" Disappointed on my last visit. The tacos I ordered were soggy and lacked seasoning. The service was decent, but I expected more given the positive reviews I read before going. It felt like the staff was overwhelmed despite it not being very busy. The atmosphere is nice, but if the food doesn't improve, I might have to reconsider my options. Not the best experience I've had at a Tex-Mex restaurant. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a very mixed experience at Las Palapas. The first time I visited, the food was exceptional and very authentic. However, my last visit left much to be desired. The chips were stale and the carne guisada was overly greasy. Although the server was very polite and attentive, the food quality really needs to be consistent. It is such a shame because they have the potential to be fantastic. I think I may give it one more chance before making a final decision. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have never been disappointed with the meals at Las Palapas! My favorites are their sizzling fajitas and the cheesy enchiladas. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and served in a delightful environment. We often bring friends and family here, and everyone always leaves satisfied. The waitstaff is attentive and has a great knowledge of the menu. I can't wait to return for another fantastic meal soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I just can't say enough about Las Palapas! Every dish I have tried has been delicious and well-prepared. Their sopes and nachos are fantastic appetizers. The staff is always friendly and ready to help with any menu questions. I appreciate how they keep the place clean and inviting. Honestly, it’s one of the best places for authentic Tex-Mex around! " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I have visited Las Palapas several times, and it's always a treat. Their tacos and tortas are especially good. Last time we went, the manager even stopped by to ask how everything was, which was a nice touch. While we never had a major issue, the speed of service can fluctuate, but we've always found the food to be worth the wait. Totally a place I would recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Always a solid choice! I've been coming to Las Palapas for years, and it remains one of my favorites. The carne guisada is a standout dish — perfectly seasoned and served with fresh tortillas. Service has always been prompt, and the staff are super friendly! Great ambiance and a dependable spot for casual dining with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" First time dining here and very happy with everything! The ambiance is family-friendly and the food was right on point. I ordered the crispy tacos and they were filled generously with meat. The service was attentive without being overbearing, which I really appreciate. Overall, a great find in the area! " (*Curated Review*)
