    We love Palmilla, the ambiance is so inviting and makes you feel like you are vacationing on a beach. Awesome tasty drinks and food is delicious. Instead of chips and salsa they bring you fresh house made flour tortillas with a green salsa, red salsa and butter for dipping. Everything is sooo good. Thank you Palmilla for another wonderful experience

    The drinks were amazing. Food was good, unfortunately the Carnitas were a little dry. The  churro dessert was one of the best I’ve had. I would definitely return.

    Great food, chips, homemade flour tortillas, salsas, shrimp and short rib taquitos plus watermelon margaritas. Little expensive but beautiful atmosphere! The service was good once they attended to us.
