What Brennan Tillman doesn't like about El Palenque:
It's cheery, comfortable. The food is good. The staff smiles, friendly. I only gave 3 stars because food was ok, not great and my sweet smiling waitress never brought me napkins, no refills, moved on the slow side. Maybe her feet hurt,idk. ? View all feedback. What User likes about El Palenque:
We were out on a motorcycle ride and at the last minute found this place. Very friendly staff that let me use my limited Spanish to order our food. The food was the BEST Mexican food we have found in Arkansas by far. Being from California we KNOW what good Mexican food should be. I would give them a solid 7 out of 10. The only draw back is they tone down there salsa so we had to ask for a more FUEGO or spicy salsa...... View all feedback.
