We hosted a birthday, that halfway through service turned into a double birthday. Both birthday men got a personalized card n cake. Between the 2 lovely hostsess who greeted us and our server Eric the evening was an absolute delightful success. They made us feel welcomed, and Eric was so attentive and amazing as he served 17 people. We will definitely be coming back soon Oh, and the food was amazing. Definitely take advantage of the trio dip they usually serve about four people, but they are amazing, mouthwatering, and will have you coming back for more .

Was recommended by a DC resident brunch queen and Palette did not disappoint! Had the amazing bottomless brunch. Our group had a fantastic time and we look forward to returning to get to the dishes we could not today. Loved the art represented and the working artist onsite.

Wonderful brunch! The bottomless brunch is an incredible value. You can try everything on the menu. I do not suggest that though it’s too much food. Everything we tried was served hot fresh and delicious. The whole vibe was so cool. We will be back!
