Stopped by here when I couldn't decide where to get Mexican. Originally I wanted tacos but...people have the right to change their mind right. Bueno estas señoras son muy amable. The ladies here are real nice. Reminds me of being home getting dinner at my Tia's. So the camarones a la diabla used to be my favorite but I hadn't had it in a long time. I appreciate this place and would come back to try something else. Give it a second shot. But the sauce was more sweet than spicy how i prefer it. Aaaand they were skimp with the shrimp. I did however really enjoy having freshly cooked handmade tortillas. Surely did. Fucked it up! 4 stars for now. Cuz they the Tias now.

Las Palmeras has a large open patio in the back. I went yesterday for the first time ordering food to go. Staff were super friendly and open. A friend had brought me a loroco Pupusa the day before and it was amazingly fresh and delicious. I ordered another loroco pupusa, as well as a chicken tamale. The tamale was the BEST I've ever had in my life, and I have a long history of eating tamales. The masa was so soft and full of flavor it was incredible. I'm thinking it must be the wrap in banana leaves that makes it so moist. Do yourself a favor and try some of their food. It's delicious. I won't be getting tamales from anywhere else for a while. GREAT FOOD.

I like their pupusas and their beef soup. Their fish soup is pretty good too. I know they buy their meat fresh every day from the meat market in front of them, which is another of my favorite places in the mission.

Note: Cash only. Trying a Mission fixture since 1988. Salvadoran and Mexican. They have an interesting breakfast menu too. I'm ordering cheese pupusas (haven't had one since 2012) and cheese enchiladas because I'm leery that the other Salvadoran stuff that intrigues me might be too spicy (had a bad experience at Velvet Cantina last week where I couldn't eat the food). Cheese enchiladas were super cheesy. I liked the rice a lot. Cheese pupusa was a bit greasy due to the cheese but tasty. I look forward to coming back.
