Taco Palenque Edinburg Reviews
Every visit to Taco Palenque is consistently a great experience, but Mary truly makes it exceptional. She is always incredibly attentive, welcoming, and goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. Her warm attitude and genuine care for customers never go unnoticed. It’s rare to find someone who provides such consistently outstanding service, and Mary does it effortlessly every time. The food is always delicious, but the service, especially from Mary, is what keeps us coming back. Thank you for always making us feel so well taken care of!
Excellent place to eat at. Very clean, great service and very professional and friendly staff! Highly recommended!
Food is good and atmosphere is good. Double check when you order to go, incorrect items or items are missing sometimes. I had extra flour tortillas instead of the quesadillas I ordered.
Just left at 8:00 PM and had an absolutely amazing experience! The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food was outstanding. I especially loved the Pirata Tacos it's a must try they were a highlight! Definitely five stars.
This is the best drive thru mexican food you can find! Great value, great food and generous portions (the rice and beans sides served with the plates are pretty small though). I love all the fresh veggies and salsa at their salsa bar. The street tacos, barbacoa and green chicken enchiladas are all my favorites.
Made a big order and they got the order right. The manager Emanuel helped me carry out the bags to the car. He offered delivery service next time. And handed me his business card. Very professional. Food is always good at taco palenque.
I was a wee bit drunk when I went but the food was amazing. I don’t know if it was amazing because I was drunk or because it actually is amazing. I’ll have to go when I’m sober to give another shot.
Man the young man at the counter helped me out for my first time being there. The Green Chile Enchiladas was fire. He told me to get the avocado sauce and it was amazing on the food. Im live in indiana and from Houston and there wasnt none of these places there while growing up . I tell ya what , when I come back through I'll be back . A1 food
My favorite tacos in the rgv, we always come here when we’re visiting family. The food is amazing, and the taco spread for 2, will feed 3 or 4. Fast, friendly service, food served fresh off the grill and hot 🔥 The horchata is delicious too! This will always be my go to place for tacos in the valley 👌🏼
Food is always great but today the service was EXCELLENT. A young man named Jiro was literally the hardest working employee, he never stopped. He did it all: swept, cleaned, restocked, took orders …
Just love their food here. Can't go wrong with this place for Mexican fast food. Fresh ingredients and open all night.
Today I went to eat dinner with some friends the drive thru cashier was so friendly and she repeated the order so nice !! Excellent service !! ✨⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When we arrived there was not much room as it was pretty busy.. but the service great and fast..... the atmosphere wasn't to bad as it was a little loud but not to loud.... I had the panchos and they were not bad, had a good amount of cheese and meat would more than likely order again... my kids had a chicken taco and the fideo and seemed to enjoy very much as well.

Very mid but I'm from Houston we have better food Potato's where hard meat was nasty.
I love the food but the drive thru set up is so stupid. It makes no sense to have 2 lanes filled with cars and then give the people last in line their food first when we literally cant leave and are stuck waiting and holding up every one else. It is so inefficient. Please fix this issue. This is wasting everyones time
Ist time walking in here. The cashier taking our order was abrupt and not friendly. She wasn't rude by any means, she just wasn't welcoming if that makes sense. The charo beans were superb! Piping hot and delicious 😋. The complimentary chips were stale, but the green sauce was very good 👍. The fajitas were ok but a little on the dry side. The tortillias were nothing to right home about. The gentleman cleaning the tables was very friendly and courteous.
The food was ok, but the prices were out of this world! 123.00 for a family of 4, with out tip, yikes!

I've been a big fan of Taco Palenque for a long time, i have tried most of their plates and combos, usually when I'm out traveling for work i stop by to get a combo #2, its a small meal but good for the price. Today i stopped by again while traveling for work, i thought about getting the Fajita plate, i didn't mind paying extra because its a good portion, but since I have to drive and eat, i can't make myself tacos, so i opted instead for the Combo #1, i paid $15 and change thinking the tacos were going to be bigger with more meat and would suffice my hunger, boy was i wrong. I came to find out it had less meat than the Combo #2 which is cheaper. I was very disappointed because of what i had to pay, not to mention 10mins later i was hungry again and had to spend another $15 to buy food elsewhere. I hope this review comes helpful to someone, or so management can address the issue because for the price, anyone would expect more.. by the way, drive thru girl who was handing out the orders would not say a single word, just hand you your order and walk off..
If I could leave zero stars I would. This is my first review EVER! I've had enough! It is not the first time they get my order wrong, most times I'd be able to ignore it because it's been little thin…

I ordered a ceaser salad with fajita the vegetables old and disgusting the lettuce was browning and the more you dig in the bottle the browner the lettuce is sorry it’s not worth it
Terrible customer service. I placed a mobile order with a pickup time of 8:30 PM and arrived around 8:15–8:20, knowing I was early and fully expecting to wait. I showed the cashier my order, but he said he couldn’t find it. I was able to pull it up myself, yet instead of helping, he dismissed me and went back to what he was doing. I waited until almost 8:40–8:45 PM, and no one checked on me. During that time, employees were walking around on their phones, and multiple managers walked right past me, clearly seeing me waiting, yet no one acknowledged me I eventually left without my food and called to cancel the order. The first call rang with no answer. The second time, someone answered with an attitude, said they were “looking for a manager,” and then left me on hold for about five minutes — even though the restaurant wasn’t busy at all. This isn’t about wait time. It’s about the lack of professionalism, communication, and basic customer care. Completely ridiculous experience.
I didn't enjoy paying $22 for a small fajita plate and drink. Very little beef and my drink had an ice cube with a fly Frozen in it. Not an enjoyable experience. Then the manager made a face instead of doing the right thing To fix their problems. This is an example how Companies grow Faster than they can their own Maintain Quality and Safety standards.
First time going to this place, it was a total let down!! Ordered the enchiladas and cheese was a bit bitter, tortilla was cold and stale, not to mention the sides were so badly rationed, like its more plate than food, absolutely dreadful!
I ordered a number one meal with chicken fajita instead of beef fajita and i asked for rice instead of the fideo and i paid the difference to get my order wrong. I got fideo instead of my rice and my tacos were all sloppy and the tortilla wasnt throughly cooked. I tried calling and i got no answer.
I ordered a Combination Matamoros Tacos with a Video side Large drink and 1 single fajita quesadilla. All I got was the drink, quesadilla and a STACK of FLOUR TACO SHELLS and ZERO MEAT!!! FOR 20 dollars. #651 at 1619. So if I could rate this -5 I would after 10 minutes wait for my food to arrive only to get to my hotel room and find 95% of my food Missing In Action!!!
I like Taco Palenque but this location really sucks. The beans are extremely watered down and the place is always dirty! The employees have horrible attitudes too. The flour tortillas taste like glue. Don’t recommend this location.
I stopped by this morning and ordered a chicken taco, but was extremely disappointed to receive scraps of old chicken instead of a proper serving. What made this worse is that the person who prepared it yocelyn a (Cashier) was already told not to serve food like that to me, yet still chose to do so. The manager was already making my order fresh, which I appreciate. However, the issue here lies solely with yocelyn. Her actions felt intentional and unfair, especially given that I recognized her and know she was aware of what she was doing. This kind of behavior is unacceptable and reflects poorly on the standards of the restaurant. Something needs to be done to ensure that all customers are treated fairly and served quality food especially when the staff (yocelyn) is knowingly making poor choices. Very disappointing experience.i repeat this is not the managers fault she did this behind his back

Taco Palenque in Edinburg: More Than Just Tacos, It's an Experience
There are some spots in Edinburg that just feel like home, and for many of us, Taco Palenque is definitely one of them. You know the kind of place – where the aroma of grilled meat and fresh tortillas just hits different. It’s a local institution that consistently draws a crowd, and for good reason. Step inside, and you'll often find a lively buzz. It can get pretty busy, especially during peak hours, but don't let that deter you. Despite the hustle, the service is often remarkably fast and g
