    We waited more than half an hour to be seated. It took just as long to get our food. My dads chicken was too salty. When we booked they asked if it was a special occasion and when we stated we had a birthday, they told us “we don’t do that”. It was not worth the 350 dollars we paid.

    The food for most of us was good and portions big. One of us had waffles but there was so little syrup that the waffle was completely dry underneath. We were brought a small container of Smuckers syrup which did not help much. The coffee's for everyone was lukewarm and had to be heated up in the microwave. Two water glasses were dirty and had to be replaced. The waiter was nice and explained the menu well. He did forget the drink I ordered but was not charged for it. The restaurant needs a re-vamp. Decor and building is older. I will say the staff went above and beyond in helping us with a car problem we had in the parking lot. Steller of them. We were so appreciative. I would recommend the restaurant as the food is good and staff try hard to please.

    LOVED IT!! I will definitely come again. However their inka cola cans were expired ( the drink still tasted good so we didn’t bring it up to be rude, but just fyi so you don’t give expired drinks). I loves the prime NY (10/10 recommend!!)

    Had not been here in a number of years. Was reminded of what a lovely gem it is! Will return soon. Lunch prices are still decent, given the current market. Less comfortable with the dinner prices as those seem a little higher even in the current market. However, not so extravagant that it would preclude me from marking a special occasion here during the dinner service. As always, the food was delicious and the service impeccable. Very comfortable place for a leisurely lunch and wonderful atmosphere for just chatting. Was thrilled when they added some more vegetarian friendly options. Thank you!

    My fiancé and I made a reservation for our anniversary, we decided to try out coco Palm because we saw there was a vegan entree option (beyond meat picadillo) which we were super excited about! As plant based people, it’s pretty hard to find a fancy restaurant like this that we can actually eat at, so thank you coco palm!! The atmosphere was perfect, definitely a great spot for romance. The view was great, the service was 5 star, and the food was INCREDIBLE! We had a perfect anniversary dinner, and we will most definitely be back!!

    I took my mother to celebrate her birthday and we have a lovely lunch. The restaurant is beautiful and the food was delicious. We were a bit disappointed though that the advertised Saturday brunch listed on the Coco Palm restaurant website is not in fact true, as we were informed once arriving that brunch is Sunday only.

    Food was great. They sat us pretty quick. It took about 20 minutes just for the table to get water. It looks like they were under staffed. We were 6 and another table was a pretty big table. Only had one server for both tables. The poor guy was running around as best as he could do. The restaurant looks a little aged. I would go back and give them a second chance.
