About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
Palma is nested on quaint Cornelia Street in the heart of Greenwich Village, with a hidden garden filled with fresh flowers in all seasons and a 200-year-old Carriage House for private dining in an elegant yet warm setting. White Stucco walls, beamed ceilings, a salvaged chestnut door & a beautiful garden with ivy-covered walls create an atmosphere where people relax and enjoy life with food and wine. Palma is an organic Italian restaurant, offering a taste of Italian clean food since April 2001. We stay true to generations of our family's cherished recipes and techniques. Our ingredients arrive fresh each day from Palma's garden and local markets. The menu highlights housemade pastas, fresh seafood and seasonal produce.

    Palma is fantastic! Outstanding food and atmosphere. Excellent service. It was like eating in a Tuscan farmhouse but right in the middle of NYC. Cannot wait to go back. Will return many times!

    Palma was a beautiful place for my wife and I to have dinner on our 15 year anniversary. The ambiance is amazing. A little louder than I expected, but that did not take away from the wonderful experience. The food was delicious. For apps we had the artichokes which and the stuffed zucchini flowers with burrata and they were crisp and creamy. We shared a a chef special stuffed tortellini with cheese and spinach and roasted on butter and it melted in our mouths. For our main my wife had the pan seared chicken and I had the lamb chops. Both dishes were very good. The chicken had an amazing crust and lemon zest that made your mouth happy. The lamb chops were very good as well, but only 2 came in my dish and I usually expect three lamb chops per serving and prefer them cooked medium well which I requested, but they were medium. Still they were delicious snd almost satisfying with carrot puree, small tender asparagus and pickled onion. I did feel the chef uses salt generously and a tad less would have been perfect. Also our waiter was very nice, but it appeared somewhat hard to get his attention. Overall we would like to dine here again.

    We love Palma and it has hosted very special moments for us including where we had our first date and where I proposed to my now wife. I sent a note for this visit asking whether or not we could get a later time (which was not possible) and could be be in the garden area. When we arrived we were taken to the same table where we had our date and proposal. I asked if they knew and they said it was just a coincidence! Now we know it is table 17. In any case, the service, food and memories were wonderful as usual. We are part time NYC residents and try to visit often, but you are so popular (and no wonder.) Thank everyone on the Saturday night crew for the wonderful hospitality and food. Best regards, Andy

    Great place to have dinner! Ambiance, food and wine are very good. There are 3 different areas inside, we were placed in a small one with 4 tables, although it was also nice the inside garden would have been nicer (reservation only mentions indoor)

    This was our second time at this restaurant and we were highly looking forward to going back but the service left a lot to be desired. One person in our party ordered the sea urchin special but was served bolognese. It was confusing because even the server who put the dish down called it sea urchin but it very clearly was not. We were offered fresh parm and said yes but after the waitress not coming back for nearly 10 minutes we just started eating. Finally, trying to order another round not only took an excessive amount of time, she didn’t ask until she asked if we wanted dessert, but then the drinks came 15 minutes after we got our dessert. Overall, the service was a big miss this time and I’m not sure we’ll go back our next trip if it’s this inconsistent.
