We went to get a late lunch, or early dinner you could say. It was just my partner and I at around 4:30 on a Saturday and we where able to just go right in without any wait.
The whole staff was really friendly and they started us off with some nachos and sauces. We got our drinks really fast as well and then they were very attentive when it came to taking our order.
The food was very authentic and full of flavor, as well as the portions, they were big and filling.
I would definitely recommend coming here for good Mexican food.
We got 2 plates, 2 aguas frescas and a dessert to-go. It all ended up being around $70 dollars without a tip.

I had a great experience dining here, and what stood out most was the exceptional service. Nearly every server who passed by our table stopped to ask if we needed drink refills or more chips—attentive without ever feeling overbearing. The turnaround time from placing our order to receiving our entrees was impressively fast—almost instant.
The food itself was flavorful and well-portioned—not too heavy, but still satisfying. Every dish we tried was fresh and tasty, with just the right amount of seasoning and heat.
The only heads-up I’d offer is about the noise level. The atmosphere is high-energy and festive, and if there’s a birthday or group celebration happening (which there often is), it can get very loud. Conversation might be tough if you’re looking for a quiet dinner.
That said, if you’re in the mood for great food, warm service, and a fun, upbeat vibe—this spot delivers. I’d definitely come back.

Pretty decent place serving good authentic Mexican food. They had fresh guacamole made right in front of you in your table. The drinks here were quite fancy and creative options were available.
The only unsatisfactory part of our visit was the time taken for service. The restaurant was not even much crowded, and it took like 45 mins to get food. The servers were not much attentive to the customers.

Family and kid friendly. Fast service and some of the best waitstaff. Food was excellent. My only complaint would be the music was too loud to hold a conversation.

Discovered this place about 3 years ago when we moved to Hilltop down the street. Service is UNMATCHED. Food is UNMATCHED. We are regulars here and refuse to go to another mexican restaurant. The servers are truly so friendly and accommodating. The quality of the food is genuinely perfect. I’ve never had a bad experience here. I have been to a couple of their other locations, and this one remains top tier. 5000/5 stars! P.S. – Please don’t take away the Las Palmas House Special on the “Limited Time” menu! It is my favorite!!!

The service was excellent and the restaurant was clean and inviting. I was not a fan of the food, which was salty and swimming in grease mixed with sauce. The rice lacked flavor altogether— so maybe the chef just had an off day. I would be willing to try them again.

We had dinner here and overall, it was an amazing experience! The service was fantastic—super friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was lively, making it a great place to enjoy a meal. However, I did have a little issue with the taco I ordered; it was a bit too salty for my taste, and I couldn’t finish it. But apart from that, everything else was delicious, and I definitely recommend giving it a try!
