text: Reading all the previous reviews noting the douchebagAfflictionwearing customers dining at this restaurant I was a little bit apprehensive It really is not my crowd but we were staying at the hotel and my guy wanted steak so we went ahead and made reservations nnBoy was I pleasantly surprised From beginning to end this was a completely wonderful experience and everything was while not mindblowing but very solid and well donennAtmospherenI can see how this place could get a little loud We arrived early because we had a show to catch so it was not bad and we did not have to shout to speak to each other I liked that this was a nice place but pretty casual and not at all stuffy It was also a nice mix of clientele couples older businesstypes bachelorette parties and everyone in betweennnDrinksnWe started off with gin martinis and they actually had blue cheese stuffed olives noone ever has those haha so that was awesome I did not see that they had a crazy wine selection but they do have decent choices from what they do carry I had a fantastic Malbec that was exactly what I was in the mood for nnApps nTheir bread basket is nice with really delicious rich almost cheesy tasting butter They also gave us a complimentary amuse of the most adorable sliders It was kind of like pot roast on the inside super tender The carpaccio was great Nothing super creative but very well done The lobster potstickers while highly recommended by the staff were fine but not mindblowing I will chalk it up to me growing up eating amazing potstickers from my mom so potstickers do not impress me that easily The bokchoy that the potstickers were cooked on were actually more interesting than the potstickers themselvesnnEntrees nSurfnTurf filet was cooked perfectly rare and well seasoned Great texture and came with a generous lobster claw on top My boyfriend loved it I ordered the lamb chops Again perfectly medium rare and well seasoned While not gamey they do taste like lamb while I love but not everyone might feel the same We did not order the sides because while we were super intrigued by them we knew we would have no room for them We still had leftovers without the side dishesnnService nThe servers and bussers were really gracious friendly and helpful They actually forgot to bring my wine at first so they comped it I also saw that the bachelor party sitting across from us were getting complimentary shots from their server I believe that they have the attitude of generosity here which I appreciatennNNE was a lot of fun and we had a great time If we were staying at Palms again we would not hesitate to come back
