El Paraiso Mexican Restaurant

We had been passing by this restaurant when grocery shopping and finally stopped in one Saturday last month. Very happy we did!! The restaurant is cute and clean and has indoor seating and what looks like patio seating but inside the old mall. The staff working were very friendly and attentive.
The food was great!! My husband had a chorizo and egg plate, I enjoyed the Bistek a la Mexicana plus a cup of menudo, and our niece had the Al Pastor tacos. The chips and salsa were complimentary and very good!
The chorizo was flavorful and came w corn tortillas, potatoes and beans. The Bistek a la Mexicana had tender, perfectly marinated fajita beef and eggs and beans. The menudo was pretty good!! It had the best consistency and full of flavor and a good ratio of meat and hominy. The Al pastor tacos are really good and I will definitely try my own next time we are there! The tacos came w a side salsa and it was spicy and delicious, a great pairing for those tacos!

Their food reminds me of something you’d eat at your grandma’s house (in the best way). Very cozy & delicious. The staff was very friendly, too!

I had an omelette with peppers, tomato, onions, cheese & shared the most savory, warmest albóndiga soup with my husband. Everything was very tasty!

We wanted to go back the next day, but they were closed. Next time.

Great joint. Friendly staff and quick service. Great chips and salsa and numerous wonderful lunch specials

Excellent Google restaurant recommendation. Everyone enjoyed everything. Salsa is interesting, more like pico than traditional salsa, and contains some interesting herb, as pictures on the side of the bowl. Not sure what that is but it's adds interesting flavor to the salsa making it unique. Large group of 9 containing kiddos seated almost immediately. Waiter was great. As typically speaking the red sauce has the heat and the green has flavor. Christmas is available for the sauces! Love that lunch specials included tea or coffee!
