Allison LiJuly 14, 2014The Miami burger was a lovely surprise! Based on the menu's description I was expecting a Cuban sandwich. But burger patty + ham = perfection. Pair that with a spiked shake and you're good to go!Upvote2Downvote
SarinaJanuary 30, 2017I get the palace classic burger every time. I ask for it to be cooked medium and it's perfectly tasty and juicy every time. The sauce that comes with the fries is AMAZING. 😋UpvoteDownvote
Hessa Al ZamelJune 15, 2015Their palace classic is really delicious whether it was the chicken or the beef .. The french fries is really crispy and great 👍👍

Guess I was there on an off night. My burger was well done. They no longer have the spiked milkshakes on the menu and they ran out of wine!!UpvoteDownvote

Stefanie SpatolaJune 16, 2012Napa Valley was good... loads of goat cheese. Pass on the onion rings - they were just ok. Get sweet potato or reg fries instead. Chef is conservative on the temp... med rare is wasn't rare enough.Upvote1Downvote- Pieter OuwerkerkOctober 11, 2013Make sure the order taker gets order correct 4 tries to get a burger rare instead well done and then not mention she was out of yuengling lager and only had light b4 forgetting the fries altogether.UpvoteDownvote
