A very delicioso carne asada burrito with chips on the side, and two different salsas.
René R.

El Tacolgado is another little gem to their number of restaurants here in Palm Springs. As small as it is, it's perfect and their service is great, friendly, where you don't feel like just a number. This addition to their restaurant family serves delicious and authentic food. As expensive as everything is today, they don't skimp on their food or quality, which makes great business sense. I ordered a carne asada burrito and they serve chips on the side. The small salsa bar is another must-try.

Fish tacos

I heard about this new sister restaurant when I had brunch at El Patio and decided to go for lunch the next day. Got the fried fish tacos and a draft beer. The tacos were great and had a nice crunch to it. A cold beer was the perfect pairing. It's a cute new spot that is perfect for a quick bit. Casual feel but friendly service made for an awesome experience. Had a view of the mountains from my seat. Will be back to try other tacos!

Amazing food with great quality and flavor. Service was friendly and timely. Came with a…read morereservation and there was indoor and outdoor seating. It does get full so reservations is the way to go. Good beer, cocktail, marg, taquila menu. Got the Viaje beer which was a stronger tasting lager. 1. Chips salsa Guac - good small spice in the dips. Not too much salt on the chips. Good quality 2. Street corn - definitely comfort food as listed and it was flavorful and comes out hot on a skillet 3. Shrimp tacos - 3 shrimp in each taco. I like that it comes simple with the chipotle aioli on the side and beans rice avocado on the side. Good flavor and not too salty again. Overall a great dinner and if I lived in the area, I would be back easily!

I ordered the shrimp tacos, and they did not disappoint--very flavorful with plenty of shrimp. I also had the pomegranate margarita, which was delicious. I asked for it a little spicy, and it was perfect. My server was a bit lukewarm, but the person keeping my water glass filled was on it! My glass never went empty, and I appreciated that. Great food, great vibe, and I'd definitely come back if I'm in the area again.

I came here this evening and honestly ended up having a really good experience. When I first got…read morehere, there was about a 45-minute wait for a table for one. After waiting around 20 minutes, I decided to just grab a seat at the bar, and I'm actually glad I did. There was no wait, and even though the restaurant was packed, my food came out really fast. Jon was my primary server. He was polite but was not attentive, I didn't feel like we connected much during the meal. The front staff was very friendly, though, and helped me with some recommendations. I ordered the guacamole with chips and salsa, fried whole jalapeño, chile relleno, and rice and beans. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and well seasoned. The guacamole was really good, the rice and beans had a lot of flavor, and the fried jalapeño with the habanero sauce had just the right amount of heat. If you like spicy food, I'd definitely recommend trying it. The chile relleno was recommended by Alvaro, and he told me it reminds him of his grandma whenever he eats it. I really liked hearing that because it made the recommendation feel personal, and he was absolutely right, it was delicious. Huge shoutout to Alvaro. He wasn't even my primary server, but he kept an eye on me, checked in, helped with recommendations, and made sure everyone around the bar was taken care of. He was just genuinely friendly and easy to talk to, and that stood out to me. For dessert, I tried the Pan de Elote for the first time, again on Alvaro's recommendation. I had never tried it before, but trust me, hands down, it was really good. I'm glad he convinced me to give it a try because it was the perfect way to finish the meal. The kitchen deserves a shoutout too. Everything came out cooked well and looked great. The restaurant is clean, nicely decorated, and has both indoor and outdoor seating, and I thought the prices were pretty reasonable. I've been to a few highly rated places around Palm Springs that looked great on paper but didn't quite live up to the reviews, so it was nice to finally have a meal that actually delivered. Good food, good atmosphere, and genuinely nice people. Alvaro definitely made the experience more memorable!!!!

We honestly felt like we paid full size prices for kid size meals and left still hungry. We had another appointment immediately afterward, so we didn't have time to order anything else, which made it even more disappointing. We've been to the Azusa location, and the difference in portion sizes is surprising! The servings there are easily 2-3 times the amount. For what we paid in Palm Springs, we definitely expected more. The food itself was enjoyable, but the value and portion sizes really missed the mark for us.

My date mentioned that this location had stellar reviews and she wanted mexican so we stopped by First the octopus ceviche was wonderful tart and delicious. Pro tip be careful with that spicy red sauce! It's spicy but flavorful My date had the chicken enchiladas. The rice was delicious and not mushy. The green sauce tasted authentic and finally a spot that stuffs the chicken in the tortilla. At times some places skimp on the filling I had the steak nachos with everything. It's hard to mess up nachos but they were equally good. The staff was very attentive serving the some chips and cold water as soon as I was seated and I found them to be very attentive. Great location will return

I ordered the vegetarian enchiladas and my husband got the shrimp burrito. It came with complimentary chips and salsa, which was nice. We also ordered elote. Elite: 5/5 delicious and fresh Enchiladas: 1/5 horrible - literally the dried, brown ends of kale and a couple canned mushroom slices for the "vegetables." Shrimp burrito: flavorless and mono textured with 3 shrimps, My husband got a Diet Coke, which was $6. No refunds were offered for coke or water. Super disappointed in this place and would not recommend.

It's been years since i was last here. The good old Coachella days. Now, we would usually walk by…read morewalking through town and it's still pretty lively as it's alway have been. In my opinion, it is a major tourist hot sport. But whatever works as it's alway busy and they tend to alway have a live band. People do get up to dance near the outdoor bar. Fast forward to this visit. It wasn't originally the first choice as we were heading to another place up the street. Another tourist hotspot but that had an hour waitlist without a reservation. Second choice and we're back. I did like this place all the prior visit years ago. It was pretty lively both inside as well as the patio area. Along the street, a private event was happening so that brought in a good crowd. There wasn't a wait time when we checked in for the patio seating. Give or take a couple of minutes and we were seated. Within minutes, the place did pick up at the check in. Joshue took care of us last night. First off, the sweetest and friendliest and very welcoming. Not only him but everyone that worked there. All the workers were the sweetest. It's been years since I was last here so the menu was new to me. The way it was set up like a book. Seemed to have everything but also seemed a little all over the place...lol... Chips and salsa was brought out right after we got seated. The salsa was quite tasty but with any Mexican restaurant that offers the chips, DO NOT get full before your meal..lol... Well, we sort of did an also ordered the nachos with chicken for the table to share. Drinks, pretty much a mixture of everything with the top shelf margaritas 17.95, 2 large fruit margaritas at 47.90, and 2 el Diablo at 33.90. Drinks alone was a bill on its own. Quite tasty though. Food, the shared nachos were quite nice. A good amount of chicken with a hefty scoop of guacamole with all the trimming of cheese, tomatoes, onion and beans. A nice little start before the meal. Entrees, the 2 item combo with the tostada with shredded beef, an additional fee and that also came with the chili rellenos and rice and beans but opted for all rice. The fish plate, a nice filet served with rice and mixed sautéed veggies. The 2 item combo burrito with a taco which was pretty big, also with rice and beans. Lastly the carnitas plate with a hefty portion of meat also served with rice and beans and tortilla. Overall, the food was nice. Drinks did have a kick to it. Service was amazing and Joshue was a doll. Took very good care of us and the sweetest as well as everyone else. The place is lively and does get busy. It is a major tourist hotspot as it along the main strip of downtown but worth checking out.

We came to Las Casuelas excited to continue my friend's bachelorette weekend but the experience was…read morenothing short of disappointing. The host staff was amazing and welcoming but once we sat down, everything went downhill. Our server vanished after taking our order, leaving us with zero service the entire time. Thankfully, Miguel, the busser, stepped up and did everything the server should have been doing. He refilled drinks, checked on our food, and made sure we were taken care of. We tipped him based on his service, not the server's lack of it. What crossed the line was the manager coming out after the bill was paid to ask for more money for the server who didn't lift a finger for our table. As a group of mostly former service-industry workers, we were stunned by the audacity and unprofessionalism. This was my first visit to Las Casuelas and it will definitely be my last.

The server checked on us often and although our entrees took a good half hour to come out, the server made sure we were well taken care of. The shortcomings of this experience started with the small menu- I expected a larger choice in food and was a bit taken aback when we realize there were only 5 or 6 entries to pick from... we also found we were nickeled and dimed for many things on the bill. For example, many restaurants offer chips and dip while you wait for the food (and we did end up waiting over 30 minutes after ordering for our food). I don't recall if someone specifically ordered chips and guac but they were delicious on the table. We asked if we could have some salsa to go with the chips and were charged for chips and salsa as well. For guac, salsa and chips, our table was charged $24. Our table of 6 ended up paying $438 before tip so each person paid almost $90 after tip. I expected a lot more for this price point.
