    Food was great, drinks were good. But the server came over and took all our plates without asking or talking And we still had things we were picking on and our drinks we were finishing.

    We love Palmilla, the ambiance is so inviting and makes you feel like you are vacationing on a beach. Awesome tasty drinks and food is delicious. Instead of chips and salsa they bring you fresh house made flour tortillas with a green salsa, red salsa and butter for dipping. Everything is sooo good. Thank you Palmilla for another wonderful experience
