    Our dinners were delicious! Arnold’s delicious meat loaf and BBQ ribs. The Mac & Cheese and shrimp cocktail were also delicious. Our server was right there whenever we needed anything. We ate in the patio. The weather was perfect. We topped dinner off with a banana split. It was the best we’ve ever had. Three flavors of what tasted like homemade ice cream. We love Arnold Palmer’s!

    Friends of our who are local to the area suggested we try Arnold Palmers on our vacation. We reserved patio seating, which included live music from a fantastic guitarist who has been a staple for 10 years. The setting was incredible and probably the most lovely setting we have ever experienced. The selection of food was just perfect, as well. I definitely will go back, maybe again tonight!

    Wonderful meal for our party of 5. Our server, Marco, was excellent - attentive, informative, fun personality. We sat on the patio and a couple of people in our group was in the sun. Marco made sure to position an umbrella so no one had sun in their eyes. He continually repositioned the umbrella as the sun was setting. Food - meatloaf, ribs, salads - was yummy. I love the warm rolls and room temp butter. We will be back!
