"Celebrating our 6th Anniversary dinner the Palm in Tyson’s Corner on 12 June 21 and dinner was good. They wishes us a Happy anniversary when we arrived but another restaurant with the initials of RC has better presentation and well wishes. Due to the Commonwealth (finally) opening to full capacity recently, it was nice to see that the restaurant was busy though the appetizers were limited and there were not any soups offered. I requested a well manner, extra dirty martini, straight up with Tito’s and you can see the martini was not “dirty enough from the “lack of” brine and there was not any blue stuffed olives in the drink. That is the best part! The steak tartare that I ordered needed some salt…maybe some French Maldon sea salt to elevate it a tad. The three cheese potatoes au gratin were decadent. We also picked out a bottle of white French wine to accompany dinner but our server came back to unfortunately inform us that they were out fo stock so we settled for a Spanish white wine instead. Not pictured is the salad my husband had for an appetizer, the leaf spinach side that was aglio e olio, his portion of the 3lb lobster (that we shared) and his slice of cheesecake. One of the servers was kind enough to break the claws for us, thus the lobster photo is not the best photo. We previously had been frequent diners at the Palm over the years and I am blaming Covid for the Palm not being as top notch as it used to be since the staff was stretched thin and the overall atmosphere was loud due to the high ceiling in the dining room. We will try it again once normalcy returns to the area. Thank you."
