" Came here for lunch, and the experience was quite pleasant. The tacos were delicious, and I especially loved the shredded beef taco. Portions were decent but could be a bit larger for my appetite. The seating is limited, but the vibrant vibe makes it lively. Will likely return to try their burritos next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Las Palmas with high expectations due to its reputation, but I found the tacos a bit lacking. They were fried well, but I felt they could use more seasoning to really bring out the flavors. Overall, it was a decent meal, but not my favorite in Santa Cruz. " (*Curated Review*)

" Las Palmas offers a casual atmosphere with mouthwatering tacos! Their carne asada is always well-seasoned, and the crispy shells add a fantastic crunch. I remember coming here since I was little, and it’s nice to see that it has maintained its quality over the years. I would recommend it to anyone visiting Santa Cruz! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by Las Palmas during my beach trip and fell in love with their tacos. The deep-fried shells are a must-try, and they don’t skimp on fillings. The staff took their time to explain the menu and made recommendations. My only complaint is that there wasn’t a lot of seating available, but that just adds to its charm. I’ll definitely be back. " (*Curated Review*)
