Plus they serve horchata, that gets a bonus star in my book. If you're in Palmyra or passing through and want Mexican this is your stop. If next door to the gas station on the highway, located on the frontage road. Easy to get in and out.

The restaurant is clean and vibrantly decorated. We also go to take in part of a World Cup game. Our server was so friendly, like an old friend. The menu has a great selection old favorites and specialties. My huevos con chorizo was tasty and there was enough to take home for later. Their salsa was fresh and their chips were really good. Better than most restaurant chips I've had. My son had the Carne Asada. I tasted the meat and it was very flavorful. He was actually full at the end of his meal. Quite a fit for a 17 year-old. Whether you're traveling on the road or local, I would definitely recommend El Nopal.

Food was out in 10 minutes. Food was plated like every Mexican place you go, with huge portions. The flavor was a step up though. We finished our plates and gladly left stuffed.

Lunch specials and dinner combinations are especially good values. Service was acceptable and the flavorful order came up quickly and correctly. My combination included a taco, enchilada, and tostada. The ground beef on the tostada needed more seasoning but the order was otherwise filling and satisfying.

There was a large party in the front but noone waiting. We couldn't decide between tacos and bbq so we ordered both :) We ordered 2 full meals which was enough to feed an entire family! Daughter and I LOVED everything we ordered! Especially the dessert! Service was great from the beginning as well. The owners work the counter and the food line and when we asked a bit about the restaurant they took the time to tell us a bit about it which I enjoyed. You order at the counter and then the food is brought to the table. Only thing I didn't love here is that none of the tables that we tried would sit flat. They all have a wobble or wobbly leg and there was at least one time I thought my drink was going to spill from table wobble - I do not like the anxiety of having to wonder if my drink is going to spill on me during a dinner out.

As we were leaving, we noticed a sign on the door saying they closed at 4:00 PM, but it was not there when we walked in. Had we known, we would have chosen somewhere else to meet.
