The Palm - San Antonio

My family and I love the Palm and go there for special occasions. We went last night (Christmas) and the service was great. But my wife’s lobster was not cooked all the way. She had to send back a large portion to have it finished cooked. We are usually not the ones to make a stir, but today she is not well. Even though they recooked the large claw, I think the damage was done when they de shelled it table side and mixed the uncooked with the cooked parts. This has never happed before.

Sublime. The dry aged filet a la Oscar was cooked à point and was remarkably flavorful & tender. The oysters were superb. The seafood linguine with jumbo butterflied shrimp & garlic cheese toast was rich in depth of flavors. Both cocktails and mocktails were divine. Excellent service, discreetly checked on our food to see if we needed anything, never felt rushed.

Went in for lunch when it wasn't crowded...at all. We were the only diners initially. The crowd began to pick up as we were leaving. I had a bunless burger with side salad. It was so satisfying and delicious😋. The meat was quality. It filled me up without the feelings of heaviness. The salad was fresh and plentiful. I will say the vinegarett was slightly bland, so I opted for the Ceasar instead. The service was impeccable and the atmosphere was clean and calming. Definitely glad we went here and I would definitely go back.

Excellent meal! No way could I afford to eat here often. But, the steak was very good. The service was excellent, very friendly, and knowledgeable. The atmosphere was nice. Upscale without being over the top. It feels strange to say upscale with all the hand drawn pictures of celebrities, but the table settings and general feel was very nice.

Love this place for lunch. Superb salads and lots of choices. High quality, perfect preparation and superb service. Sat at the bar and ordered a steak salad. It was first rate and the Bartender went out of her way to be kind and professional. Extremely friendly. She made me the perfect iced tea with simple syrup and 🍋 lemon. I will definitely be back. Always a sure thing. 5 stars.

This is an upscale restaurant that older San Antonians use to come to for special celebrations. The food is good but for the price there are better restaurants around town especially because we also paid for parking. The walls are covered with pictures of people I didn’t know except a few. We ordered the Sea Bass Oscar and the Salmon. The waiter was good. For dessert we had a Carajillo. We would return to try different menu items but not soon.
