    Only place I'll get camarones a la diabla from! the server they call pollo is SUPER funny, we always leave him good tips it's like a comedian/server in one. Food is really good, chef is amazing at cooking!  Come here like three times a month!

    customers for at least 10 years , at least once or twice a week. Used to have shrimp and fish soup and my wife the shrimp  platter, spending 75/80 bucks a week. Last week, my wife was served shrimp with the heads half detached from the body, manifestly rotten, black, mushy, and stinky. We showed the waitress, she gently answered that they were delivered to them that way.
    My wife ordered tacos instead and they were delicious.
    They did not accept that we pay the bill, which we appreciated.
    But we will never go back , since we don't know what they really serve in their dishes. I had their soup, but God knows what I ate all these years, I am not dead, I know. If they are able to serve rotten shrimp to their customers, we no longer trust this restaurant.

    I was here looking for a marisco restaurant and found la Palma restaurants . Thanks everyone for your helpful reviews . Ordered a mojarra frita and wasn't grease and tasted delicious. My wife ordered a filet Granada and loved it. Great service and food . I will be back when I'm around the area . Thanks Palapa. Buy one meal and get one half off in the summer . Love it

    Excellent food and excellent service.  I had a Carne Asada Burrito and I don't recall what both of my children had, but we all agreed that the food and service was excellent.
