Palace Prime specializes in Steak & Seafood in a space filled with a rich history. Over the course of almost 200 years, the Palace location has been home to one form of entertainment or another. Beginning in 1835, Maria Gertrudis “Tules” Barcelo – commonly known as Doña Tules – opened an opulently decorated casino and hotel spanning Burro Alley, between Palace Avenue and San Francisco Street. Tradesmen, miners, soldiers and travelers on the Old Santa Fe Trail frequented her luxurious establishment, gambling away their hard-earned gold, and enjoying the company of La Tules’ courtesans. At the onset of the Mexican-American War in 1846, La Tules was at the peak of her career as a madam and erstwhile dealer of Monte, a popular card game at the time, amassing a fortune substantial enough to offer loans to the American commanding officers to pay their troops (who eventually would lose the money back to her at the tables). She continued to rise in Santa Fe society as a person of status and wealth, eventually leaving a sizable fortune in cash and real estate holdings upon her death in 1852. Palace Prime still celebrates its rich history in this space that has has been gorgeously updated and renovated to accentuate the fine dining experience you will enjoy!

Palace Prime specializes in Steak & Seafood in a space filled with a rich history. Over the course of almost 200 years, the Palace location has been home to one form of entertainment or another. Beginning in 1835, Maria Gertrudis “Tules” Barcelo – commonly known as Doña Tules – opened an opulently decorated casino and hotel spanning Burro Alley, between Palace Avenue and San Francisco Street. Tradesmen, miners, soldiers and travelers on the Old Santa Fe Trail frequented her luxurious establishment, gambling away their hard-earned gold, and enjoying the company of La Tules’ courtesans. At the onset of the Mexican-American War in 1846, La Tules was at the peak of her career as a madam and erstwhile dealer of Monte, a popular card game at the time, amassing a fortune substantial enough to offer loans to the American commanding officers to pay their troops (who eventually would lose the money back to her at the tables). She continued to rise in Santa Fe society as a person of status and wealth, eventually leaving a sizable fortune in cash and real estate holdings upon her death in 1852. Palace Prime still celebrates its rich history in this space that has has been gorgeously updated and renovated to accentuate the fine dining experience you will enjoy!

Daniels says, “We are going to swing so hard; you might want to fasten your seatbelts!” The duo has recorded multiple albums together including “Duke at the Roadhouse”, which they recorded live while playing together at the famed Lensic Theater right here in Santa Fe, and won a Grammy for their album “Memos from Paradise”.

Daniels continues: “Rodger Kellaway is one of my favorite partners in Jazz. When we play together there is only one of us. Our minds come together and intuit what the other is going to do. It’s purely a Godly experience in a sense. When I breathe, Rodger breathes. When he breathes, I breathe.”

“Eddie is my favorite duo partner’ says Kellaway. “He has incredible technique and the most beautiful clarinet tones of anyone I’ve heard."

The audience will have a blast following the torrent of energy that comes from the duo! Dave’s Jazz Bistro will provide an intimate and unforgettable setting for patrons to hear every note, and savor every bite, of this flavorful evening. See you there!
