It occupies a space that's been inhabited by a Cajun restaurant and then a wing place. When you walk it, it's not much to speak of. The huge wall mural from the Cajun restaurant is still on the wall. There's seating for about 20 or so people. So if you're looking for a restaurant with character, this is it :) The salsa verde phenomenal, tacos dorados fantastic, the chicken quesadillas yummy. Basically, I haven't had anything there I wouldn't order over and over again! The chicken in the quesadillas was so tasty, and had a little kick. The steak in the tacos dorados tender and flavorful.

And the taco salad shell was stale, tasteless & gummy on the bottom as though the order sat for a long time before serving. When my party complained about the taco salad, we were informed "that's just the way it is- order the meat to be separate and it won't happen" we were told. We won't be going back.

We were seated immediately and asked for our drink preference. There were a lot of tacos ordered at our table and El Palenque was right on it. Our server was attentive and never let our drinks get empty. I'm sure a few other delights like enchiladas and fajitas were ordered but the tacos had the majority. Everyone was happy and full by the time we left. Pro Tip: Order some queso to go with the chips and salsa they bring out.
