Palma

Our first time at Palma, located in Roosevelt Row, offering Asian-inspired cuisine, creative cocktails, and a lively patio with fire pits. They are known as a brunch spot and are popular for their nightlife and Happy Hour, which runs from 11 am to 7 pm, Monday through Friday, with $8.00 frozen margaritas, $5.00-$7.00 sushi maki rolls, and specialty maki rolls from $5.00-$11.00. They also have a nice selection of "sharables" like Char-Grilled Edamame $5.00, Popcorn Chicken $9.00, Thai Curry Fries $5.00, and Hatch Green Chili Queso $8.00, to name a few. Shanda tried the Blood Orange Margarita and EXSW Margarita; both were delicious, and the Char-Grilled Edamame was so good my wife barely let me have any. The Maki Sushi rolls were fresh and packed with flavor. If you are looking for a hip and reasonably priced Happy Hour in Downtown Phoenix, this is the spot.

I went here for brunch and the food was great. Our server Heidi M was friendly and very attentive. I hear the sushi is amazing but, didn’t get a chance to try it since they start the lunch menu @ 2 pm. The Outdoor sitting was amazing however, in May at noon it got kind of hot and the sprinkler system was off. Other than this everything was great.

This is a hideaway place with great food. You could easily miss it if you're not paying attention while driving. Parking is not available, so be prepared to drive around for a while especially if it's after 5pm. We were seated promptly at our reservation time, it's a must to reserve your table beforehand or be prepared to wait even if tables are available. Our server was nice and professional. The food was fantastic and flavorful, especially the popcorn chicken and yummy fries. I could have easily just had those appetizers instead of the main meal. The only issue was when the appetizers were brought to the table there were no plates on which to eat them. We had get someone to bring plates to the table. Which seems odd. Forks and drinks were at the table, but no plates? That's why service got 4 stars. Otherwise the restaurant was on point.

I’m giving this 3/5, but my personal experience was 1/5. My fault that I went for brunch on Thursday, but they only have brunch on weekends, and this information was available on website, but I missed it. I didn’t like my beef tacos, so greasy. My coffee was cold, asked them to change it was still cold. Couldn’t drink it😐 It was just not a good experience. I pretty much had a mimosa for brunch and paid $45 including a tip! My friend actually liked her beef tacos and her espresso martini.

The only word I can say appropriately describes our experience is WOW. What a fabulous concept, menu and service staff. Exceeded every expectation. As a Chef, I was extremely impressed with the menu and the flavors were phenomenal! Thank you for existing!

First time here and the service was outstanding (always checking on me, refilling drinks, friendly); food was incredible (I had charred edamame and crunchy palma sushi) and cocktails on point! I had a prickly mojito. Cool vibe and great music! Highly recommend!

La Palma was so good! The sushi nachos were next-level and the shrimp tacos were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Definitely would eat here again!
