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.

Rustic Southern Italian kitchen with strong influence from Tuscany. All professional staff with over 30 years experience."It is most certainly a gourmet establishment with a menu from top to bottom that is exquisitely creative with tastes and flavors and choices that make selections so joyously difficult--and with a wine list to match food and pocketbook. Consider this the now best Italian restaurant in the state. Three cheers for Biagio the chef.""Concealed jewel, but easily accessible off the parkway. Esteemed staff that goes about taking care of your every need, especially the maitre d'. Exceptional menu with meals that make you crave for more. The homemade pasta dishes are unequaled to any place in the state. This is an elite restaurant that I will entertain my family and my business clients at. Head chef will go above and beyond his means for satisfaction of customer."

    Great service. Leila introduced herself and did a great job with taking our order and the staff served us well. Area was quiet and we were not rushed at all. Had the filet panini which was on pizza dough. Different but good and done well Only observation is that for a handicapped person who was with me had difficulty getting up front sidewalk area. Needs a slope in front to drop off those people

    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!

    Chaplin was great! My wife and I shared 5 small plates: Roasted Beets, Shrimp Cocktail, Charred Octopus, Poached Lobster Risotto, and Lamb Lollipops. Everything was delicious. We also had a couple of Manhattans, and finished off with an Espresso Martini and Crème Brûlée for dessert. We decided to eat at the beautiful bar, and the bartender’s were lovely. Overall a great experience!
