    The service is very good from the moment we arrived. Seating in the lounge was comfortable. Our waiter named Dan introduced himself and was pleasant and upbeat. The menu is very interesting and that gave each of us excitement about what to select. We had oysters, polenta, sweet beet salad, steak, scallops, sweet squash, seafood variety on rice, and flan with rum-flavored cream and chocolate mousse favored cake with salt favored caramel ice cream. All of the food was creatively prepared and presented. We were greeted cheerfully by the hostess and thanked by everyone for having dinner there. We expected excellent food, drinks and service, and that’s what the Palace Prime experience was for us tonight. We look forward to another wonderful dinning experience there! Clayton Tanga, Santa Fe
