El Palenque - Nashville

Fresh hot Mexican food! Also, this is a GreenHills original! It's been there for years!

Went in for a lunch this week. Inedible. The beef stank of fish. Then asked for just simple chips with beef and the beef must have been two weeks or more old. Nauseating. First the beef in a dish was rank and stank , like the two meats had been mixed together and old and then the beef was disgusting. And, since they also didn't put any tomatoes or any other garnishes on it was overpowering to see and smell how rank the meats were. Metro should condemn them . We walked by a storage room and it was filthy. Left and paid only for flat , cokes. Never eat here, or do at your own risk of getting food poisoning. Though I will add the poor waitress was very nice and seemed to be absolutely as frustrated as we were .

Meh. Food was passable, service mediocre, prices high. Best thing I can say is their iceberg lettuce was fresh. Don't waste your time trying to find this place.

Amazing straight up authentic! We come from ELA and it all good come down and enjoy the best Mexican meals ....

This my favorite restaurant in Nashville. This is what you wish every Mexican restaurant would be. The food is fantastic! And it is prepared and served by a family that has prepared these dishes from their home land for generations.
