I love Palio for happy hour for the amazing pizzas to nosh on while meeting new friends at the bar. Great financial district crowd always. Last night I went for dinner and who knew that a place in the financial would be so great on a FRIDAY night? I guess I am the last to know that this is the spot to dine in SF. Service was amazing, our waiter not only answered a bunch of questions on the new seasonal menu but made great recommendations on wine pairing as well.
TRY IT! Great for business or fun...
Pros: Service and FOOD!
Cons: None, walk there and go out in Union Square after
"last night my family and I went to Palio's for the first night of Dine about Town. First off, their dine about town menu offers three choices (Fish, Meat, and Vegetarian). Seeing as I'm not a huge fish fan and I don't eat pork,and because no substitutes where allowed I was left with the Vegetarian meal.Our first course was about average, my fig and cheese spread was ok, nothing outstanding, and the Meat appetizer looked like cold cuts at a Superbowl party. Our main dishes, which came late, where underwhelming to say the least. The Polenta was drenched in a mushroom gravy. The spaghetti was bland and worst off all was the fish..it was so salty it was hard to eat... I ended up spitting it out! My mom had to down two bottles of water during dinner just to get it down... The highlight however, was dessert each one of us had a fabulous concoction. Also the service was good, but not enough for me to go back...."
This is the place! My husband and I come here at least once a month to enjoy the pizza and wine selections. The chef is always creating new delights to enjoy and the decor is simply stunning. I love it!
Pros: Great food. Great selections. Romantic.
Cons: Not a one.
Nothing to get excited about here...although I hear the Happy Hour is good.
Pros: Parking
Cons: Boring, Location
Consistently great food, with even better service! The staff, especially the bartenders, are warm and friendly and always attentive. The wine list is creative and the pizzas are fabulous!
We had a lovely meal here the other night. My friend and I met here for drinks at happy hour, which was great, and then continued our night there with dinner. The food was great and the service professional. I'll be back soon.
Pros: friendly service
