Las Palmas is a sweet little resteraunt in a strip mall off of Page. The ambiance is colorful and the atmosphere is vibrant. The walls and tables are covered with Mexican art. My table was full of flowers, and I almost didn't want to spoil it with food. My lunch was cheese enchiladas full of stringy goodness, beans, and rice. I was not a fan of the sweet cornbread, but everything else was outstanding. Looking forward to another visit for their fish tacos! read more

Small, unassuming restaurant in strip mall that has been here for many years and serving up fantastic food.They have about 20 booths and 5-6 tables so be prepared you may have await. They offer daily and lunch specials, kid friendly and delicious margaritas. The salsa was some of the best I have had in a long time and that alone was a plus, I had the burrito and chimichanga combo plate for dinner and it was delicious, loaded with seasoned beef and flavorful sauce with a side of cilantro rice and beans. This might just be my new go to place for Mexican food and I hope you won't be afraid to give them a try. read more

Have been a frequent customer for years and love the food and drinks. The owner, Jorge, is there every day and waits on the tables. Family owned and operated. Local people who are great to deal with. Every item that I have is top notch and real Mexican food, not the chain store wannabe stuff. read more

A very nice, small, family run business. Great food, great service, a great pace to have dinner.

Rating this as my least favorite Mexican food I've had ever. The steak ranchero described as "tender cuts of flank steak slowly sautéed in veggies" is actually chewy cubes of beef stewed with broccoli, cauliflower, and mushrooms- which is not what I have in mind for an entree for this style restaurant. I may also mention I did look up what the dish was before ordering and in all the recipes it has more fajita veggie mix (onion, red pepper, bell pepper). The flavor did not make up for the mixup. The other meat from a burrito was over cooked and dried out. The dining room feels congested and closed in. The gigantic blue light bug zapper above the dining room tables adds the cherry on top to the ambiance. the service was very very friendly and welcoming. The staff knew some customers by name which is nice to see business recognize their regulars. read more

Tamales are not home made. Yuck. Fajitas not good either. I cannot recommend. Try Mi Ranchito instead.

My wife and I joined another couple for dinner here last week. This was our first time. I judge a Mexican restaurant on chile rellenos and tamales. I had both and they were definitely made in-house. My opinion, but get those right and everything else will be. They were excellent. (and everyone's choices were great) The service, the food and the personal satisfaction knowing revenues and a good tip go directly to owners, not a chain, has me giving them a first tier rating. It certainly did not hurt that their margaritas are some of the very best and I'm quite critical on that. read more

Everything was absolutely PERFECT! Fish Tacos!!! Great friendly service. I'll be going there on a regular basis from now on.

It's a solid Mexican go-to for us. We've tried various dishes and always been happy with each of them. The servers are attentive and prompt. Always seems clean & I love that they sell candy. Chicken nachos are my hangover cure, and I always order them from Palmas. read more

Unfortunately we ordered this las palmas tonight via uber eats... I thought this was the incredibly delicious Las Palmas in Maplewood, I COULDNT HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG. Ordered 2 salads, fajitas, and "Margarita" cheese dip. They forgot the chicken salad entirely (probably lucky), the fajitas (perillada) was inedible the meat was so dry. Almost choked on account of chewiness. I was home from work with a cold today and truly think the couple bites I ate made my illness worse. ...I ordered from the correct las palmas and leaving my house sick to pick up, that's how much redemption I need. This "las palmas on page" meal is going straight in the trash. Will not be making this mistake again. read more

Wow! Came here during a power outage at home and then the power went out at Las Palmas. But...the service was great and the staff did their utmost to make sure we got a meal to eat. Jorge came around to all the tables to apologize and assured us they were doing their best to serve everyone. The food was still delicious as always and the margaritas were flowing! Thanks Las Palmas! read more

Terrible. Service and food. Asked for double beans, no rice. They confirmed. They brought rice. It was a big deal. They made it embarrassing. My sister fell in the bathroom. The floor was wet. We left after that. I wouldn't ever come back. read more

Returned to Las Palmas after several years and I am happy to report they are bacj to being an excellent place for AUTHENTIC Mexican like they were several years ago!!! And thankfully they still have that amazing roasted corn and tomato soup! The portions are generous and the server we had (who I believe is a family member) was super friendly and attentive! Love this place and can't wait to go back! read more

To our surprise, this was some of the best Tex-Mex we've had in Saint Louis. The biggest surprise was that it is in Overland and not down on Cherokee Street. We discovered Las Palmas through a Entertainment.com Coupon and when I checked it out here on Yelp, several of my friends had given them 4 Stars. So we thought why not give them a try. The SO had an ice tea, but when I'm having Mexican fare, I need a Margarita. Theirs is made with a good mix, it's not too sweet and not too sour. It's just the right mix and they do not skimp on the booze either. One Margarita at lunch had a nice punch. They were quick to bring chips and they bought us two small dishes of salsa. When the server sat them down, I asked him if one was spicier. He informed us they were the same. How cool, we each got our own dish to dip our chips. No need to worry about double dipping. The chips were fresh and still warm when they arrived to our table. We also experienced their Cheese Dip which was the typical white cheese dip that you get at most inexpensive Tex-Mex restaurants. Our entrees is what separated Las Palmas from the other Tex-Mex places we've been to. Both side dishes really shined. The Cilantro Lime rice was a pleasant change from the traditional Spanish Rice. It was moist and refreshing. Their re-fried beans were a nice change too. You could actually see beans, in a spicy thick broth. The Burrito Supreme was huge. It was packed tight with beef and topped with melted cheese and sour cream. A side of Guacamole was the perfect accompaniment. My Pollo Ranchero was a burst of flavor. The grilled chicken, big pieces of pepper, onion, black olives and broccoli. They served it with some fresh flour tortillas. I filled two of the tortillas, but the chicken and veggies were so good I finished mine without using anymore tortillas. We ended the feast with an appropriate dessert, Flan. When ever I see Flan on a menu, I have to order it and I am glad I did so here. This is best Flan I have had and I had to share it. Next time I'll know better and order my own. Our server was good, but he was rather quite. I don't think he spoke that much English. read more

Las Palmas Mexican Restaurant - La Parrillada Fajita - Mexican Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

This was beyond disappointing. We ordered from here and the portions were very small. I got 6 tiny shrimp for my fajitas. The shrimp were like rubber. I eventually spit them out cause I was chewing so much. The food was cold and we live a block away. We had to warm everything up. We also asked for chips with salsa and got the smallest bag of chips.. read more

I got Cold food that was missing several items. I ordered at 7:45PM and the cooked it it at 7:50PM The order was set for 9PM The manager had his staff cook the meal AN HOUR AHEAD OF THE DELIVERY. The deliver was pushed to 9:10PM, then 9:30PM by the restaurant. Then 9:50PM due to the driver. When I got it, it was missing quite a bit, the pico, lettuce and cream and extra tortillas. This was Triple Fajitas. We all know what comes with it. Not to mention the rice and beans and fajitas were put into a single styrofoam tray which had beans leaking out of it and was broken. I paid 16 bucks for a ridiculous small amount of food. Also I'm allergy to flour, and I requested corn, even after their website said they only serve corn. They sent flour. But it gets better, I call up there and the owner instantly starts blaming the driver for the missing food and tardiness. I'm livid. There's no way a driver is going to eat just the Lettuce, Pico, Cream, and tortillas. But the owner refused any responsibility told me to call the company. The manager insisted it was all the driver. Never going to eat there again. AVOID THIS PLACE. Try El Maguay read more

Delicious Delicious Delicious!!!! It's all about the food here. The restaurant is smaller, clean and fine for dining. The staff is great and friendly. But the food is sooooo delicious. Don't go there if you are expecting a fancy dining experience, rather great food , great staff in a clean and modest dining area. I highly recommend read more

Excellent food, chips served hot and fresh with delicious salsa and queso, top-notch, attentive service, and appropriately priced menu. This will be my family's go-to Mexican restaurant in St. Louis from this point forward. As I told the gentleman, I don't know how I hadn't discovered Las Palmas before now, living in Olivette! I had just come from one too many poor, completely unsatisfying, wildly overpriced experiences at Chevys, and had tired of driving all the way over to U City only to wait in a 40 minute line at Mi Ranchito's, so this is a real gift, to find this wonderful gem right under my nose, barely a mile from my home! read more

Was very good food but to many flies The food looked really good it looked packaged but hey idk read more

For my wife and I, we get that eating out, like most everything else, is truly subjective. For example, my wife likes salsa and hot sauce that would burn the paint off of the space shuttle and I, on the other hand, prefer mine far more subdued - as in, leaving my lips and innards without smoldering embers either in or, to put it gently, out. That being said, our experiences are really about sharing our perspective and those things that ring true for us. People say "authentic" as if that is a definition that holds the same meaning for everyone. This place is authentic, if you base it on the fact that the recipes are authentic to the owners and their personal interpretation of their offerings. Meaning, if I decide to make you a burger the way that I like them, you can bet your tutu that it's "authentic". Well, it is. No. Really. So, if you want Tex-Mex (lived in Houston and San Antonio, Texas for several years), or something akin to a more robust Taco Bell, this is not the place. The business isn't fancy. The decor is, well, ya' know, a salute the Mexican Heritage without making you feel like you've just walked in on Cinco De Mayo exploding in bright colors all around you. And much like the business itself, for us, the food is not fancy. I had the steak burrito and enchilada. My wife went with the steak chimichanga and chicken burrito (and the habanero sauce that had me sweating from just smelling it - she ate it all). There food is lightly seasoned and that allows for you to really enjoy the flavors of the meat(s). The cilantro rice was new for me but, still tasty. Not something that I had ever had before so I admit, the first couple of bites were, different but, not distasteful. Just, new. The beans - whew, tasty! The sauces. Not too heavy, and not too much. The chips were fresh, crisp and quite delicious. In the end, I think you might go here because you want food with substance that isn't like every other place that has a taco and beans. I think that you go here to have something that's an experience outside of what we may have come to expect from Americanized Mexican fare. One trip to see and perhaps, like my wife and I, you might go back again. read more

Las Palmas is a solid choice for Mexican in this neighborhood. If you're looking for very authentic then this might not be for you but it's still good. The chips and salsa are flavorful and they have a large menu. On a Tuesday I ordered a combo with 1 cheese enchilada, 1 pork tamale, cilantro rice, and corn cake instead of beans. Best thing on the plate was the rojo enchilada sauce which made the enchilada taste great. The corn cake was a little bit dry. I liked the tamale. Service is friendly and speedy! I wouldn't hesitate to return but I'm not going out of my way. read more

Las Palmas Mexican Restaurant - 1 Tamale & 1 Enchilada Combo - Mexican Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

My buddy and I got to go here at like 4:00 pm; it was empty so we were the only ones in there. Chips are great, one of the better places to go for their free chips; the salsa is the bomb there. However, thats about the only thing that stands out compared to all the other Mexican restaurants in the area. The food just isn't as good; I ordered the fajitas, the portions of meat were extremely small, the seasoning just didn't seem like there was much of it, and it was kinda burnt and stuck onto the hot plate. The service was also quite poor for being the only group there; it took a while for my water to get refilled when it was empty. read more

I ordered the special of 3 fish tacos for $10. I was happy with the taste, amount and the actual chunks of fish with my tacos. I also could apprecitate the fact they have habenero sauce available on the table. Service was a bit slow, but we did rush them with about 20 people. Plus, others kept coming in. Still, teas & waters went dry & that is never good with salty & spicy food. read more

Visited this restaurant with some friends from work and the experience was below average. Even though the service was good, the food was not. I ordered three different tacos, one was over cooked and inedible, another was lacking flavor and the other one was pretty good. Overall, I bet you can find better Mexican food elsewhere read more

My wife and I have eaten here about 15-20 times. In the last 6 weeks. My wife is pregnant (in her second trimester) and has had major food aversions. Most nights, all she wants is a bean burrito and some chips with queso dip. Sometimes she'll get creative and order a tostada with beans, but then she's right back to the bean burrito the next day. We've been there often enough that we have become regulars. We know the staff (say hi to Jorge for me) and we always chat with them a bit while we are there. They couldn't be nicer. During all those visits, I've tried lots of things on the menu, and my rating for Las Palmas has gradually gone up. Their chips and salsa are fantastic. Their burritos, carne asada, and chimichangas are good. Their beans are good. I don't love their rice or tacos, but otherwise, I've enjoyed everything I've had there. I really enjoy going to Las Palmas now - I can always count on good food and friendly faces. Definitely a five star option for me now. (Even though for great tacos, I'd still go to a taqueria on Cherokee Street!) read more

I tried this place for lunch one day and was impressed with the food. This location is a little stale but not bad by any means; just would benefit from an update. I order a combination lunch plate that came with a ground beef crunchy taco, chicken enchilada, rice and beans. Everything was cooked just right, especially the taco. The food was cheap and service excellent as I was in and out in under 20 minutes. I will definitely go back and try more of the menu. read more

Las Palmas Mexican Restaurant - Lunch combo (beef taco, chicken enchilada, rice and beans). - Mexican Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Awesome dinner. You got the combo: chicken enchilada and steak chimi, both were delicious.

I love that their chicken tacos were above average and remained tender vs dry. Their marinated pork for the taco was good too! Steak, hard to mess up but they didn't and did a fantastic job. The pork taco was greasiest but had the flavor and was easiest to eat. The waitress was great at CS. Very quiet before rush hour and t was peaceful. Right off of a busy street where It is ignored because of surrounding fast foods that isn't the best for you. If you want a light meal that won't put your productivity to sleep, try here. Very family orientated read more

We used to go to Las Palmas on Woodson Road regularly. We loved the food, the service, the decor, the live entertainment ... and it didn't hurt that it was walking distance from our home so we could drink freely and then walk home. Until they had a fire and closed. I had assumed that this was simply another location of the same restaurant, so we eventually decided to give it a try. I asked the waitress about any plans to re-open the other location and she informed me that they were not connected at all. She seemed like she might be a little tired of explaining that to people. The food was a little different than what we mistakenly expected, but not bad. The service was quick and courteous and the restaurant was clean and colorful. read more

My 42 oz margarita is doing the talking for me tonight....and it says "freaking delicious!" We rolled into Las Palmas # 3 at 7:30 PM on Cinco de Mayo and there was a line snaking out the door. Go figure. This was our second food stop of the night. First was Las Palmas # 1 on Woodson, which had a tent and a band and was filled to the brim with people, where I learned that a table of four was a wait of at least 50 minutes (probably longer) and I was told that they are affiliated with the Las Palmas location in Maplewood but not with Las Palmas # 3 on Page (What? But they have the same name and I always assumed they belonged to the same family/chain but apparently I assume too much) So we gave up waiting there and came to Las Palmas # 3, with no band and no tent, but still a 20 minutes wait. At last, we sat down. I ordered a 42 oz margarita immediately and oh my! It was like a boozy fruit smoothie. Yum! (I got peach). We munched through two baskets if chips before our entrees arrived. We ordered the entree that was listed below Mixed Fajitas on the menu (d'oh! Forgot the name) it had mixed vegetables, chicken, carnitas, steak, and shrimp. Everything was delicious. The shrimp wasn't overcooked for once (yes!). I have eaten quite a few times at this location and I really think it has the best tex-mex in town. Secretly I always thought it had better tasting tex-mex than the original Las Palmas on Woodson and apparently I wasn't crazy for thinking that as they are not affiliated. read more
