My wife and I went with a friend of the family and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the restaurant…read more The vibe felt very much like a chain restaurant vibe, but the food tasted authentic. The restaurant itself was really clean despite the lunch rush just having gone through. So we were really impressed with the tables being kept up after the lunch rush and the chairs were comfortable as well. The prices are fair especially with how good the food is. Even our family friend who is notoriously picky was impressed by the food. One downside was that it was difficult to understand the lady behind the counter however we were able to order by pointing to what we wanted. One of the meals we got we aren't sure exactly what it was, as we pointed to something someone else had gotten. Our friend got the chicken quesadilla and she said it was really good. The only thing that was a little disappointing was the guacamole. It was a bit thin and bland. We went based on a recommendation of a coworker who said they had three tacos for $9.99 as part of a meal and they said they were so good and it was a really great value which is why we went there. We definitely weren't disappointed and plan on returning.

A small eatery with a few tables and chairs and a single video game on the wall. The gentleman taking our orders was kind and friendly. We placed our order and paid, our food was ready in under ten minutes and brought to our table. These are very good tacos here. Inexpensive and tasty. Four tacos total, two each Carnitas and Al Pastor. Both style true to type and very good with diced onions and cilantro with a wedge of lime. Good flavor and textures. A decent meal. There are several good taco places in town and this is one of the better ones. Good quality and a fair value. 4 Stars worth a visit and support 01208

I ordered a combo which allowed me to try multiple things on the menu. I tried tacos with carne asada and a sope with carne asada. Not only were both items very delicious, but it was served fresh with your usual toppings. I also tried their tasty Jamaica juice, which is hibiscus, and I've heard many good things about their horchata. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, and it makes you feel as if you're eating at an authentic Mexican restaurant. It's a must try for a casual lunch, or dinner with friends.

The interior was nicely decorated and the marachi style music in the back ground made it perfect for conversation. First, our server Olga, was fantastic, she helped us through the menu based on what we were saying about our likes. I call that service! One burrito had almost everything my wife wanted, she suggested another, with a slight substitution. And the Burrito Amigo was a hit. She ordered it with steak, which was tender and flavotful. I had the Taquitos Tipicos, great choice, I wish it came with beans and rice instead of all rice- but I didn't ask. Still very flavorful and done perfect. The pico was outstanding, I can't do a lot of spice, the pico was mild with all the flavors coming through, not just heat. My wife loved the margarittas, and you can't go wrong with cold Dos Equis. Sopapillas for desert topped the evening. I can't say enough about the service and attention, not over bearing, but they check frequently. I think very reasonably priced especially considering the service. Give them a try, Palenque will now be our go to Mexican when we're in town.

When I was younger, so much younger than today, I traveled internationally for a Fortune 500 company for over 12 years. In those travels I spent over a year in Mexico, because it was a problem place, to do business in any way - to protect inventory (we hired armed guards to patrol behind fenced areas, 24/7), to collect accounts receivable, especially from the Federal and State governments, to operate within the guidelines of the SEC! The good part was to sample food I had no idea existed. I had birria for the first time in 1979 in Guadalajara - stew only, no tacos at the time; carbito; and I had Pozole Verde for the first time, with pork, amazing dish! The version of pozole verde served here is very good, but does not have quite the layers of flavor this dish is famous for, like the ones I've sampled at Taqueria Los Juanes, El Camino Real, and Paisano El Tacos - all in Winston. Still it is a dish worth having a go at! I topped the relatively thin stew with cheese, chopped white onion, chicharrones, and avocado. In addition, I squeezed on lime juice and added hot sauce. All of this added additional flavors as well as a variety of textures. I wish there had been cabbage and cilantro to add as well. I tried the Quesabirria tacos and found them to be very nice - well filled and flavorful. I'm glad I tried the food here, and if in the area I'd stop in, but I would not consider this a destination spot.

She looked up my phone number and said it was $39 and some change. I said you must have the wrong order pulled up. You told me it was "$19.20" she said the system wasn't updating.

Wife asked if they had Miller Lite on tap, her response- I don't know" and just stood there. She went in and yes they do, I ordered a Red Oak, she left and a guy came put, np Red Oak. We wan't some Pico de Gallo, she thought they had some but no idea of the price, she guessed around $2.99. The pico was purple onion, some cilantro, a few pieces of tomato, prettu disappointing. If this was our first vist, we would not go back. The manager being on the ball, to me, is commendable. Hence 3 star, otherwise it would have been 1 star. So we'll give Fridas another shot, fingers crossed it goes better.
