In a tiny, inconspicuous building on Oak Street, there’s a big time restaurant that – if you’ve never been – belongs on your list of restaurants to try in the very near future. When you grab a bite from Taqueria San Luis in Palestine, Texas, you’ll see why. It offers up some of the best Mexican food you will can find in the area.
Humble Beginnings
Taqueria San Luis was started by the Villalobos family in the early 2010s as a walkup taco stand. Later, they purchased the building they were in so their customers could order inside and remain there to eat or take their food outside. According to online reviews, what you get from Taqueria San Luis’ quaint setting is some of the most delicious food you will find in town. The family recipes come from founders Flor and Clemente Villalobos, and its all made fresh daily.
