   The food and place is always amazing. But the food at that night took almost one hour to get ready. It never happened before

   We had a wonderful experience with Roberto- he listened to what we were looking for and found us a beautiful bottle of Italian red in our tasting range- the food was exceptional, he curated a menu for us that included 4 courses. Was definitely a five star experience and we will be back!

   Love this restaurant. The food is amazing and the staff is friendly and efficient. Once you have been in a few times they remember you and call you by name. Great bar and wine list.

   Restaurant people interrupting dinner. One waiter (not our waiter) came to our table to make small conversation when we were trying to enjoy a quiet dinner. He “seemed” drunk. He will just kidnapped our dinner. I will not go back there to have dinner just pick up

   We have been to this place many times before. It looks like somethings have changed, maybe the Chef. The dishes are different, not a big problem, we enjoy different kinds of things. Unfortunately, the 4 of us were not impressed with the flavors, they needed more intensity.

   Palinuro is by far our favorite Italian restaurant in the Katy area. The service is fantastic, we always love to get Roberto to wait on us. He selects our wines and helps to select our meals and they’re always great. I got my favorite dish, which is the spaghetti frutti di mare, which is a wonderful spaghetti with a great variety of seafood. My wife got the chicken marsala. Wonderful dinners! We will definitely go back to Palinuros often as possible!

    We're so glad we discovered this excellent restaurant on far west side of Houston. They served the best Caesar salad we've ever had. The Penne al pesto and osso buco were also excellent. Service was impeccable. Palinuro is a lovely neighborhood gem.
