    I’ve eaten at the old location several times and the food was great. This was my first visit to the new location. Beautiful location with a great ambiance. We ate lunch and overall had a great experience. That said my wife had the Puppy Drum Almondine and was thoroughly pleased. I had the Crab and Brie soup which was outstanding. However I chose the special burger for the day and was less than satisfied. It was a combination of two patties of meat which one was veal. I found it difficult to pick up and eat because the bun was falling apart. The flavor, while interesting, was not to my liking. I would not order again. Let me be clear, I like this restaurant and will return again. I just would not order this burger.

    Impressive is the word that comes to mind. I usually steer clear of buffets because the quality of the food is usually sub-par. This was not the case at Palmettos. We were there for the Sunday jazz brunch. The selection of breakfast and lunch items were nothing but impressive. I tried as manny choices as my stomach would hold (a personnal pittfall with me and buffets) and everything deserved seconds except I always wanted to try something different. The setting was beautiful as well. We sat outside on the deck surrounded by cypress trees and next to the Bayou Bonfouca.
