John Palmer's food has never failed to impress me. Even though I am not a fan of seafood, my wife prefers to get the lobster nachos. We've only been there three times so giving 5 stars wouldn't be prudent at this juncture.
* reservations are a good idea, is normally very busy thursday thru saturday.
* The hostess normally can accomdate your favorite seating area.
* Drinks are expensive, but they specialize in wine. You can get some good deals on bottles on the right nights
* I normally get the filet, perfect every time. They are not adverse to special ordering sides.
* my wife normally gets the salmon. she has never sent anything back.
* Don't bring your kids. They have a kids menu but it's a classy place and panini's is right around the corner. Save the place for adults.
Just a tad pricey, you are looking at $200 for four adults to hang, drink, eat and have a good time.
