Del Mar Mediterranean – NORA District

Detail Plumbing participated in the execution of the plumbing systems for Del Mar Mediterranean, a fine dining restaurant located in the NORA District of West Palm Beach, Florida. The project corresponded to a high-end commercial build-out for a Mediterranean culinary brand recognized for its hospitality experience, detailed design, and upscale service.

As a full-service restaurant featuring a main bar, private dining areas, a commercial kitchen, and public guest spaces, the project required a highly coordinated, efficient plumbing installation aligned with the restaurant’s strict sanitary, operational, and architectural benchmarks.

  • Flawless integration of domestic hydraulics, sanitary systems, and grease waste networks with commercial appliances and the architectural floor plan.

  • Operating within a high-profile mixed-use development governed by rigorous coordination and project delivery guidelines.

  • Preserving the restaurant’s sophisticated interior aesthetics without compromising technical accessibility or system functionality.

Detail Plumbing deployed an installation strategy centered on technical field coordination, health code compliance, and the restaurant’s long-term operational efficiency. The field team meticulously reviewed routing configurations, main tie-in points, drainage slopes, fixtures, and kitchen assets to ensure every network successfully answered the space’s commercial demands.

In critical zones such as the kitchen, bar, and private dining rooms, domestic water, sanitary sewer, and grease waste runs were mapped out to completely eliminate physical interferences with HVAC ductwork, electrical trays, structural columns, and specialized food-service equipment. Furthermore, drainage pathways and pipe gradients were adjusted directly in the field to guarantee an unhindered, code-compliant, and easily serviceable fluid flow.

The installation was executed with specific attention paid to the quality of the final craftsmanship, keeping primary infrastructure hidden behind architectural finishes while embedding strategic access panels for future maintenance. This allowed the plumbing networks to integrate into the restaurant’s design without altering the visual experience of the space.

The project was successfully completed, with all plumbing systems fully installed, pressure tested, and ready for continuous restaurant operations. Detail Plumbing delivered a demanding commercial contract encompassing advanced hydraulics, sanitary lines, grease waste systems, bar plumbing assemblies, commercial kitchen infrastructure, floor drainage grids, and final fixture trim-outs.

Detail Plumbing’s performance at Del Mar Mediterranean strengthens the company’s proven track record in high-end restaurant construction, particularly within premium mixed-use developments like the NORA District, where multi-trade synchronization, pristine craftsmanship, and rigorous sanitary compliance are essential for a successful project delivery.
