Taqueria "La Palapa" Reviews
love the food here. great customer service.
I had an amazing time at La Palapa! The atmosphere was fun, the service was excellent, and the food was full of flavor. Their margaritas are hands down the best in Detroit!
Terrible customer service from the female server with all the cosmetic surgery. She clearly didn’t want to be there or she just hate people. The food is cool but the service makes for a terrible experience.
