Food was bland. However the main issue was servers were rude and unprofessional.After the desert, we were thinking to get few more drinks, but they directly brought the bill without us even asking for it. it seemed they were in a rush to get us out from there. There was not even any crowd there.I won't be recommending this place to anyone, not even my foes..

Was my hubby/daughters first visit, I had been there for lunch before. There was no issue getting a table on Friday evening, which we were thankful for.I ordered the smoked salmon salad, hubby had the striploin steak, and little one had two choices (kids plates are not listed on the menu - ask your server), pizza, or chicken Alfredo. She ordered the latter, and I was excited as she doesn't often eat chicken. However, there was no chicken to be found in her dish.My salad was delicious, and the portion size was great. Hubby said his steak was ok, too. Wasn't too long of a wait either.Bathrooms downstairs left much to be desired.

We had a celebratory wedding dinner last night for our son. Everything was absolutely delicious from the appetizers to main courses. This was our first visit but is the brides favorite place to eat. Thank you for a perfect ending to a wonderful day!

Disappointed with food, service and atmosphere. Food was average at best. Lamb curry had not much spice/flavour. Wife ordered salmon medium and got very overcooked piece of fish. Sent back and was replaced with basically sashimi. Cold salmon, uncooked. The cheesecake dessert is not cheesecake whatsoever. It’s condensed milk with a ?lemon taste? More like a fridge lemon meringue type of deal. Sticky toffee pudding is very dry. Waiter was average at best. The amount of smoke from the kitchen cannot be legal. The air was filled with smoke. Newly moved to Fredericton. Will not be going back. How is this place so highly rated?

I'll be going back to Mama's Pub before returning to The Palate again.Food was underwhelming and too small a portion for the price at lunch. Server was OK, but seemed distracted by the other servers not serving. Was disappointed given this place was so highly recommended a few years ago.

Had the brisket too small portions. House Salad was 2 cucumber slices some shredded carrots and too much arugula and I love Arugula. House salad dressing was lovely what little we were offered. Not worth 17 dollars. Stout was great. Staff was alright.

Intimate atmosphere, thoughtful menu and really friendly staff. This place came highly recommended as a place to eat when I was visiting the city for the first time and it was well worth it.

First time there in several years. Had the club sandwich with the soup of the day. It was delicious. Will try to go there more often. My friend also enjoyed their meals.

Had very limited options for dinner but the food was good along with friends staff and good
I usually dine in at the restaurant once in a while, and it always holds up to expectations. From great food, atmosphere and service, it is by far one of the best restaurant in Fredericton. With the changing menu, the dishes never fail. ?

The experience was good but the salmon salade was overpriced and it barely has salmon in it.The general portion of main dishes needs to be bigger to justify the price.

The palate was great! Tofu red curry stir fry with rice was flavourful, well portioned and presented beautifully! Server was a nice lad, kind, knowledgeable, and efficient! Would return again! Found the curtain at the entrance kinda fun (helps keep the cold out I presume)as you walk into the restaurant! Maybe add some lights to make it magical! ?Vegetarian options: Many choices to switch the meal into a vegetarian friendly one!Parking: Street parking! Free during the evening!

Updated: the food and service were wonderful. My friend and I tried, and recommend, pork belly and the bruschetta as starters. For mains the lamb curry and the duck and we were not disappointed.The tap selection and cocktail menu are excellent.
