As far as Mexican paleterias go, there are few that can beat out Palacana in quality, service, or variety. This is true even for places in Mexico. It’s consistently amazing and it’s always the go to paleteria for anyone I know. There are many like it but none that are definitely better.

Palacana is THE place to go for authentic Mexican food at Legends Outlets! They have a huge menu with all kinds of delicious Mexican dishes.
Everyone was super friendly, which is always a plus. We were a pretty large group, but they served us really quickly even though it was busy. I was really impressed with how efficient they were!
I loved the two girls in the counter, they were great!
I'll definitely be coming back every time I visit Legends...

Need an order here sign..when you walk in, the setup is so confusing. Esp when there's people standing all over along the counter. You have no clue where to go to start ordering your food.
