Parking: This is the best food I’ve eaten East of San Antonio! The servers were quick, attentive and friendly. We stopped here for convenience on a trip to visit family. This is a hidden treasure in Cave City, AR! We will make the 1 hour + trip again, but this time only for the experience.

El Palenque is a place you feel welcome when you walk in. The service was exceptional. The chips, rice & beans & bean enchilada I ordered were tasty. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because the tamale was overcooked and somewhat dry & burned on the ends. I enjoyed the white cheese sauce poured over the enchilada. The half sweet, half unsweet tea was perfect. The Flan dessert was excellent, not overly sweet, but light & caramelized. Yum!

The best of all the El Palenques. The Meca. Cave city doesn't have authentic Mexican food. The best I've found for authentic Mexican is probably a food truck in Jonesboro. If you are okay with this style of food and you like a quick, hot meal, with friendly service then this is a great option in Cave City. (There aren't many)

We enjoy coming here - the staff is so friendly and attentive. Normally, it is a calm atmosphere. The food is good - I recommend the shredded chicken burrito.

Came on here after I saw a Facebook post of pictures with mold in the food. The customer wasted $40 and was told they wouldn’t be getting a refund. Stay away from this joke of a restaurant.

Very fast service and friendly staff. Big portions and pretty tasty. Love that they serve the burritos with beans and rice.

This is one of the best Mexican places around. The service is always friendly and almost impossibly fast. Also, they season everything perfectly.Parking: The lot is a little tight for us disabled folks.
