TACO PALACIO — Restaurant in Grand Prairie

For starters if you haven’t been here let me info you if the process to save you a little time in the future. You will place your order at the food counter and then you will be given a receipt for your order. The receipt must be paid for at the gas station counter where the clerk is located. The clerk will give you a new receipt wish a written number on if that is to be given back to the food counter. At least for me I handed the second receipt at the time of picking up my order which was prepared fairly quickly.

This review will be based over the course of (X amount) days. I went back multiple time to try review more than one meal they offer.

Day 1: I had the “Tex Mex Burger” this meal comes with the fries and a drink for $9.50, it was just over ten dollars after tax. It was double meat burger, ham, avocado, jalapeños, cheese and mayo. The bun was very similar to a brioche bun and it was more than enough for for two. If you like to feel stuffed and eat like it’s your last meal (like me) then this is the perfect amount of food.

Day 2: I had the Big Burrito, it’s served with your choice of meat (Trompo, Carnitas, Fajita, Chicharron, Lengua, Barbacoa, or Chicken) the plate comes with grilled onions and grilled Serrano pepper. The grilled onions were outstanding and the burrito was full of flavor. The burrito cost $8.99. It’s definitely not the biggest burrito I’ve had but it was still more than enough food to satisfy my hunger.

Day 3: I had the Nachos. It’s served loaded with beans cheese your choice of meat, lettuce, tomatoes, jalapeños, a white crumble cheese topping and sour cream. On the side you get two house made hot sauces and two slices of lime. I will say this putting the lime in the nachos were a game changer for real. It added another layer of flavor to the plate that I never knew was missing from nachos. The nacho plate will run you $8.99 and again you will be plenty full and satisfied after this plate.

Day 4: I had the taco plate. At $7.99 I felt like this was a pretty good deal for the plate. You get three tacos your choice of meat, rice, beans, onions, cilantro, grilled onions and grilled pepper. So far everything I’ve ordered was amazing it the taco plate was top notch. Maybe I just wanted tacos that day but they were so full of flavor. I had the Trompo for my meat style. Because I thought I was still going to be hungry I also picked up a crispito which was fried fresh to order. I was very impressed with that. The crispito it was like a chicken and cheese I believe but it was very good. I just don’t want you to expect some type of beef crispito.

Day 5: I had the Torta Cubana and this plate set me back $9.99. The plate came with fries two house made hot sauces. The sign said it came with a drink but I didn’t get one. So I can’t say wether this has changed or I was just overlooked that. I usually don’t drink the beverages that comes with any meal anyway so it was easy for me to forget. I’m sure it does still come with a drink I must have sidetracked the worker/possible owner because I was talking to them. After being there for 5 days straight you get to know someone. Back to the torta it was full of flavor and I would definitely buy that meal again hands down. Like say one if you are a person that like to eat and feel stuffed then this is the plate for you. Again it was more than enough for two people. So if you could split it with a second person that might be the way to go.

Over my experience was an easy 4.8+ I will rate this place a 5 start due to the cleanliness, customer service, quality of food, and promptness for making food fresh as soon as it’s ordered. The person I assumed to be owner or manager was beyond kind. I was shown my meal every time prior to being bagged which I liked. It made me feel like they took pride and the quality of their product. Now the question, will I ever return? Of course! I felt welcomed and never...
