Las Palmas Mexican Restaurante

Las Palmas Mexican Restaurante has been a cornerstone of Nashville's culinary scene since 1990, with this Nippers Corner location opening in 1992. Family-owned and operated, this beloved restaurant has earned the title of Best Mexican Restaurant in the Nashville Scene Readers' Poll for eleven consecutive years. Located at 15560 Old Hickory Boulevard in the Nippers Corner shopping center (anchored by Publix), Las Palmas serves the southeast Nashville community with authentic, made-from-scratch Mexican cuisine. The restaurant features a full bar with handcrafted margaritas including the popular Cucumber Jalapeño (made with 1800 blue agave) and the lighter Skniy Margarita. The covered patio provides year-round outdoor dining, while happy hour runs Monday through Friday from 2 to 6pm with half-price draft beer and house margaritas. The LP Special remains the star of the menu—choose two grilled proteins with onions and bell peppers, served over Mexican rice and topped with melted cheese. The extensive menu also offers fajitas, street tacos, burritos, enchiladas, nachos, and combination plates. Families appreciate the generous portions, while the Fajita Meal Pack feeds ten people for $170. Seniors 60+, military, law enforcement, EMTs, firefighters, and college students enjoy exclusive discounts. Open Monday through Thursday 11am-9:30pm, Friday 11am-10pm, Saturday 11am-9:30pm, and Sunday 11am-9pm.
