“The Taco Bell closes to my home is on Baltimore Pike. There party supreme box is all I ever really grab & a bowl. Last week I went threw drive threw at Taco Bell & the party box was a mess. Every Taco was burned & stuck 2 the wrapping paper. The taco itself we're a) cold & plain messy. The time I went Taco bell B4 this last time last week was about 2 months ago. So I spent $48. I was asked 2 move up & someone will bring out my order 2 me. Well someone did bring out a order but when I got home it wasn't my order. I tryed calling but no phone in Taco bell I guess. By the time I drove all the way back 2 get my order I paid $48 bucks for. They were closed. 10:pm they close. But it was only 9:45 pm. Imagine that. My 2 peeps were very hungry & so I said u guys can eat whatever the taco employee bagged up & handed me. Idk what it was but it was also gross losing & cold... Etc... Etc... I didn't go bak 2 that Taco Bell since last week. I'm done w fast food after feeling that food in my stomach for days. At a time. I'm a lil bit older now. So no more fast foods. I wanna be healthy, feel healthy, eat healthy, look healthy w/ a healthy body my“

Margaritas were made and did not disappoint us. Noelia our server was amazing. Very kind and friendly as well as accommodating at all times with a smile. She even saw us leaving and made sure to say goodbye and so did the hostess. We were also happy to get to see the Mgr before she got off for the night and she remembered us from our very first visit. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“los tacos y la quesabirri“

“I went to Palenque with my family today, 2 young kids and my two in laws who are a bit older. Please note that my Chinese in laws aren’t the most adventurous when it comes to food, but we all loved the food! We ordered a Mole Poblano, Al Pastor, Beef Tongue and Fish tacos, and a Guacamole. Portion sizes were great, all the meats and ingredients were cooked impeccably and authentically. I particularly loved the Mole, the sauce was rich and flavourful, and its consistency was smooth and creamy like the best out there. Will definitely love to come back again some day! Highly recommended.“

“Tried here for the first time tonight and it was delicious! We will definitely be ordering from here again!“

“My friend and I came here for a quick lunch on a Sunday. No crowd, just a few people. It was definitely a divey kind of place because it was really dark in the space. We had to find a table near a light to see! We shared the guacamole which was delicious and addicting. I got the mahi mahi tacos and those might be the best Mahi tacos I’ve had in a while. So flavorful and they looked beautiful. I’d definitely go back to try some of their other dishes!“

“We came here for the gluten free churros as we have never found any anywhere else, figured this could be a once in a lifetime find. It was happy hour so we had drinks and tacos too! Loved the beef barbacoa toco. This restaurant is 100% gluten free so no chance of cross contamination. Staff is very friendly in this light and airy establishment.“

“Su servicio y autentidad en su servicio De comida para todos los gustos“

“This was my second time here. I went a couple of months ago and I ordered the same type of tacos (cauliflower). The tacos this time were much more flavourful, had more sauce/seasonings. I also had the same margarita and it was also much improved.

I was there with a party of 8. Service was great and one of our party was running late. We weren’t rushed and were asked if we wanted to wait to order food, which I really appreciated.

Our party included meat eaters, vegetarians, and gluten free (celiac, not by choice). There were multiple choices for everyone. Everyone thought their meals were really good - and this is a crowd that frequents Mexican restaurants.

I have celiac disease and can tell within 30 minutes whether or not I got exposed to gluten. The server was very knowledgeable about gluten free options, from drinks to the food. I was assured that what I ordered had no cross contamination and they don’t put other items in the fryer that they use for tortilla chips. I had heard that they had stopped doing this a few months ago from an online review - but seems like they have a dedicated fryer for their chips again. I did not have a reaction!

The rooftop deck is beautiful and just a wonderful atmosphere. The entire restaurant though is thoughtfully decorated and the murals are gorgeous. Also really thrilled about supporting a local who clearly put a lot of thought into opening a restaurant here in East Falls and making it such a wonderful experience.“
