Palette 22 pairs a tapas-style menu with a gallery atmosphere in Shirlington, where local artists work live on-site and their pieces are available for purchase alongside the meal. The kitchen is open, and the menu draws on global street food — handcrafted tacos, sliders, bao buns, sizzling meats and seafood — with gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options built into the lineup.
The format leans into sharing: a bottomless dining option runs through lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch, paired with housemade red and white sangria and a rotating seasonal cocktail list.
Regulars point to strong value on the bottomless menu, ingredient quality that outpaces expectations, and standout plates like the skewers and fungi pizza, alongside the local artwork that gives the room its identity.
