    Me and My Girlfriend were just here tonight. We wanted to try a new place out so we chose Palmer’s. Honestly, it was one of the best full meals I have had at a restaurant. The Baked Clams, Caesar Salad, and Creamed Spinach were unreal. For our entrees, the rack of lamb was the best lamb I have ever eaten; she loved her chicken parm as well. If you love classic italian food done perfectly, Palmers is the place to go 1000%! The service was amazing from our Server and one of the owners even came to the table to see how everything was. The night ended with an unreal Tiramisu that really put the bow on it. 10/10 experience and we will absolutely be back here very soon!

    From the moment we sat down Ken our waiter was full of life and energy. He didn't skip a beat. He was attentive and answered all our questions. EVERYTHING about him was awesome. My food was cold and I did mention it politely and he offered for my dish to be done over but i politely refused. I just wanted to let him know that i understood that the kitchen was probably swamped with orders, (hey stuff happens and I understand)....anyway he was very apologetic and the afternoon continued with a great dance party. I will say one thing, the volume of the music could def be turned down a decibel or two. Yes, we are there to dance, but when you have to scream at your friends during lunch just so they can hear you is a bit annoying. My throat hurt at the end of the afternoon. I am planning to come back and I hope the music is a bit better for the ears.

    We went to 317 Main for Valentine’s Day. So glad we did. There was a special menu for the night but my husband was craving the Paella and mentioned it to our server. (We’ve been to 317 Main before) Well, she told the chef about my husbands comment and Chef Eric made it for him special off the menu. And that’s why we go there. The service, the quality of the food and drinks are absolutely the best.
