A reservation is recommended. Both indoor and outdoor dinning available. Service was fast and attentive. Our waiter had excellent recommendations when asked. The food was good, the cocktails were perfect, and the dessert was incredible! Some favorites were the fried artichoke hearts, the crispy brussel sprouts, the house salad which had delicious goat cheese, and the vanilla custard with chocolate and caramel was to die for.
The food, the drinks and ambiance are all wonderful here. They also have a great happy hour
Too expensive for how mediocre the food was coming out, neither of us liked our app or entres and didn't care to finish even still being hungry. Everything that came out needed more flavor, I'd recommend a sauce but it was all soggy? The cocktails and dessert are worth returning for. Also just a strange experience with the server for the table next to ours being loud and way too chatty, had trouble hearing each other at times. Guy just wouldn't walk away.
You will not find better customer service. Wonderful, local spot with amazing food and spirits. Indoor and outdoor ambience are both wonderful. And the bartenders are masters as making an old fashioned.
Excellent service and visually enticing meal. I went solo as a self needed treat. Enjoyed the capri dining within a secluded spot. I was a little thrown off with by the QR menu only but thats ok. Saves trees. ??☮️. The Poke was so pretty. Like a flower. ???. I got my hair done by Andrea Moreno at Salon G at the Palladio. It made me happy so I celebrated with a fantastic lunch. It was my first time there. My favorite local singer Hans Eberbach mentioned he was there a few days before singing. I missed him but thought I gotta try out the Palladio Back Bistro. I use to go to the first location in Folsom on Blue Ravine years ago. Even better now at Palladio. ????
Decor and Style: trendy and modern with tables inside and outside on their huge patio. I don't think they had booths. I wore a sundress and my husband wore a button up shirt and nice shorts. Some customers wore workout yoga gear, but it was only 3:30 when we were there. Service level: casual and mildly attentive. They take reservations. Parking: Close to a parking garage with a short walk required. They are located outside of the Cinema so it's good if you want dinner and a movie. Food: "Californian" but not all light and healthy options. Dinner menu starts at 3 and they offer happy hour every day, and not just at the bar. Pros: -The food was amazing -The patio is huge and dog friendly -Lots of heaters for cooler weather and shade trees for warmer weather. Part of the patio is covered and my guess is that's because there aren't any trees in that part of the giant patio. The patio faces west so it's good they have shade. Cons: -their website (QR code menu) was down and they didn't have hard copies of their menu so it took about 15 minutes to get situated so we could order. Thankfully Yelp came to the rescue because we got to peruse the menu that way. I'm not knocking the restaurant for the website being down, that's the web host company's fault. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the shrimp and polenta. It was rich and decadent. The best way to describe it is like the broth you get with a muscles appetizer but with shrimp, mixed with polenta. So the consistency is stew like. My husband doesn't like seafood but loved this dish too. He had the New York steak which was prepared perfectly. The crispy Brussel sprouts were perfectly prepared and not at all bitter. The steak was topped with compound butter that had a little spice to it. My husband said it was far better than the steak he had at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. In summary this place is a winner. We will definitely be returning. Our meal was $113 plus tip for two entrees and two cocktails, one Pilsner and one Chardonnay. They offer epay through a QR code on the receipt that allowed me to use Apple Pay. Super easy and fast!!!
Made online reservations about 30 minutes before leaving the hotel. On arrival they had my reservations and seated us within five minutes of arrival although it was moderately crowded. No menus. You scan the q code with your phone. The waiter came to our table less than five minutes after and took our drink orders. I ordered a coconut in a pine cocktail. Not too strong but also not too large of a drink but was very happy with it. I ordered the Shrimp and Polenta. This was very very good but you have better like your meal just sopping with butter! Large size shrimp. Slivers of sausage and few slices of cooked tomatoes. My daughter ordered the Chicken Parmigiana. The battered chicken breast was slightly burnt on one edge but she said it was all in all good and she would order it again. The desserts were excellent. She ordered the crème brûlée and I ordered the tres pot de Crème. The latter was essentially crème brûlée with a chocolate ganache poured over it and salted caramelized sauce. Very decadent and delicious. The chef made cute whip cream flowers on the side. A bit of an artiste! A very enjoyable evening with excellent food and good service. Would definitely return and recommend.
Enjoyed their Bourbon Bar seating area while sipping Weller 12 year wheated bourbon. You have to have thier pork belly appetizer. A great night.
Back Bistro is a staple for us. Great outdoor seating, great wine (of course), even better whiskey drinks. The Cobb salad is delicious as is the burger (didn’t expect that).Perfect place to grab a bite or drink before a movie or hang out and enjoy the ambience.Oh yeah - and all of the desserts are epic!
Came here for brunch/lunch not knowing what to expect. First surprise was to see a really nice bar with a whiskey menu, which is extensive, diverse and fairly accesible. The food was tasty and of good portion. We sat in the patio area. They had tons of heaters and were nice to turn them on for us. Service was great and it seemed all patrons were having the same quality of service. Inside of the place is nicely decorated. Overall, well deserving of a visit.
