Taqueria El Palomino

So I dropped my car off at Discount Tire and decided to swing by here and grab some lunch! First of all let me start with the customer service - IMMACULATE!! There were two people working at the time and they were so kind and so helpful!!! I decided to get a taco plate with the Pastor (Pork), Fajita (Beef), Pollo (Chicken), and Barbacoa. All of the tacos were AMAZING and so well seasoned - but the barbacoa had to be my favorite!! It was SO tender, and juicy!! The rice and beans were on point as well!! What a hidden gem!! All in all, this was a top tier meal, and I definitely look forward to coming back and trying other items on the menu.

I went to the taco truck once and thought it was pretty decent. Went to the restaurant today and ordered a 3 taco plate. Asada, Chorizo, and Pastor. None of the meats really had any flavor, and there were no onions and cilantro on them, and no limes. Granted, they did give me a some grilled onions on the side. They also did not give me any sauce. The only other table in the restaurant I saw got served a bottle of green and an red sauce with their meal. There is also no English descriptions on the menu, so unless you know every term for mexican food that you see your kind of limited to what you can order by what you know.

Wow, found this place all because @Dallas.tv did an Instagram post saying Dallas tacos suck. If you find the right places, like Taqueria El Palomino; you will prove Dallas.tv wrong! These tacos are amazing are are the staff. I also ordered a fajita burrito that was flavorful and excellent. The authentic Mexican tacos were amazing though. We will be back!FYI: lots of seating for the family and friends and close to Lake Dallas. Make sure you stop in!

Went with my family of 4 yesterday for some breakfast tacos because someone said they have them. Walked in at 9:30 am and not one person was there. The gentleman in the kitchen took our order and said cash only. Which was fine I had cash. There was no breakfast tacos on the menu. We asked for bacon, egg. And potato. Ordered 9. They came with a lime and were great! I had to go to the counter again to ask for some waters but he just handed me big bottles of water. Not what I wanted but there was no one else working there and another couple walked in. It was silent in the dining room and I was a little turned off by the fact that no one was there. A lady finally came in with a bag of groceries and went behind the counter. She started straightening tables up etc. came near our table but never said a word. I walked up to the counter and said I needed to pay for our food, She asked what we got and I started to tell her and she just wanted the count. I said 9 and she said they are all the same price (not listed on the menu). I was expecting to pay about 3.00 a taco but the total was 39.00! A taco that is almost $5.00 each is insanely over priced. I felt like they were up charging for the fact that there was no one else in their dining room. The location of this place is awful. You can't get in and out easily because there's way too much traffic on Swisher. This place was our go to for tacos when they owned the taco truck next to the donut store. We likely won't be back.

My Neighbor turned me on to this (Taqueria El Palomino) Taco place - you see here is the issue - I have been to many other " Mexican Food Restaurants" here in Texas, and I have to say it is very hit and miss. I do not post 5 stars for anyone unless it is deserved. We ordered steak Fajitas and they were awesome, great amount of food for the price and very delicious. I always order something to eat for later, this time it was the Burrito (Beef Cheek) con todo. I just finished half of it and WOW. This place is worth driving to, or use doordash or any other method to get some of this delicious authentic Mexican Food. BTW if your from CA like myself, you will not be disappointed. Its also a great venue to have a party of 250 guest, it can accommodate that many and its available to book an event.

We've had the tacos and the tortas, both of which are fantastic. The food is amazing and the service is too. They are super fast and friendly. We've tried them once and have gone back now several times. So good!

The food is OK, but there are better authentic Mex food places nearby. They are not friendly at all. It feels like they're annoyed to have customers.

Yawl did it again, I've been having lunch once a week for about 8 weeks (take out) and it has been great each and every time. Thankful there are family owned and operated great restaurants in Lake Dallas. If you haven't tried this awesome spot yet your missing out, give them a shot.Travis

Good food, would gladly eat again. Service was quick, but i think that's because the place was basically empty.

Excellent. Haven't tried this place since they moved. Tried a variety of tacos and the were great. Good beans and fresh, fluffy rice.
