    Our second time eating at a CH and I’m so impressed. It has a huge menu which is often a problem but not here - everything we’ve had (in two different places) has been great and both time we had 6 people. I wish they’d continue expanding west into San Diego!!! It would be an instant hit.

    Used to be my all time favorite restaurant. When we first started going to Wildfire, my horseradish crusted fillet was $36. It’s now $58. I’m sure it was at least 20 years ago, but that is one outrageous increase in price. It prevents us from going to the restaurant more often than we do. Now if we go once a year, it’s just a special treat. We used to go a lot more often. However, times, Covid, etc. are all reasons we can’t go more often anymore. I do believe the prices are totally outrageous. So sad.

    We carry out a lot but always done in with the family at Xmas. Never sat in the room behind the bar before. It was quite warm. Service was great. We pre ordered pizza but the sandwich one of us ordered came out almost at the same time as our salad and apps. So too quick. Other than that service was friendly and on top of things for such a busy night.

    It was a lovely evening with my Husband and adult goddaughter. We picked a good restaurant to celebrate Christmas. We were seated immediately with a reservation at 5:00. Having the smaller menu for the Christmas Holiday was a very good idea. You still had many choices and we never felt rushed. We enjoyed a leisurely dinner, with a cocktail to start and a delicious dessert. It was a good choice and never felt like we were being rushed. Glad we chose Palm Court Restaurant for our Christmas Dinner.
