    We arrived and seated immediately. Received our waters and my boyfriend ordered a beer and when it arrived the fire alarm went off. Since our reservation was for 2030 we didn’t have time to wait to see how long before it would be turned off. So we left.

    We were hoping for a great birthday experience for my wife. They even asked if we were celebrating anything and then wrote it down. That was the last we heard of it. But that was far from the worst part. My wife is allergic to cilantro. We asked if there was any cilantro in what we ordered. We were told no by a server who supposedly went to the kitchen to find out. There was cilantro in the pineapple salsa on the crabcakes. The crabcakes were great except for the cilantro. My wife started getting blisters in her mouth and throat immediately. She was unable to enjoy her expensive Chilean sea bass as her taste buds were shot because of her reaction. I had the duck, which after scraping off some of the overpowering sauce, was pretty good and cooked the way I ordered it. All in all, a hoped for great celebration at a nice restaurant turned into a horrible experience where they didn't even take the offending crab cakes off the bill. The server showed zero concern for my wife's allergic reaction as well. We won't be back and have already shared our experience with many of our friends.

    I would give these straight fives all the way across except for we went in the evening on a Friday at 6:30 and they have live music and the music is so loud that when you’re talking at your table, you cannot hear the person across from you, you have to have above level talking. This would not be a romantic place if you wanted to have a quiet dinner. Other than that, the food is superb service is outstanding.

    I hosted 8 people for lunch recently at The Palms. Our table was ready when I got there. The service was outstanding the food was delicious. Everyone had a wonderful time. Even though there was another large group sitting next to us, it was still quiet enough for us to have great conversations.

    Easily one of our favorite dining experiences for a great date night. Definitely recommend for any special occasion. We had the calamari, crab cakes, rack of lamb, and sea bass. The food was all incredible! Cooked to perfection, great portions and beautiful presentation! We will definitely be back and will probably bring friends!
