According to [[Frommer's]], which rates the venue 2 out of 3 stars, "In 2013, the Palm underwent a much needed renovation and now, finally, the venue is as good as the performers (heck, even the bathrooms are clean). The nightly show uses performers from across the Americas ... and covers a broad array of genres from drag acts ([[Dame Edna Everage|Damn Edna]] is a local favorite) to impressive musical groups, like [[Well-Strung|Well Strung]], classical musicians who also play [[Lady Gaga]]. There are two shows nightly, and sometimes a matinee. The crowd is mostly gay, but straights won't feel out of place if they come (the management and patrons are a tolerant bunch)."<ref>{{Cite web|title=The Palm Cabaret and Bar in Puerto Vallarta and the Riviera Nayarit - Nightlife|url=https://www.frommers.com/destinations/puerto-vallarta/nightlife/the-palm-cabaret-and-bar|url-status=live|access-date=2021-10-29|website=[[Frommer's]]|archive-date=2021-10-29|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211029154906/https://www.frommers.com/destinations/puerto-vallarta/nightlife/the-palm-cabaret-and-bar}}</ref>
