   Our overall dining experience was marginal. Food was just ok but the service was not good. Not many diners yet our waiter was missing in action.

   First visit to Il Palato, and it exceeded our expectations. The atmosphere was refined yet inviting. Our waiter, Russel, provided excellent service—attentive and professional. The southern Italian cuisine was well-prepared and flavorful. We’re already looking forward to our next visit.

   It was delightful! Our service was fabulous - our food was delicious - and we had a wonderful time. Will definitely recommend at work for those looking for a place as it's hard to stick to our corporate budget of $75 per person (per day). My only suggestion is that the exterior sign on the top of the door is really hard to see from the street. We drove past it twice before seeing. Thrilled to have discovered this little gem!

   This was my third time at Il Palato, and it lived up to the fantastic memories. Lively ambience for a Friday night dinner, cool decor, friendly server with helpful suggestions and great wine recommendation, and of course, outstanding food. Even my 15-year-old told me the next day he thought the place was “really cool.” I will definitely be back! Perfect for a date night, impressing a client…or your surly teen ;)

   The food was incredible and the service was very hospitable and kind. We got drinks at the bar while waiting for our table and the bartender was lovely. The only downside was that the restaurant is a little noisy, but we were also there on a busy Saturday night, so it was expected to be a little loud. We could hear our own conversation at our table. We both really enjoyed our meals!

   It was incredibly loud. We had reservations but still had to wait 25 minutes for a table. The host and waiter were a bit of a jerk. The food was lovely but because it was Valentine’s Day weekend, they made us order all courses at once. Just not a great experience.

    We have dined at Il Palato many times. Nice to return for a dinner after an early theater event. It was Feb 15, the day after Valentine’s Day. Busy and lively crowd but servers and the kitchen staff did an excellent job keeping up with everyone.
