Beautiful food, beautiful atmosphere, great service (that isn't too over the top that it makes you feel awkward). Would definitely return, when I've saved up enough money again :)

We hadn't been to Palate for a while so this visit was a good chance to sample the new menu and restaurant ambiance. We were not disappointed. The menu offered excellent choice and those flavours! Fantastic. The wait staff were knowledgeable and friendly without being obtrusive. Will visit again very soon.

This was a business lunch and I was slightly hesitant on returning after my last experience but should not have been as everyone was very impressed by the outstanding food and presentation along with great service. We had complimentary ciabatta bread with fresh butter and balsamic vinegar olive oil dip. They also gave one of our colleagues who has a dairy allergy a salmon with citrus dressing and orange segments which was a lovely touch. The starters were great, duck with scallops along with the goats cheese soufflés and oysters. Mains the fish of the day, venison and beef were awesome and the beetroot with the venison was delicious. Desserts; chocolate mousse, limoncello sorbet, caramel ice-cream was a great way to finish off the perfect lunch. I will not leave it so long before going back next time.
