Get the sopa del mar or albondigas if you like homemade soup! Their bean dip is actually really good, it's like the stuff you get from grandma's kitchen (i.e. the kind w delicious pork fat!)- John SmithAugust 26, 2013Come enjoy and our homemade Mexican food that generations have been enjoying for over 30 years.

Bryan LeearApril 13, 2011When at El Palacio make sure to get the burritos. All of the ingredients are so fresh including the salsa and chips! This is the perfect Mexican style restaurant that does not have a generic taste.
Love the salsa bar, craft and local beer selection and menu with variety.
Some of the BEST craft beer in the area. 8 Arizona beers pouring right now. That's truly noteworthy- Roy was an amazing server. Very attentive, knows the menu, gave great recommendations & friendly!
Trevor SchraderJune 26, 2013Can't beat the taco Tuesday deals and they have 2$ pints of Mexican draft beer!
Teresa Weaver MilnerAugust 19, 2013Ground beef enchilada is good. Salsa is great. Sweet surprise dessert is yummy!
David StevensSeptember 11, 2011If you like hot salsa, You will love their secret recipe hot sauce, and you can buy it by the pint!
Service is slow most of the time...but the Taco Tuesday is good. So if you go and don't expect fast service you will have a nice time.
Michelle SMarch 7, 2016Awful! Chicken tortilla soup had no flavor and was a clear broth. Salsa tasted like tomato sauce with cilantro. The only edible items were the tortilla chips and beans. Would never eat here again.
- Michael MendezOctober 5, 2016If the staff is this swamped on a Tuesday.. what do they do on weekends??
Anthony MorenoApril 11, 201128 inch long, 5lb burrito...nough said. One of the best mexican places ive been.
Gus DAugust 12, 2012Chips, salsa and bean dip are average. The queso appetizer was very greasy, el padrino burrito was also greasy. Price was ok, $34 for 1 app, 1 entree, 1 beer and 1 margarita, but the food was terrible
- Michelle SMarch 7, 2016Worst "mexican" I've ever had. "Empanada" was a soggy flour tortilla with carrots and onions. Tamale was so dry it could kill you. Enchiladas had no flavor.
JJantzenMarch 3, 2013Used to be a good place but portion sizes have shrunk...especially the tacos, very little meat.
Will SanchezAugust 19, 2012Staff was friendly, food is... Average or maybe a tad just below that. Had the steak fajita salad... Eh....
Great chips and salsa! Usually very poor service though.
Keaton TeagueNovember 17, 2012Food is mediocre. Was kinda gold when I got it. Service wasn't that great either.
Angelica MerinoOctober 24, 2011Food was bland, as stated by others. Wasn't satisfied at all. Chips were burnt an left a weird unpleasant aftertaste.
Mitch OttoAugust 27, 2011God was average. Taste was a bit bland. Service was slow. Staff was to apologetic.
John BAugust 14, 2011Cold food, didn't check if everything was ok, slow on water refills. Disappointed.
Get your burrito picante style if you like a little spice!
