Restaurants near Palo

“Tried Whiskey River for the first time last night. I want to preface this by saying that I called last week and asked if they could accommodate a party of 12-15 the next Monday. The girl who answered (i think it was Lacey but im not 100% sure) was very sweet and said they could forsure do that. I told her it was for my daughter's 21st and she even told me she gets a free shot. Over the weekend more people decided to join us. So Monday morning I called back and asked if the could accommodate 25. I also told her we were willing to sit on the patio to make it easier. She said it was no problem and that she would let the night staff know. Lacey was very sweet and professional! On to my review. Our party showed up between 530 and 6 in increments. I was late (I always am lol) and found out our server was Leann (spelling?) She was very sweet and ran her bitt off all night. We are a demanding but kind group so I give her props. Also because we were on the patio there were flies and a lot of the no-see-um bugs. Absolutely, nothing that they could have done about the no-see-ums, but she apologized at the end of our meal anyways. So I thought that was very thoughtful of her. They did have fans to help (it didn't no offense) so I would suggest maybe the fire pits or the tiki heaters to help stave them off. (They are attracted to Co2 and moisture) Not sure if it would work but it's worth a shot :) The food took a little bit for some (we had 25 people order in a 10 min period I am NOT complaining at all) but was hot and fresh (definitely not warmer hot) when it came out. So of the dishes we tried: Wings - Delicious. Flavor and sauce was so good. Dill Pickle Cheese Curds - huge serving. Just the right amount of pickle flavor. Fajita Salad - huge portion of steak well made Whiskey Burger - good flavor. A little too well done but still good Chicken Tenders - flavorful and seemed to be the hand breaded type. Pulled Pork Nachos - Huge portion. Good mix of toppings. Lots of meat. Steak - Cooked to perfection and delicious Chicken Sandwich - Huge. Crispy buy not too. Good flavor. OVERALL 9.5/10 Will definitely be back”

“after finding me in the dumpster, instead of being afraid or warning me off the manager actually asked me if I needed something to eat. I was treated to an ever bowl and it was amazing. absolutely delicious. being a vegetarian, and not a very good one I don't really get nutrition like I should. Both workers were absolutely amazing, cheerful and had a wonderful attitude towards their fellow human being. I recommend this place greatly. thank you so much for the new food experience.”

“portion sizes are good. the staff is attentive and friendly the prices are fair and the food isn't bad. if you have a certain preference. I suggest that you ask.
