    When you walked in it was very upbeat with a piano player/singer. The service was quick. The courses were timed perfectly and not on top of each other. The food was wonderful and the presentation was outstanding. Everything was wonderful but don’t miss the baklava dessert, it is some of the most delicious baklava I have had! We will return again and again!

    Very nice. Fresno lacks ambience in restaurants. The Palm is sophistication. Lunches serve a few items of Armenian food that worth ordering. The lunch menu has burgers, sandwiches, steak, fish, very good selection of salads too. Usually we order their delicious kebab but this time we did something different. We sat in the bar in a nice booth and ordered martinis and small bites/appetizers. Chicken Spring Roll, Shrimp Cocktail, Oysters Rockefeller, and Palm Tower. It was the perfect way to enjoy a girlfriend catch up lunch. You can’t go wrong there. 👍😃

    My wife and I were in town to visit family and I brought my wife here as her birthday was in 2 days. Everything was far beyond what we might have expected! They had a piano player who sang and played during our dinner and the food was spectacular! The Crab cakes were amazing, as was everything else. Our server Cassandra, took excellent care of us and brought us a slice of baklava to share with our coffee after dinner. If you are looking for and awesome intimate dining experience, I whole heartedly recommend The Palms!

My mimosa came with a miniature rose clipped to the rim of the glass which was a lovely surprise! Service was excellent and the food was delicious. Portions were very generous. Will most certainly be back. Thank you for a wonderful Mother’s Day lunch!

    First of all, we waited at the bar for 10 minutes without anyone acknowledging us. This was after we asked the hostess if we could get a drink first since we were early. The hostess walked by and I asked if there was a bartender. Apparently there is not a bartender but the servers get the drinks for their own customers. She got our server and we were served drinks. When we were seated at our table, I asked about the menu items. We were told that they were out of a lot of menu items and she would check with the kitchen and let us know what they had available. She didn’t return, so we called the Lime Lite. We left and had the BEST meal and service.

    Elegant restaurant. Live piano music. Great service. The duck breast was very good. The filet was disappointing. It did not look, cut, or taste like filet mignon. Some other cut of meat. Other diners' meals looked appetizing. Lots of choices on the menu. Would return, notwithstanding one disappointment.

    Our first time here. Restaurant was lovely inside. Waitress and wait staff were friendly and professional although we were seated for quite some time before anyone made contact with us. Cesar salad was very good as were the truffle mashed potatoes. Unfortunately, my filet mignon (which was ordered medium rare) was tough and dry. My husband's pork chop was also tough and overcooked. We don't drink and did not have dessert. So can't speak to that but our bill with tip was over $140. Dinner was a huge disappointment to say the least.
