" Visited Palenque Kitchen on a busy Saturday night, and it was worth every minute spent there. The waiter was on point and checked up on us regularly. The tacos were delicious, and the margarita flight was an absolute must-try. The music was a bit loud at times but added to the fun ambiance. I'll definitely be coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been to Palenque a few times now and thought it was time to write a review. The dishes have remained consistent; they have great flavors and generous portions. The only improvement could be in the acoustics; it can get a little loud, especially when busy. But overall, I really enjoy the food and service, and will keep coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Eddie was my server during my visit to Palenque, and I must say he was excellent! Very attentive but also gave us space to enjoy our meal. The food? Incredible! Authentic flavors bursting in every dish. The guacamole was fresh, and the fajitas came sizzling. I wish I could eat there every week! " (*Curated Review*)
