    Chicken and Avocado Chipotle Sandwich (speciality section) on a baguette
    Amanda W.

    We liked the diner, close to colleges and the portion sizes were great. Fries were great and chicken chipotle avocado on a baguette was super yummy grilled chicken is delicious. The juices were sweet but the cake display was very good and inviting. Friendly waiters and organized seating with booths.

    Palace is fantastic diner spot early in the day when it is busy. Everyone eats to fill a hunger pang, work off hangovers or get in on a new busy day. It has table side jukeboxes. Food is delicious: wraps, omelettes, soups. The food can be a bit sauce/chunk heavy. Fast diner! Review: 4

    Fat sammie!!!

    So, I went to the web site to order pick up. It's convenient to order online, so after I looked at the menu I went on to order and everything was more expensive. So if I order online I pay 3 or more dollars for the same item than if I call the order in. That's kinda BS, minus a star. I placed my order over the phone, picked up, and went back to eat with no issues. The food was really good. No complaints there. Except....they gave me soup with no spoon. Minus a star. Overall it wasn't a bad experience but geez - the online markup and lack of a spoon definitely leaves room for improvement.

    Your standard diner. Inexpensive, quick service and tasty food. Nothing spectacular but great for a quick meal. Portions were very reasonable and service was friendly.

    Ordered through DoorDash, though I picked it up. Order was done quickly and correctly. Service was prompt. This place has a HUGE menu, which is generally a red flag for me, but given this was just a dinner order for the night shift, I didn't have huge expectations. I got the chicken and pesto panini. Cheese well melted and veggies grilled. Chicken could have used some seasoning. Fries were ok. I got a side of fries because it wasn't clear that it accompanied the sandwich, so I ended up with a huge tub of fries I couldn't eat. My coworker got the Philly cheesesteak. While the bread appeared to be well toasted, she didn't care for her sandwich and only ate part of it. This is a hip, retro place with a way back feel inside. Tables have small jukeboxes. Lots of chrome finishes. Clean and bright inside. Could take some cool photos here. The giant menu includes a smorgasbord of sandwiches, salads, pastas, meat dishes, soups, stews, etc. They even have calamari on the menu. But is this where you want to get your calamari? It's a greasy spoon 24 hour diner. My food was mediocre. I had no expectation otherwise. Nobody is looking for Michelin stars.

    Pancake Combo Special

    We came here on a Thursday around 9:30pm. The restaurant was clean and open. Our group of five all ordered breakfast. Our server was efficient and took our order. He also kept our water glasses full. All enjoyed their meals. The breakfast sandwich was the highlight of our meals. It was the sausage egg and cheese on a nice roll. So much cheese and sausage and it was huge. Worth every penny of the 4.99 price!

    Poached eggs over corned beef hash and hollandaise sauce

    Came here to celebrate my SIL birthday. The boys ordered breakfast and the corned beef hash was great. No complaints from them. I ordered the grilled salmon salad and the salmon was so over cooked that it is super disappointing since it costs extra for salmon. If you come here, stick to breakfast or "diner type" fare. I wouldn't order the salads.

    Gyro Sandwich
    Lara G.

    I find this to be a good diner. The food is consistent and the service is good. Between the three of us, we ordered chicken souvlaki sandwich, bbq chicken sandwich, and gyro. Everything was tasty and well cooked. The portions are large, so nobody will go home hungry. The ambience isn't particularly warm, but it's a diner. The interior is clean albeit a little dated. They have old-school jukeboxes in the booths that are fun to look at. Overall, I would recommend this diner. It is better than others in close proximity. Solid and consistent food and service.

    Portobello Powerhouse Omelette
    Alycia G.

    Okay, I'm done with Palace Diner. It's only gone downhill since my experience with their chicken pot pie disaster, but today was even worse than the food. I ordered the Portobello Mushroom Omelette via Uber Eats, with a side of sourdough. Nowhere on the menu did it mention that it was made with marinara, otherwise, I would've left that off. Even worse, they packed the toast in the same container as the omelette, so the bread soaked up... whatever's brown?? I can't eat the food now, because it's drenched in marinara which ruins the taste for me. The bread is inedible, period. But the worst part, is that my order was picked up by a nice African American woman whom was harassed by the manager and accused of stealing my order. They handed her the order from behind the counter, and on her way out, the manager chased after her and accused her of stealing. She told him they had to hand her the order, but he still insisted she bring it back. She asked if it had to do with her race, and that's when he tried to ban her from doing deliveries there. As if he has any control over that. When I called the restaurant to ask if my order was supposed to be made with marinara, I ended up speaking with that same manager. He told me it was optional, I told him I wasn't given that option. He had no resolution for that. When I asked him why he accused my driver of stealing, he said she called him a racist. I told him, it was because he accused her of stealing for no logical reason. He told me to have a great day. So, cool. Food is trash. Customer service is trash. Treatment of delivery drivers is trash. Who's keeping this place in business?

    Shrimp Scampi rice with mixed vegetables

    The food was amazing very tasty. The service was great. The host was inviting, seating us quickly. The waitress was nice and polite. We will definitely come back when we visit our family again.

    I don't know what well known business serves burnt stuffed shrimp, watery mashed potatoes and over cooked veggies. $28 is too much for a failed dinner. Lately and too often Palace has been fucking up peoples orders. They don't even deserve a star in my opinion.

    Overall, I was quite disappointed with my experience here and I did not even have the worst experience among the people in my party. I'd like to preface by saying that my server was a super kind and pleasant person who definitely made this lackluster experience better. It started from the very beginning- we had to ask three times just to get water because the busboy was not bringing them over for some reason. My food was average at best. I got the Yankee pot roast, which was extremely average. The potato pancakes were bland and had no taste; the meat, beets, and vegetables were just okay. However, I had a friend who ordered a grilled cheese that not only did not have melted cheese in the sandwich, but also hair in his sandwich. That is gross and makes me question what other health violations are going on back in the kitchen. Do better.

    Located conveniently off of route 9 near Marist, College, the Palace Diner is a local staple. Their menu has a lot to offer including specialty coffees and cocktail options. Service was fast, efficient and friendly. We had the pancake combo and the Red Fox (nod to Marist) wrap. The diner has a classic feel. The booths are my favorite, suited with your own juke box.

    Chocolate milkshake to go!

    Had this bookmarked for our trip because of all of the rave reviews. We stopped in for dinner…read moreSaturday March 21 and there was barely anyone requiring service. After we walked in one of the waitresses informed us that we can sit wherever we want. I instantly felt like I was inconveniencing her with my presence by the way she said it. Didn't take it personal just yet. What appeared to be the hostess came over a few minutes after we sat down and handed us menus that were very dirty. I looked at my husband and said I am ready to walk out of this place bc I am starving and it looks like they are too short staffed right now which is understandably out of a businesses control sometimes. But wait, instead of the waitress coming to our table to bring water or ask us if we would like a drink, she went to another table with a man and a child that she obviously knew well, and started eating their french fries and talking. That's when we decided to leave and spend our money elsewhere. So unprofessional. That couldn't wait? I hate to leave a review like this, but if I was the owner of this business, I would not want someone like that working for me, representing what seems to be a great place.

    We love it here. I have to say the bike ride over the Hudson and landing here is half the appeal…read more The food offerings are pretty good and come in great big portions. They have a short tap list on a chalk board over the bar area but a massive bottle and can list. Truly a beer enthusiast paradise. Prices vary but pretty much run $6-$9 per beer. Outdoor, Indoor and bar seating available, and the option to seat yourself. The vibes are perfectly set, cozy interior and chilled out tunes. Servers are fast and always kind. Definitely my new go to. Signed, The Happy Hour Huntress

My steak was a little undercooked, but otherwise everything was excellent and we had a wonderful evening. One odd footnote: I ordered a bourbon with a large ice cube and discovered a $3 upcharge on the bill. I've been ordering bourbon and scotch at bars around the world for decades and can't recall encountering that before. I wasn't bothered by the $3 nearly as much as the surprise charge with zero disclosure. Nothing on the cocktail menu. Nothing from the waiter. No indication whatsoever that asking for a large rock carried an additional charge. Charge whatever you want, but tell the customer before adding it to the bill. When I mentioned it, they graciously removed the charge, and I had a very pleasant conversation with a manager who understood the point and agreed it should be disclosed going forward. That's exactly how good hospitality should work. Excellent restaurant, excellent experience, and absolutely somewhere I'd return.
