      This is a favorite spot when we want to dine outside. The upstairs seating area is great. Between all of the dishes we've had I think the only one we weren't happy with was the fish sandwich. We haven't had the crab cake sandwich at a waiter's recommendation, which we appreciate staff that steer you toward a good meal. The cocktails it depends on what you like - ask the staff, they're honest and helpful. The downstairs bar always seems lively- different vibe but everyone always looks like they're having a blast.

      Visited the restaurant on a Sunday around 4pm. I ordered a Cosmopolitan that wasn't drinkable to me. My first tip off that it wasn't made correctly was that it was bright, bright red in color where a properly made Cosmopolitan is a light pink. I tasted it and it tasted like the most off cranberry juice with vodka. I passed it off to another member of my party who was able to drink it despite it not tasting great. I decided to order a cocktail listed on their menu figuring they must be able to made it well. I watched the bartender fumble behind the bar making this lemon drop martini. When he served it to me it was spilling over the sides off the glass dripping down the sides. He also plunked I. Two giant lemon wedges on would use in a glass of iced tea so I had lemon pits floating in my martini. He also stuck in a straw (ummm weird). The martini was also served at room temperature. It tasted like watery lemonade. Anyway, I decided to cut my losses and drink it after fishing out the giant lemons, the straw and the lemon puts out of my drink.
      My party ordered dinner. The bar tender (we had to walk over and order from the bartender because a server never tended was not familiar with the item I ordered-- the BBq chicken sandwich and said they don't make one. I had to pull up the menu u and show it to him. The others in my party ordered a fish sandwich and kids macaroni and cheese.
      When the food came, they brought the chicken sandwich and the kids Mac n cheese by the fish sandwich didn't not come out for another 15 minutes. The chicken sandwich was ok. The fries served on the side of all our meals all tasted like fishy seafood. I assume because the oil in the fryer must be old. The Mac n cheese went uneaten after one bite as it tasted "off".
      Not a great meal at all but we were hungry.
      Maybe it was an off day.. maybe not. My first time here but I don't think I'll be back.

      It was good to be hanging out by the water at the Electric Palm. The place was hopping for the Battle of the Bands finals. Even with the big crowd the service was fast and efficient. Cool beers and Electric Palm Rum Punch made the afternoon fun. They have a nice menu and everything we ordered was delicious; nachos, southwest egg rolls, BLT, shrimp ceviche and tater tots. They have entertainment many nights & happy hour T-TH. If you are in the area check out the Electric Palm.

      I was there on a Saturday night when it was very crowded. I ordered a drink, dinner and dessert and all three items came out very quick. Burger was cooked the way I wanted it. Dessert was out within 5 minutes. The prices are a little high but I think all restaurants have jacked up prices in recent years. The waitress came by at least 10 times to check on my friends and I.

      I think the only issue is some tables were booked in advanced but one wasn't told that any table not reversed was fair game (or my friends who got there before me didn't ask the host stand). I will say that making a reservation is a good idea for a Friday/Saturday night.

      Pricey and a little divey. The Rumrunner was good. The Mrs had a Blue Moon. My Ceasars salad was OK, topped with salmon that more than doubled the price, but ok. Wifey had wings with teriyaki sauce, again no issues.
      Lot of stairs to get to restaurant and comedy show...beware!
      Service is very casual...not for the uptight patron. Relax!
      I'll update after the show

      This is a great place to see bands downstairs in the tiki bar. Unfortunately, the reassurance manager upstairs is an absolute sheister with no morals or ethics. Their menu clearly had a price stated for a meal and they charged me more and refused to honor the price on their menu. we were an older group and we're offered the written for their incompetence or lack of attention to detail in maintaining their menus. I might have ordered something different had the price been posted correctly. I hope the owner of the establishment sees this and fires the manager on duty Friday October 6, 2023

      I love this place. I hosted my promotion ceremony and my retirement ceremony here. Location is fabulous (on the water), Cody and his staff took such good care of us and all my guests. The bartenders were wonderful and the food was delicious. Cannot say enough good things about this crew. My family and friends have been meeting here for years. Sometimes service is a little slow when they're really busy, and occasionally they have wait staff that aren't having a 100% day, but they have all been kind and responsive for mistakes that may have been made.

      We have eaten at the Electric Palm many times in the last couple years. The service and food has always been great. But, even better we decided to have a private party there to celebrate our anniversary and it was exceptional. Cody did a great job working with us to ensure that we had enough food for our guests and the bartenders were exceptional, especially Greg. Everyone said that it was the best party and so we highly recommend this venue for both private parties or meals.
