ONLINE ORDERING AVAILABLE - ilpalioct.comIl Palio was named after the race held each summer in Siena, Italy. Created with a passion, the restaurant has been exquisitely designed and beautifully finished with materials from all over the world. No stone was left unturned and time was not a factor in finding exactly what was required to make the "vision" a reality. The atmosphere created is one of quiet comfort in surroundings reminiscent of an Italian villa. The friendly and courteous staff, the outstanding food, and the efficient service all contribute to the ambiance felt by those who visit the restaurant. Il Palio's fine Tuscan cuisine is a pleasing combination of the highest-quality ingredients and the caring preparation by chefs who take pride in the dishes they present. Like the race in Siena, Il Palio is creating lasting impressions.

    What a find!! This place was a perfect location to have a friends celebration. Menu is very versatile making a selection hard! We enjoyed every bite and agree that we will return to try more of the perfectly prepared dishes. When we walked in it was pretty chilly outside but we were lucky to get seated by the fireplace and totally enjoyed that as well. No disappointment here at all. Recommend a reservation. We had one, fortunately.

    We have been going to Il Palio for many years. Throughout that time there have been a few different owners/chefs. It has always been good, however since Marguerite took over, it has been extraordinary. We have ordered seafood, pasta, chicken, etc. Everything is always well done!

    Food was great as usual. Drinks were great but we got our appetizer before our drinks. Also we somehow had three waitresses asking us for our order. They seemed to be confused or new, we’re not sure. Usually the service is spot on. It may have been because of the holiday crowd.
