El Palenque was founded in 1987 by the three Serna Brothers. Their first location was established in Spring, TX in 1987 to be followed by 2 more locations. As pioneers in Houston's Full Service Mexica…
my favorite place for chicken quesadillas. there salsa is great for someone like me who can't handle too much heat. I actually made 2 meals out of my order so the value was great.

One of the best, if not the best chili rellenos (ground beef). This is my third time to order and everytime it's cooked to perfection. The presentation, even coming by DoorDash is beautiful. It is just the right amount and the freshness of this dish is stellar.

They did not give me a side of pico or extra salsa. BUT they did get my Enchilasda modifications right. I asked for chicken instead of ground beef in the notes. I'm glad about that especially because there wasn't an option to select the shredded chicken; I had to type it in. (Not a lot of places pay attention to that.) the food always tastes amazing and the salsa is so addictive. I always add it to my queso to add a little freshness to the taste. 3 Enchiladas plus rice and beans gives me a good amount to eat the next day. I would definitely order again, but maybe with a margarita next time (strong as HECK by the way). This is one of my favorite Tex-mex restaurants that don't feel like a huge chain (chuys, gringos)
9/10 would recommend

This is one of my favorite restaurants but the take out is a fail! The shrimp cocktail was so spicy and loaded with jalapenos it wasn't edible (I asked for no jalapenos) and the guacamole was tomatoes, jalapenos, onion & lettuce all mixed up with avacado sauce, again, not edible. That was an expensive waste of what should have been a great dinner for us. They always go above and beyond when you dine in but this was just awful.

These Garden Fajitas are my absolute favorite thing from here but love lots of their food such as their Fish Tacos, Caldo Soup, and the best most consistent Shrimp Brochette b/c their bacon is always crispy...just yum!
