff! You can enjoy your dinner/ happy hour and then go dance. They have a dj in each floor ( 3 floor). The last floor is a terrace with a bar! Fantastic place to enjoy west palm beach by night!

Taco Tuesday. granted, we may have been oldest couple there. But sorta treated that way, too. After endulging and buying overpriced "happy hour" drinks, thinking prix fixe racos tacos in town much better get (racos may have better looking bar, too). wanted to love it and become a go to place. but nope.

Banko Cantina has a great atmosphere, it has fun and modern decor. Great for picture taking. I went there to enjoy the nightlife...the bartenders make great drinks. Younger crowd of people in their 20s and 30s.

I love that upstairs is kinda like a lounge/club ! In there, at 4 PM it feels like it's 8 😂😂 Fun place!The food was ok. Not the greatest but it's a nice environment for a group of people who wants to catch up, chill, and dance the day away ðŸ‘ðŸ¾ðŸ˜Š

Great food and got to love their holiday spirit. Their decorations are beyond amazing and heart warming. The skewers we ordered made a simple food feel more fancy and elegant.

Excellent roof top party on a sunny day. Worth visiting when you are in West Palm Beach.

Food was good but service was invisible and it wasn't busy.

Taco Tuesday is a great evening of libations and entertaining karaoke mixed with modern beats. There is that 1 individual that will step up to the microphone and sing a Whitney Houston track that will make your jaw drop.The best servers are Justin and Amanda. Always great and they will look out for you. The manager Javier is excellent. Ask for him and he will help you instantly. Don't miss Taco Tuesday. I suggest reservations. It is the busiest place in WPB on a Tuesday night
Matthew Jones
Anthony, Terrence and Justin were amazing. Rarely do you see great customer service in a club. Ask there name and wonders happen. Great time!
Gray Samuel
The atmosphere was perfect, service was fantastic and the food was really good. Homey, funky, warm, not modern looking but feel modern, if that makes sense. I'd go back for sure

So on a whim my friends and I decided to go there for Taco Tuesday. I reserved a table for 10 but for the 9pm slot because that is all that was available. Re really wanted the 8pm reservation. So I reached out to them on FB Messenger asking if they would be able to give us an 8pm reservation instead of the 9pm and the accommodated with no issue. I checked out the reviews before I went and was kinda skeptical. I read how they over charge.... They charge extra for using credit cards... ect.None of that happened. I brought cash to keep it simple and got charged for everything I ordered.The prices are fair. The food is good. The drinks are great. Kathy/Cathy our server was on point. She was very friendly and attentive. I look forward to eating there again. Maybe I will try brunch there.FYI.... Parties of 5 or more may not spit their checks and parties of 6 or more will have 18% gratuity included.

I haven't actually stepped in the door but was walking by and they had an incredible set up for Christmas which I appreciate. Video mapping with a fireplace inside and elves Looking Through the Windows ... this will be the tech Christmas decorations to beat in Downtown West Palm Beach.
Morning Daycare

Sunday brunch is a must. Ask for Luis the manager. Great staff.

Joe!!! On the third floor, Mezzanine. Is the best!!Hands down. This is our second time here and he is amazing! He’s great for bottle service and will only keep coming if him and his associate keeps the hospitality while here. Just moved here from VA and it took us a while to find a place called home when we want to party!! #Joe is the best!!

It's tex-mex all the way. I assume one has to adapt to the palate of the target clientele, so do not expect the real deal, although it's closer than many other "mexican" places. Having said that, the place is magnificent, very well decorated, with impressive artwork in the walls. It has a full bar with whatever you would want to drink and there's even a dancefloor in the second floor. I was also told that there's one of the best brunch of West Palm Beach on Sundays, so you want to come to this spot.

Great place to eat, good bar to drink and an awesome place to club at great music♥ï¸

On the positive side... a beautifully appointed old bank building converted into a restaurant. The owners obviously invested heavily, creating eye candy in terms of fixtures & fittings. But, we go to restaurants for good food & service. The food was nicely presented, but bland & tasteless. Service was indifferent. Ordered two pints of draft beer - server brought bottles. When asked about beer on tap, he said "I don't think it's working." The restaurant should get 1-2 stars. They also have a rooftop bar & a nightclub - maybe those are great (5 stars)? I'm not sure, but we won't be going back for lunch or supper. Nice place though.

Love going to Banko! From the staff to the management to the owners, you can always count on exceptional service and of course amazing food! And their top shelf margarita is definitely my favorite! Great atmosphere for a fun evening!
Steven Liscinsky
Great appetizers during happy hour. Tacos and cheese, ceviche and quesadillas were delicious.
Trevor B.
Great spot for taco Tuesday, happy hour. Tacos were warm and freshy made. $2 chip and Salsa was added to our bill, they just brought it to our table so we taught it was free or included guess not. There was also an unexplained service charge (added to the cc total charge, not on the first bill brought over) which was odd and again not expected since we were a table of two. But since it is under $2 again I ignore it. But kinda odd and unexpected.
Vanessa Johnson
Nice spot for Sunday brunch in my area, but $22 for a cup of Hennessy with redbull is a little ridiculous
William Worley
We like the atmosphere here We can get a little loud but the food and the drinks are pretty good The service is always prompt and makes for a nice pit stop while out and about in West Palm for a quick drink or a bite to eat. If you go late night it's for sure a younger crowd and can get a little rowdy.

Great place for food drinks and live music
