    Special birthday menu, table settings
    Crystal C.

    Came here for my hubby's birthday and had such a special experience! They had a menu printed out with my husband's name on it, a specially decorated table, and a free birthday dessert all decked out. Short rib pot roast was AMAZING- melt in your mouth. Hubby had the shrimp carbonara and really enjoyed it. For drinks I tried their Palma G+T which uses a mediterranean tonic. It's a nice (and pretty) change from the normal gin and tonic. Desserts were Coconut cream pie (SUPER YUMMY) and a Cherry Cobbler. I will also note that their fresh made whipped cream that was on the desserts and as a garnishment was heavenly- I could have had a whole plate of just that. Finished the night off with a little nip of Amaretto we were gifted. Our server and other staff came by regularly to check on us, chat, and wish hubby a Happy Birthday. We came away with full bellies and felt so cared for. This was an experience we want to come back and repeat in the future and the best dining experience we've had in Queen Creek. Thank you Palma!

    What an amazing experience dining at Palma kitchen! Brunch, lunch and dinner are all fabulous and the food is out of this world. Gorgeous views of the golf course and wedding venue, the outdoor patio is the perfect place for any event or meal! The service is great and everyone makes you feel welcome and at home. We love their cocktails,, entrees, apps and brunch omelette bar. We will absolutely be back again!

    Short ribs
    Grethel D.

    Super tasty short ribs. Always great. Tawny and Brandi and the best. Recently got the Brussel sprouts with a side of blackened chicken and it was delicious.

    Amazing views from the patio

    Went here for our anniversary. It's a little oasis tucked away. Ashley was the best server.

    Palma Kitchen and Tap Dress Code
    Gregory B.

    Restaurant is located inside Encaterra Country Club but open to public. Beautiful space as you would expect at a Country Club. Pretty bougie crowd, not a lot of diversity down here!!!! Note picture of dress code card you are handed when you drive through club gate. My lunch partner was asked at door to put on a provided button up shirt, presumably because it didn't meet the dress code. There were many ladies coming in off the golf course with sleeveless shirts on exactly like my lunch partner, so I think it was her Harley tattoos that offended, not her shirt. Beware. Food was really good!!! I had the Cobb Salad with an added piece of salmon that was grilled perfectly. Traditional Cobb with all the fixings. They were out of their French Dip sandwich, ran out of iced tea half way through our meal, and forgot our coffee with this wonderful little flourless chocolate tart. First two issues are mgmt's problem, so won't ding or server. Other than forgetting our coffee's, rest of service was very well done. Loved the food, just wish the dress code thingy wasn't so arbitrary, but they were nice about it ... and it is a semi-private club so they get to do what they want. $30-50 per person with appetizers, entree, and dessert. Parking free in the club lot

    My Fiancee and I came here for her best friend's Daughter's Graduation lunch from ASU. It was our first time here and we didn't know what to expect. The food and customer service was on point. From the moment we drove up to the gate, the gentleman at the gate was personable and funny. We had a great quick chat with him. The drive to the kitchen from there was beautiful. The restaurant was very nice, food was on point, and the waitress was wonderful. The price for two of us, two drinks, shared a salad, and two entrees came out to about $60.00. Not bad at all. You have to visit here at least once.

    Poke bowl
    Schiobhan R.

    Back again! Came here for a date night. I wanted to sit at the bar and have some drinks and talk with people and the bartenders before our reservation. But new policy, only members can sit at the bar. A little disappointed but went outside and sat. Ordered meatballs for an app. They were delish. There was a poke bowl special I ordered that was the best thing I've eaten in my entire life. Husband ordered the short rib pot roast. And of course none other than the butter cake for dessert. I could eat here everyday! So good.

    Kale and quinoa salad
    Isabelle T.

    This place was okay. My parents booked a reservation for 4 for my father's birthday. He's a big fan of this place but it was my first time. I looked at the menu online and didn't see the vegan options, mostly vegetarian. My mother said she called and they confirmed they have vegan options though? The meatless options all seemed to have cheese. They had a burger with an option for an importable patty but it also had cheese, bacon and non vegan bread. I guess I'm not certain what they are saying is vegan? I ended up ordering a kale and quinoa salad, no feta. It was mostly kale, 5 ish cherry tomatoes, a few sliced peppers, and maybe a spoonful of quinoa. It was drenched in the dressing that I asked for on the side. It tasted fine but nothing to write home about. I had ordered sweet potatoes fries that were forgotten and they came out when we were almost done, and were a bit cold. We were seated at 530 and our food came out at 7. It was just way too long. I think because this place is in a retirement community they must have thought we wanted slow service. It was just okay. The place was pretty and they had space heaters.

    Happy hour starts at 3!
    Emily P.

    New to the area so checked out the club to see what they had. There was no wait because we had a very late lunch at 3 but it worked out perfectly that it was happy hour. We got a well mojito and mules which were supposed to be $5.50 at happy hour but we were charged full price. The Cesar salad was drenched in dressing, so be sure to ask for the dressing on the side. The croutons were very salty so you may need to pick a few out. The margherita had a great thin crust and was alright, but could've used more mozzarella. Our server checked in with us every so often but our finished plates and cups were stacking up throughout our meal. However, the drive into the area is quite beautiful and was probably the part of our visit.

I had to ask for marinara sauce and parmesean cheese which was also poor quality. Someone ordered steak, tough, dry and tasteless. the roll that was served was hard as a rock and also tasteless. The food all looked microwaved, all of it was tasteless and the service was very slow. So, another failure food experience in Arizona. Arizona need some real restaurants, nothing but crappy chain joints. This place is overrated.

The atmosphere is upbeat, bright, and welcoming with a really good energy whether you're stopping in for lunch, dinner, or meeting up with a larger group. The setup works especially well for groups since there's plenty of seating and the ordering process keeps things moving even when it's busy. One thing they do very well is efficiency without losing hospitality. They have both a dine-in ordering counter and a dedicated to-go counter, which seems necessary because this place stays packed. Even during busy times, the staff stays friendly, attentive, and organized. You can tell there's real attention paid to each order and that management understands how to run a smooth restaurant operation. The menu has a lot of solid choices whether you want something lighter, comforting, vegetarian, or protein-packed. Portions were satisfying, and the broccoli deserves its own mention -- somehow simple but absolutely addictive. My only real note is that pricing feels a little high for an order-at-the-counter style restaurant. That said, the quality, atmosphere, and overall experience do make it easier to justify once in a while.

I know my opinion is probably unpopular because it seems like everybody loves Flower Child, but it's not really my cup of tea. I fully understand, though, that that's just me. I do have some weird food issues. I will say this place is so bright and airy and just lovely. I love the paned windows that look out onto the patio, the very high ceilings, and the brown rattan lighting fixtures. Even though the space is quite large, it's extremely inviting. That said, it's a great place for something healthy. I feel like you can't go wrong with any of the choices if you're trying to eat well. My friends lunch looked much better than what I had. I had the Flying Avocado Wrap, and I didn't love it. In fact I didn't finish even half of it - - I took it home and my son ate it. I think it's the bread I don't like, and anyone who knows me knows I can be really picky. Will I come back? Probably. When I have lunch with somebody else who wants to come here, I won't have a problem with it. I would really like to try the forbidden Rice that my friend had. But I'm not likely to ever swing by here on my own.

I was excited to try the new Southwest Chicken Bacon Ranch Nachos. According to the menu, they should include grilled chicken, shredded cheese, Southwestern Queso, bacon, ranch, and pico. What I received was a plate of mostly dry chips topped with 90% bacon bits, a tiny portion of chicken, and a drizzle of ranch. There was no queso or shredded cheese in sight. When I pointed this out, Dwight claimed the queso was there but offered a side of it anyway. When the side arrived, it was a dark yellow cheese that clearly wasn't on the original plate--it was obvious he wasn't being truthful. After he caught an attitude, I sent the nachos back for the Chicken Bacon Ranch Quesadillas. I waited another 10-15 minutes for the new meal, and after it was delivered, Dwight never returned. He spent the rest of the shift walking the long way around the restaurant to avoid our table, even though we were right by the kitchen. I never got a refill or a check-in.
