Back when all Nashville knew of Mexican food was bagged Doritos and Taco Bell, El Palenque invited gringos to their table and introduced them to chicken mole and green enchiladas and tamales. Now that genuine Mexican restaurants, as well as mobile vendors, are nearly as common in Nashville as fried chicken and barbecue, this restaurant has grown rather predictable, catering more to American tastes with huge portions and lots of cheese. Still, it's cheap, full-service, easily accessed in the heart of Green Hills, with bilingual service even a Southerner can comprende. Full bar.
