    24 oz iced Callisto with Oat Milk
    Destiny G.

    With a cosmic vibe that's out of this world, the coffee had me soaring through the galaxy, dreaming of future road trips that land me back on this planet of flavor! Thank you for fueling my journey, your newest fan from Tennessee!

    Entrance to Coffee & Gelato place

    New coffee, tea and gelato place in downtown Palisade. They are next door to Peche. They are open 7 days a week. They offer hot & cold beverages, light pastries, breakfast sandwiches and gelato. Nice brightly lit space with a large shaded back patio. There is another seating area next to sidewalk. I got a hot Matcha Latte with whole milk. The staff said the matcha was unsweetened, so I added Peach syrup. I got their last Blueberry Lemon scone. All for only $9.12; The accept debit/credit cards or cash. I will be back to try their gelato.

The food was delicious as always. My suggestion is to try multiple different taco's because they are all very good. My favorites are the Oaxacan, fish and quesabirria. For appetizers you can't go wrong with the guac and elote. Now for the 2 things that motivated me to write the review. The cocktails were exceptional!! The fresh peach margarita is a must when in season. Last but not least the service was the best I have experienced in a looong time! Our waitress was attentive, engaging and friendly. She really made it all come together. I wish I remembered her name to give her credit.

They do have outdoor seating as well as indoor seating. Vibe is that of a typical, nicely and modernly decorated Mexican restaurant. Interestingly, they do serve shots on a wood platter (similar to that of a cortado with sparkling water palette cleanser), and half shots as well that seemed popular to the locals. The man that told us to visit here actually told of us this, and we saw it in action. We had to tap out after a day of wine tasting. Our party of 4 ordered the Oaxacan, Carne Asada, Bomb Ass Fish Taco, and Pork Carnitas. I would rank them in that order too from best to least best (none were bad, but the pork carnita felt a little dry as the overall consensus of the table). The Poblano fries were amazing. They tasted truly fresh and right off the fryer. It comes with 5. Loved the aioli and salsa too. Lastly, they had a house made pineapple habanero hot sauce that was AMAZING! Service was kind, attentive, and no complaints.

I found a local bar with a full service restaurant, 357 Bar & Grill. It was open daily during the summer, with reduced days in the winter. It had chicken fried steak on the menu for $21.99 which comes with 2 sides. I chose seasoned fries and green beans. I added a Palisade Peach Wheat draft. The wheat beer was great. The steak was covered with real cream gravy. It did not taste as the powdered version. The seasoned fries were actually waffle fries and I got a full cup of green beans. They add a card process fee, but indicate a lower amount on the bill if paying in cash. While there, several groups of locals came in. The dining area was clean and cool. I learned they serve breakfast.

We saw the waitress only when she took the order, brought food, and payment. The most unfortunate thing is that if you were a regular, the service was quick, social, and of higher quality. The regulars are us boasted about the restaurant while we were forgotten. The experience should be consistent for all patrons. The ambience was good because it was the palisade farmers market, but we didn't feel uplifted on the way out. It was very disappointing to leave unsatisfied and undervalued.

I learned the owner is Mary Lincoln who's been in business since 1980 for 37 years. It's a homey place with multiple tables and a chalkboard menu.

A good quantity of well cooked bacon and plenty of spinach in a light crust. The cinnamon twist was soft and slightly warm from the oven. The Mystic Chai was in an immense cup.

They have a large selection of fresh pastries and other baked goods. We decided to try the peach blueberry cinnamon roll, cream cheese pastry and peach cake - all of which were delicious. The frosting on the cinnamon roll and cake was too sweet for our taste - a heartier cream cheese based frosting or something less sweet would've been the perfect balance to the pastries. The smothered breakfast burrito was amazing - great flavor and fresh ingredients with a neat take on green chili. The mocha was yummy too. We highly recommend stopped here whenever you are in the area.

We ordered a hamburger with a side of sweet potato fries (note I'm not a big fries eater, but the burger and fries were truly delicious). The burger was cooked to perfection, the slices of tomato were juicy and ripe and the fries were crispy with a creamy interior. We ordered a slice of the peach pie for dessert. The huge slice was topped with a crumble, side of whipped cream, along with small balls (molecular process?) of juicy peach balls. We came on the early side for happy hour (2 specialty drinks for the price of one- 9.00) two sangria flavors (green apple or peach)...whilst a tad sweet, we're good. The peach is less sweet than the green apple. If there are two of you ordering, order one per person and you can return for your second one even after happy hour ends.

We opted for the more informal setting of the Tapestry experience over Caroline's. We're staying at the Wine Country Inn in Palisade this week and thoroughly enjoying our stay!

I ordered from the Tapestry menu. My burger on a gluten free bun was phenomenal!!! My husband ordered the New York Strip off Caroline's menu, and he thought it was quite good. The ambience of this room is very warm and welcoming. I highly recommend dining here! Our server, Juan, was also really attentive and helpful. Tonight was a 5 star experience!
