Guy Fieri didn’t have to travel far for his latest stop on “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.”
The Food Network host, who owns a home on nearby Singer Island, spotlighted Riviera Beach’s Wok by the Beach on the June 12 episode, “Cajun, Asian, and ’Cue.”
The restaurant, led by chef-owner Kritsada Limpanuwat, blends sushi, Thai influences and creative seafood dishes in a casual setting just steps from the beach.
It marks the sixth Palm Beach County restaurant featured on the show this season, capping a strong local run for the long-running series.
Wok by the Beach stands out in an area known for seafood-heavy menus, offering a menu that ranges from wok-fired fried rice to over-the-top lobster creations.

Fieri’s visit highlights not only the dishes but also the chef behind them — a self-made restaurateur whose journey began in Thailand before leading him to South Florida kitchens.
Now, with a national audience tuning in, the small Singer Island-area spot is stepping into the spotlight, giving viewers a look at one of Palm Beach County’s most distinctive neighborhood restaurants.
