El Parian Mexican Restaurant

I eat lunch there one a week, it's always great, service is outstanding and friendly. Draft beer is cold. This little place is best in Ecity for consistency of great. Love a great consistent place for good mex.

I love authentic tacos but it does not exist here. We would go to Taco Bell before we come here for tacos. Great establishment. Staff is always friendly. The building could use some improvements but it is nice and cozy. The menu compared to authentic Mexican restaurants is very different. Especially if you're from the southwest border or Hispanic. We have come here a couple times in the last couple years and it is okay. Not very flavorful and a bit bland. Large portions if you love rice and beans and salt and pepper. As for the tacos it was our first time coming here for that on taco Tuesday. We wanted to try their $1 tacos. And I must say you get what you pay for LOLIt is like a taco out of a box and if you enjoy that for a $1 with no flavor come here. However you will not find flavor or options here. We ordered 12 tacos. All that was available was ground beef and shredded chicken. And it was just that with some bland cheese and lettuce on cold tortillas. So, if you're looking for authentic tacos this is not the place to explore. But if your looking for below basic and have no expectations, enjoy some salt and pepper, and saving money it's worth a shot. We were able to give our leftovers to a homeless person in the area and we then went to plaza azteca to enjoy authentic tacos for taco Tuesday.

Sunday evening dinner time, we were sat immediately and our drink order taken.The salsa is really good with a little bit of spice to it. It goes well with the chips and white sauce.The meal along with the service was very nice I recommend.Cheers!

The outside looks a little dinky but the food is fantastic!!!! Inside is small but cozy. This felt like a very authentic place without the pizzazz that some other Mexican restaurants have. I'll always choose an authentic spot with great food over a flashy one with mediocre food. I got a regular margarita on the rocks, it came with a good fruit garnish. I asked my server if the fish tacos were good, she said yes... they were possibly the best fish tacos I've ever had. The tomatillo salsa they come with is spicy and it paired perfectly with the grilled fish tacos. The salsa with the chips was also great. I was checked in on several times by my server and who I presume to have been the manager. I'm only in town for work, but I'll likely come back before I leave!

I am addicted to their Tortas! OMG the Cubana is my go to. It's been hard to find decent Mexican food since I left Cali and Arizona. Especially places that make tortas. We go in to eat, order it to go, or have it Door Dashed to us!

Good food, great service! Very attentive staff, we loved the dip that came with the chips and salsa. We'll be back!

I came here today and the food was delicious and had good portion size to fill you up, they also had 1$ margaritas they do it every Thursday, they were a good size to! Our server was great and very attentive I will defiantly be coming back here and coming every Thursday!

I like that the food doesn't taste like something they cooked earlier and just reheated in a microwave as some other Mexican restaurants do. It has a really delicious taste, and I am very picky. I asked for hot sauce and they actually made me some. The service was very good also.What I didn't like was that the prices on the bill were 1 or 2 dollars higher per item than listed on the menu. That's not ok.

We have been going here pretty much weekly for years and are usually satisfied not recently and today was the final straw. The last 3 time the food has been barely good and the service poor. Today our waiter was very rude. My chicken nachos first had guacamole on them which I had requested it not have guacamole. Secon plate was small and nasty, very little chicken and no cheese sauce. It disappoints us that the service was terrible and the food worse.

First time eating there. The Mexican food is authentic and delicious! We have been making our own Mexican food since moving from SoCal to NC. We have finally found a Mexican restaurant serving delicious food like we were used to having in SoCal family owned Mexican eating establishments. My daughter and son-in-law have eaten here several times and clued me in. I will be back and bring my husband! Service is outstanding.
