Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Palominos in McAllen is celebrated for its "amazing ambiance" and exceptional service. Guests rave about the "outstanding" steaks and diverse drink selection. While some note minor service hiccups and portion sizes, the "superb" ribeye aguachiles and dessert offerings like the "mostachón cake" and Nutella dessert earn praise. An impressive choice for special occasions!

First time having dinner there and the service was outstanding! The ambiance was amazing! We had some appetizers, a salad, steak and baked potato. We also had cheesecake for dessert. Not sure if I would go again for dinner but definitely for appetizers and drinks.

Great fresh food. It does take a while to get. The meals are delicious. The filet mignon was a 7/10. The ribeye aguachiles was SUPERB! It is a MUST have. I’ve never had anything like it. The cheese cake was delicious as well. Overall, it was a great ambiance. The music did get a little loud later in the evening around 8pm that made dinner conversations a little more difficult for our professional business dinner.
