    Was recently in the neighborhood and decided to pop in and grab a (very) late lunch/early dinner and was very pleasantly surprised by this little gem! First of all, the inside was very neat and clean - well organized and bright and happy. The service was excellent - prompt, friendly, and helpful. The chips and nice a crunchy, you can tell they’re made in house. The salsa is fresh and just spicy enough - both excellent. I had the shredded chicken flauta plate. Same goes for flautas - totally homemade and piping hot from the fryer. Beans and rice were also very tasty. One minor place for improvement - rice and beans could have been a bit warmer. I will absolutely be back - can’t wait to try more menu items.

    I live down the street and love, love, loveeeee El Paraiso. The owners are super sweet. Inside is clean, no sticky tables or floors, and no weird smells. Breakfast is served all day! Great barbacoa and I love their flour tortillas. Definitely homemade with love! If you get breakfast tacos to go, they are packaged in one container rather than individually wrapped in foil. One thing I do wish is that they offered pancakes for breakfast, and papas fritas & chicken tenders for children that won’t eat Mexican food.

    Been coming here since the crocker days and it's always consistent and always spectacular. It's now a 40 minute drive away and we still make the journey because it's that good! The staff are very welcoming and always super accommodating to our demanding and diverse needs.

    I'm working on a remodel project in the are and needed some lunch. Found this place and saw the ratings were good. I stopped and had tacos all carbon, they were delicious. My colleague had a shrimp taco and chicken taquetos. Man the service and food was really good we came back the next day for lunch again. That will be my next review.

    Great little spot. Fresh tasty food and the portions are filling. Prices are where they need to be and the atmosphere is open and spotless. It's my new spot to eat at and its right by my house. The breakfast is great as well!
