Palate Bistro & Bar

I was happy to find this "upscale" restaurant right down the street. I put "upscale" in quotes because I don't want to mislead customers into thinking this is an expensive, fancy restaurant. It is casual, but you can go fancy if you want, and fit right in. The bar has multiple TVs to watch the games or news on, but I wouldn't call it a sports bar restaurant, the restaurant atmosphere is candlelit and romantic. My first meal here was on Valentine's Day 2023 and it was every bit lovely. I have been to Palate many times in the last year, and have never had a bad meal. Food and drinks are excellent and unique. I absolutely LOVE the Stuffed Jalapenos for an appetizer, and the Pesto Shrimp Cavatappi for an entree (I usually have leftovers for lunch the next day there's so much of it). My drink of choice is the spicy Pineapple Jalapeno Margarita, but my BF loves the Smoked Old Fashioned, and the Whiskey Sour . I've also had the Boursin Fried Eggplant, Mini Beef Wellington, Lobster Bisque, Crab Ragoons, Grilled Filet Mignon - ALL DELICIOUS! My BF's favorite is the Chicken Katsu, and both he and my neighbor claim the Palate Burger is "the best burger I've ever had." My mom loves the Turkey Dinner, and also says the sweet potato mash is the best she's ever had. I've gone for Brunch once, and will be back. I had the Smoked Salmon Bites, and my BF had the Palate Pancakes. Again, DELICIOUS. Rose and Izzy are wonderful servers, and I always enjoy seeing them. Very friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable for the amount of food, and quality you get. Hunter's Creek locals can look for coupons in our monthly mailers, and I have received coupons via email as well. I highly recommend Palate Bistro & Bar.

Ambience of the restaurant is lovely but the food quantity for brunch is so so small like you are trying to attend a sampling event. I would rather pay more and fill my stomach. Not sure if I would return.

Excellent local spot with a great diverse menu. The owner and staff are very personable. Highly enjoyed our meal here!

I love everything about this place. This is exactly what Hunters Creek has needed. I’ve been frequenting this location for several months now. It is such a gem. The food is delicious. Every single time, the environment is ambient and so relaxing! Vicki, the bartender and manager, will always find a way to make you smile and she loves being creative, so she is always excited to whip you up some sort of concoction.

The place was well kept, clean, and accommodating. Excellent staff....they were pleasant and made you feel at home. I loved every bit of. Food was delicious. I would recommend this resort to anyone. As for me, this will be my comfort zone. Parking: There were plenty of parking. Compound was clean and well kept. Kid-friendliness: Not mant kids were present but those who were there seemed very happy and playful.
