Palo Dinner worth it? - 5 night Magic

We may have had bad luck with Palo. We did brunch on our first cruise. The service was pretty bad (worse than the MDR). They said they were closing the kitchen, so they rushed us to order something before we had time to even consider our options. The food from the buffet part was pretty good, but not really worth the upcharge. It might be because there is just so much darn food on board, but the food didn't really stand out to me. Disney seems to have a problem with the food being too bland, and that seemed to be true to in Palo. I would love to try it again to see if it is better the next time. I want to try Remy too.
My wife and I are serious foodies who are really in to fine dining. Remy is in our top five restaurants of all time. When we went to Palo on the Fantasy, it was fine. When we went to Palo on the Wonder, well, Tiana's Place was better by a mile.
 
My family of 6 did a 5 night cruise on the Magic and Palo dinner was definitely one of the highlights. It was the only part of the cruise that was at all romantic, and both the service and the food were impeccable.
 
Palo on the Magic is probably my favorite of all the ships. We always request Sylvester to be our server and he always takes great care of us. He has been on the Magic since its first sailing I believe.

Yes! Sylvester is awesome!! He was our server in the dining room rotations on our first Disney Cruise in 2012. On our second cruise in 2016 we requested him when we went to Palo. We love him!!
 

Palo is Wonderful! With that said we love brunch more than dinner!!!
Dinner was great for our 30th anniversary but generally do brunch.
