About Palma
Palma is a brunch restaurant and lounge bar in Phoenix, at 903 N 2nd St. Much of its character comes from a broad menu that spans brunch and dinner, with a lounge setting that suits both daytime and evening meals. The Sweet Potato Yummy Fries are a popular dish, and the Chili Garlic Noodles are another popular item on the menu. Mains cover a range of options, and the Chai-Chocolate Martini appears among the drink offerings. Reservations are advised during busier brunch and evening hours, when the lounge bar draws a steady flow of guests.

Customer Review Summary
Diners consistently single out the sushi for its freshness and flavor, calling it some of the best in Phoenix. Close behind, reviewers praise a spread of distinct dishes and drinks: vegan maki, 5 spice beignets, a spicy burger with melted queso, Thai fries with dipping sauce, and a mimosa set featuring prickly pear and peach juices. The atmosphere draws frequent mention for its relaxed, elevated vibe and unique touches like pinball machines and mini-bowling lanes. A recurring caveat centers on price, with several noting the cost-to-portion ratio feels off, particularly for the big appetizer platter. A few also flag difficulty finding parking, especially after 5pm. One reviewer notes the lunch menu and sushi do not start until 2pm, and another mentions patio sprinklers being off on a hot day. Several suggest timing a visit for happy hour, when margaritas and discounted drinks make the value feel stronger.

“I went here for brunch and the food was great. Our server Heidi M was friendly and very attentive. I hear the sushi is amazing but, didn’t get a chance to try it since they start the lunch menu @ 2 pm. The Outdoor sitting was amazing however, in May at noon it got kind of hot and the sprinkler system was off. Other than this everything was great.”
