" Visiting El Palenque was a pleasant surprise! The atmosphere was vibrant, reflecting Mexican culture. I treated myself to the seafood platter, and it was excellent! The shrimp and fish had a lighter seasoning that complemented their natural flavors. The staff were friendly and made sure our drinks were always full. My only suggestion would be to add a little more spice to some of the dishes for an authentic kick. " (*Curated Review*)
