"If you want a great meal in a unique NYC restaurant, don't miss this restaurant."

"A total home run when you are on way to theater. Excellent value with great food and service."

"The chain has truly become the McDonald of steak houses. Tasteless food, excessively expensive. It is mind boggling that anybody should pay almost $200 per person for such bad food."

"We always look forward to our dinners at The Palm, but this past Friday they disappointed us. Half of the meal was up to their usual high standard (prime rib and green beans), the other half poor...Veal Marsala with a huge dish of mushrooms and sauce...but only 2 tiny pieces of veal...probably about 2 oz. of meat; and the usually amazing creamed spinach was watery with the predominant flavor being salt. I hope this has not become the Palm standard and that the cook (I won't call him chef) had a REALLY BAD NIGHT."

"Each year for Christmas I take my family into NYC for a show, we now go in August because we got caught in a snow storm one year. I love Prime Rib, and many steakhouses don't serve it. Over the years I have tried several but the Palm is the best hands down. I went in this past Saturday to see a play and ate here and the prime rib was delicious!! I will be back again in August.."

"Great food and friendly, reliable waitstaff. Terrific location if you are heading to the theater for a Broadway show."

"I love the Palm, from the moment we walked in and were greeted by the hostess, to the time we left, the place has a wonderful feel to it, and the food is amazing. We had a 4 pound lobster for an appetizer that was cooked perfectly, followed by filet mignon that was also cooked to order. I can't say enough good things about this restaurant."
Dined on 2/23/2014
"Our service was great but the food could have been a bit more seasoned. We were a party of 6 and 2 of us had the salmon which had almost no seasoning at all. The crab cakes that 1 person had had a bit to much of a curry flavor even though we love curry. The steaks the remaining family members had were good but also could have used a bit more taste. Im not sure if this is the way the food is always served here as this was our first visit but for my family we thought the food was a bit bland."

"Usually a steller choice, I had a table that caught a draft everytime the door opened while it was snowing out. We asked that they turn up the heat, but I guess there is only so much they can turn it up. The food was great as usual. Just disappointed in my table."

"This was the second occasion that I have eaten at one of The Palm restaurants. One in Atlantic City and most recently at The Palm West Side in NYC. Both occasions were wonderful. The staff aims to please you at all times and the food is great. I definitely would recommend anyone to eat here. Kid friendly as well. I will definitely be eating at The Palm again!"

"Bad service for the second time at this restaurant will keep me from ever returning."
Dined on 2/19/2014
"I have been going to the Palm for a long time now, and I had never been disappointed with the food - until this visit. Keep in mind, I usually dine at Palm One or Two, and this was my first time at Palm West. Usually, the brussel sprouts are outstanding, this time they were sopping in oil and butter and still without appropriate flavor. We also ordered the lobster, which came tough and overcooked. The saving grace is always the great service, the mashed potatoes, and the easy-going casual atmosphere. Hopefully this was just a bad night for the kitchen staff."
Dined on 2/15/2014
"We had two different waiters approach our table, bring us water and then...nothing. It took approximately fifteen minutes for a third waiter to ask if we were ready to order our meal. We needed to point out we didn't even have drinks. However, from that point on the service was good. The steaks were fabulous. We will be going back."
Dined on 2/5/2014
"The restaurant had excellent meat dishes, well cooked, with a wait staff which was very helpful and attentive to our needs. The dining area was well decorated, elegant with the walls covered with caricature of celebrities."

"Still as good as it was 30 yrs ago when I first went to my parents' old favorite. For special occasions, it cannot be beat -- as long as everyone loves BEEF! Wonderful place - great food and old world ambiance. Pricey, yes, but worth it! NY Strip comes out sizzling and cooked exactly to your order. Sides of fried onions and potatoes and creamed spinach are dreamy. The 7-layer Choco Cake is amazing with whipped cream on the side. Sure, you'll probably have a coronary right there, but we've all got to die sometime and this is about the best way i can think of... Love it. Peter Lugar has Nothing on the Palm."

"We visited Palm - West Side on Super Bowl night. Enjoyed fantastic food in a calm, quiet setting, as most were at the game or watching elsewhere. Love their lobster & their italian offerings. Would recommend."

"Phenomenal food, great service, great wine, great locarion. I can't wait to go back again."

"Even The Lobster; Palm is a steak house and I ordered a big lobster. Nit cheap but well worth it. Service top notch as was my wife's steak. Just a very good meal at a well known restaurant. Worth repeating."
Dined on 2/13/2014
"Enjoyed the drinks and food, a bit pricey! But great for a special splurge! Make the reservation with a note. It was my husbands birthday and they brought over dessert with a candle, no need to sneak aware into the ladies room mid meal. That was nice."
Dined on 2/11/2014
"Location is great for theater goers. Start the evening with a wonderful dinner and then enjoy a show, we are partial to their lobsters and fish entrees which are lighter than their meet dishes. My son in law loved an 18 ounce steak on the other hand. We went in by train and took the subway within feet of the Palm. You can drive in a park next to the Palm. With their validation, you get 6 hours of parking for $15. A great deal."

"Had a great night plan with my wife. Romantic night out theater and dinner. Made a reservation for 6:15PM, and despite the reassurances by the disinterested hostess that our table will be ready in a few more minutes, that table never came. My wife and i left at 7:30PM and grabbed a couple of hot dogs on the way to the show. The show was great, The ambiance at the Palm was completely dreadful. That;s too bad, as we had always ebjoyed dining at the Palm, but won't be coming back here again!"

"great food, along with excellent service, make this a real ''special'' place. the steaks are the cream of the crop, and their creamed spinach, well, there's none better."

"Too noisy for intimate conversation. Good for business dinners, group celebrations and dining."

"This was a special occassion for my god daughter. I am happy to say it was my third time here. I was about ten minutes early. The hostess was very nice. She sat my daughter and myself to our table. We ordered a drink until the rest of the guests came."

"Group of 5 for a Friday night booking. Place was so noisy we had to shout at each other across the table. The steaks were fabulous although one was overcooked - ordered medium rare but came as medium. One ordered fish and was quite pleased. Very little choice for our one vegetarian - salad and french fries! The potatoes au gratin were awful, just a bowl of mush. Our waiter didn't understand when we brought this to his attention however and thought we wished to take them home with us! The service really left a lot to be desired. Altogether I wish I had gone to Sparks or Delmonico's instead:("

"Everything was good as usual--consistent, cooked to perfection and timely. It is a pleasure top eat here. Whenever we go to the city for a show on Broadway and are looking for the consummate steak and trimmings we call on the Plam on 52nd street west side."
Dined on 2/9/2014
"We loved the food and our waiter has worked at The Palm for many years so he was very professional and very nice to talk to. The filet mignon was like butter. We will definitely be going back."
Dined on 2/8/2014
"This place is really riding on it's past. We arrived and had to wait minutes for the hostess to come seat us. No one was anywhere in the greeting are - felt really unattended by management. There was a draft where we were and though we mentioned it three times to both our server and the manager, nothing was done about it. Actually wore my down coat and there were others in the area doing the same. At the prices they charge, it should be better run. Won;t go back. Won;t go to another out of the chain."
Dined on 2/8/2014
"I've been to the Palm West a number of times and I usually order the same entree, a boneless strip steak done medium rare. This time the steak was rare and had a fair amount of gristle to it. I was disappointed. If I was not with some business colleagues and on a tight timetable, I would have sent it back."

"like center room hostess and servier great food good Palm is a staple"

"I took a visiting colleague to dinner at the Palm West Side anticipating a great steak and attentive service. Having dined here regularly over the years (until about 4 years ago) I was certain the restaurant wouldn't disappoint. Unfortunately it did. Our waiter was timid and in a daze so we waited too long for a cocktail, if we were told about specials I don't remember them, and once our meal arrived, we weren't checked on until it was time for the bill. No coffee or dessert needed when we had been this disappointed. Our steaks were cooked on a too hot grill, so they were overly charred making it tough to enjoy the center of the meat which was (as ordered) medium. I won't be back. Don't waste your money."

"The Steaks are cooked to perfection. Sides of Asparagus,Creamed Spinach,and Parmesan frites were all amazing!!! Great Gem in the Theatre District. Also Excellent lunch deals. Lobsters come in monstrous portions of 3- 5LBs OMG!!!! No drawn butter needed. Bon Appetite. :)"

"been coming to the Palm since I was 5 years old with my dad. Bruno was a good friend to my father...i have kept coming back over the years and now i bring my daughter. THANK YOU Palm"

"The food was great, as always. Our waitress was very good at all. We couldn't understand her and she kept interrupting us to ask if we wanted more drinks. She forgot to bring a number of side orders to the table. We had to remind her 2-3 times. It was the day of the snowstorm, so the restaurant was fairly empty. I assume the regular staff didn't make it in."

"Since we arrived early our table wasn't that great. We was sat in the bar"

"Location is convenient to a number of the theaters in the Broadway area. Great to catch dinner or drinks before or after a show and even better when your table is waiting with an OpenTable reservation!"

"What a wonderful experience. Our server was fantastic as were all the staff! Food was amazing, so looking forward to the next time!"
Dined on 2/1/2014
"The food was perfectly cooked and the filet mignon literally melts in your mouth. If you're looking for a steak this is the best NYC has to offer. It is now my new favorite restaraunt before heading to the theater. The waiter was pleasant however the hostess was a total snob. She could use an attitude adjustment. If it weren't for her rudeness they would have a perfect service rating to go with their perfect food rating. Will defenetly go back!!! :)"
