A nice experience in downtown Houston We were seated immediately and were attended to by the server equally fast the. The food absolutely marvellous. Highly recommend this place for great food and overall experience.
Phenomenal experience. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left it was perfection. Great menu, great service (thank you, Joseph!!), food to die for, all in an upscale modern ambiance. Will definitely be coming back. p.s. - may just be the best Lobster Bisque in town!!
The best thing about the restaurant was music, ambiance, service and people. Food was just ok but cheese cake was probably the best in the whole world. Appetizers were not much but very nice. The singer at the restaurant was amazing, Initially I thought it was some DAT but later found out that it was live. Kudos to service and music
Houston Restaurant Weeks 2023
3-course lunch menu
• The Palm Caesar 🥗
• Steak Allá Stone - sandwich
• The Palm Zeppoles
& of course I had leftovers because I couldn’t finish the ”sandwich” 😂
Was here for a special event. Food was fine, the sauce on the steak was kinda watery, and portion sizes for the same dish were not consistent, a bit disappointed.
Found another great spot to have a romantic dinner. The live piano player added another level. I had a delicious crab cake. Later enjoyed some great lamb chops and sides. Pictures don't do any justice for how good they were.
Excellent food and service. We selected this restaurant as a last minute try and was pleasantly surprised to have such a wonderful high end dining experience. Our seating was literally around the piano…I mean LITERALLY,, as the table was seamed against it! This aspect alone started this night in the right direction and made conversations and laughs effortlessly. It was a lighthearted and whimsical evening and the waitress was super attentive. We requested a couple of songs to the pianist which made the night more personable and special. Every appetizer ordered was amazing, especially the crabmeat cocktail and the lobster entree was the showstopper! I was torn on finishing or saving it for later. It was cooked to perfection which made me hesitate on consuming it all away! My husband’s steak was equally as fantatuc. I’m really unsure what took us so long to try this dining staple but we will be faithful patrons going forward.
Excellent food. Loved the piano player. The lamb was super. Extremely tender and so flavorful. It reminded me of the young lamb we ate in Greece. I plan to bring my wife with me next time.
Food was great! $29 for 3 course lunch meal is great pricing. Lobster bisque and chicken parm were amazing as was the Palm dessert.
*Unfortunately, the service was pretty slow (but friendly) and is typically that way here. Strange that it was so slow since it was not busy / not many diners on Friday at lunchtime. Atmosphere was modern and clean. Overall a good experience though!

The Palm in Downtown Houston is a culinary oasis that has stolen my heart and delighted my taste buds. My recent dining experience at this exceptional restaurant was nothing short of extraordinary, and it unquestionably earns a well-deserved 5-star rating.
From the moment I entered The Palm, I was enveloped in an atmosphere of timeless elegance and sophistication. The attentive and professional staff exuded hospitality, ensuring that every aspect of my dining journey was met with impeccable service.
The star of the show, without a doubt, was the exquisite food. The Palm's culinary prowess is a delightful fusion of classic American steakhouse fare with a contemporary twist. Each dish is a symphony of flavors, expertly crafted by the talented chefs. The top-quality ingredients and meticulous preparation made each bite an experience to remember.
The impressive selection of prime steaks, perfectly cooked to my preference, was a carnivore's dream come true. The accompaniments, such as the indulgent lobster mac and cheese, were equally divine and complemented the main courses perfectly.
The Palm's attention to detail extends to its extensive wine list, offering a curated selection that pairs seamlessly with the menu offerings. The sommeliers' expertise in recommending the perfect wine to enhance my dining experience was commendable.
The restaurant's luxurious ambiance, complete with dim lighting, plush seating, and tasteful decor, created an intimate setting for an unforgettable meal. Whether it's a romantic dinner or a gathering with friends and family, The Palm provides a charming backdrop for any occasion.
In conclusion, The Palm - Downtown Houston, is a culinary haven that excels in delivering an extraordinary dining experience. With its impeccable service, exquisite food, and elegant atmosphere, it stands as a shining star among Houston's dining establishments. I wholeheartedly give it a resounding 5-star rating and eagerly anticipate my next palate-pleasing extravaganza at this exceptional restaurant.
Wonderful food and Excellent service!
This is definitely a five star restaurant, but the service did not start out that way. The hostess was very pleasant and the 15-minute wait she predicted was accurate. We were seated in a booth and our server did inform us that the lunch hour was a busy one. We waited for about 10 or 15 minutes before getting some bread and another 10 or 15 minutes more before getting menus. We used this time to enjoy the decor of the restaurant. This was our first time here. During Houston restaurant weeks, we like to try out new restaurants. Finally, my wife could not stand the waiting any longer. She informed the hostess about are longer than expected weight and age she promptly came to the rescue. She took our orders, provided us with complimentary beverages, and had our appetizers on our table all in less than 5 minutes. The food tasted amazing, my steak was cooked to perfection. My wife's steak needed a bit more time and they happily accommodated by grilling it longer until it was perfect for her. The dessert was also delicious!
The ambience reminded me a bit of The Walnut Room in Chicago. We enjoyed the Power Lunch selections so much, I didn't get a picture of our main course. The staff is excellent. Matt, our waiter, took great care of us. Eric, the GM was also kind and engaging. We cannot wait to return! Side note: the sidecar cocktail was perfection, even the restaurant playlist was solid.
We love the new look downtown. The people working here are wonderful. From the moment you walk in until you leave, they make you feel right at home. The veal parmesan was amazing and the veal chop was very tender.
The service and the food were both fantastic !! You have to try the apple wood smoked bacon appetizer, it's thick and juicy and full of smoke flavor. Oh, and one other thing, I rated this place a 5 because the food was awesome but the service was better than anywhere I have been, I ordered a lobster and they have someone who breaks and separates the claw meat for you table side. Wow ! I am definitely coming back here soon.
Excellent! Everything from reception, the service, dinner and the singer. The Palm is worth every bit of the experience.
