I'm still stunned at how delicious they were. I had the Smokey shrimp as well as the shrimp and bacon tacos on corn tortilla and they were just incredible. I'm not certain, but I the corn tortillas tasted home made. Highly recommended - and I don't even particularly like shrimp! Can't wait to go back for more of these tacos and to try the asada. Also, their verde crema salsa is fantastic! As fast as as ambiance, it's small, but clean with a nice little salsa bar!

My goodness, the 'beef' gravy tasted like flavored cornstarch, and the cheese curds, well they were melted, hard to find and no well-known 'squeak'. I have had poutine across the US, and Canada, and this is by far the worst tasting, not even close, poutine ever. It was really bad. So disappointed. I then decided to go with the blackened chicken spinach wrap that was very dry chopped chicken with no flavor whatsoever. The chips that came with it tasted weird. If my friend did not insist on paying the bill, I would've sent the food back. The place was busy and probably a hang out for some that may have been there tubing in the river and needed someplace close to eat, or definitely do not know what good food is. Our server didn't seem to know what he was really doing. Definitely will not be going back as this seasoned cook, and retired very successful chef, would not recommend this place if you want good food.

We walked in knowing what we are going to order. We ordered the Monte Kristeaux. It was good but we weren't blown away by it. We thought it would be more of a sandwich that you can hold in your hand but the blueberries and egg were on the outside. I think the blueberry compote should have been pieces and a little more squished. They were round blueberries that kept rolling around. Taste was it was good. The chicken fried steak biscuits were superb. The chicken fried steak was fried to perfection and we loved the crispy flakiness on the outside. Loved the bacon pieces on top of the gravy. It's a must order. The potatoes were ok. A bit cold when we received it. However, the sweet potato fries were sooo good. Probably the best I've had ever. Loved them and will be thinking about them. The chocolate chip bread pudding was really good but for $13 for that slice we might pass on that next time. Overall, we loved our brunch date and it was a great first time there at Palmers.

I hesitate with this review, because then you'll know. You'll know what I know; one of our…read morefavorites in San Marcos. You'll experience the inviting ambience we've enjoyed the minute you step along the courtyard then encounter welcoming and accommodating hostesses. You'll discover the same unique, rich, warm interior we discovered; an elegance to be appreciated, which bows to unpretentious Texas hospitality. You'll again be greeted by a helpful, charming, engaging waitperson. Our latest waitperson was Sami, a delightful young lady who tended to us as if we were her only table. You'll discover a menu with great selections with Chef Monty's personal flair and reasonably priced. If he can free himself, you'll most likely meet Monty, both owner and chef. It's hard to imagine a nicer guy unless it's Kyle, the manager! Palmer's atmosphere is suitable for casual conversation over a meal, for Sunday brunch, an anniversary, or a romantic date night. One of our favorite activities is evenings in the courtyard with wine and appetizers. Also, it's difficult to resist their desserts, by the way! Reservations are accepted on a limited basis, but "call ahead" is always available. There, I've said it. Against my better judgement, you now what I you know. The rest is up to you.

I tried the Let's Do Lunch menu and decided to go with the Grilled Avocado Chicken Sandwich--and…read moreI'm so glad I did! I opted out of the fries and chose the vegetable medley instead, which was absolutely delicious. The sandwich was completely loaded with avocado, pesto sauce, melted cheese, and two perfectly cooked pieces of bacon on a soft, heavenly bun. Every bite was packed with flavor and perfectly seasoned. The cheese was melted just right, and that bacon was cooked to perfection! And let me tell you about the vegetables--zucchini, cauliflower, and broccoli--so good! I would definitely order them again. The service was really good, and of course, you can't go wrong with the atmosphere. I absolutely will be ordering this sandwich again! I highly recommend trying the Lunch Special! Delicious food, great service, and a wonderful atmosphere.

Mash potatoes were gummie, fish didn't taste right, biscuit was like a dish sponge, one steak was fatty. Service was ok but I asked for a refill and never got it. For bar food it's fine. For a restaurant it may be one of the worst places I have eaten. I won't be going back.

The steak was cut vertically instead of the normal horizontal when you ask restaurants to split. But after getting over that it was a little less that medium with is what we asked for but it still tasted great. Not complaining. The ponuz sauce is tasty.
