Stopped in on way to Showbox show and Hart and the Hunter delivered! Had read about the Short Rib which did not disappoint. The ambiance was casual and fun and our waiter was the right mix of attentive and engaging. They made us a fan and will certainly return.

I had forgotten what an excellent dining felt like… until last night at Palace Kitchen. We were taken care of by the wait staff from the moment we checked in with the hostess to closing out our bill. The bar was open while we waited for our table and our drinks were promptly. The ambiance was soothing, with perfect light levels and cooking fragrances, the restaurant was packed full but the space felt intimate. And the food… what can I say? Absolutely delicious.

The restaurant was amazing! The staff was friendly, and they even provided complimentary drinks for my birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch. Our server was incredibly kind and attentive—she deserves a raise! Solette is beautiful all around, with a wonderful atmosphere and excellent service. I had a fantastic experience and would definitely recommend it.

We loved Conversation! Oscar our server, made sure we had an amazing experience, always attentive and pleasant- um, conversation (pun intended). Our food was beautifully plated and delicious. The highlight for me was the Market Chowder, but the Risotto was a close second. Make sure you leave room for dessert, as the Brownie and Cheesecake are worth every single calorie. Conversation is super close to the Fish Market, so it’s a great place to eat before or after sightseeing. I’d say reservations are recommended, but maybe not necessary.

    Food was great. We had Gyoza, the Rib Eye Steak Platter and Stir Fried Udon with Tenderloin Steak. All were delicious and the Rib Eye Steak Platter served on a hot dish made the bottom of rice crispy which was a HUGE plus!

    Good Food! Very slow service, but compensated for by free drinks. Very clever cocktail drinks. Nice ambience. Confusing wait staff- had 3 people in and out of our table with redundant questions. I would return to try again.
