Came here in for a quick drink while I was waiting for a show and couldn’t be happier. Friendly staff, great drinks and a very relaxing atmosphere. If you are looking to unwind after a long day with a perfectly crafted drink this is the place to go. Austin was my bartender and I had the Gentlemen Buck.
Palmetto has great drinks and a great look, but it also has infamously terrible acoustics and chilly, bordering on rude service. The space desperately needs some sort of sound baffling to mediate the bare floors and return the sound level to something more appropriate for a cocktail bar. Honestly it prevents me from going there more often.
The cocktails are sharp. The natural wine knows what it’s doing. Dry plants, good shadows. The music’s loud enough to cover for you if you’re nervous. Which helps. The bar’s all elbows and leaning in. But the booths—that’s where it happens. Curved little velvet coves. You sit too close and knock knees if you want to. And you do.
Once, in one of these booths, someone handed me a Shohei Ohtani baseball card from Japan. Just passed it across the table...
