Ummm, better than other Tex Mex places but still unimpressive overall. Fresh complimentary chips and salsa were a welcoming treat. Variety of margaritas but seemed to be overpriced. Hubby enjoyed his chimichanga and my taco salad was quite large. Lettuce quality was inconsistent though. I liked the salsa for a dressing option. Plenty of avocado, yum! Oh, hubby left his glasses and thankfully, they were there to be picked up the next day. Not bad not great, good , would try again. read more

Palapas Bar and Grill - House salad veggie chimichunga - Mexican Near Me - Cumming, Georgia

Terrible service. My food was delivered cold. Waitress couldn't be found. Took forever to get our meals. We won't be back.

Get Mexican restaurant hidden in a shopping center. Food variety is excellent. You have your typical Mexican dishes and then you have the specialty food which is delicious. Drinks are poured well and the staff is like family. read more

Palapas has been a great restaurant to visit. The ambiance is always good. They are to usually packed with customers on any weeknight, but usually seat us within 20 minutes as a party of 4. Our favorite item continues to be the Birria tacos, the mixed berry margarita and the chicken fajitas. Highly recommended, eat here once a month. Food reheats well read more

This spot is my go to for Mexican take out/delivery. This place is located conveniently off of 369 inside the Wal-Mart shopping center next to Domino's Pizza. Like I said, I normally do take out/delivery from here and have never actually dined in here. I will say the delivery is always on time and food is always fresh and hot. My favorite here is the Carna Asada Steak, Mexican Rice, and their Steak hard tacos. The steak here is always juicy and tender. The salsa is amazing as well and they always give you a generous portion of food and sauces. The cheese dip is here awesome as well. I highly recommend this place for take out/delivery by Uber Eats, Postmates, or Door Dash. I can't wait to try more their foods in the future. read more

Love this place! Great food interesting combos and drinks excellent! Service also excellent, always. The welcome is real here and the food authentic and delicious every time. Private parking makes this easy, have an outside patio where you can bring your dog, daily drink specials Monday - Thursday. Thursday is Ladies night half price on some of the Margaritas . Great for a party of 2 to well Wenceslaus seen at least 15! Booths, table tops, extensive bar which opens to patio. Our FAV place when the craving hits! read more

Terrible service. Servers were literally cuddling in the back talking instead of checking on their tables. Very unimpressed. We had to get up twice to ask for things. read more

Our family loves Palapas. We visit at least twice a month. The food is always delicious and consistent. My favorite is the Salmon and Shrimp. The restaurant is clean and open feeling. The staff is friendly and attentive. read more

Great food and staff! We eat here a couple of times each month. The portions are large and the menu provides many options. Be sure to check out their daily specials on meals and drinks! Restaurant provides seating for large parties too. Carmelita is our favorite server! read more

Chips and salsa were good but fish tacos were extremely bland with very little fish. Adding salsa didn't help because flavors didn't mix well. Waiter was very persistent and seemed only interested in rushing me to order. First and last time to go here. read more

Food is very good. Straws are shorter than the glasses. Makes no sense. Same as last time. Bring your own straw. read more

A $19 burrito made with frozen Tyson chicken strips is unacceptable. The bar staff is nice enough but for the prices? The food is abysmal. Have a drink, then leave. read more

Loved this place! The best cheese dip I've had since moving here over 5yrs ago! (From Texas) We went for a late lunch, so they weren't busy. Loved the bar area, the music & everything was VERY clean! Large plates & portions! I got beef enchiladas and the flavor was great! We will definitely returning here often! Service was very nice as well! read more

My friend @steph_rdz123 suggested I give @palapasbarandgrill2 in Cumming a try, coincidentally, a friend had just celebrated his birthday the day prior and had a group meet to eat at Palapas in Cumming. The food and service were GREAT for a large group of 20+ people so I knew I'd be going back to check them out Their service is exceptional and their menu is different from your typical Mexican restaurant, fun menu. The inside is very spacious with a good size patio and their bar area seems to be a fun area with the TVs and the option to sit outside facing into the bar area. Pictured here Avocado Eggrolls: I could eat these every day Carnitas Plate: I always judge a Mexican restaurants by their CARNITAS. These carnitas are cooked to perfection It basically melts in your mouth. Beans are beans but their BEANS are some of the best I've had. Palapas Special (appetizer): A quesadilla... taquitos... flautas!!! All in one delicious, cheesy plate. This was another favorite along with their chipotle mayo. Chicken soup: I'm not a soup guy but I'll admit... this was tasty. Salsa and queso dip: Unfollow me if you don't like salsa and queso ... kidding, but really... get it together Thanks Stephanie for the suggestion!! #rolieats #goodeats #goodfood #mexicanfood #palapas #cumming #northgeorgia #avocadoeggrolls #quesadilla #taquitos #flautas #sopadepollo #chickensoup #carnitas #carnitasplate #chipsandsalsa #chipsandqueso #IeatwhatIwant #dontjudgeme #foodsuggestions read more

It's bartending 101. If someone places a food order or any kind...you bring them silverware. I don't want to wipe my mouth on bar napkins and scoop my crumbling taco in to my fingers like some kind of taco refugee. I had to forage for silverware on my own due to the female bartenders lack of empathy and professionalism. If you want to sit at the bar and see a female bartender with angry, unfriendly look on her face...just run. It's not worth it. The taco was ok but somewhat bland and unseasoned. read more

Food tasted good and hot. We sat inside and looked clean. Server was little inattentive.

Only been here a couple times and it's never good. Taco salad is a nasty pile of moosh, fry oil needs to be changed cuz the fries where gross and the kids burger had a weird taste. Nasty food. Never coming back read more

I came here a few years ago, and the experience was not great. I heard that this was now a Sister restaurant to Terrazas in John's Creek. I figured let's give it a second go. The Good: the server was excellent, attentive, and the staff, friendly. The restaurant was very clean, you. Can tell they care. They offered 2 slasas, the darker one with Chipotle was great. The Bad: I ordered the Steak Palapas, my brother the Enchiladas Mole. The refried beans had no flavor, none nada, nunca. They tasted like they were ground straight from a can. The other salsa, was bland, devoid of soul and taste. It was like ketchup, but like way off label ketchup, it's red, but tasted like food colored water. The Ribeye steak was not worth the $22 dollar price tag, again no flavor and tough. I was expecting the flavor and tenderness of a Steak Terrazas. Thankfully my brother had extra mole sauce. The Ugly: This place is no Terrazas, I'll drive to John's Creek from here on out. read more

I enjoyed my visit there, like the fusion of modern and traditional Mexican food. Service was on time and Ambience was pleasant. read more

Palapas Bar and Grill - Barbacoa taco frijoles charro and rice - Mexican Near Me - Cumming, Georgia

Visited on a Saturday night! There is ample parking in the plaza where this restaurant is located. They have a vegetarian menu section as well as they can make any meal vegetarian the server stated. I tried the vegetarian burrito bowl it was good! The seafood burrito was something my mom ordered and really enjoyed! The pomegranate martini was also awesome! Truly the only down side to this place was the chips - they were on the stale side. I'll give this place another shot in the future though! read more

Two long hair strands in the salsa, fajitas burned on hot plate as it sat waiting to be brought out still smoking and black. Burrito was ALL rice and almost no chicken. Ended up NOT eating it but saved the burned chicken for the dogs, don't think they liked it much either.. read more

Expresso Martinis were awesome. The roasted salsa is the way to go. I had Pollo Palapas. The Chorizo bacon wrapped Shrimp were incredible. I could of ate 3 dozen. read more

We ended up coming here because the restaurant we went to was closed. I'm so happy we did. The service was great, staff very friendly, and we all enjoyed our food. We'll definitely be back! I had veggie enchiladas, my husband had chicken fajitas, and my daughter had steak fajitas. The portions were big and it all tasted great. My Margarita was on special for 3.99. Also, very cool to have the robot deliver drinks! read more

We've been going here for a few years and we LOVE this place for so many reasons: the owner is always there, food is consistently good, service is also amazing, never had to wait for a table and it's less than 5 min drive from our house. If you want good authentic Mexican food - come to Palapas. Plus they always decorate for every holiday. My favorite restaurant 100% read more

We went here the day they opened and it was not very good. We tried it again and it was fantastic. The menu is huge as are the portions. The service was excellent. Highly recommended. read more

A Cut Above the others. Well worth the extra drive if not your local stop. Wonderful food and service

This place is awesome Me and my girlfriend come here atleast once a month and never disappoints. Great margaritas, great tacos and always great service! read more

Food is pretty good here. For as many Mexican restaurants as Cumming has, few are actually consistently good. I used to eat here once or twice a week but unfortunately they quit brewing tea and just use fountain tea . Being from the South and tea being a staple drink item, they are unfortunately off the list for me. Probably not an issue for most people but just be aware that if you want tea, it'll be out of a fountain. They recently have fully renovated the inside and it's a comfortable environment to be in and has a great vibe. I recommend the lunch steak fajitas or fajita quesadilla. I'd rate the chips and salsa a 4 out of 5 and the jalapeño cheese dip is a mild spicy (but I like it hot so it may be hotter to you). read more

After shopping at Walmart Center, we looked around and found Palapas Bar and Grill. It was conveniently close and had plenty of parking. We were led into the bar area and sat at a booth. We had a good view of the TV monitors. A lady server named Carmela tended to our orders and checked on us. The lovely missus chose Carne Asade Tacos's plate, and I ordered the Chicken filled deep-fried empanadas. The tacos were filled to the tops, and with the special salsa, it was flavorful. I had swapped a taco for an empanada with missus to get a taste. The empanada was nice but very hot and dripped with the frying oil. I was not a big fan of the special dipping sauce and found the salsa for the chips was much more appealing and tasty. The Palapas Bar and Grill had clean restrooms and a Cancun style of background music. I would like to come back to try out the vegetarian offerings on the menu. read more

Pleasantly surprised. Service was great. Food was amazing. Love the 22 ounce margaritas. And the Patio was perfect.

We LOVE Palapas! It's our favorite local Mexican restaurant. They have amazing drinks and food is great. We have always had good service there, both at the bar and at tables. They have a pleasant ambiance for couples but we also see families enjoying the atmosphere as well. It's well worth a visit! read more

One star so it shows I didn't forget. Last time I was in our food was cooked our expectations, service was OK and ambiance just blah.

We love this place! It is one of our favorites by far. The food is delicious and the people are so nice. I definitely recommend.

Had a great chimichanga platter tonight along with their wonderful chips and salsa. They have a decent draft selection here but it is all domestic and Mexican beers - wish they had a few craft beer offerings. Service was great as usual! read more

Food was not very good there was little flavor provile and lots of liquid running out of the tacos. The shredded chicken taco was palatable but the ground beef was like eating sand. The cheese deep was flavorless and the quantity of chips provided was smaller that my grandson's cereal bowl. The service was bad. Our waitress was too busy with a larger table and let us know we were the least important. I usually tip 25% but left just some loose change. She did not follow up on our satisfaction with the orders. Drink glasses went empty for the majority of the meal, and her chilly attitude was sad. This is not the first less than desired service visit here. It is the first with the food being below par. No more throwing good money at this place. Place was clean and the robot delivering from the bar was cute. read more

We stopped in for lunch yesterday and it was sooo good! I had a taco and enchilada and the hamburger filling was very flavorful and tasty. Normally this type of filling is bland no matter where you go, but this was memorable! It elevated a simple meal and I just felt obligated to post about it! Great job on the new recipe and the decor changes too! read more

Standard Mexican food menu. Unique dishes that are my favorites are the empanadas, fried avocado tacos, and the romaine wrap tacos. One of our local go to places. read more
