Orchids at Palm Court Cincinnati Reviews from The Last Year
If you love old American architecture, this is the place
If you love old American architecture, this is the place for you. The setting is amazing and takes you back to a different era in American history. The only issue is that the restaurant is poorly run. They sit about 5 tables at a time which causes a whole backlog and long wait times. I don't really understand the system. We waited about an hour only to sit in a very small section that was about 50% full. There are other places for good food, which is unfortunate because the actual location is beautiful.
Just had dinner at Orchids with my parents last night, and
Just had dinner at Orchids with my parents last night, and while the overall atmosphere was stellar, there were small things that somewhat detracted from the eating experience. First, kudos to the manager who came to our table to let us know the soup we ordered "didn't turn out the way it should be served," and prompted us to switch our soup. We instead ordered the French onion soup, and my mother raved about it all night. There were a few missteps (as far as my elderly parents were concerned): 1.) my mother's water glass was never refilled 2.) my father was disappointed to know that "such a swanky place" was serving beer in bottle at the table and couldn't offer guests a chilled mug 3.) my father was disappointed that "such a swanky place" used commercial bacon bits in their salad rather than fresh. He felt that the cache of the dish was lessened by the taste of "what is clearly Bacon Bit" 4.) all of our food arrived at once (well, everything came within 2-3 minutes). As everyone knows this creates a mass of plates on the table, lots of jockeying for position, and guests who are now toggling back and forth between everything as opposed to being able to savor their meal. I understand bringing everything at once means the server has to come to your table less often, but if you order an appetizer, starter, then main, it should come out coursed. 5.) bringing all the food at once meant attention to detail was lost. My father was very disappointed that his pork chop was not served with a cutting knife. We couldn't get the attention of our server, and in a place like this you shouldn't have to get up and go search for your server, so I was reduced to using a butter knife (retrieved from my father's salad plate) to cut his pork chop. (And yes, I cut my father's pork chop up. He's 80, precious to me, and everyone should be so lucky to serve their elderly parents.) 6.) the coffee isn't hot. I ordered a drink at the bar earlier in the evening, and the coffee was lukewarm at best. I asked the bartender for a fresh, HOT cup...and he came back a few minutes later with another lukewarm cup of coffee. I don't drink coffee, but my father does and he likes it hot. I don't think anyone likes lukewarm coffee, and even after a few tries I still couldn't get hot coffee. I delivered it to my father, knowing what was coming, and the second he touched the cup it was like that scene out of The Color Purple where Mister touches the glass of lemonade Celie brings him and without even looking at her, dismisses the offered drink with the words, "not cold enough." Except in this case daddy said, "that's not hot, baby." I've been bringing this man coffee for decades, and to serve him lukewarm coffee was really hard for me, but apparently that's all they make at Orchids at palm. All in all, this was and is a good dining experience. There's live music (jazz, NOT blues), everything is a delight to look at, and the food is delicious. There are just a few little tweaks that could elevate this dining experience to make it match the environment and price tag. I'm heading there for the Mother's Day brunch tomorrow, so I'm hoping to have a stellar experience that entourages me to offer up another, hopefully 5-star review.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Appointment
I was waiting on the transfer for name but it hasn’t happened yet and my reservation is tonight , will it be an issue that is hasn’t changed into my name yet
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Just got scammed!
Thats unfortunate but you can always get your money back if they cancel the reservation.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
