The service along with having an authentic delicious meal in the most beautiful setting made our dining experience fantastic. It's hard to find a jewel Italian restaurant that excels in every category but Palma is the real deal.

Safe to say this is one of the best Italian restaurants in NYC. Food is phenomenal, service is top notch, and the atmosphere is welcoming / beautiful. Started out with focaccia and artichoke. Loved both, fully recommend them! Focaccia was so perfect, airy, soft, delicious. The artichoke was super good! You don’t usually see this dish so I thought it was unique and a phenomenal dish! The cheese added a super good flavor profile. Entrees we went with were the tortellini in butter/sage + the ragu. Both here were also delicious. The ragu had tons of meat and the tomato sauce was great. The tortellini was stuffed with a delicious buffalo cheese. Ended the meal off with the tiramisu which was a highlight. We’ve traveled around Italy and this tiramisu was top tier. Service here was super good. Many touch points between the weight staff and our table. The atmosphere was very enjoyable, not very loud. Thought the decor and vibe were A+. Hope to sit in the back room next time. Also the tables are spread out pretty far which is nice so you’re not right next to people which a lot of other restaurants do. I would 100% recommend this restaurant to anyone just make sure to book your reservation as far in advance

As a preface, I eat out a lot and have been to plenty of incredible restaurants - Palma is hands down one of the best meals I’ve had in NYC. Every dish that came out somehow topped the one before it. I was so impressed I even asked our server if they had a Michelin star (they should!). I’m so blown away and still thinking about the food. Couldn’t recommend it more - a life changing, “death row” meal.

We were 3 women going to see a film nearby after our luncheon. Palma was recommended to us by someone who lived in the Village on that street for many years.. We were advised to dine in the garden room that was fully indoors but full of light and foliage, it was lovely.. Menu had nice variety of antipasti, interesting salads, pastas with fish, meats. Everything, however, was pricy: salads at $34, pasta dishes $34 and up to $72. The focaccia was very good and reasonably priced. So we shared the Tagliatelle with 3 meats--very tasty tomatoey sauce and well prepared. We were planning to share a salad as well but the salad with nice variety greens and chicken dark meat slivers was too small to share, so one person had it entirely ...The lowest cost wine was $17 and seemed to be less than 5 ounces. The total bill was $118.68 for2 luncheon dishes, 1 focaccia and 2 glasses of wine...NY is expensive but this seems to be over the top.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Hidden Gem That Feels Like Italy in the Heart of the West Village Palma is truly something special. From the moment I stepped inside, I felt transported straight into a rustic Italian countryside restaurant—warm, intimate, and completely removed from the hustle and bustle of Manhattan. It's the kind of place that instantly shifts your mood. The food was exceptional—rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every dish had that authentic, homemade Italian feel that's hard to find in the city. The ambience is romantic and charming, and the service was thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Whether you're looking for a cozy dinner, a date-night spot, or simply a place that feels like a little escape, Palma is an absolute must. I can't wait to go back.

Had the best chicken milanese that can be humanly made here, it was just so delicious! I have a similar comment for the butter and sage pasta, the taste was so delicate! We just absolutely loved our date here. The vibe is candlelit and is excellent for a dinner in the fall!

Palma was incredibly thoughtful with my allergies. I am allergic to eggs, nuts, soy, legumes, and other things. They made sure that I could have what I wanted and was so diligent about making sure there was no cross-contamination. Chloerose, Andie, and the chef made it an incredible experience. I often do not get to eat pasta on Italian restaurants so this was very special to me.
From the door team to the servers, bussers, and the somm, everyone was so welcoming and kind for my birthday. Amazing team!

It was more than a dinner, it was literally MAGICAL experience (every step, every page of the menu, every piece of tableware, every gesture of the staff who took care of us) and my family was nothing but delighted with food, ambience and hospitality!! and the FLOWERS, oh, the flowers!! Absolutely wonderful, absolutely must visit for everyone who wants to try the best (imho) Italian food in nyc and no doubt get the best wine options. Im so happy we decided to try different meals, and from the very first bite of focaccia we enjoyed everything. Can’t wait to be back and explore more!!
