    This place is run at a high-level with the goal of always ensuring the diners enjoys their dining experience. Shortly after placing our order, we were informed that the kitchen had no more of the lamb dish to sell. However, a few minutes later, the manager came by and let us know that the kitchen was willing to prepare and cook one for us (probably from the stock allotted for the following day). A+ customer service, and the food never disappoints.

    Came here for my boyfriend’s birthday with his parents. From start to finish, our experience was amazing- which is happening less and less in NYC. The staff was so kind and friendly and knowledgeable with the menu. The atmosphere was beautiful! Quiet, cozy, not overwhelming and so clean. We started with the focaccia which was delicious and a couple of other appetizers. We all enjoyed our dishes and it was the perfect portion. Their cocktails are great too! Especially the classic spritz. The staff was so attentive and made my boyfriend’s day feel extra special. Thank you, Palma! Can’t wait to return.
