" Palenque Restaurant is a great find! The ambience is casual but with a touch of authenticity. Their food selection is robust, boasting traditional Mexican flavors. I particularly enjoyed their huarache topped with tender meat and fresh toppings. I also appreciate the BYOB policy as it cool to bring in my drink of choice. However, on a recent visit, my table was a bit wobbly and it distracted me a little from the meal. Nonetheless, it was a pleasant experience overall and can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I decided to try Palenque on a whim after hearing a lot of great things. The staff was incredibly welcoming, and the décor was charming and authentic. I tried their shrimp aguachile, and it was fresh beyond belief! However, on my visit, I noticed they were a bit short-staffed which led to longer wait times for service. Overall, I'd say the food is definitely worth the wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Palenque Restaurant, and it did not disappoint! From the moment we walked in, the staff was friendly and made us feel welcome. We started with nachos, which were generous in size and very tasty! For the main course, I chose the carne asada and it was perfectly cooked. The only downside was that the atmosphere could be a bit noisy during peak hours. Despite that, I would absolutely return for the delicious food and friendly service! " (*Curated Review*)

" Palenque Restaurant is a culinary gem! The dishes are authentic and bursting with Mexican flavors. I especially enjoyed their flautas, which reminded me of home-cooked meals. I appreciate the sizable portions; I always leave with my hunger satisfied. The only downside was the slight noise level during busy hours, but that’s a small price to pay for such amazing food. Highly recommend it to all! " (*Curated Review*)

" Palenque has quickly become one of my favorite spots. The tacos were piled high and bursting with flavor. The team here is so friendly, you can tell they care about their customers. I wouldn’t say it’s the cheapest place, but you definitely get what you pay for regarding portion sizes and flavor. I'll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Palenque is a delightful spot for authentic Mexican food! The carne asada was marinated to perfection. I did experience some wait time during dinner but the food made it worth it. Staff members are always smiling which is a welcoming touch. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for quality food in a casual atmosphere! " (*Curated Review*)
