We got the meatball appetizers, a Caesar salad, and our own pasta dishes. The meatballs were good…read morebut did taste like they were pre-made frozen. The Caesar salad was disappointing. It was just iceberg lettuce with croutons and dressing in the side. The build your own pasta dishes were fantastic! The service was not great however, and this wasn't a unique experience as we've been here before and experienced poor service. Our waitress started out attentive but after our appetizers came, she didn't come back for about 15-20 mins to take our order. Our main dishes took about 30 minutes to come out. Once they did we never saw our waitress afterwards. We waited about 30-45 more mins and then we finally went to go find her to ask for to go boxes and the check. All in all we were there for about two hours, but not for good reason. I think this place has great potential, they just need to better train their staff to be more attentive.

Absolutely disgusted with my recent order from Palermo and then you have the audacity to not answer…read morethe phone. I order the same 2 items from Palermo, lasagna and a pizza either ricotta, fennel sausage and pepperoni. I should have known that my food would be subpar when they had to check if they were still taking to go orders at 5:00pm. My spouse picked up the order so had no idea of what to expect but when they got home not only was there no bag with bread and Parmesan cheese, I just knew it was a show. Why is there cheese wiz on top of the pizza, why is the food cold and where is the bread etc. Palermo, you should absolutely be ashamed of your restaurant. If you can't do it right because you're closing, say that. But don't sell BS on a platter for $50 and expect a customer to just take it. No I will not be returning, an absolute waste of a drive and money. Do better.

Everything about this place rocks. The food was delicious! We tried the goat cheese appetizer with sourdough. They mix it at the table which is cool because they explain what each of the ingredients is. I had a steak salad and my friend had the chopped chicken salad. Both amazing. But the winner is that whiskey cake. So luxurious. Not too sweet. With a huge heaping of real whipped cream. Easily can feel 3 or 4 people! Cocktails are refined and boozy!

Hmm. not too sure how to feel about it. I loved whiskey cake so much when I lived in Katy -- so…read moremuch so that I would take everyone who visited me there. but since moving to austin three years ago, I haven't had it + was excited to try this location. we went for brunch and the menu was pretty limited on options. it's almost as if you were forced to select a sandwich because the actual brunch meals made no sense/felt lazy. for example, the chicken and waffles were chicken *tenders*, not regular fried chicken.. that feels very lazy. I order the yard bird. it was an oven baked chicken with veggies. good, but not worth $22. I could've made it at home. everyone else at the table basically ordered pancakes with eggs or French toast because the menu was literally that limited, there was no "oo I want to try that!" moment. The service was great as we were a big party. The staff kept coming to our table to apologize on the long wait times; which was confusing because there was barely anyone in the restaurant... but the parking lot was full? where were all of those people? I don't know. the experience wasn't bad but, it didn't hold up to the standard of whiskey cake that I'm used to. especially for $66. the Katy location was so good, it even smelled like whiskey cake. and I remembered this restaurant brand having more culinary forward items like their blue cheese chips during happy hour. (which i lovedddd) If I'm ever out in Round Rock again, I may give it another try, but it won't be for brunch.

Like all good Texans we like steaks. So when we had a chance to try these authentic Wagyu Gold…read moreRib-Eyes we got a sous-vide cooker, got some good red wine and invited some friends over. The steaks are phenomenal. Over 1 inch thick, beautifully marbled. They are grass fed and organic. We cooked them sous vide and then finished on the charcoal grill. My god, they were delicious. Every guest loved the steaks and more than one said these were the best steaks they have had in a long time. Juicy, flavorful, and like all authentic Wagyu should, the fat melts quickly and provides incredible flavor. Then we learned Colinas sells all kind of Wagyu, Prime, and other steaks including seasoned and pre-cooked meat form their sister company Takavron, which is a food truck. They also sell chicken, fish, some produce, and essentials like tortillas! Plus. they are local. They will deliver for free any order over $75. If you like steak, you need to give these guys a try.
