The Palms has some of the best salads in Rowan. They are hearty, fresh and full of flavor. The service is quick and accurate. Their breakfast is another thing that brings us back. Love the healthy options and the knowledgeable staff on adjusting meals to meet dietary needs. Take out is always prompt and easy with the walk up window and call ahead ordering. read more

Have eaten there several times in the last few months. Have been very satisfied. Another favorite place for Salisbury.

We hadn't been here since they remodeled. They did a great job. The restaurant is now full service. We were seated quickly, and our drink order was taken immediately. The menu appears to be the same as when it was on the wall, but it is now all in a menu. My husband had a roast beef sandwich with French fries. I had a cup of cream of potato soup. The sandwich was thick, full of tender thinly sliced roast beef. My soup was thick with potatoes and some vegetables, perfectly spiced. It was so good I wish I had ordered a bowl. We will be back soon. read more

Met a friend here for lunch today, as it was a good half-way point for both of us. It was quiet when we got there with just a few others eating lunch. You order at the counter, they give you a number and bring your food when it's ready. People were friendly, service was ok (it was basically self-serve other than having your food brought out), food was good but we weren't wow'd. They have a large menu and serve breakfast all day. We enjoyed that they have outdoor seating and we didn't feel rushed. read more

Has a great black bean burger you can veganize by excluding the mayo and cheese. Tip tho add an extra patty since i didnt get full and bring your vegan mayo. Really wish person that took our order was friendly tho it was our 1st time there but i guess she had a long day ill give her a break lol. read more

Outstanding service. Food is to die for, twice, because proportions are big enough for two meals. Ordered: 1) New York, New York: the cafe favorite. Four different types of meat, roast beef, pastrami,turkey and corned beef served on grilled rye bread with Swiss Cheese, and Thousand Island Dressing. Loaded Garden Omelet: spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, and Pepper Jack Cheese. By eating outside on their tables I was able to take my dog to sit at my table with me. They even gave me a container for ice water for my dog to enjoy. Best food I have had in a long time. read more

Food was alright my roommate and i did the make your own omlet. they put wayy to many muchrooms in with the other ingrediants, they kinda skimped on the other ingredients. My roomate had gotten tomatos mushrooms and spinach with american cheese. it was pretty much all spinach. I also thought it was over priced for just that and 2 orange juices it was 21 dollars. pretty crazy in my opinion. i do plan to go back and try their normal food. over priced. was my main problem read more

I went for breakfast paid for four it was almost $70 dollars which included one egg most restaurants give you 2 or 3 a piece of French toast cut in half. Precooked bacon I was not happy with my breakfast or the price. read more

We ate there tonight and were very pleased. The changes they made really make a difference. The food was great and the service was too. We will be back again soon read more

Love going here for breakfast, lunch, or just coffee. The interior is much more impressive than the exterior. I had no idea how nice it would be the first time I walked in as it looks a little "hole in the wall"-ish from the outside. So far, everything I've tried has been good :) read more

This restaurant recently got new owners in the last year or so. We've tried them out a few times but will no longer after today. Our Togo order was wrong and when I called to let them know they could either bring me a new meal or refund my money the owner didn't believe that my order was wrong and I then had to be inconvenienced more and drive the food back to the restaurant (20 minutes) to prove it was wrong. The owner is rude and doesn't care about their customers. I would visit one of the other many local restaurants in Salisbury and will not be recommending this restaurant anymore. read more

Another pay through the nose restaurant. Wheres the common sense when the dollar meets? Why can't they offer real ongoing specials? I just don't see buying this food when I can save money for better flavor of food. read more

The food was delicious! Very flavorful. I highly recommend the French Dip and home fries. Big servings for a reasonable cost. We also had the club which was enormous and delicious. read more

Another favorite. French dip is very good. Meatloaf is also very good. I would of given 5 stars but for some reason customer service the last time wasn't the best we've had here. It took a long time to get our food. We eat here a lot. I hope next time will be better. I would like to add, the lady that does the cleaning in the mornings and sometimes throughout the day. She is very clean. She is always working hard when we come in. Thank you!! read more

I went here for breakfast with a colleague on her suggestion after a long 12 hour shift and it was wonderful! The food was light, fresh, and very tasty. I had the Loaded Garden Omelet, fresh fruit, and homemade wheat toast with a medium latte. She had french toast with turkey sausage. Our bill came to $16 and change, perhaps a little pricey but the quality was there and the portions were large, so I didn't mind. The venue itself has a hipster coffee bar vibe, kinda like if Starbucks and Panera Bread had a baby but not so corporate. I will definitely be back to check out some other items I eyeballed on the menu! read more

While my wife was still in college, I'd always look forward to coming to Palms for a meal or a snack. It wasn't a far walk from where she lived at the time which was quite helpful when we'd want a quick gelato. As I've consumed a number of meals here, let me start with breakfast. Omelettes are large and quite filling. The side hasbrowns are also very generous. I'd often be up here after physically taxing weeks of work, and breakfast here could always sate me. Which is a feat in and of itself. My wife would often get the French Toast, which she would often ask me to help finish off, since the portion was big. Much like the breakfast options, lunch is also very filling. Their sandwiches are well made, but my favorite might be their salads. The Caesar with grilled chicken held me over for quite some time and the chicken was plentiful. Now, onto other options! The gelato is fantastic. House made and full of flavors to please all tastes. Sure, there is the chocolate and vanilla that can be expected, but I like to explore and try different flavors. Their sweet potato gelato tasted like the best parts of Thanksgiving. Well, minus the turkey and dressing. But the spices, and pumpkin notes in the sweet potato gelato made me lust over the simple pleasures of late Autumn. There is also beer. There are conventional options: Yuengling, Coors and some other big label beers, but I'm happy they feature beers from Mother Earth Brewing in Kinston, NC. I'm a sucker for a local beer, and I've long been a fan of Mother Earth's line of beers. I feel like my review isn't doing justice for Palms, and I think it has much to do with the large size of the menu. It reminds me of diners in the Northeast, where the menus cover much ground and everything comes out tasting great. I suggest giving Palms a try. They have something you will like. read more

I've had this restaurant one other time before and the service continues to be trash. I came in yesterday May 28th after my graduation for breakfast and there was about 9-11 people in my party. I get that the inside was reserved and they sat us outside that's perfectly fine it wasn't too early or too hot yet. The server didn't even take drink orders till about 30 mins after we arrived, again fine I understand they were busy. We then waited another 30-40 mins for the drinks to even get to the table, by then everyone in the party knew what they wanted and she still didn't take our orders when we told her we were ready. After our orders were finally taken we waited damn near 2 hours for the ducking food. And when my food specifically came I ordered and bacon egg and cheese sandwich with grits and corn beef hash as EXTRA SIDES I pulled some of the egg off the sandwich as I was still waiting for my sides to come out and the egg had SHELL in it. I had to complain about the sandwich 3 times before they took it back and when they did the "manager" I guess rushed outside with the male cook (keep in mind i'm an 18yo female) telling me that she PUT HER HANDS ON THE BREAD OF THE SANDWICH AND DIDNT SEE ANY SHELLS and that I was lying about what I know I ate. The male cook was overly aggressive and was very rude about remaking my order. When he bought it out the second time my order was completely WRONG there was no bacon and iI asked for scrambled eggs (the eggs were runny) he didn't make my sandwich and threw the plate down on the table. My mom then had to intervene with my dad and uncle because he was being so aggressive about the situation. read more

By far , my favorite breakfast in Salisbury. You must try it!! The loaded vegetable omelette is fabulous.

They allow dogs in their outdoor seating; I asked. The fries were old & cold; I expected fresh & hot. They don't deserve more than a $2 tip. No one asked me how my food was or brought me a napkin. The turkey club I ordered was good, arrived at the table fast, and was worth the visit, but it was $7.49 just for the sandwich. I'd try other spots for lunch before I'd come back. If I had to I would eat here again. But I wouldn't expect a 5 star experience. Sandwich, fries and fountain soda was $10.21 before tip. read more

I love Palms, and wish I could eat there more often. The food is always good, the service is great, and the atmosphere inside is cool.

Placing this review for those seeking gluten-free dining choices. So far, i am only aware of this place and Sweetmeadow Cafe in the Salisbury area. Palms is consistently good. read more

Every time we come here the food has been on point. Employees are always friendly. Cozy atmosphere.

Have been a couple of times and never been disappointed. Homemade chips are great. Salads , sandwiches are very good !! Parking is ok never been a problem. Staff is very friendly and always attentive. Haven't dined outside yet but looking forward to that soon. It is worth your time to stop in if you are in the area. read more

This place is incredible, from good food to a relaxing environment, it's a great place to go eat. They also have good coffee!

Visiting relatives and wanted a place that served some gluten free options. This place has lots of protein choices and offers a gluten free pancake that was yummy. All of the food was delicious. read more

The restaurant is a cafeteria style with lots of great options. The gluten-free French toast was delicious. The wait staff was very friendly and attentive. I would go back again! read more

Amazing food here. This is a great place to go given the large variety of options on the menu. Always busy but have always gotten a seat.

In town for the Polar Express Train Ride we decided to try this place for breakfast before going home. We read the reviews and decided to try it based on that and we're glad we did! This place is awesome for breakfast. I just wished we could stick around for lunch. The menu is a little overwhelming but the staff helped us simplify it. Our orders came out fast, they were cooked perfectly and the portions were perfect too. The wife said the home fries had a little too much seasoning but in my opinion they were great. Would definitely recommend for breakfast or lunch. Oh, and they have some desserts that look amazing. I wanted a piece of chocolate cake after breakfast but decided to save the calories for later in the day! read more

Never ever had a bad meal here. I Love some many different items on the menu and this place is often my weekly go to spot especially for lunch. I wish they were open on Sundays read more

I'm doing the rounds for breakfast, Palms is the only place that puts onions/green/red peppers in the home fries which is a cut above the rest AND they are a great value. My gripe is I can tell the potatoes were frozen then griddled. What's happened to real potatoes ?? are we having a plight that I don't know of?? southern style home fries ?? it's a shame you have to eat in New England to find them! read more

Great lunch spot. Are happy to adjust anything on the menu for dietary reasons or preference. Yummy, good quality soups, sandwiches and salads. read more

Although I am not a fan of the order and pay before you sit, self service restaurant model. I must confess the Palms Cafe has pulled this off very well. I recently ate there passing through town and let me tell you the home fries were by far the best I have ever had, notice I said ever and I am 60 yrs old. My breakfast was so good I stopped and got a lunch to go. Hamburger and fries and it was one of the best, if not the biggest hamburger I have had in the 2.5 years since moving to Concord, NC. If you are going down Interstate 85 through Salisbury NC and want to eat. Do yourself a favor and drive the 1.5 or two miles down Innes St. and enjoy a very pleasant and tasty treat. Highly recommended by a gastronomical genius. read more

Free fast, good meal, I highly recommend this restaurant. They have an extensive menu, and lots of very tasty options. Check out their soups, which I've always found to be great. read more

Awesome so much to choose from and fresh. There is something for everyone wether you are on a diet or not and organic too I also love their smoothies and their frozen coffee love it!!! read more

Great atmosphere, decor, personnel and food. The Salisbury Club was my first experience eating in here and was delicious!! Home made chips were perfect. I have to come back for their desserts and coffee bar and breakfast. Can't wait! read more

Best fries in Salisbury! Get the Dino's Applewood Bacon Turkey Sandwich. Tons of ingredients for a hardy sandwich. It's an awesome atmosphere conveniently located on Innes St.! read more

Palms is my favorite place to eat in town. The resturant offers a variety (healthy & unhealthy). My favorite is the nutty cranberry turkey salad. I also love the turkey and cheese sandwich on a croissant. I've never been disappointed with my food, however, the service isn't outstanding. read more

Pricey but a great place to meet up with family and friends. Love the outdoor area and lots of food choices. Employees have always been amazingly friendly. read more

Just because you pay fresh food prices does not mean that you're guaranteed fresh food. Example: they use canned spinach in their omelets. Yum. I have been to The Palms a few times and while it has never been great, it has yet to be bad. It is typically crowded/loud- a favorite lunch spot for co-workers. You order at the counter and put your number on the table. Most recently, I ordered the BLT. They asked if I wanted the sandwich toasted, and I said yes. When it came out, the bread itself was toasted, but the pepperjack cheese was cold. I might be the only one who thinks this odd; it was still on par for a BLT I suppose. This seems to indicate that a large portion of the food is assembled rather than cooked. Take that as you will. They serve Boar's Head deli meats, which is always a good sign in my book. The salads look yummy, though I've never tasted them. The gelato, however, looks quite sad. Still, it seems that you can find a good meal if you know what to get. I believe that The Palms could greatly benefit from a reduced menu featuring only their best items. If I ever came back, I might opt for an item that says "made to order"- and avoid anything containing spinach. read more

You know how Subway is all bread and little meat. Palms is the exact opposite. Excellent ingredients at a reasonable price. Even their breakfast sandwich is loaded with bacon. I just wish that they were open on Sundays. read more
