    Came here for my boyfriend’s birthday with his parents. From start to finish, our experience was amazing- which is happening less and less in NYC. The staff was so kind and friendly and knowledgeable with the menu. The atmosphere was beautiful! Quiet, cozy, not overwhelming and so clean. We started with the focaccia which was delicious and a couple of other appetizers. We all enjoyed our dishes and it was the perfect portion. Their cocktails are great too! Especially the classic spritz. The staff was so attentive and made my boyfriend’s day feel extra special. Thank you, Palma! Can’t wait to return.

    I had dinner with a friend in the downstairs bar area, which is my favorite as it’s packed with character, charm and class. The food was amazing. I had the burger, which I highly recommend. The whole dish is just so well composed, not oversized, incredible flavor and stunning fries. Super classy act. Service is as always exceptional with very knowledgeable waitstaff. I love that they know every drink and dish on the menu and have tried everything themselves. I love this restaurant and it will charm any guest. Great for a romantic dinner upstairs or a friends get together downstairs. The location and neighborhood is the best the West Village has to offer.
