The Texas Combo and The Crispy Tacos were delicious as always. The extra salsa was greatly appreciated and the Chile con Queso was scrumptious!!! Everything was packaged with care and labeled. If only all other restaurants would do this. Yall went above and beyond and I was so pleased. Kudos to all employees 👏 🙌 👍 Highly recommend El Palenque for some great Mexican food 😋

So very good. Not spicy at all like some would think. I prefer all beef and this one was a mix with beef and chicken but still very good. Large portion, I can eat 3 or 4 times off one plate. Definitely recommend trying this.

Their beef fajitas are some of the best around. They are also better priced. Includes sour cream and cheese. Tortillas are good too

This location off 249 is always going above and beyond. Thanks for the extra salsa as requested and for sending the meat separate so that my tacos didn't get soggy. Wish the other location did this. The food is always great at both places though. Delicious and very recommended!!
