Palenque Grill McAllen - McAllen (TX)

1 /5 Amanda De Leon: I first ate Palenque Grill in San Antonio and the Al Pastor tacos were amazing. So tender and juicy. The pineapples were marinated and full of flavor. I was happy to see there was a location in McAllen. The experience was night and day. I ordered the same tacos, but the meat was dry, the corn tortillas were greasy and chewy, the pineapples were tough as if it were cut directly from the rind. Ive eaten at the Mcallen location twice, but each experience solidified it pales greatly to its San Antonio branch. Waste of money.

5 /5 Hinovations Art Gallery: This is our new favorite place. We have been here several times and its always delicious. We have ordered their specialty lemonades, cucumber, Jamaica and guava, and they are so refreshing. This last time I had Puntas de bistec and my husband had Enmoladas. The staff is so courteous and attentive. This is a wonderful space for family meals and celebrations.

5 /5 Celina Cisneros: We took our Godson to celebrate his birthday this evening, and we had a wonderful experience. The food was great, and the service was excellent. Fernando was prompt, kind and attentive. In fact, there wasn’t a worker there that was not nice. Will definitely visit again.

5 /5 Edith Carrillo: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 Review Every time I visit Palenque Grill, I always ask to sit in Eduardo’s section (we call him Lalo) because he is truly the BEST waiter there. From the moment you sit down, Eduardo is welcoming, friendly, and so attentive. He checks on us regularly without ever being intrusive, always makes sure our drinks are refilled, and goes out of his way to be helpful and kind. You can tell he genuinely cares about his customers and takes real pride in his work. He remembers faces, gives great menu recommendations, and treats everyone with respect and warmth. Because of Eduardo, Palenque Grill has become one of my favorite places to eat — the service he gives is consistently amazing every single time. If you visit, definitely ask for Eduardo (Lalo). Hands down the best waiter I’ve had anywhere. He truly deserves recognition for the outstanding service he provides!
