If you’re in the 75227 or anywhere near East Dallas, chances are someone’s already told you about our tacos. At El Palote, we make every dish from scratch using time-honored family recipes and vibrant vegan ingredients.

We always visit El Palote when we visit Dallas from San Antonio. We love their taco plate and the pan Dulce. We always take extra pan Dulce to enjoy during the week. Highly recommend the visit, the staff is extremely nice and attentive.
Absolutely delicious! I've tried many dishes here, and none of them disappoint! I'm so happy that there is a vegan restaurant with authentic Mexican food and flavors. Their pan dulce is so good. The staff is always kind and friendly. Vegan or not, you need to try El Palote!
Due to my wife's dairy allergy, it can be quite hard to find a place she can eat at with no worries, which is one of the reasons we had decided to stop on by. Upon entering El Palote Panaderia we immediately fell in love with the place. The flavors are amazing and well balanced, and the service was top notch. Next ... time we are in the area we will be sure to stop back by! Read More
I visited Dallas while I was doing a Daniel's Fast. What was I thinking??? I couldn't partake in Texas BBQ or Mexican Food so I thought. I stumbled across a review about El Palote and decided to give them a try. I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the brisket tacos and a tortas sandwich(even though I couldn't eat ... the bread dew to my fast). Everything was flavorful and satisfied my my craving for Mexican cuisine. I will definitely visit next time I'm in Dallas, fasting or not. Read More
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!
Highly recommend El Palote, thier food is incredible and reasonably priced. They serve traditional Mexican food veganized. You can order freah or frozen food to take home. Picked up a variety of plant based meats for tamales and tacos!
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. Read More
