Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is a well know steak house in Hermosillo, the service was bad, the servent did not offer to cut our steak in front of us instead just brought the steak already cut. We ask the steak as the second plate and they bring our...salad and the steak at the same. time. The steak was ok, but there are better options in town.More

Just came from the place. It was great. On walking in through the 12 foot doors (!?), I immediately thought I was in for another high priced good but not great meal. I was wrong. The meat menu appears pricey but not out of line...with most steak houses in Hermosillo. The regular stuff on the menu was completely reasonable. One thing that got me as soon as we sat down was how quiet it was. The music was turned down to a non-Latino level, conversations from neighbouring tables was muted, not unlike some places that have the acoustics of a fuel drum. It's nice to be able to hear a conversation. Good meal. Pollo de Palominos served on a hot iron and queso fundido appy. And the queso wasn't the normal bucket size that leaves no room for dinner. Sometime less is more. Attentive but not overbearing service. Secure parking underground. What's not to like?More

Service 8/10 attentive waiter. Food flavor 8/10 lots mesquite. Decor 7/10 bland. Price 8/10 reasonable for what you get. Quality 5/10 (falsely advertise Ribeye Prime grade but its more like an average Choice grade) I challange you to ask the waiter to bring you the...raw ribeye your about to eat and check out its marbling. I was dissapointed because i was expecting marbeling according to a Prime grade as advertised in their menu. I did talked to manager but he argued that is what they get from their supplier Rancho 17. Craft beer is limited to 4 options (no ipa), wine list is limited to some good options but a bit over priced than other restaurants. May give it another try in a couple of months hopefuly they will get better.More

I ate here 3 times while at a conference and based at a hotel nearby. The tuna was excellent quality as were the salads - the brownie cheesecake was not worth having. Perhaps their steaks are the best thing on their menu from the testimony...of other reviews but i can’t confirm this. When we came in for a business meeting it was hard to persuade them to turn the music down a bit in the area we were seated. It’s a sports bar vibe at certain times of day (even when fairly empty) and they don’t seem to want to accommodate customers who want to hear each other talk. It took ages for them to sort out our bill that time as well - about 20 minutes or more - and whereas on one occasion they were happy to split the bill this was not possible the second visit.More

We had a fabulous meal that was one of the packages for a large family. All the meat was perfectly cooked and had great accompaniments. Love it.

Palomino's is located near the Rio district which close to shopping malls and hotels. We were staying at the Hotel Lucerna so we decided to eat here. There is ample parking in an underground lot and there is also an outdoor lounge and bar area....The main restaurant is elegant and traditional. There are many tables for private parties as well as not large groups. They offer a wide selections of meats, side dishes, salads, wines and desserts. There were two of us and we shared the Palomino Platter with included a very generous portion of Arrachera (the best in Sonora Steaks), two beef ribs, tripitas de leche (grilled cow utters) salad, tortillas, salsa, beans and two coyotes del pueblo for dessert. The service was fast and very attentive and we had three waiters waiting on us. The restaurant is clean and modern. I would highly recommend Palpmino's for a fantastic dinner.More

This was a knock out steak. With all the side dishes it's difficult not to hurt your before you finish. Definitely a up beat restaurant so bring a good credit card.

We had an issue with the service as our waiter was slow and didn't pay much attention to us. I ordered the Wine menu and never got it so I didn't bother asking again. We ordered the Palomino's Plate for 2 and was great which...consisted of Cabreria, Tripe and ribs accompanied with beans and tortillas and salad. It really does cost much as some people say.More

I'll startby saying that the steaks were amazing, probably one of the best I ever had. Bug thumbs up! The reast of the food was good but not extraordinary. I wish they had better salsas. We went there on Dec 26 and the place was...packed. Long story short, the restaurant was not ready to serve so many people. Here are some lowlights: - we were sitted on a table for 6 when we were a party of 8. - we had to request the menus because they never ofered them to us. - we had to actually walk to the server to remind him we had requested salt/pepper several times and he kept forgetting to bring it. - tripitas de leche were delivered to our table when we finished our meal. The waitress came seceral time to the table giving excuses as of why they were late but failed to deliver them on time. We took them home and were delicious but again, that's not what we wanted. We wanted to have them at the restaurant as part of our meal. Our recommendation for the owners would be to hire extra staff and review procedures for days when demand is high. Look at this as an investment to avoid compromising quality for quantity. Altough the steaks were amazing unfortunately we were unable to have a good experience because the service was poor.More

Great place to escape from the heat (temperature) of Hermosillo. But especially the mixed grill as suggested by the waiter was a real hit. Excellent meat (Hermosillo is famous for it's meat). For Mexican standards I would not consider this a cheap restaurant. But it...is well worth the money spend. Not to forget to mention the service. Excellent assist from the waiter. Very good approach to his clients. Top service for top food I would say!More

Everything was great about this restaurant. The food and people were fantastic. The appetizer was great. We had a thin cut tender steak on fajitas. The guacamole and salsa was really good. The main course was a platter of steaks, some of which could be...cut with a fork. For dessert we had strawberries cooked with brandy over ice cream that was fantastic to finish off a great dinner. Some English was spoken by a few people which helped, but we were there with Spanish speaking folks as well so it made it much easier.More

Try one of the Mixed Grills. Ours was delicious. Arrachera and Cabrería. Tender, cooked perfectly to order (rare) and served with a chile, potato, grilled three-color peppers and tortilla. Have guac and fire beans with chips, too. Great service, English menus available upon request, some...English spoken.More
