Let's start with the service. Our server was fantastic…read more Ambiance, it feels a bit outdated and those animal busts hanging on the wall need to be dusted off. The food I can only recommend the fajitas, my wife had molcajete and the serving is bigger than Agaves. My children ordered the nachos. Sorry that yellow cheese was horrible and we had to go elsewhere for them. Try it out and judge for yourself.

I first tried El Palmar because it had some of the best ratings on DoorDash. My dine-in experiences…read morewere also very pleasant. I usually order the Supreme Burrito. Idk what it is, but the burritos here are stellar and so moist and tasty. Hands down, the best burritos in Merced. El Palmar was also one of the first places to offer Birria in Merced. I have always enjoyed their Birria Tacos and would highly recommend. They also have Birria ramen too if you'd like to try it. The restaurant is pretty clean and has plenty of parking. If not, you can go park in the Chevron area next door. When dining in, they'll give you some chips and salsa. They do have beer available for dine-in. They don't have a self-serve salsa bar so you'll have to ask the cashier for all of your condiments (salsa, lime, etc). This is my favorite Mexican joint and has never let me down! Come enjoy!

The service was so slow and we were the only ones there that day…read more In the couple of times I been there. The prices are high for the restaurant. Ordered a couple of the drinks and they were good. The food not so much. Ordered; the coconut shrimp so disappointing. 1/5 Bland Ceviche samplers 2/5. The wings were ok. 3/5 The best thing was the camarones ala plancha nothing out of the ordinary. But the best thing the had. Not sure if I want to be back. I believe it's to expensive for what it is.

Me and my family had dinner here recently and this place seems like a very popular spot. As soon as…read morewe walked in we were greeted with a friendly face and was seated. It's not a very big restaurant, but when you walk in it seems there might be a private room immediately on the right side of entry, unless it's just a small area to the restrooms. Almost all the tables were taken, but these ladies hustled! As soon as we ordered the service was fast and they did not miss a beat. As soon as my son sipped his last drink, here comes the lady with another drink. I was so impressed with the service here. I watched other tables and she was on top of those tables too! The menu has so much to choose from that I didn't know what to get. I ended up getting a shrimp plate and I was sooo full that I didn't finish my food. They serve pretty good size portions here that I was anticipating eating all my food because I was hungry, but they came out with this big oval sized plate. I would love to come again. Service was amazing, it seems like a family owned business and they are super friendly and welcoming here. If you love Mexican food and you're from this are and don't know where to go, check this place out next time!

I came here solely for Chilaquiles. My in-laws mentioned how delicious they were and I had to come…read moretry them. We walked in and even though it's small, most of the tables were full. You know the food's gonna be good when there are Mexican grandmas eating breakfast there. We were brought chips with three different types of salsa. All were good but just different. The chips were amazing. Warm and crunchy. Our meals came out quickly and the chilaquiles were perfect: great sauce, the toppings were just right, the chips were still crunchy and not soggy. The beans were good. I do not speak on rice because I just don't love any Spanish rice. Overall, an excellent meal. We will be back.

Order: Shrimp Burrito with Carne Asada it came with chips and 3 different salsas…read more This was an outstanding burrito! I cannot express how good everything really was from top to bottom on the burrito. Carne asada was light, not chewy, seasoned well enough. Shrimp tasted like it was just freshly cooked. Tortilla was super thin and light, but held surprisingly well. Rice, which I often hate, was excellent. The Smokey chipotle sauce that comes with it was outstanding! On top of that all of their chips are VERY good. Salas had to of been made that day. They were spicy and exactly what I had hoped for in a salsa. Service was solid, my burrito was piping hot. I'd consider this place to be much more like a hole in the wall type business. They aren't big on the thrills, but man they deliver on the food. Burrito: 8.6/10 DEFINITELY will be back!

Another first! Been looking at this place for a while now. Decided to check it out today. Glad we…read moredid. Had some friends come as well. The shrimp on the appetizer menu were Bomb AF!

Located in a small shopping complex with plenty of parking, so it's a little hard to pass up if you're not familiar with the area! We've started coming here since we found out, the mariscos and drinks are amazing, the quality and portion sizes of the dishes are definitely work the price! The michelada's are thirst quenching, huge, and tasty! We will definitely be coming back regularly!

Oh. My. GOD. This…read moremariscos spot is an absolute gem! The portion size compared to the price is INSANE. You get a serious amount of food -- the tostadas are loaded, and the cocktail? Packed to the top. No skimping here at all. The flavor was completely on point and everything tasted so fresh. It honestly felt like I was in Mexico eating seafood right off the coast. Every bite was bright, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. If you're craving authentic, fresh mariscos with generous portions, this is the spot. 10/10 -- I'll definitely be back!
