Such a great night and incredible band we love the Palapa place. Very cute and nice set up. Also, the staff was very professional and kind. We already bought our tickets for the next show.!
Incredible New Orleans jazz! I loved how Heather played the xylophone, and Suzy Park's voice was amazing. The best jazz band I've ever heard; all the musicians were phenomenal. We loved the atmosphere at Palapa, the decor, everything was wonderful.
