  So great. If you like really spicy things, I definitely recommend you ask for the spicy green sauce-it’s creamy looking and SO GOOD. Great as a dipping sauce for the fried plantains, too. YUM!

  Best Salvadorean Food in St. Paul. First point – this isn’t a Mexican place. The folks who run La Palma are primarily Salvadoran, and their menu offerings reflect this fact. Naturally, Salvadoran food does share a great deal in common with Mexican, but they have their own take on a number of dishes – and offer several things you’ll just not find in a typical (Tex) Mex or Mexi-Cali eatery. Like pupusas!!!What’s a pupusa? It’s a somewhat thick, corn masa pancake that’s filled with any number of different meats and/or cheeses, and frequently a combination of several. They are traditionally served with a two-part condiment of mildly picked shredded cabbage (think Central American cole slaw) and a thin, runny tomato sauce. The idea is to use the sauce as a dressing for the cabbage – adding it just prior to eating. The food here at Cafe La Palma, is fabulous!!!! Everything I’ve seen, smelled, tasted or touched has come across as highly authentic and very much home-made-y. My advice? If it looks good, it IS good – you’ll love it, and you’ll have plenty of it. If you’re unsure, don’t be shy – ask for a little sample, and they’ll come through for you. The portions are full-days-work generous, and only once have I been able to finish off everything put in front of me in a single sitting. Plain and simple, this place sets out some really serious grub.Prices are quite reasonable, though a few of those mysterious menu offerings, some with lovely photos, do rise into the $10-15 range…

  Great Food. The food is just like your South American grandmother would make. The restaurant has a mix of spicy and flavorful south of the border cuisines. I recommend ordering the prepared fare behind the deli. Otherwise, I have had some great authentic corn tortilla tacos with lengua, carne asada, or pollo fresh from the kitchen. The staff is always friendly and helpful with recommendations. FYI, the restaurant is located in the back of the market.
