El Nopal No. 4 - Reservar uma mesa

El Nopal is a Tex-Mex restaurant located next to the truck stop in Palmyra on Hwy 24. In a nut shell: great service, friendly staff, and an extensive menu, all in one of the cutest over-the-top Mexican decors we have ever seen. The interior was so colorful and unique that it is almost tongue in cheek, but we enjoyed it anyway. El Nopal is a family restaurant with a full service bar, so you know they will have the usual menu of margaritas, tacos, enchiladas, burritos and fajita dinners, and they do all of them well. They aren't over the top on spicy, nor on heat, so almost everyone can enjoy their fare. The chips were crispy (though not warmed), and the salsa had good flavor, although it could have used more cilantro. We also added a touch of hot sauce to kick it up just a bit. We ordered queso, and were surprised that we got a bowl of a runny processed white cheese sauce that was served at room temperature! We won't order that again! We expected the traditional melted nacho cheese dip, and so, should have asked more before ordering the queso. Their menu is very extensive, and based on other reviewer's comments, everything is consistently tasty. The food we were served was delicious, fresh, and well prepared. Portions were large, and prices are reasonable. We arrived a few minutes before noon, and the restaurant started filling up just a few minutes later. Still, the service was quick and the staff was friendly. We saw several chili rellenos plates go out, so may have to try that next time! Thumbs up for El Nopal!

We were very happy with our meals tonight! We drove all afternoon on our way to Florida and arrived around 8:00pm tonight for a meal. The food order came out quick and it was delicious! Chips and salsa were great. I ordered the mixed fajitas that come with chicken, steak and shrimp...I prefer bigger pieces of meat, but the flavor was very good. Excellent shrimp, too. My husband had shredded chicken enchiladas with a cheese sauce-he said it was very good! Prices are reasonable and portions are quite large! We were pleased with our choice!

Small town Mexican can sometimes be the best. Traveling on business and stumbled into El Nopal thanks to Yelp when the other restaurant in Palmyra was closed on Mondays. Friendly service, $6.99 margaritas on Monday, and super delicious shrimp tacos. Ask for the extra hot salsa and the side of cheese and lettuce to stuff the tacos. Returned a second time for the exact same dish it was so good. Very friendly. Even the people in Hannibal MO say it's the best Mexican in the area and I agree.

Had the food here a few times, and it's the best you're going to get around here. They have a wide selection of food but not authentic enough for my liking. They get pretty busy over the weekends and have lots of parking. They also have lots of seating. They have a full bar and make really good margaritas for a decent price in my opinion. I will be coming back to try more things on their menu but will 100% be back for another margarita.

I usually eat here once a week it's so good. Owned and operated by very friendly people. Highly recommend the mixed burrito.
