Palio Grand Rapids - (Near Grand Rapids, MI)

5 /5 Ender: The whole vibe is absolutely astonishing! THSI was a great sit-down restaurant for families. I hope i get to go back here someday as I loved it here so much! There is limited seating at some points in time but if you get there at a good time then you get right in!

4 /5 Terri Beth Almeida: The meatball appetizer was superb, they were so tender they fell apart.I ordered the chicken parmesan.The spaghetti was flavorless and there wasnt any sauce to speak of, just a bunch of diced stewed tomatoes.. very plain, no flavor at all. The breading on my chicken was very hard so I had to break the pieces off the edges & set aside- because Im not trying to break my teeth! The chicken and breading was also TOTALLY FLAVORLESS. I wouldnt order that again. My husband had the fettuccine presented with the tableside parmesan wheel, his dinner was excellent I loved the vibe, the service was excellent, I would definitely dine there again but would try something different next time!!

5 /5 Nicole Henry: We enjoyed celebrating our GVSU graduate with lunch today at Palio. Everything was perfect from the moment we walked in the door , the hostess greeted us warmly and in spite of the fact that we didn’t have reservations she politely said she’d speak to the GM about accommodating us & that they did! A HUGE Thank you to the GM for getting our party of 7 seated quickly. Now on to the service and food. Our server did a great job , very attentive and especially good to the kids in our party making sure they had refills etc.. The food was phenomenal. Calamari was so fresh! Light flaky breading. Entrees: Chicken Parmigiana, Alfredo,(kid and adult) Margherita Pizza, Spaghetti (kids) Carbonara and Chicken Marsala all spectacular. Wine was smooth and paired well . Gelato (kids) Tiramisu were fantastic. And the complimentary Limoncello shots were a sweet unexpected finale. Will definitely be back!

5 /5 Jennifer Zindler: We stopped in here for a last minute anniversary dinner and are so glad that we did. Everything was fantastic and well executed. I had the bisteco espresso dish, the sirloin was a perfect medium rare and well seasoned, my husband had the mezzanine a costine corte and loved it. We also found the Tuscan soup, ceasar salad and affagotto to be excellent. I found the price of a glass of sangria at $5.95 to be a steal, also while the prices arent cheap I found them to be reasonable compared to other places. I also heard a server discussing GF options and asking about cross contamination needs with another table. Ignore a few negative reviews here, a few are just very nitpicky and I suspect these people are just never happy. Well be back again when in the area.

5 /5 Paul V: If you are looking for an amazing authentic Italian place with a romantic atmosphere, THIS IS IT! The food was amazing and the staff is beautiful and friendly. The seating is very comfortable and romantic with the light music on the background. Highly recommend.
