"While visiting family in the Valley, we decided to try out a new Mexican restaurant. We typically go to Tia Rosa's in Mesa, but wanted to explore other options. Based on recommendations from various dining apps, we chose El Palacio. The staff was attentive and helpful, which we appreciated. However, we found the food to be a bit disappointing. The ground beef Chimichanga was unexpected, as we usually prefer shredded beef. The salsa verde lacked flavor and texture, tasting more like mashed tomatillos. Perhaps we had set our expectations too high after our experiences at Tia Rosa's. Overall, for the price, ambiance, and overall experience of a quality neighborhood Mexican restaurant, El Palacio fell short. While it may be suitable for a quick lunch or drink at the bar, it is not a place we would regularly take friends or family."
