Their menu is diverse and has the greatest variety quality and the portions or something to write home about! You want to go out for Mexican food take your family or friends this should be your destination! Excelente the highest marks five stars! This is the secret that the other Mexican restaurants in town don't want you to know about! Heck they probably take their family and friends and employees there themselves! And once you go, you won't blame them! I almost convinced myself this far north the best I could do is Canadian Mexican, like there's a stronger word for authentic it should be used here! Take your family take your friends, give them all something to talk about! Thank you la palmita taqueria Mexican restaurant!

I wouldn't doubt if the employees of the other Mexican restaurants in town come here to eat! Try it out! Bring your family bring your friends and everybody tell everybody that likes Mexican food this is the place!

We ordered oyster shots that were plentiful and delicious (a bit spicy but good). I had the ceviche, hubby had the chimichanga meal and both were large portions and delicious. Hubs said he loved the added bacon in the refryed beans. Our waiter was fantastic as so was the reasonable prices. If I had 1 cretic it would be a little too much lime juice in the oyster shots. I finished off the ceviche for lunch today -- Yum

Wasn't overly busy since it was a Wednesday night so can't use that as an excuse. Food was ok. Fairly bland for Mexican. I would expect more spice and more flavor in my food from a place like this.

It's a different kind of place. It's not a restaurant but not fast food either…read more The menu items are not prepared in advance for the most part. They have a drive thru and even if you call ahead you'll still have a bit of a wait. There's a nice selection of things and things you don't find often like tongue burritos. Menudo is available on the weekend. It's a cute spot but doesn't have the linger awhile atmosphere and that what makes this more of a fast casual. The food you get is plentiful, but doesn't have much flavor even after adding any of the available sauces. I don't know. Maybe I need to try a different time of day or different things on the menu but I haven't been overwhelmed so far.

I'm in Billings for the next two weeks and I was hoping to find a solid option for good Mexican,…read moreespecially a place with good mariscos. So with that in mind I ordered delivery from Guadalajara for some Camarones a La Diabla, a dish I order regularly. I don't want to go into these things with assumptions or negative expectations but this is not the first time I've been in Montana and Billings specifically. I have found gems in places I wouldn't have expected, but Billings has so far not been one of those places. This was not bad, but it was not good either. The sauce is very clearly ketchup based and it was hard to get past the strong ketchup flavor. It is not unheard of to make Diabla sauce using ketchup. It also isn't the best way to make a Diabla sauce IMHO but it can work. This sauce did have good heat, nothing crazy but the heat was there. There was also some other good flavors including a roasted/char character that was nice. I just had a hard time getting past the sweetness and very distinct ketchup flavor. A little too much of a tangy sweet flavor for me. The shrimp were nice size, cooked decently (I try not to judge too much on shrimp when it is delivery, but this was better than average) and enough that I'm not going to complain about portion size. The other items for the dish, rice, refried beans, salad, pico, and guacamole were all pretty good. I had them hold the sour cream. I also ordered chips and salsa which was a let down. The chips were dry aged, er, I mean stale and the salsa was very very very bland.
