    This is a high end steakhouse chain and while the food was good the quality of the steak was less than Ruth's Chris, Bob's or the Capitol Grille. Nonetheless it is a wonderful meal, albeit pricey. When I worked in DC years ago this was a go to restaurant. It is good, don't get me wrong, but it was exceptional in the old days. We went on a Tuesday night and it was noticeably quieter than I remember. Perhaps that's because they were working on a tax bill on the Hill and many lobbyists, Members and staff were otherwise preoccupied. In any event, you cannot go wrong with the Palm.

    The Palm continues to provide a consistently high quality dining experience. For a top notch steakhouse, the Palm offers other notable dishes such as the Parpadelle that I ordered. My waiter was excellent as he always is.

    Always great food and service. Noise was a little loud due to a poorly mannered family and a loud mouth father.

    Our waiter seemed rushed, not personable. So incredibly noisy we couldn’t converse. Bland veal chop with no seasoning. Osso bucco was good. The environment because of the noise level was just very uncomfortable and not enjoyable for what I thought was an upscale restaurant.
