" I've been to El Palenque a few times and I have to say, it’s always a mixed bag. The food tends to taste good, especially their burritos. So flavorful! However, the service is often strained during busy hours, which dampens the experience. The atmosphere is fine, but I wish the staff were a bit more attentive. Despite these issues, I’ll probably return for the awesome food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love this restaurant! The positive spirit shines through the staff who are genuinely friendly. My go-to dish is the carne asada, which comes with the tastiest sides. I also appreciate how clean the establishment is kept. It's a reliable spot for amazing Mexican food, and I will continue to recommend it to friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried El Palenque, and I have mixed feelings. The decor is charming, and it definitely has an authentic feel to it. However, I found some of the food to be a bit bland. The service was polite but a bit distant, making me feel a bit overlooked at times. I wouldn't mind visiting again to see if my experience improves. " (*Curated Review*)

" The best Mexican restaurant I've been to in years! The ambiance puts you in the heart of Mexico, and every dish is authentic and made with love. I especially loved the mole sauce! Service was swift and the staff were genuinely hospitable, making us feel like valued guests. When I visit again, I will definitely be bringing friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, this restaurant has continued to impress me time and time again. The tacos al pastor are mouth-watering and really transport you back to authentic Mexican street food. The downside? The service can be hit-or-miss. Last time, our server was great, but on my recent visit, it felt a bit scattered. Regardless, the food keeps me coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited El Palenque with my family, hoping for a nice meal, but it fell flat. The food was okay, although a bit bland compared to other Mexican places I’ve been to. The service also left something to be desired; our server seemed overwhelmed and forgetful. While the atmosphere was quite nice, the experience overall didn’t meet my expectations. I might try it again during off-peak hours to see if that changes the experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" We decided to visit El Palenque after hearing good things from friends, and it did not disappoint! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the food? Absolutely on point! I ordered their special burrito, which was generously stuffed and bursting with flavor. However, the service felt a bit slow during peak hours, and we had to wait longer than expected for our drinks. But overall, it was a pleasant dining experience, and I’m looking forward to my next meal there. Just one tip: try the guacamole; it’s homemade and delicious! " (*Curated Review*)
