Are downstairs in the bar. Food was excellent, service was good but a little slow as the bartender had many responsibilities. Very loud! Enjoyed our time.

We think not only is Palma absolutely darling but the food is fantastic. We loved our Chianti Classico too. We wanted to get in a little earlier than our reservation and they very happily accommodated. The wait staff was very friendly and there was no snotty pretense at all. Would highly recommend

Overall, we love this place. However, the service was a bit slow last night. We arrived around 7:37 PM, and after a long wait to place our order, the food didn’t arrive until about 8:34 PM, which left an impression about the service. That said, the food and ambiance are consistently excellent. We will definitely be back!

The Maddy Rose team made this such a memorable birthday celebration for my mom - thank you! (This is our second year in a row celebrating with you and we are so grateful - she adores your restaurant.) Compliments to the chef - everything was delicious. As well, special thank yous to the woman who greeted us when we first came in the door and the hostess who then assisted us. They were fabulous. Finally, thanks so much to our server, Aaron, for making this such an extra special birthday brunch! This has been a wonderful new tradition for our family…
