El Palenque Mexican Restaurant is a spacious establishment that often draws a large crowd, indicating its popularity. The menu offers a variety of options, including vegetarian-friendly nachos without meat and hearty fajitas with beef, served with tortillas, rice, guacamole, beans, and a choice of soup or salad. Prices are on the higher end, but the serving sizes are generous, with some dishes easily feeding two to three people. The service is generally quick, although the staff's attitude can sometimes be perceived as unfriendly or unaccommodating. The food, however, receives high praise for its delicious flavors and freshness, making it a worthwhile dining experience.
