A few of our favorite menu items at The Palms Garden & Good Vibes Bar include the following:
Chicken & Waffles
A great option for a satisfyingly southern breakfast, this favorite features fluffy Belgian waffles topped with home-style fried chicken. Homemade honey butter makes this feel extra indulgent, as will a sweet drizzle of maple syrup.
3 Egg Omelette
Ham, Denver, or veggie…no matter which style you prefer for your omelet, you will be satisfied by this hearty breakfast entree. It always includes a five-cheese blend, and, if you choose the Denver or veggie version, you’ll also get red pepper and onion. Up the ante with home fries, which are served on the side. Better yet, watch in awe as it’s made at the live station, which is available on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings.
Groovy Hawaiian
As one of the more intriguing menu options at The Palms Garden & Good Vibes Bar, this black Angus burger is cooked to your preferred temperature and then topped with provolone, lettuce, and tomato. The Hawaiian label comes from its unique extras: grilled pineapple and eel sauce. All this is served in a delicious keiser roll, with fries and a pickle spear available on the side.
Street Nachos
Perfect for sharing, these sizable street nachos can also be enjoyed on your own when you’re feeling extra hungry. Either way, the fun begins with fresh tortilla chips, which can be topped with your choice of carnitas or birria — or, for an extra fee, you can add both. Other standard toppings include black beans and queso, with guacamole available for a small additional charge. Salsa and sour cream are served on the side. Try the spicy habanero if you’re feeling adventurous. Otherwise, the salsa verde is always a safe option.
Dairy-Free Pizza
There are just a handful of selections that accommodate dietary restrictions, but this is arguably the best from both a health and taste perspective. Served on a cauliflower crust, it includes delicious dairy-free cheese.
