We had brunch on Sunday morning and they had a three piece jazz band that played. The band was nice to have while enjoying the food. The turtle soup is fabulous. We look forward to dining at the Palace Cafe when we are in town.

Amazing experience and delicious food! Everything looked delicious on the menu, but I settled for the filet mignon. I was not disappointed. We had the bottomless mimosas. The wait staff was very attentive and the jazz band played a personal selection at our table. Highly recommended!
