This is truly a special experience, we're so lucky to have Black Cat Farm in our community. Everything was delicious, the service was amazing. The attention to detail is just impressive. The private cabanas are so well thought out. Their enthusiasm about food is contagious, I love learning about the process and components, makes it all the more delicious. Our anniversary felt all the more special, would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful family dinner at the Palace Arms. Our server was very nice, knowledgeable and attentive. Ambience and food were amazing. I loved my Chilean sea bass. We didn’t celebrate anything but this is an excellent place to spend a special occasion.
