"Great Bloody Mary's and our food was great last Sunday."
Dined on 3/30/2014
"I always look to The Palace when I have a business lunch with out of towners. I know the food will be consistently good and there's enough variety that everyone can be satisfied. Their soups are always yummy and pair well with their heartier salads (available in half portions)."

"Nice little restaurant and bar to celebrate a birthday. Luke, the bartender makes a great original Sidecar with a sugar rim. A little too much orange juice added for my liking but overall a good drink. Never tasted 10 cane Rum, which Luke selected in lieu of the standard Bacardi label. Dinner was great, from the salad (1/2 Caesar-partially grilled) to the fresh Halibut-tasty. Beautiful presentation. Wait staff cordial, friendly and attentive. This was our second time here, will come again. If you get a chance to seat by a window facing Peoria do so. Watching the traffic go by close reminded us of eating in NYC."

"Palace Cafe has the best food in Tulsa, hands down. The bentos are a must have, try one of each! Always a great experience here. Great for a special date night."

"We went for brunch and were pleased with the menu options. We ordered the french toast, the green eggs and ham and the tenderloin hash. Each dish was cooked to perfection. The hollandaise sauce is superb. And the speciality drink list had fun options we had not seen on any other local menus. Needless to say, we cleaned our plates! Our waiter kept the coffee flowing and expertly took care of our needs without bothering us or interrupting our conversation. We will definitely be back!"

"This was my first time at Palace Café, and I thought the food and service were both very good. The prices were a little rich for my blood, but overall, the dining experience was great."
Dined on 3/5/2014
"With a seasonally changing menu & excellent Chef's specials, there's always something wonderful on the menu @ The Palace. One thing I didn't know before Saturday night, it has never before been offered, was that there is a vegetarian menu. Thanks, we had a vegetarian in our group."

"great food, easy place to have a lunch date with friends."

"My husband and I used to live near the Palace Cafe and would eat there often. We had an event from 6-8 nearby and made a reservation online at 8:15. The inside has been updated and expanded with a cool bar area. We were very impressed with the new decor and the food was excellent. I had the delicious Caesar salad and Chris enjoyed the chicken and white bean chile. We split the special entree. It was quite delicious; Mahi Mahi with lobster cream sauce and truffle raviolis! Our server was fabulous and attentive. It was very busy that Friday night so there was a fun buzz throughout."

"from the appetizers, through to desert, everything we ordered was excellent. martinis with blue cheese stuffed olives were also to perfection. I have been there a long time ago and didn't like it, we decided to try again and I am v era pleased, will return in the near future."
Dined on 2/22/2014
"the food was superb, the service outstanding and the prices fair for this type of restaurant. the wine list was extremely overpriced but had a number of excellent wines. the industrial décor is not one associated with a romantic dinner for two and the noise level in the restaurant was higher than we would have liked. if I was recommending a great upscale place in mid-town this would be on the list."
Dined on 2/22/2014
"Food is outstanding. Busy and can get noisy. The hostess is not good at her job and should be replaced with someone competent. It takes outstanding food to make up for a bad experience at the front of the restaurant. Palace Café delivers on the food."
Dined on 2/15/2014
"First, let me start off by saying that this is a great hit for a special night out, date night, or any night really. But we went for Valentine's Day and the tasting menu was to die for, although I wish I would have gotten a thicker steak and more Maine lobster, but what I had was delish. Thanks for a wonderful V Day!"
Dined on 2/14/2014
"The food was excellent and the service was great. It's been a long time since I've tasted steak that was that good! I chose this restaurant based on the reviews that I found on Google and it was spot on! The only thing that I think could have been improved was that I asked for my steak to be cooked medium well, and when it arrived it was medium rare. Were it not for the fact that it tasted so good I may have been tempted to send it back to have it cooked a little more but my wife and I still very much enjoyed the experience!"
Dined on 2/14/2014
"Had a wonderful dinner, the scallop pasta was very tasty. Service was attentive and not annoying. All 4 of us had a wonderful time."
Dined on 2/8/2014
"Fair to good food...WAY over priced! Probably won't go back."
Dined on 2/13/2014
"I ordered the butternut squash soup and chicken roulade. The soup was clean tasting but the fried sage and bacon brought texture and flavor. The roulade was tender, moist, and flavorful. Our service was spotty when it came to drinks and refreshments. My friends ordered the $18 taster appetizers. They enjoyed about 70% of them. I think it was a good concept but I worried about their food getting cold. The roasted beets and beet salad were wonderful. The table was comfortable for 6, but the front window was too cold. Several women kept their coats on. Any other time of year would have been perfect. I thought it was a lovely 40th birthday celebration with friends."

"Great food, great service, great atmosphere! Did I mention the kale salad!!! It is so delicious!!!!"
Dined on 2/5/2014
"We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. We each ordered something different and were all sharing our entrees thinking ours was the best! Brussels sprouts coleslaw, kale, beet greens, and artichoke hearts. I usually do not eat any of the greens but I tried them and to my surprise, liked them! Caesar salad was unusual as it was grilled with a smoky flavor that was very tasty! The lobster ravioli was very good and the salmon was enjoyed by our guests. My husband had the scallop linguini and thought it was fantastic. I had the cod fish which was rolled and cooked to perfection! The dessert we ordered! There were four small apple stuffed beignets, a perfect finish to a wonderful evening. Our waiter was excellent!"

"Wonderful service, attentive but not intrusive. Great food, all prepared with care and attention. Would be five stars all the way with a bit more thoughtfulness to wine list. We did have a great split of an 06 Shiraz, but would like a few more options for interesting reds. Also, would like a vegetarian option as an entree. Overall, a highlight for our area."

"We chose Palace Cafe for our 30th wedding anniversary dinner and were not disappointed. The food was excellent and the service impeccable. It was very quiet and the booths are extremely comfortable. They even have one of our favorite wines."
Dined on 1/16/2014
"When in Tulsa we always make at least one stop at the Palace. Have great respect for the chef - food in always fresh, great combinations, and beautiful presentation."

"Enjoyed a romantic birthday dinner with great service, food, and wine. One of my favorite places to go! Always consistently wonderful!"
Dined on 1/8/2014
"Excellent food! We ordered a sampler of all the Bentos (appetizers) - highly recommend! My wife ordered the tenderloin and I ordered the lobster ravioli . Would get both again in a heartbeat. If you get a booth it's a great romantic restaurant - get a table that's squished next to others, not so much Highly recommend"

"Love this place! Excellent food, wine, and service. Not for kids, thank goodness. Everything on menu looks delicious so we will have to return to try it all."

"We were looking for a new place for Sunday Brunch and we certainly found it! The service was fantastic, the breakfast was over the top and the Bloody Mary hit the spot. Great place, great food, great atmosphere."

"My aunt was in town from Seattle, and it was her birthday. She's a foodie, and wanted to go some place nice. The Palace Cafe was perfect!"
Dined on 12/28/2013
"I went with a friend. The service was good, not too pushy, but a little lackadaisical. The chef's catch of the day was phenomenal. However, I wish their wine list was a little more robust."
Dined on 12/27/2013
"Our experience was very good. The food and the service was exceptional and most of all it was unique and the menu selection was quite refreshing. Will definitely plan to return very soon."

"We had a girls night here this weekend and everything was wonderful!"
Dined on 12/19/2013
"This restaurant is one of my favorites. Our group of eight was looking for a great dinner and Palace Cafe accommodated us beautifully. As always the food was the star of the day. The Bentos are especially flavorful, fun and different. The restaurant has an excellent selection for vegetarians, but also serves substantial and tasty pork, beef, seafood and poultry creations. They specialize in locally sourced and locally grown ingredients, which is nice. Our server, Zach, was exceptional."
Dined on 12/12/2013
"We had an enjoyable dining experience at Palace Cafe. The server was attentive but gave us time to visit. We were not rushed but yet the spacing of time between courses was perfect. The food is delicious and options are creative and interesting without being too obscure. I enjoy the tall booths which are intimate for private conversation."

"My wife and I enjoyed our 9th anniversary dinner here this past Friday evening. It was our first dining experience at the Palace Cafe and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The service was great and the food was excellent. I will definitely recommend to others."

"My husband and I had been here once before and loved it then but just forgot about how great it was. The food was excellent, drinks were unique and amazing and service was top notch! I've already told many and will def be back!"

"I made a special reservation and had to change it the day of and they were very accomodating. The food was excellent and I will definitely be returning!"

"We love Palace and this night was no exception. While this is normally our date night spot on this night we took our 10-year old daughter out for a special birthday dinner. While I wouldn't call Palace "kid friendly" - you rarely see kids there - it is not unfriendly to anyone and she loved getting treated to a "real" restaurant. We always do the full bento appetizer (terrific - I especially liked the Tuna bite and the spare-rib bite). My wife and I both had the steak and it was beautifully prepared. Also love the smoked Caesar (my wife enjoyed the Kale salad - I had a bite and it was quite good). One of Tulsa's best spots."
Dined on 10/24/2013
"The food was as always excellent, and our waitress's was phenomenal! Unfortunately a couple next to us had brought their little boy with him. He spent a good five minutes screaming "no" at them and we was certainly of the age where he should know better. Not the restaurants fault mind you but certainly rough on the ears"
