Las Palmas is a small Mexican restaurant located between downtown Russellville and Arkansas Tech University. The menu was fairly typical, with nothing that really stood out. They do serve beer and cocktails, but was a bit of a surprise to us. We're pretty sure this was our first time there.
Chips and salsa were good. They were more than willing to bring us more when we ran low.
We were both pretty hungry, so we skipped the appetizer and ordered our main courses. Linda had the green enchilada plate. Pretty good taste, except a bit of burned taste from the green sauce. It wasn't bad, just a little off. Rice and beans were as expected. I had the Tamale lunch with cheese sauce. It was very good. I'm a big tamale fan, and this is one I'd come back for. I added a chile relleno a la carte, and it was loaded with cheese, just like I'd expect. The chile had just a little heat. I had the green sauce on top, and had the same slightly off taste.
Service was great. They kept our drinks, chips, and salsa filled.
We'll definitely go back and give them another chance with the green sauce, and probably sample their drinks. Friendly folks. Don't hesitate to give them a try.
