Burgers tasted like they had been sitting out. Cheese was cold and had hardened a bit. Pork belly was good, bao bun ok. Drink took 10 minutes to come out and ice melted so the Olf Fashioned was watered down in first sip.

Our server Stacy was great, but we were seated behind the pizza oven which was uncomfortably hot at the table (felt like no AC was on). The food was good even though they were out of some things, but we couldn't get any of the staff to help clear plates from the table as we continued eating. Overall decent experience though.

Very good brunch at Palette 22. Last brunch here was about a year ago and we enjoyed the food more at that point. They changed it to give full portions of their food this time which seemed to work better and the food came out faster. Overall very good brunch in Shirlington!

the menu here looks great. lots of variety. lots of options for vegetarians. the problem is that much of the food is just so-so. there are some standouts to be found (Korean sweet corn, for example), but too many of the dishes we sampled left us underwhelmed (and some were just flat-out bad, unfortunately). It's a lovely enough place and certainly not a "stay away" review here... but they'd probably have more success if they pared down the menu considerably and focused on making fewer, excellent dishes.

I love Palette 22. It’s one of my favorite restaurants in the area because the ambiance, the choices and the service. Last night some friends and I went for dinner. We sat outside and our server, Diego, was very attentive, gave great recommendations and made our evening very enjoyable. Everyone at the table got the sesame steak skewers and they were cooked perfectly! As always, this restaurant doesn’t disappoint. Afterward, a friend and I stayed and sat at the bar. Again, the bartender was attentive and gave recommendations for wine. Overall just a really great experience.

Great environment and food—wonderful small plates when ordering the unlimited menu! If you are thinking about bringing family and friends from out of town with a diverse palate of appetite(s), don’t think, just come here! Great experience! My only concern was the server, who reminded us of the price when asked for refills on speciality drinks—unnecessarily! After experiencing this micro-aggression because we were black and casually dressed, our table corrected her and she co-regulated afterward!

This was my first visit to this restaurant and I am definitely coming back! The value for the unlimited plan at $34.99 was exceptional for the amount and quality of the food received. Our server, Emma, was excellent, attentive, and friendly. And my friend could bring her dog. The patio was great and not too loud. Great job Palette!
