The Palm - Atlanta

I stayed at the Westin hotel and this was the restaurant in the hotel. The hotel was amazing. This restaurant was just okay. Very expensive. But the food was not worth the price tag. I ordered the octopus appetizer, the lobster bisque and a side of asparagus. For 16 bucks for asparagus, they were pretty bland. The octopus was tender but very dry. My husband makes better octopus. And the lobster bisque was all bisque and no lobster. Service was nice but could not get over the food. Only reason I would eat here again would be to get Marriott points.

This review is for the bar only. The Palm is attractive in a very nice hotel for a conference. The first night I had dinner with a colleague at a nice restaurant down the street. I had a glass of wine after by myself at the Palm's classic dark wood bar. A live musician was playing in the lobby nearby. Very civilized.On night two we had a conference dinner in one of the ballrooms. A large group of us came to the lobby sofas nearby for Manhattans and other cocktails. One of the bartenders served our large group of nine with graciousness and humor. And he gave us separate checks!Expensive. That's to be expected at any Palm or nice conference hotel. Loved the mural in the restaurant.

I have been to a few of their other locations and always thought it was a fun vibe with the caricatures on the wall and friendly service. This location inside the Westin has the same caricatures on the wall but is missing the friendly service and...sorely.I was here with a very large party for two consecutive nights, Tuesday and Wednesday this week and spent some serious $$$$. The bartenders were plain grumpy and rude to some of the folks in the party and ruined what was supposed to be a fun night. We wrote off the first night as an aberration and went back which was our mistake. Won't do that again. Please take your $$ and business somewhere else. This place needs new bartenders!

Hosted by the beautiful Westin Buckhead, this place was one of the only options available last minute for Thanksgiving dinner and they did NOT disappoint! We did have to wait an extra 20mins to be seated but that's expected when families are eating and getting carried away by conversation. Our server April was absolutely outstanding! You could definitely tell she had been serving for a good 10+ years. Extremely attentive, knows how to read the table and offer exemplary service. Great sense of humor too, even though she was stuck working the holiday. I ordered the Sea Bass Oscar, and it was to DIE FOR. Very light meal overall but between the Bearnaise and the crab stuffing, it was the perfect amount of food to fill you up with the bread that comes out prior. My husband order the Gnocchi and it was quite spicy but the gnocchi itself was extremely tender and great warmed up as leftovers!The ambience is fine dining, expect to wear something nice. Button-ups and nice pants or a nice pair of jeans. No suit required but I'm sure they appreciate the extra dress-up. If we ever host Thanksgiving again and need a restaurant, we'll be sure to give this place another try!

5 star food...5 star service...5 star ambiance. Can we just say 5 star across the board? I visited during what is probably the lowest attended meal of the week-midday Saturday. Let's just say it was perfect for me. Party of one, great attention, accommodations for my dinner at lunch requests with a smile and approachable, appropriate chit chat. Compared to my less than pleasurable, hurried meal last night at one of Atlanta's 'top tier steakhouses'...this experience today reclaimed my faith in the high end meal experience in the ATL. Thank you Palm staff and leadership for an absolutely top notch experience all around.

Came here for dinner. Sat at the bar over 30 minutes without anyone acknowledging me. Sure, busy, but no excuse. This is a 180 from the two great lunches I had. But ignoring me for now 32 minutes goes beyond rude service. - No love on Valentines Day

Could have been 5 but we had one small inconvenience (this was taken care of and completely made up for). From the moment we arrived- everyone was very friendly and efficient. The food was incredible, bartenders were great as well (we sat in their section at a lively table) Tomahawk steak was excellent, all the sides and the lamb were superb! Drink menu is very interesting, the cocktails come out delicious and very u

Only sat at the bar each time I went. Had a great experience each time. Amy the bartender is very hospitable and accommodating. I like that it's a very relaxed and calm ambience. Definitely my go to place for lunch

The service at this location is absolutely horrible. I had a 230 reservation. I did not get my food till after 430. I didn't get my check to almost 530. The only reason I stayed is because the people I was with stayed in this hotel, and needed to have lunch before they went to the airport. my pasta was cooked well but my spinach and shrimp. They went in it what cooked horrible the steak we ordered was over cooked. We could never find our server and we had to continuously pour our own bottled wine and bottled water that they had set up all the table next to us because the server was never around. I will never go back to this location. It was terrible, and the ambience was so dry and the staff was not pleasant at all.

Their calamari was chewy. For the price I expected a soft buttery bite but instead I got what you get at most places, subpar. I got the lobster gnocchi and it was honestly terrible. It had way too much flour, it was really dry. The lobster bits were so small you almost couldn't see them and the vodka sauce just tasted like cream, nothing like some amazing vodka sauce I've had before. I wouldn't pay $5 for it, let alone $42. I literally would have been better off getting packaged gnocchi and vodka sauce from Walmart. I also tried the center cut filet and it just tasted burnt with literally no flavor, no butter, nothing. They cooked it well, it was tender but not worth it. Just take my word for it and avoid this place.
