Reviews for La Palma Mexican Grill in Johnstown, NY
Very good service, fresh food with good portions...delicious will absolutely return. A little hidden gem.
Rice taste like nothing.... Fajita was so so... Probably wouldn't eat here again. Sorry....
For an ethnic Tech Mexican grill Highly disappointed. Fault advertising. The food tastes very Americanized. No flavor at all.
I hate ordering tacos from a Mexican restaurant in a town limited with Mexican people. The restaurants cater to the locals and... screw Mexican cuisine. That's how I got lettuce and 2 types of melted cheese on my tacos. Ni me le pusieron limón a la mojarra,nada de limón. Me chingaron gacho. ???? If I wanted lettuce and cheese on my tacos I would go to Taco Bell. I had to edit myreview and add a few stars because the meat was good and the beans & rice were tasty. Read more
I have eaten Mexican food throughout the US. I have always eaten at places run by authentic Mexican cooks. I look at cost,... taste, presentation and portion size. Depending on where you are in the US usually guides the spice levels. If your near Mexicoit?s hotter and if your in Maine it?s not as hot. At least that?s been my experience. Juan is a very nice guy with very littlepersonality on the front end. However, you can tell he cares but suffers from language issues. The food here is authentic andthe flavors are not to strong and not to weak. I have eaten here several times and always left not being hungry and happy. I?veeaten all over the Capital district and had a little better here and there but paid way way more. For what this place chargesand what you get here in little ole Johnstown, this is one heck of a place. I have included some pictures and just tell Juan,?some guy sent you? Give this place a try it?s really good. Update-we went for cinco de Mayo on May 5th 2022. We had a blastwith some great beers and the restaurant filled up with people at every table. We ate dinner and it was really good as usual. Wegot to know the owner better and he is a really nice guy. His whole family has restaurants throughout the U.S. we will includesome more pictures with this post. It?s July 25, 2022 and we just had diner. I had 3 chicken and 3 beef empeñadas and theymelted in my mouth with a deep flavor of deliciousness. Additionally, I had a beef taco in the shell and soft. Both were veryscrumptious. Lastly, I had one chili Rellenos. It was blacked and the cheese and spice were just right. I cut little pieces offand ate them on top of my empanada bites. I don?t eat here all the time but when I do I always leave happy and full. Nice tohave something different in our area. Go! Go! Go! tell them ?some guy sent you.? Read more
Has to be the worst Mexican food I've ever seen. Meat was cut into little stringy pieces. I dont think anyone would be able to... identify the meat. A billion more onions than other vegetables or meat. Beans were a soupy puddle. Food made my stomach hurt.Resturant could use cleaning and updating. 2nd star for offering different food in the area, and being able to do online orders. Read more
Food tasted ok, however I ordered 1 taco to go and it took over 20 minutes to get. They were not busy at all. Literally one... family in there who had already eaten. The waitress was friendly, but the cook staff need to step it up. Read more
Totally disappointed with order. Ordered the combination dinners with three items. Only received two items in the entree. Called... to complain and was given the run around. Food was not as expected. Floor in restaurant was grease coated and slippery. Read more
