Las Palmas Del Sur

I'm on a quest to try as many taco joints as possible since I got my new job here in Norristown. The first place I tried was Las Palmas. It's a small yet festive looking store front on Main Street right near the courthouse. It wasn't crowded and they had a tv with Mexican shows playing. I stopped in and ordered two tacos... one pastor and one tripa. They came out quickly and were served with a basket of warm chips with beans and cheese and two types of salad. The greens salsa was fresh and not too spicy. The red one was spicy and full of Chile flavor. My tacos were perfect. The pastor had nice chunks of pineapple and weren't too greasy. The tripa was clean --and very flavorful. My lunch came to $6. The service was friendly and fast and the tacos were great. I will definitely be back.

Hole in the wall in Norristown with delicious Mexican food. Stumbled across this restaurant when I was called for jury duty across the street. The food was delish so I went back with a friend. They agreed the restaurant was a Diamond in the rough and would definitely go back again! Definitely worth checking out if in the area.

The largest grouping of Mexican restaurants outside Philadelphia is in the Montgomery County Seat of Norristown.  There is even one section of town called Little Mexico.  One of my favorite Mexican restaurants is located right in the heart of town on the Main Street called Las Palmas del Sur.  It is a very good place to know about....especially for your taste buds.A recent meal at Las Palmas was a real treat.  It began with the usual chips and salsa ... but I was careful not to eat too many because I had a lot of food still to come.  The queso fundido was served piping hot a la plancha.  This version emphasizes a seasoned ground beef as much as it does the cheese and it is simply delicious.  But again I still had my main entrée to arrive.  My principle plate was an amazing Parrillada - again served sizzling hot a la plancha.  The beef and pork and shrimp were enhanced by greens, scallions, cactus, & peppers amid a light sauce.  To the side were rice, frijoles, greens, and pico de gallo to add to this feast. Of course I wound up taking much of this tasty dish home where I enjoyed it again the next day.The service was friendly and the prices are very low compared to other Mexican restaurants in the burbs which are much less authentic.  I highly recommend Las Palmas del Sur in downtown Norristown.

This small restaurant seemed popular with locals (now called "Patreon"). I ordered a Las Palmas burrito and guacamole with chips. The guacamole was flavorful and the portion size was hearty, but the accompanying chips were super oily, almost inedible. The burrito did not skimp on filling, though it was also greasy and not very flavorful, topped with cheese that tasted like melted American cheese. Overall, I was very disappointed with the flavor and felt horrible throwing away over half of the food I ordered.

Tacos have been on my mind this past week and we found ourselves here for a quick bite at La Palmas del sur. Restaurant's clean and servers are very friendly and accommodating. Chips are complimentary but I wished they were warm. For our mains, we ordered vegetarian mole poblano, I must say the mole sauce was quite delicious (for all you plant eaters out there the pinto beans are vegetarian-which is a plus!) the fish taco were just OK, it was battered and deep fried on corn tacos with shredded lettuce and tomatoes and a sauce on the side. This place is extremely reasonably priced and portions are quite large. I recommend sticking to entree your can't make at home!

The very best authentic home made Mexican, eat in or to go, food in the area. We have been searching for a place like this and never thought that this small establishment would be the answer. Find an on street parking spot, and you will be well rewarded.Friendly owner and staff, clean and inviting interior. Excellent service. You won't be disappoint with the prices either. Lastly the portions are huge.

This place serves up quality Mexican food with prices that are easy on your wallet. Tacos for under $3. Hell yeah! I ordered the pollo and pastor taco topped with onions and cilantro. Didn't have to wait too long for the food to come out. Besides I was enjoying the complimentary tortilla chips and salsa (verde and roja), which many Mexican places do not provide anymore. The pastor was seasoned well and so was the chicken. Oh and the Horchata was delicious. Whether you're in the area for jury duty or passing by on Main St, be sure to grab some food at this authentic Mexican spot.

What is this? I have been coming to this location for over 7 years. The nachos here have been the beat I have ever had. I think this is under new management and it has now been the worse. Never have I ever carrots and radish in nachos! Maybe if it's your twist it works but not for me anymore have years of coming here... next step find good nachos in Norristown .

After visiting a church nearby, we went to this restaurant on a Sunday afternoon. Pretty well packed with many aficionados which was a good sign. It didn't take long to get service although it was more than average to get our food. But it was well worth it. I had a Burrito Ranchero which was both generous and delicious. My wife had a Parrillada Steak Entree which she enjoyed. My stomping grounds do not normally include Norristown, but if I return I will check it out.

Portion sizes are HUGE, Price is very reasonable, and the food... DELICIOUS!I love trying out Mexican restaurants and this is by far my favorite. Food is extremely flavorful and well made. We ordered tacos, queso fundido, tortas, burrito, and gorditas. Tacos were delicious. The flavor of the chorizo was amazing. The torta was HUGE! The burrito was also great. And the gorditas... DELICIOUS! The meat was juicy and the bun was warm and chewy.
