If you're reading reviews to decide if you should go here.....stop reading and just GO HERE! We popped in about 20 minutes til closing (sorry about that but also THANK YOU!).....everyone was so warm and glorious. We got a steak Torta dinner and an Asada Torta to go.....and all I can say is I can't wait to go back. No pictures of food cause we ate it all. The only picture I took was the sign on the cooler and Louisa speaks only truth.

I came here for lunch recently. The lady that helped me was so welcoming and friendly! I'm happy to see a business in this once vacant spot. I opted for a vegetarian three taco dinner. I really enjoyed the tacos and the rice! I'm excited to come back soon and try more of their options especially the breakfast. The atmosphere is upbeat and lively!

Watermelon Juice

The food is delicious, the enchiladas and tacos are especially good. I really appreciate their prices which are reasonable for the area, a lot of places charge too much for tacos in this area, but not Palmitas. I would especially recommend their drinks. Their pineapple water and watermelon juice are addictive and some of the best drinks I have ever had! The woman who works the register is lovely, she always has a smile on and will direct you to the best foods. Best Mexican food in the area for sure!

The Tacos de Cabeza are the best that I've had in the north side you gotta try them. The waiter was also very friendly and welcoming. !!

I was craving a shrimp burrito so I decided to come here. I have walked past this place many times…read morebut never tried it. I stopped by with my pup to order shrimp burrito to go. Evelyn greeted us right away and placed my order. I asked for spicy salsa so she recommended the gobernador salsa which was a green spicy salsa made with poblanos. Evelyn was so sweet! She gave my puppy a treat and also brought out a bowl of water for him while we waited for the food. The inside of the restaurant was really cute and colorful and they had a separate bar area for drinks. I decided to order a spicy michelada with Pacifico beer while waiting. The bartender was super nice and made my drink quickly. It was the perfect amount of spice and was so refreshing! My burrito came out quick for how packed the inside of the restaurant was. The burrito was a good size and was so fresh and tasty! The gobernador salsa was delicious. I can't wait to go back and try something different and this time dine in.

My aunt introduced me to Tacombi yesterday, and I am so glad she did! The restaurant is really cute…read moreinside, and the food was so good. I had the Mexican street corn to start and then the lunch special with two tacos, rice, and beans. I got the carne asada and crispy fish taco. The carne asada is simple with just steak and onions, but so good! The sauce and the cabbage on the crispy fish taco is really good too. I usually don't love a corn tortilla, but these tacos were so flavorful that the corn tortilla was perfect.I also had the watermelon agua fresca, and it was refreshing and not too sweet. One of the staff members, Chris, was such a vibe. He greeted us friendly and professional as soon as we walked and came over later to check on us, and chatted with me and my aunt. Our waitress was amazing too, and several other staff members stopped by to check on us throughout our meal. Exceptional service like this can be hard to find so I really appreciated it. For me, it's a 5 out of 5 because the food and the service are equally great. I highly recommend! I forgot to take pictures but take my word for it lol.
