Taco Palenque Mission

The service and atmosphere are good and the atmosphere is family-friendly
Authentic Mexican food is served here, and it is very good
Finally, kids area. It's not very common in The Valley

Taco Palenque is the BEST Mexican food in the valley, hands down. Their condiments bar and tips are amazing. The beef is always tender.it is the FIRST restaurant we go to whenever we return to the RGV.

Great food! We go here every time we are in town visiting my brother in law and his wife.

I still remember when one of the first Taco P opened on 10th street in McAllen a few years back. The flavor is exactly the same after all these years and that's a good thing.

I've been ordering nothing but a pair of Tacos Reynosa in my recent visits, I prefer corn tortilla rather than flour. They're prepared with grilled onions and cilantro, a taco's best friends. The tenderness of the fajita is spot on, and the grill flavor is just phenomenal. They're very generous with the meat, one taco is good for most people, not for me though. The tortilla was soft and firm at the same time, just enough so it won't break. It had a good flavor to it, just a nice very mild corn taste not too overpowering.

Their salsa offerings are great, some very spicy for people like me and some very mild as well, the "Pico de Gallo" is my favorite. The red sauce is the most spicy, go easy on that one. I like that they have a small chips and salsa bar, you can help yourself with as much as you want.

The only thing I don't like is the price, four tacos for $17 is just way too expensive. If not for the price I'd be here more often. They have a great menu and do recommend people to stop by.

I have gone many times and consistently like the food. I will say sometimes presentation is better on certain days but taste is always good. I either get carne asada street tacos or a chicken quesadilla. I usually always ordered refried beans and chips to dip on the side. I love their Pico and their mild salsa. During covid they give you small cups. I miss the buffet of toppings and salsas. Overall I eat here very often and will consistently come back.

Ordered delivery of the Parrilladas.
I was craving their fajitas.
They delivered 20 minutes early and everything was absolutely delicious.
I highly recommend Taco Palenque.

We are visiting from out of town and I headed out from the hotel in search of good coffee and breakfast tacos. The lady at the coffee shop recommended this place. I ordered two potato & chorizo and two bean & chorizo tacos. I will say the tortillas & beans were very good, but this picture is a representation of the chorizo in the tacos. Seriously? I am giving two stars for the great tortillas, the yummy refried beans and really good service. Still irked about the swine sausage stinginess.

I placed a pick-up order on 6-18-19 and received an email saying the order was placed. I received a text message saying when the order was going to be ready. My credit card was charged. I arrived to Taco Palenque and they had no record of the order and had no idea how to even find it. Then they claimed that they didn't have a password to get the order.

The young man behind the counter did a great job helping me get my order given the severe limitations they have with this app.

The order was completed relatively quickly. The food was okay. The cilantro was expired. The quesadilla was just a whole bunch of cheese with little chicken and a whole lot of no flavor.

I contacted Yelp and inquired about the breakdown with this order. They were no help but happily cancelled the order. I paid the restaurant directly so they would get paid for helping me fulfill the order.

I'm just sorry i didn't get the name of the young man who helped me so I could give him credit. That was probably the only good experience.

If they had better personal in the early morning, I would recommend. But waiting 10-15 mins for to breakfast tacos that are already pre made pretty much, not good. 3 stars cause the food is good.

Love this place! Good Tex Mex food who specializes in grilled food but have wide variety. Tortillas made by hand, homemade salsas and refrescos and aguas Mexicanas. Best part it has a playground for the kids! No more being stuck at a burger place!
