Ethereal is open in Pineapple Grove, Delray Beach, occupying roughly 8,500 square feet in the arts-and-dining district off Atlantic Avenue. The project pairs designer Nick Alain with Chef Estuardo Mira and operates nightly from 4 to 11 PM.
The concept is built around a programmatic arc: per the operator's Instagram, the space begins as a refined dinner service and shifts into a high-energy nightlife destination as the evening progresses. That dual-mode structure — kitchen-driven early, atmosphere-driven late — within a single 8,500-square-foot room is the central premise of the venue.
Alain is credited as the designer. The operator describes the interiors as "immersive" and the cocktail program as "dramatic." Neither term is defined further in the source. Chef Estuardo Mira runs the kitchen. The source does not detail the dinner menu, though the 4-to-11 window and the nightlife-forward framing suggest a full service program rather than an early-cutoff kitchen.
The prior tenant of the Pineapple Grove space is not identified in the source. The district — concentrated along NE 2nd Avenue north of Atlantic Avenue — is Delray Beach's arts-and-dining corridor, and an 8,500-square-foot single-operator footprint represents a substantial commitment to the strip.
Ethereal is open nightly. Whether the dual-mode programming holds consistently across the full 4-to-11 window — dinner service transitioning into a late-night room — will determine whether the concept lands as a restaurant that stays open late or a nightlife venue with a serious kitchen behind it.
