Reviews For El Palote Panaderia

It's hard to find vegan Mexican food in Texas but this place hits the spot! Their soy meat is flavorful, they have a variety of marinades in which their soy meat is cooked in. They have about 9 different menu choices, fresh horchata, frescas, and of course pan dulce of many kinds. They also make their pan with almond milk and have gluten free options. They also have tamales available. Lastly, they sell 1 pound of their different meats marinated and frozen for 16 as well as their beans and rice to go. The cashier informed us of the many marinade/types of soy meat flavors available, but we asked for the spiciest option- Chicharron con Salsa. We ordered loaded fries with chicharron con salsa (marinated soy meat) and a burrito with the same chicharron con salsa. The food was excellent with the flavor just dripping off the meat and melding well with the other ingredients. A great find, flavorful food, and simple atmosphere. I hope you enjoy the food as much as we did!!

I have NEVER had a bad meal at El Palote Panaderia. Everything I’ve had from there is amazing. It’s by far one of my favorite food places in DFW. The food is always fresh, well seasoned and tastes home made. Even my carnivore friends think El Palote is something special

This Mexican spot is 100% vegan and the tacos are fire. I had asado de puerco, al pastor, brisket & barbacoa. They were all really good. The asado de puerco was my favorite - the vegan meat had so much flavor. Al pastor was the next best one for sure. I re-ordered the asado de puerco and Al pastor a second time and they were just as good. The refried beans and rice were also delicious. Noticeably good rice. I’d definitely return again! Fun fact: the chefs of this spot have a son who is the chef of Nuno’s - a 100% vegan tex Mex ghost kitchen in Dallas (it’s really good too).

Absolutely amazing vegan taqueria and panaderia. I'm not sure what these are called but please get them! Sooooo good! Torta, tacos, burritos all fire. We look forward to this place every time we come to Dallas.

This is a true vegan restaurant. With my mammal allergy it was wonderful to be able to order anything on the menu including the desserts without asking any questions. The lady who was at the counter was extremely helpful with our order. She suggested that we order the four taco dinner which comes with rice and beans or fries. There were twelve types of protein options. They were all similar in texture but I believe they are marinaded differently. These street tacos were served on two soft corn tortillas with a container of onions, cilantro and lime wedges. We also ordered the optional grilled onions and jalapeno. In addition we shared an order of nachos. They required a fork because of the amount of toppings. We brought home a couple of the bakery items for dessert. Man are we full. May nap before dessert. I almost forgot. They have a little gift shop as well.

I am from El Paso, Texas and had seen a story on TV and on social media about this restaurant. I had made a mental add on to my bucket list. This weekend my husband and I made it to the Dallas area to attend a wedding and guess where we stopped first, after picking up the rental? My heart, mind, and soul were VERY happy. Rosie (I hope that's correct) was very helpful, attentive and patient with us. THANK YOU!!

I loved it so so much!!! I love an entirely vegan restaurant. I got the fajita and the vanilla cream pastry. They were both chefs kisses so I had to get two frozen packs of the fajitas and another vanilla cream to go. For sure will be back!

This place is so damn good. What can I say. We are from Oklahoma and every time we come to Dallas this place is a must stop for us. The fajita meat is to die for, and I love be crispy chicharron too. It’s all so good and authentic. 10/10
