    Our dining experience at Palmer’s after a comedy show at Lexington Green was absolutely fantastic! From the warm and attentive staff to the delicious food, everything exceeded our expectations. We were delighted with our meal selections and thoroughly enjoyed the excellent wine choices. The restaurant's interior is beautifully maintained, offering a classy and inviting atmosphere. And when the patio is open in warmer months, it provides a perfect spot to dine while taking in views of ducks and swans on the water. A truly wonderful experience—we look forward to another return!

    Our meal was delicious! There were 3 of us, and we all had great meals. I asked for recommendations and our server provided many choices. Two of us went with recommendations, and they did not disappoint! The service was attentive, refills were consistently supplied without asking, and food came out fast. We will definitely go here again.
