What Guests Say
Guestbook
“ Best filet ever...thick and flamed with tequila at your table. Spectacular presentation. Also, the cauliflower side was the tastiest ever, prepared like mashed potatoes, enhanced with parmesan cheese and cream cheese. So yummy and very reasonably priced. Filet dinner for 2 around $100 Can. No liquor. Great service also. ”
“ We traveled to Mazatlan with one of our adult sons for Christmas to escape the wet and cold of the Pacific northwest. The week started with our son being robbed and beaten up by the local "police". After that we managed to salvage a mediocre vacation albeit with PTSD. Also the restaurants we visited were disapointing until we found Palmares. Palmares was the highlight of our trip. Everything Mexico should be (and often is). Exceptional food (try the fresh Sea bass and cheese cake). Exceptional drinks (Black Ant featuring mezcal) . Exceptional service (Brayan!). Exceptional entertainment (local Mariachi band). Exceptional value (Dinner for 2 with many drinks including fine tequilas, mezcals and wine, $120 USD with tip). Arguably the best restaurant experience in our recent memory. Dine here! ”
“ Palmares is an absolute gem! Every dish we tried was delicious, from the refreshing drinks to the mouthwatering appetizers and main courses. The grilled octopus is a must-try—it's so good that I went back a second time just to have it before we left! The flavors are incredible, and the presentation is on point. Not to mention, the restaurant is designed so chic—definitely a place to impress! I highly recommend Palmares to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience. Can't wait to return! ”
“ We loved everything about our dinner experience here. The service was the best we’ve ever received, very attentive but also allowed you the space to be together. We celebrated our anniversary and were accompanied by some of the best food we’ve ever had - we could not get enough- very authentic from Mazatlan, along with beautiful, calm live music. Hats off to Juan & Brayan, we felt spoiled that we were spoken to in English- you both have gone above and beyond to make our night one to remember, by guiding us with the menu, and being so genuinely kind. They even treated us to a complimentary flan (best I’ve had!). I can’t recommend enough!! The best dining experience in Mazatlan, hands down- trust! Thank you thank you thank you, muchísimas gracias, amigos ”
“ I loved it came here for my birthday with a large group, including 3 toddlers and they went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, the food was phenomenal. The service was absolutely top tier. We're comg back for my husband's birthday, absolutely loved it ”
