" La Palma mexicatessen is what I would call a hidden gem. Visiting for the first time, I was surprised by the friendly atmosphere and genuine Mexican food they serve. The tacos were flavorful, and the homemade tortillas really elevated the experience. I wish they had more seating because it's a popular spot, but that speaks volumes about how good the food is. I'll definitely be coming back to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" A wonderful experience overall! I love supporting local businesses, and La Palma did not disappoint. I tried their enchiladas and was blown away by the taste. The authentic flavors truly pop! The place has a nice casual vibe, ideal for enjoying good food. The only downside? It can get a little crowded during peak hours, so plan accordingly. " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely place for sampling authentic Mexican cuisine! I loved their spicy salsa and fresh tacos. The seating options are quite limited, so dining in can feel a bit cramped, especially during busy hours. Nonetheless, the food is worth it, and I enjoyed everything I ordered. The staff were friendly and offered recommendations, which I found helpful. I will definitely return again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Palma is a small spot with big flavor! I've enjoyed everything from tacos to tamales here. The fresh corn tortillas elevate every dish since they are made in-house. Expect to be greeted by a friendly staff who are always ready to help you with your order. While the outdoor seating is a great option, be prepared for a bit of a wait if you come during peak hours. Still, I can confidently say it’s worth every minute! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Palma is a delightful find! The first thing that struck me was the aroma of freshly made tortillas. I ordered their vegetarian burrito, and it was just bursting with flavor. The staff were welcoming, and eager to provide recommendations. Given the popularity of the spot, it can get a bit crowded, but I think that’s part of the charm. I will definitely return to try more from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had the most delicious experience at La Palma! The pupusas were fresh and filled with rich flavors, unlike anything I've had before. I loved the fact they make their own tortillas, adding on to the experience. I do wish they had more seating options available since there are only a few tables outside, but everything else was amazing. A fantastic spot for anyone looking for true Mexican cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried La Palma for the first time last week and I can't get over how authentic it felt! Their birria tacos were so good, and the homemade tortillas are the star of the show. The prices are fair for the quality you get. I do wish they had more indoor seating, as it feels a bit cramped during busy times. Regardless, I will definitely be returning to try their other delicious offerings! " (*Curated Review*)
