The Palm - Boston

"We had an excellent meal at The Palms on a very busy Christmas Eve. We never felt rushed and were so relaxed. Everyone was so pleasant."

"Good steak and cooked great. Great seafood tower with fresh lobster. The potatoes were okay but a little too soupy. The greenbeans were nice and crispy. The dessert wasn't great. Donut with a side of sauce and a cannoli but wasn't fresh. Overall, skip the dessert and it is a great meal!"

"In short, great steaks, but you can go elsewhere for the seafood. The meal was fairly slow, but I blame that in part to a large holiday party The Palm was hosting that evening. It was just difficult at times flagging a waiter or getting water. To go through the courses: bread was fine. I liked the breadsticks the most. I started with the wedge salad, which had a great amount of toppings, but I wasn’t the biggest fan of the dressing. Next time I might ask for it on the side. I ordered the surf & turf and my dad got the ribeye. Ribeye was excellent. My petit filet was also enjoyable. Having not ordered it with any sauces, the flaky sea salt on top was perfect, bringing out the best in the steak’s tenderness and warmth. However, the lobster was lackluster. It had very little taste, even when dipped… and then smothered, in butter. I ate it with the mashed potatoes, and it was significantly improved. Lastly, the chocolate cake was great to share. All in all, I really appreciated the portion sizes. I wasn’t overly hungry, but I didn’t feel that I was given an insane amount of food."

"So let me start by saying that I love the Palm and have had tons of great experiences visiting the New York Midtown location many times. Being in Boston this week I figured I would try this location during lunch time. The restaurant is beautiful inside and it was packed, the negative was it took about an hour to get my food then when it came the steak was so heavily seasoned that I couldn't eat it and sent the whole dish back. (I rarely ever do this) As I mentioned, I've had so many great experiences at the Palm in NYC both uptown and downtown that I'll chalk today's negative experience up to bad luck."

"Fantastic customer service at the bar by Sebastian. The truffle fries were good. The pork chop was moist and breaded. I will get a naked pork chop next time. The drinks looked fantastic. I had the white wines. I also signed up for their membership too, $25. I will return here."
