Authentic Tuscan Dishes Born in September of 1991, Palio is a country-style, Italian restaurant featuring authentic Tuscan dishes.

During summer, Palio boasts Ann Arbor’s largest and most popular outdoor gathering spot on its rooftop patio – Palio Del Sole. Offering the best view of Ann Arbor’s energetic downtown nightlife, the rooftop is fully equipped with its own cucina and offers a unique dining experience. There simply is no better place to relax with friends on a warm summer evening in Ann Arbor.

We had reservations for 8:15pm and they promptly took us, giving the option to sit outside (would have to wait) or inside where the ambiance was perfect and AC on! The service was phenomenal and food even better, one of the best chicken Parmesan dishes I’ve had in years. The sauce was amazing! My girlfriend had the salmon which she thoroughly enjoyed. As always the vino was top notch. A great date facilitated by Palio, we will be back!

The outdoor dining was wonderful! The whole street was shut down to accommodate restaurants to be able to have plenty of outdoor seating. It was Just lovely and what a wonderful way to support the local economy. The only thing I would suggest is a couple more options for people who are trying to eat a little healthier. I realize you don't necessarily go Italian to eat healthy, but sometime the group as a whole chooses. But, the salmon was fantastic!

The bruschetta appetizers were really wonderful. My entree was good, as were the four other entrees ordered at the table. The best part of all was the service. Our waiter Brian was phenomenal!! He was attentive, fun and knowledgeable.
