Soup to nuts, so they say, everything was fabulous. We enjoyed a nicely paced meal tonight and enjoyed the warm atmosphere both in terms of coziness and our lovely server, Juliana. She was absolutely wonderful. We began with cocktails which were a great start, followed by the goat cheese & lavender fondue. Yum-o!!! The crispy sweet apple, crunchy cauliflower & yummy focaccia bread were so fun pairing with the fondue! Main courses were the hangar steak & pork schnitzel. 100% comfort food! We finished up with their famous triple coconut pie & americanos. Everything met our expectations and was a really nice dining experience. Highly recommend.

Good delicious food as expected for the price with amazing service. Atmosphere is casual although you can dress up if you want for an occasion, but most people were in typical PNW outfits. The wood grilled chicken wings for starter were great but be prepared to get your hands dirty. They do provide wet towels afterwards. Drinks were good. The entree i ordered was the rockfish, it was perfectly cooked although salty. Got the coconut pie slice for dessert and it was heavenly, highly recommend that (of course it's a share portion because its a big slice.). Our server whose name i could not catch, was the best, made us feel welcomed and also took off the price of the pie slice because of a birthday celebration. Highly recommend!

What a special place. Everyone is super warm and sweet. Great choices on the menu. The schnitzel was perfect. Everyone on our party had a nice time. Service was super attentive and very thoughtful. We are coming back again soon to sit at the bar and try the rest of the menu including dessert. Definitely a Seattle institution. Chef Ron stopped by to say hello and greet us and we really enjoyed talking with him. What a great spot. See you again soon.

This was a spontaneous stop for dinner—and what an incredible surprise! From the moment we sat down, the service was top-notch. Our server, Jo, was fantastic, and the entire team worked seamlessly together like a well-rehearsed performance. The food? Simply outstanding. Our group ordered the trout, cod, and a burger, and every dish was cooked to perfection—some of the best meals we’ve had anywhere. The flavors, presentation, and attention to detail were truly impressive. Don’t miss the chance to dine here; whether you’re in the mood for a great meal or just a well-crafted drink, this place is a must-visit!

It was our first time back to palace kitchen since we moved out of Seattle. Our return was one of the best experiences we’ve had there… the food was amazing, the drinks were crafted with care especially the ones on special, and most importantly, the entire staff were the best! Treated us with care, turned us on to new items, and always ensured we were okay. We will be back asap!

It was a last-minute dinner plan, and we found this spot near our friend's office. We ordered the Goat Cheese Lavender Fondue, Chicken Wings, and the Palace Burger Royale. Everything tastes amazing! I highly recommend trying their Goat Cheese Fondue and Chicken Wings. The fondue came with apples, cauliflower, and grilled focaccia., very flavorful and delicious. The chicken wings were three wood-grilled and coated in chipotle tabasco, served with coriander cream. The spices gave you a really good kick!
