Brilliantly colored heraldic banners flutter from the ceiling and metal horses gallop across the walls of this Financial District eatery that's a unique mix of Medieval Times kitsch and fine-dining establishment. At the bar near the front, cleancut businessmen sip classic martinis; across the hall, a wood-fired pizza oven churns out free pies for the hungry happy hour crowd that populates the restaurant every early evening. Lunch offers affordable antipasti and pasta dishes, while dinner is brings two-, three-, four- or five-course prix fixe menus, as well as the option of ordering a la carte.…

I love Palio for happy hour for the amazing pizzas to nosh on while meeting new friends at the bar. Great financial district crowd always. Last night I went for dinner and who knew that a place in the financial would be so great on a FRIDAY night? I guess I am the last to know that this is the spot to dine in SF. Service was amazing, our waiter not only answered a bunch of questions on the new seasonal menu but made great recommendations on wine pairing as well.
TRY IT! Great for business or fun...
- Pros: Service and FOOD!
- Cons: None, walk there and go out in Union Square after

Not good for DINE ABOUT TOWN
by emdevito
"last night my family and I went to Palio's for the first night of Dine about Town. First off, their dine about town menu offers three choices (Fish, Meat, and Vegetarian). Seeing as I'm not a huge fish fan and I don't eat pork,and because no substitutes where allowed I was left with the Vegetarian meal.Our first course was about average, my fig and cheese spread was ok, nothing outstanding, and the Meat appetizer looked like cold cuts at a Superbowl party. Our main dishes, which came late, where underwhelming to say the least. The Polenta was drenched in a mushroom gravy. The spaghetti was bland and worst off all was the fish..it was so salty it was hard to eat... I ended up spitting it out! My mom had to down two bottles of water during dinner just to get it down... The highlight however, was dessert each one of us had a fabulous concoction. Also the service was good, but not enough for me to go back...."

- Pros: Great food. Great selections. Romantic.
