Tacos El Paraiso

Inadvertently went here while attempting to frequent another restaurant which happened to be closed. I'm so glad we stoppee in, the tacos were sooo good and very reasonably priced. Open space, lots of seating and great customer service. It was a weekday and every low key. It's located right off 252 and 85th. Would definitely return on purpose this time.

One of the few taco spots that I love! The workers are always friendly and the service is usually fast. The only thing is that when you walk into the restaurant it's quite dark inside and I wish it was a little brighter but other than that it was great! There is a parking lot with ample space.I always get the beef steak and tripe. This place has been my go to! They usually put a lot in the taco so I get full pretty quickly with 2-3 tacos. The menu looks like there are lots of options to choose from. I would like to try other things out, but the beef steak and tripe never disappoints. This taco restaurant is close to my house so, it is super convenient. Come support this local small business!

This place so reminds me of home. Family owned and such a sweet staff they cook up Mexican favorites that are so delicious, so non midwestern in such a relaxed down home environment. It's like sitting in a grandmas kitchen and enjoying family favorites, in this case my family loves sopes, street tacos, queso barria and unbelievable burritos. A true Mexican restaurant has red and green salsa in bottles and home made salsa to dip chips in. Drinks come in bottles and the flavors will haunt you! I am thankful it is close to where we live!!!

Definitely one of my favorite taco spots in the Twin Cities! My dad used to take my brother and I to the New Hope food truck, so that already provides a nostalgic vibe, but nostalgia aside, the tacos here are actually pretty good and are authentic street tacos. The Asada, lengua and tripa are very flavorful, with a well balanced meat, topping, tortilla ratio. Also, the green and red salsas are both spicy (not just "Minnesota Spicy") which I love!It's all counter serve but there's seats scattered throughout the small restaurant. Also, a small lot is available in front. Would recommend a visit to the restaurant or the food truck if you get the chance!

Great place for lunch and dinner! Affordable prices friendly staff and great customer service!

Unfortunately we did not have a good experience here. We stopped in on our way to a family members house and ordered to go. It wasn't too busy and there was maybe one order before me but it took a significant amount of time before our order was done. When I got to the car to check the order we realized we were missing something. I went back in and the guy at the front was adamant they made the dish and gave it to me. I had to go back out to my car and bring the bags back inside so he could check. After confirming we didn't receive the order, they started making it. Another 10-15 min later I was out the door again. My mom's fish tacos didn't have much meat in them. It was mostly breading. The choriqueso was unique. Not like any other queso dip I've had, however it tasted good. The nachos lacked cheese and weren't my favorite. The alambres were okay but the carnitas were tasty. Shortly after eating, though, we all started to feel nauseous and sick. It lasted all night and into the next morning. We won't be going back.

The people working are nice. The place is clean. The ambiance makes it clear take-out is the norm.The food, a big no. It was so, so greasy and the meats cooked into an unrecognizable mess with indistinguishable flavors. We will not return for a second chance meal, which we will often do if the meal is inconsistent. This was just bad.

Great Mexican food. My brother in law picked up dinner from here. I ordered the chicken flautas and they tasted like homemade (pretty close to my ex Mexican mother in laws). Everything that I tried from there was really good. Definitely want to order from there again!

The cabesa is the best I've ever had. Imagine what you wish pot roast tasted like ... in heaven. Well, that's what it's like.On the down side, the tripas are not crunchy as I like them, but still flavorful. For Minnesotans that are unfamiliar, these are called "chitlins" when you can find them elsewhere, which is not often. My favorites are at Gileberto's in Blaine. Another plus for this place: they give you a couple squeeze bottles of sauce. Much more civilized than a portion-control dingus you have to dribble out of. Overall, a terrific option especially in the suburbs. I will be back.

La torta hawaiana andan con toda madre la salsa bien rica Highly recommend had a Hawaiian torta was buzzing with the hot salsa with it so good
