“ One of the best Mexican restaurants in Lubbock without any doubt. The food is great, their bar makes amazing drinks, the service is great, it looks really nice inside, and the food is very reasonably priced. I'm a big fan of La Palapa and I will keep coming back and recommending it to everyone. ”
“ My go to spot for Taco Tuesday! Gotta go early before it becomes too crazy busy. Love their lunch & drink specials too if I pop in on any other day. Sometimes the service could be better but still 5 stars overall. ”
“ We had an early dinner here around 3:00 on 1/18. We were warmly welcomed and immediately seated. After reviewing the extensive menu, we settled on both the queso flameado and the guacamole puerco for our appetizers, which ended up being a meal in themselves! We added chorizo and mushrooms to the queso, which was absolutely wonderful. And the guacamole was divine with the asada and pico. The chips and salsa were fantastic as well. Then I ordered the birria tacos for my entree. The consomme was full of flavor and the tacos were amazing. Overall we enjoyed a phenomenal meal and had a good time! ”
