Amazing food. Amazing flavor. Authentic Mexican food. We’re from Chicago and in town for a funeral. We have a puppy with us and one of us was gonna wait in the car while the other ate and Daniel H. Was very accommodating to us. If you’re visiting from out of town definitely come here. Amazing staff. Daniel H is an amazing person you guys have working for you. Loved everything about the place!

Overall way better than we expected. We weren’t going to come try it out since our last experience in the mcallen one was not good. But we’re glad we gave this one a chance and we loved it ! I got the daily special for $15.
Will definitely be coming back!

If you’re in Brownsville and you haven’t been to Palenque Grill yet, let me be the one to tell you: go. I walked in and immediately felt like I was about to have a great meal service was sharp, professional, and genuinely welcoming from the start.

They kicked off the experience with fresh chips and frijoles fritos that had this smooth, rich flavor with what tasted like a touch of chorizo. Not your average “bean dip” this was comfort food with personality. And then the salsa lineup? Four different flavors that each brought something different to the table: the bold molcajete-style salsa, a smooth avocado salsa, bright pico de gallo, and a red salsa with just the right punch. Honestly, it felt like a whole tasting flight before the meal even started.

The chicken fajitas came out sizzling and beautifully plated. Perfectly seasoned, juicy, and paired with grilled onions, peppers, fresh guacamole, and a side of white rice that balanced everything out. It looked good, and it tasted even better.

The restaurant itself is clean, modern, and comfortable,great lighting, great vibe, and you can tell they take pride in every detail, from the presentation to the service.

Overall, this was an exceptional dining experience. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. Highly recommend.
