About This Place

Nestled in the heart of Ann Arbor, Palm Palace offers a vibrant and authentic taste of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine that delights every sense. Specializing as a Mediterranean, Lebanese, and gluten-free friendly restaurant, Palm Palace welcomes a diverse crowd with a menu that balances rich, bold flavors alongside fresh and wholesome ingredients.

Stepping inside, you are immediately embraced by a warm and inviting atmosphere where friendly service complements the culinary experience. The staff, especially servers like Hoda, elevate the visit by patiently guiding diners through the menu with genuine enthusiasm and care—a detail that customers consistently praise. This attentive hospitality makes Palm Palace more than just a meal; it becomes a memorable dining experience infused with heart.

The menu is a treasure trove of Mediterranean delights. Signature dishes like the Garlic & Almond Rice Steak Ghallaba and the Moroccan Chicken showcase a masterful blend of spices and tender, slow-cooked perfection. Seafood lovers will savor the Grilled Jumbo Shrimp—marinated in fragrant herbs and garlic then expertly grilled to a smoky char—and the vibrant Shrimp Ghallaba, a stir fry bursting with fresh vegetables and just the right kick of seasoning.

Vegetarians and gluten-free guests alike will find plenty to celebrate here. From the rich, creamy hummus and smoky baba ganoush to the refreshing Chicken Fattoush Signature Salad and the classic Tabulee, each bite offers a complex layering of textures and flavors. The freshly baked pita bread, described by many as “mind blowing,” is the perfect vessel for scooping up these luscious dips and salads.

For those who wish to share, the Shish Combo for Two or Vegetarian Combo for Two provide an exquisite tasting journey, bringing together skewers of perfectly grilled kabobs and an array of mezze favorites. Such dishes are not only deeply satisfying but also highlight Palm Palace’s mastery in balancing wholesome ingredients with expert preparation.

Refreshing house-made beverages, including the invigorating Mint Lemonade and nutrient-packed Power Mix Juices, perfectly complement the vibrant flavors and leave diners feeling uplifted and satisfied rather than weighed down. Ending the meal on a sweet note, the Baklava offers a delicate crunch layered with honeyed nuts, rounding out a thoughtfully composed menu.

Guest testimonials repeatedly emphasize not just the exquisite food but the overall experience—the genuine hospitality, the inviting ambiance, and the team's dedication to making every visit exceptional. Whether you’re a devoted fan of Middle Eastern fare or exploring it for the first time, Palm Palace creates an atmosphere where every dish feels like a celebration of tradition, freshness, and culinary passion.

    Really great food, everything was so fresh and well flavored. We tried the vegetarian plate for 2. Gave us a flavor of all the delicacies from Hummus, Baba Ganoush, Tabouleh, Falafel, salad, soup and many more. The fresh baked pita was mind blowing. Enjoyed every morsel. To touch it up all our smiling wonderful server Hoda made us feel so comfortable explaining every dish and fulfilling all our request. The smiling little host made us feel welcome and the yummy food and server made our evening memorable. Great going guys

    Amazing food. We ordered several different plates with shawarma, shish, and more, and all of it was fantastic. Easily the best harisa I've tried, and while I don't always like baba ganoush, theirs had a terrific smokey flavor. I hope we can return on a future trip.

    Delicious food, excellent service, and really nice ambiance. Hoda, our server, took amazing care of us and went above and beyond. We left so full and still had leftovers. The food was really well-balanced; filling, but fresh, so you feel good walking out. I can’t say enough good things about the mint lemonade & power mix juices (I got some to-go). The shish combo for two was great for two people, and all the meats were exceptionally yummy. I enjoyed that each meat had its own flavor profile so that you could bounce around and try new combos. And the hummus was as good as advertised! Will be back for sure

    Hoda did an excellent job helping us in what we wanted to order.She was very knowledgeable about the menu. We appreciated her. Everything was delicious. The bread fresh out of the oven and the heavenly hummus was so good. Wish I would have taken more photos of the salad and my Tawook meal. It was so good we dug right in.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Palm Palace is a hidden gem of hospitality! We came in just expecting a good meal, but we walked out with an experience. Hoda, our server, turned dinner into something special. She patiently walked us through the menu, made thoughtful recommendations, and made us feel genuinely welcomed—as if we were guests, not just customers. Delicious food. Beautiful atmosphere. And service with heart. Thank you, Palm Palace—and especially Hoda—for making our evening memorable. We’ll definitely be back!
