The Waite staff and servers were outstanding. They were very professional, knowledgeable of the menus and very expeditious. The ambience there is always very friendly and a happy place.

We have been here a few times in the past but my first time laying down a review. I compare this restaurant to a Las Palapas only with a nicer atmosphere and a bit more class. I went with the omelette and wifey ordered the Huevos Motulenos. They are both solid picks. It's hard to overly impress me with an omelette and so to be fair , it was good, not memorable but good. The Motulenos has a picture perfect presentation and since wifey didn't share, would say "Ay Chiwawa", she enjoyed it. Service is always friendly and if you have any issues, the manager will correct it quickly.

My wife got the breast of chicken dinner, it appeared the chicken was pre-cooked with grill marks just for show. My guess purchased pre-cooked grill marks I bet caramel coloring. Mexican rice was white with no Mexican seasoning, no color, no flavor. Grandkids got the albondigas soup, overly salty, watery and thick layer of oil floating on top. They bc also had guacamole that was overly salty. All in all a culinary disaster, I plan never to return

The poor, lovely waitress was juggling a number of tables (about 11 people) ALL by herself, answering the phone, and trying her best to manage. There were NO napkins for us (even in the bathroom- I checked- and half a cup of salsa for a huge basket of chips. For a Friday night in Canyon Lake, I am astonished that the owners of this restaurant have no one helping one waitress!!! We are so disappointed that we will no longer be eating out here again. Shame on them because we have been regular customers.

Texas Tacos knows how to do it right! The tacos are loaded with flavor -- juicy, perfectly seasoned meat, fresh tortillas, and toppings that taste like they were prepped moments before hitting the plate. Whether it's breakfast tacos or street-style classics, every bite feels like true Texas goodness. The portions are generous, the service is friendly, and the whole place has that welcoming local vibe. If you're craving real Texas-style tacos, this spot is a must! read more

Tacos are GREAT. Tortillas are hand made everyday. Salsa roja is amazing, tastes just like my moms. Family owned restaurant just starting off which I really respect. A bunch of lovely nice ladies work there. Menu board is a little hard to read but not too bad! Owner said she's working on it. read more

The food is very good, but the location is not set up for its own popularity…read more We stopped by on a Sunday morning for some breakfast eats. We ordered some tacos and a pancake plate for the kids. The kids devoured the pancakes. The plate came with one pancake, two slices of bacon, and some cubed potatoes. The tacos were good. The chorizo and eggs wasn't too greasy, the flour tortillas were soft enough to wrap its contents and not tear open. The machacado taco was just the right balance of egg and beef. Finally, I had a bite of Liz's papas rancheras taco... spicy so good. The food was good, I wanted to open with the good. Unfortunately, the location is better as a takeout/pickup place than a dine in. The inside of the restaurant had maybe three tables for customers or folks waiting for their orders. When we were there on Sunday morning, the staff working the counter was the one working the counter. There's plenty of parking outside, more than the space inside. A lot of folks were there to pick up their phoned in orders. So, my recommendation would be to order the food before getting there and enjoy it elsewhere. If you are in the area, this place is open for business on Sunday mornings and they will have your food ready to go... when you're on the go.

My ex was obsessed with the carne asada tacos and those massive burritos. I stuck to the breakfast tacos: potato, egg & cheese, and nopales, beans & cheese on corn. We both agreed the dark roja salsa was better than the bright roja. The verde was pretty solid too. The setup's simple: a little food truck with a few covered tables, some beautiful rose bushes, and music that's usually a bit too loud--probably trying to compete with the endless roar of 281 traffic, which is also too loud. Would I love to see the space a little more jazzed up? Sure. But there's also something sacred about a place that keeps the hipsters away. They prefer when you call your order in ahead of time--and honestly, that worked best for us. But even when we ordered on the spot, there was never much of a wait to order or for the food. It's all made to order, as it should be. All in all? Solid little spot. It's not trying to impress you--it's just trying to feed you good tacos.

When I was done eating, I saw the knife and fork marks on the foamed plate (see photos). I immediately informed and show my wife my plate and asked her "is this safe to eat?" She looked at me a surprised looked and I told her, are we eating small particles of foam/plastic" when we cut our food and eat it? Her eyes opened wider and said "OMG! I think we are!". Just want to warn all customers that you may be risking your health by consuming Taco Palenque's food served on these cheap, easy to break, foamed plates. And you may be digesting these plastic in your body! Note to Taco Palenque-What test have your venue done that these new plates are safe to consume/digest with your food? Who made the decision to changed from their paper-like plate to foamed plate? Not safe!
