This was our first experience with Salvadoran cuisine and a most enjoyable experience it was. The good nature of the folks who work made our visit all the better. read more

Delicious food and friendly staff. It was the closest to our hotel, but we're very glad we ate there. We shared the Parrillada Tropical, one of their specialties, which has skirt steak, chorizo, pollo, chicharron, yucca, tostones, shrimp, and more. We took a lot home for the next day. If you're near SeaTac you should try it. read more

Food was amazing! Service was very pleasant, but slow. Appearance closer to a dive bar, but quaint in its own way. Overall, a great experience because the food, too dish, was excellent. read more

We were visiting from CA, and decided to get some Hispanic food around seatac and It was good . I got 2 popusas and was very satisfied. I will be back here next time i visit Seattle read more

Good was great, servers super nice, perfect spot to grab a bite before jumping on a flight. Downside is that they have absolutely no drink specials. I will definitely be back. read more

I asked to order to go, and the girl at front was like "ughhhhhh", and then someone else came out to take my order and made her go into the back. Food came out decently fast. I would think that for a restaurant right by the airport, they would know to toss napkins and/or to go silverware in, but they didn't. The yellow rice is hardly edible. Carne asada has good flavor but the cut of meat is very tough and overcooked. The dish doesn't come with any of the normal things (guac, onions). Just rice, steak, vegetables and tortilla. Tortillas taste awesome, but are super thick! read more

This place is To die for! I always get the papusas con queso Chicharron And the custard plantain for dessert the flavors are so blasting on the tastebuds it's probably one of my favorite place I also had the Agua Fresca ensalada and it tasted like a tropical paradise with bits of different fruits . The papusas are very filling I could eat like maybe one or two and have a lot of meat and cheese in them don't forget to grab some chips and salsa other salsa is to die for and House-made! read more

My college roomie of 3 years is responsible for the obsession with pupusas. Anytime I see a Salvadorean establishment I know that there will most likely be pupusas on the menu. It's a comfort food. A stuffed tortilla with choice of fillings. I had one filled with cheese and one filled with cheese and zucchini (loroco). So good. Came with sides of salsa and pickled coleslaw. I had to get horchata too, anything cinnamon or clove flavor is for me read more

I was recommended this place by the staff at the hotel in which I was staying, and was conveniently within walking distance. I came to this restaurant on a Tuesday afternoon around 3pm and was seated immediately upon entry. We were the only customers there at that time. We had the pleasure of being served by Maria. The food here was delicious and priced just right. read more

I am currently sitting at a table in this establishment and have been sitting for 29 minutes without anyone coming to take my order or drinks.. there are 13 tables total. 4 of which have people sitting in them. I'll update you later... Captains log it's been 33 min, it is apparent that I've been forgotten... I will sit in protest and sing the song of my people! Captains log 34 min... they did not like my singing.... but they did acknowledge me and take my order! No apology was given. I will continue to move forward. Captains log... i am certain my food has been spat in... or poisoned the man with the knifes continues to look my way... I see you... seeing me... SEEING YOU! We've now locked eyes and I take a BIG fork full. If this is my last entry... call the health depa read more

The place is very nice and cozy. It was located right across the street from the hotel I was staying so I decided to give it a try. While the service was friendly, it was a little on the slow side. I never got a refill on my pop. The food was very good and there was plenty of it. I did not leave hungry. read more

I'll start with the actual restaurant: It was spotless! Not fancy, but clean. The staff was friendly and my food was ready when they said it would be. I had to pay an extra 50 cents for each to-go container, which I have never done before. I was a bit disappointed with my order. Hubby and I both got street tacos with sides of rice and beans, The tacos were chicken (very good), asada steak (a little dry), and shredded beef (more like dry brisket). The rice was yellow; I usually get the other kind but it was fine. The beans had the consistency of a cream soup. Hubby added some of the rice to thicken it up a bit, declaring "OK". We got 2 cups of salsa - red and green, which we didn't care for. Dinner would have been great if the salsas tasted better and the meat hadn't been cooked so long. read more

The food was excellent. Best salsa around. The place might not look like much but we got great service and yummy meals.

I was staying at a nearby hotel without a car and wanted to find something​ quick and local. I decided to venture down the street and check it out. I ordered the fajitas but I would say the portion was a bit small for $17.95. The flavor was ok and the veggies seemed freshly chopped. The accompanying salad was very small but the lettuce was browning on the edges. Maybe there are better items on the menu and more of a locals watering hole. read more

Love their pupusas. It took me years to find a good pupusa spot in my area, I would have to drive to burien/white center in the past.

Great food, very nice waiter! Really hit the spot with a great price point! Thank you, Simone

Still top on my list to get pupusas & tacos! One great thing about this place is service. I will be a regular customer, no doubt! The place is modest inside & out but if you're looking for authentic Salvadoran food, this is it! Update 12/17/18: I came back several times to either eat in or takeout. I wish they would at least clear up the front of clutter & Have festive lights, send out flyers to neighboring hotels & offices with coupons or special deals. Some kind of marketing maneuver...I hate to lose this place coz the food is authentic & great customer service. Peace. read more

Close to the hotel, and the empty parking lot should have given me a clue. Service was a bit slow. Pleasant, but it almost seemed like I was interrupting their chat session - which continued the whole time I was there. Ordered beef burrito, and it had an off taste. Ate half and considered it a sign to stick to my diet Prices are okay, but overall I would pass read more

Great service and delicious food! Enjoyed trying papusas for the first time! Chicharones were fantastic!

We had the Plato Tipoco, which is basically a sampler platter. We didn't care for the fried pork, but everything else was delicious. Service was friendly and quick! We've never had Salvadoran food, so I didn't know what to expect. But everything was perfect. We'll definitely come back. read more

Actually, Las Palmas is NOT a Mexican restaurant. It is a Salvadoran (pupuseria) restaurant. I am no expert on this type of cuisine, but I know what tastes good to me, and Las Palmas has it! El Tipico is what my boyfriend and I shared. It was $13.99 and had enough food for 2-3 people. We just fell in love with their pupusas which came with a pickled cabbage relish (curtido) and a bottle of thin tomato salsa. They were like thin pancakes stuffed with goodies (You can choose from cheese, veggies, herbs, meats, etc.). Their corn tamal tasted like corn bread and delicious with sour cream. Empanadas looked like a small football and were filled with deliciously sweet egg custard. Everything was hot (even the complimentary chips!) and tasted wonderful. The people working there were not only nice and friendly but extremely accommodating. What a great find! I am so happy that we decided to stop by and give this restaurant a go. read more

Despite what it says in the title of the restaurant as being a Mexican restaurant; Las Palmas is an El Salvadoran restaurant as well. The menu items are slightly different from your typical Mexican restaurant both in taste and presentation. Many of the menu items are indeed Mexican food. There are burritos, tacos, quesadillas and such. I got the menu item described as a Cheese Stuffed Chile. It sounds like a Chile Relleno but the similarity stops there. The chile was stuffed with hamburger, cheese, onions and more. Something like what you might see with a casserole dish. The dish is not too spicy but I enjoyed it all the same and would certainly get the dish again. Other positive elements to the dining experience was the chips and dip that we got to start out with but instead of salsa we got a kind of bean dip which was quite good! The sides that came with our dish, rice and refried beans were very good as well! The bean dip was not the same thing as the refried beans. Let that be said. I only have one negative comment to make about Las Palmas and that was my Horchata drink. I really did not care for it. It seemed to be grainy at the bottom of the glass and kind of stuck in my throat. Perhaps this was the authentic version of the drink. I don't know. I really don't care for flavored drinks that are made out of powder because of that throat thing. All that gunk gets stuck there. The Horchata I have had before I just got out of a soda fountain before and drank it with ice and enjoyed it. This drink had no ice and was almost luke warm. Despite that I did enjoy the food and would go back. I probably won't get the Horchata again but Las Palmas is good for south of the border food and unique. South of Mexico's border that is. P.S. The other appetizers here are very good! The Pupusas are excellent! read more

Really good place with some different and delicious food. Everyone talks about their pupusas which are good but I would highly recommend the Plata tipico which has a variety of things including some really tasty empanada and yucca! While there was no children's menu, our toddler loved their quesadilla, chips and even the pupusa sauce. Service was good and parking is right in front. read more

:( This cute family owned restaurant showed promise as we walked in and already 4 other tables (about 1/3 of the tables) full. We were shown to our table and promptly given menus and water, fresh chips and a nice mild salsa. The restaurant was clean bit old. The highchair was dirty with missing straps. They serve Salvadorian food and the staff appeared to be Hispanic. I was excited to try something different and noticed their specialty was pupusas. So I ordered 3 different kinds. My kids got the enchiladas and street tacos with carne Asada. They brought out our drinks, horchata and a warm sweet corn dink that I can't remember the name of. I've made my own horchata using authentic Mexican recipes so I know what to expect. I'm pretty sure this horchata was made from an instant mix. Very gritty and very sweet. I don't know what the corn drink is supposed to taste like but I enjoyed it even knowing it was possibly from a mix as well and not homemade. The food arrived soon after and I appreciated the quick service. However this is where all the warm fuzzies started to disappear. First they totally messed up my daughters enchiladas with the wrong meat and the wrong sauce. We sent it back. It was at this point I noticed my fork had dried cheese on it so I handed to the waiter and asked for a new one. My pupusas looked amazing! Next came out my sons tacos, the kind on soft corn tortillas. The meat was scarce. :( and the corn tortillas were not even warmed up! No lime either. Very very disappointing. Finally my daughters re-do enchiladas came out. With the right meat but again with the wrong sauce. She said she'd eat it anyway so we did not mention it to the waiter that it was still wrong. We get to eating and my pupusas are even better tasting then they looked! But my kids did not get so lucky. The refried beans were nothing special, tasting like watered down canned beans from Costco. The rice, eh. I tried my daughters carne Asada and every bite I took was fatty and gristly. Some was so bad she had to spit it out as it wasn't even edible. Her corn tortillas were not heated up either leaving 3 very cold enchiladas. The entire time we were there no one refilled our waters either. This is an absolute no-no in my book. You always keep a customer's water filled. If they only served pupusas this place would be great! Maybe shut down the restaurant and open a food truck! I gave the pupusas 4.5 stars but the rest of the review gets a 2. read more

I had an excellent meal here two weeks ago and would recommend this place to anyone. I've eaten many wonderful pupusas and authentic mole dishes before, but the food at las palmas was unbeatable! I ordered several pupusas including their pupusa loca, which had a wonderful flavor of vegetables, cheese and meat. The sauce and cabbage accompanying the pupusa was plentiful and seasoned appropriately. I also had a chicken mole dish that was out of this world! The seasoning was rich and deep - perfect! and not too greasy. I'd highly recommend this restaurant to anyone because of its affordability, great service, and the quality of their food. You won't be disappointed! read more

We were on vacation in the Seattle area for 8 days and this is the only place we ate at TWICE. That's how great our food was. The breakfast combos have a choice of what's on the side and both times I had the corn tortilla. It's hot, fluffy, and the most delicious I've ever had! It's also very reasonably priced. read more

Great place to eat and so reasonable by Sea-Tac airport. Food is fresh and if you want traditional Salvadorian food including their 6 different Pupusas made with rice or corn flour. ( great for that gluten-free person). Stop by, I eat here on any of my airport runs. Victoria Uber Driver. read more

My son and I had about 15 minutes after his hockey game and before his doctor appointment (bad planning on my part lol) and they were so accommodating. We walked in and I asked if it was even possible to eat in 15 minutes and the waitress was so gracious getting us to a seat right away, but suggesting what would be quickest to eat. We had the shredded beef taco combos and it was wonderful. Great food and great staff!! Thank you :) read more

Pretty good! Salsa was a bit runny, and not at all spicy, but had good flavor. Puputas were tasty, although I have no frame of reference. Husband got the quesadillas, looked good, and he liked them. Kid got beans and rice...weirdest refried beans I've ever seen. They were soupy! But he seemed to like them. I got a margarita on the rocks, it was obviously made with a mix....only ok. Overall it was a good experience, but not fabulous. read more

We told waiter we we ordering the chimichanga because the menu said it included guacamole. He brought my fajita first -- no tortillas and no chimichanga. The chimichanga was two minutes away (so were my tortillas). Then the chimichanga come out without guacamole. "We're out of guacamole and sour cream today." He obviously struggled with his English. The food that was served was okay but nothing to write home about. Would not go back. read more
