Ordered a burrito on the menu which didn’t say it had guacamole, when the order came I mentioned to the waitress that I had an avocado allergy, the restaurant staff quickly remade a new burrito for me without hesitation. Exceptional service and very good.

This restaurant was at the top of their game when I went there for lunch. The chicken mole was excellent as were the rice and beans that came with it and the spicy salsas too. One of the better Mexican meals I’ve had in San Rafael in a long time. Highly recommend stopping in..
February 2025
I returned to El Palmar with my family after over a decade and was pleasantly surprised by the renovations—the restaurant looks better than ever. The staff was incredibly kind and provided exceptional service. I ordered my usual carne asada burrito with cheese, and it tasted just as amazing as I remembered. El Palmar truly has the best burritos of any Mexican restaurant I’ve been to. A hidden gem with great food and service—I’ll definitely be back!
