Wowwwwwwwww. Already planning to come back tomorrow. I really appreciate a great meal for a reasonable price that leaves my belly overly satisfied. I really like that they put the beans on the side in its own container so you can still have all the juice from them. Also really liked the beef empanada. Really great meal. read more

Went and tried out the Roasted Chicken and their Lemon Pepper hot wings. Both were delicious. The wings were cooked to perfection, crispy. The Roasted chicken was delicious on top of yellow rice. Service was good and friendly. Usually have the Oxtails special on Saturday as I was told. So I'm definitely going back to try them. read more

This is my first time trying Dominican food! I got the mofongo (Fried plantains mashed with garlic and other ingredients, there's also some gravy, $15) with fried pork. The fried pork reminded me of Asian pork belly, but a little more deep fried. This made it tougher and harder to chew. Definitely make sure you have some water nearby to wash it down. Nice flavor though. The mofongo looks like mashed potato's with lots of extra ingredients, but it is much more dense. Even slightly warm, it is a little difficult to cut into. The flavor is pretty neutral. I got a beef empanada (2.50). The outer shell was fried very crispy. Filling was ground beef. I didn't taste too much of a particular spice. The creamy pink mayo? Sauce was nice to dip it in. Service was friendly and fast. I'm interested in coming back to try their other items. read more

My experience at La Palma was excellent. The service was prompt and friendly, and the food exceeded expectations. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, and the portions were more than enough. The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and inviting. It's easy to see why so many locals recommend this place. I'll definitely be returning and bringing friends and family with me. read more

A carribean vibe and a solid Dominican restaurant. A staple in the Greensboro area. Been here plenty of times and they never miss. Stay busy but move fast and courteous. Highly recommend! read more

La Palma serves the most authentic Dominican food I've had in North Carolina--hands down. It's a small, family-owned spot where everything is made fresh from scratch. No shortcuts, no processed ingredients--just real, flavorful Dominican cooking the way it should be. This is a great place to bring the entire family. There's something on the menu for everyone. You can truly taste the love and tradition in every dish. From the rice and beans to the yuca balls and pastelitos, everything hits. It's the kind of food that makes you feel at home, even if you didn't grow up eating it. Caribbean flavor, comfort food, carb heavy ... you will leave this place fat and happy. If you've never tried Dominican food - I recommend trying the rice and beans and ANY of the meat dishes. One of their specialities includes a sandwich called a "CHIMI" - a Dominican sandwich on a hoagie. You can choose chicken, beef or pork or pork belly. If you're craving real Dominican flavor, this place is a must. The staff is welcoming, the service is quick, and the vibe is laid-back and inviting. Try the authentic Dominican sodas (Country Club). Try any of their fresh passionfruit or tamarind juices. They even have merengue and other Dominican music playing in the background. It doesn't get more authentic than this. 5 stars every time. read more

I'm Dominican and I can say whole heartedly that this is as authentic as it gets. Everything from the chicken to the Los Tres Golpes brings me back to what we ate in the DR, and my Abuela's cooking. It's delicious and full of flavor and if you're looking for Caribbean flavors you've got to check this place out! read more

I was given a recommendation to try the empanadas from here and I wasted no time after the very high recognition it was given. You guys.. the empanada was so good that I didn't even get a picture. I'm a sucker for a delicious empanada. It comes with a really good sauce so don't forget to try that as well. I washed it down with their pineapple juice which was homemade and refreshing. I will certainly be back to try a lot more! Service was fast and there was plenty of seating inside even though I ordered to go. There was even a fire place running that you could sit beside. I can't wait to come back, dine in, and try everything on the menu! read more

We have been looking for some good Mofongo and we have found it. Combo has very good mofongo, chunks pork with a side salad. Many Spanish dishes to choose from as well as drinks.

Yes we do recommend this location for some good Spanish Food read more

La Palma - Front counter to order at. - Dominican Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

Absolute favorite place to eat! The staff is so kind and friendly they feel like family at this point. There's literally nothing I've tasted from here that is bad-nothing. My favorite item is the roasted pernil platter. It comes with rice and beans. My favorite is the rice and pigeon peas but it's not always available. Anytime you can get the yellow rice, definitely do. If I don't get those I get the white rice and pintos which are equally good. It comes with a side salad but I normally swap it out for another. Like I said everything is good-my favorite is the tostones but the plantains, mac and cheese, and roasted yucca. I'm getting hungry all over again thinking about it. You seriously can't go wrong with anything on the menu. It's also one of the few restaurants in Greensboro that still had the option to dine in. The patrons are always friendly and like I mentioned it just feels like home. Great establishment, great food, and great staff. read more

La Palma - Pernil with tostones and white rice - Dominican Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

There is not much to the ambiance, in a dying shopping center, it looks like an old sub shop with dirty vents. I say that not to scare you, but to understand this is not anything more than a casual dine/take out Dominican place with exquisite food, made with love. Service is great and folks are kind and helpful. The pork is fantastic, the beef lasagna is great. I can eat the sweet plantains all day. Go there, it's great. My biggest complaint is that they give you so much that they need a bigger Styrofoam container. Also, cardboard is more environmentally friendly. read more

Food for the soul! I love eating at La Palma. Hands down the best tostones in Greensboro! They are crunchy, large, and golden fried perfection. The ambience is pure Dominican culture from the moment you enter the restaurant. The employees are bilingual and extremely friendly! They have delicious daily specials and a large menu. I have eaten here several times and am never let down. My last visit there, I ordered the Mofongo con Chicharron de Cerdo (fried pork belly). The mofongo is garlicky, buttery, goodness. The fried pork belly, crispy on the outside, is a flavor explosion, while the crunchy side salad and secret vinaigrette add a refreshing touch to the dish. read more

This is more authentic than authentic. Dominican style mufungo, crispy pork belly, bollito de papa are like relleno de papa's and are just so good. I've been twice and both times they are busy. Be prepared to wait since it is made fresh and is delicious. The pernil and other deliciousness is in the steam table and is a bit quicker. 10 out of 10 read more

All I have to say is the beef empanada and mango juice didn't make it home with the take out order! You know it's good when you can't wait until you get home. Flaky, hot(temp), crispy, savory, sweet and salty with the addition of ketchupmayo paired with the cold, sweet mango juice!! Yum!!!! read more

The food and service was incredible! From calling in the order to having it at home, the whole experience was great. We ordered the dirty tostones, two of the ground beef potato balls (forgot the name on the menu!), and the cuban sandwich. So so good! read more

Came for a light snack and I'll certainly be back. Today I tried the Bollitos de Papa (cheese) and the Empanada (chicken). The potato ball was delicious... mashed potatoes formed around cheese then deep fried... it doesn't get much better than that. The empanada was great but mine was a big air pocket with only a tiny bit of filling. However what I did get was delicious and that means I just need to go back and try again! read more

My other two companions ordered a Philly steak sandwich , empanadas and tostones ( fried plantain I believe) very good food ! read more

Yummy food. Good service. Took a while to get our food but we were glad they were busy. :)

We haven't eaten "in" at La Palma since the start of interesting times, and I am delighted that even doing takeaway, their food holds up with a 20min drive to our place and is worth the round trip drive to get and eat at home. My defaults for takeaway are chicharron de cerdo platter (fried pork belly) for me & longaniza platter (Dominican pork sausage) for hubs, and la palma sandwich, which is sandwiched between tostones instead of served on bread for a next day lunch reheat in the air fryer. We have had to give up the fresh homemade donuts, as they really don't travel well, unless we messily eat them in the as an appetizer before we go. They have returned to eat in at the dining room, but on the whole I still lean towards takeaway but try to remember to tell them I don't need the plasticware and napkins. read more

A friend introduced me to La Palma today for lunch. It's a Dominican place in Greensboro on Gate City Blvd. Absolutely incredible food. Wow! The favors are incredible, the staff are awesome explaining the dishes and the prices are good. I had the pork with yuka and onions. The side was a potato beef ball with this delicious sauce. Give it a try if you're in the area and order the passion fruit drink. You won't regret it. read more

La Palma - Dominican Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

We are Dominican-Americans and are here on vacation from California. We used to have one Dominican restaurant but sadly it closed up. My daughter goes to college here and she highly recommended this restaurant. So here we are and ready to dine and eat Dominican food which we love. There is also a Dominican beauty salon next door which is very cool because everyone knows especially on the East Coast the Dominicans know everything about hair. Sorry, I digressed but back to the restaurant it wasn't crowded and you are free to sit yourself. You step up to the counter and you order your food and they give you a pager/beeper with a tray and your drinks. We enjoyed our drinks and then the beeper rang again to let us know that our meal was done. Everything was prepared in to-go containers which was perfect for us. The price was excellent especially compared to California where everything is astronomical. There was plenty of food to take back to my daughter's apartment. The food was delicious and reminded me of my mommy's food. The staff was nice and I will surely visit when I return to North Carolina. Muchas gracias La Palma! read more

Hubby and I working our way through a list of best "hole in the wall" eateries in greater GBO. WOW . . . Roast pork shoulder and fried shrimp ordered on first trip. Will be hard to move past the shrimp . . .actually having it again tonight for 2nd time within the week. Pork shoulder was very well prepared. Best black beans and rice I've had. Even the little green salad with vinigrette was a wonderful accompaniment. Only drawback here is the location. Menu, service,price,cleanliness, yumminess all a 5/5. read more

First time visiting La Palma and I will 100% be coming back. The restaurant is nicely set up and very clean. You order at the register and seat yourself. We did wait about 20 minutes for our food but they had a line out the door so duhh. I ordered the fried shrimp plate and that came with a salad and choice of side (I got the tostones). We also got empanadas both beef and chicken (beef were our faves) and the bollitos i believe they are called (cheese and beef). Very much enjoyed the food! read more
