El Paisa — Restaurant in Dallas

The Mexican restaurant, El Paisa, may be the smallest in Dallas, but it certainly packs a punch when it comes to delivering delicious food. I have tried various dishes here, but it's their burritos that truly steal the show.

The first thing that strikes me about their burritos is their size. It's hard to believe that a single burrito can be so substantial. Whether I opt for just half or indulge in the entire burrito, I am always left satisfied and sometimes even stuffed. The portions are truly generous, making it a great value for money.

What sets El Paisa apart from other Mexican restaurants is their dedication to creating flavorful rice. Usually, rice and beans are seen as mere accompaniments, but here, the rice takes center stage. It is bursting with flavor, each grain perfectly seasoned, and has a moist and tender texture. It's so good that I find myself not needing to mix it with beans or anything else.

The overall dining experience at El Paisa is delightful. Despite its small size, the atmosphere is cozy and inviting. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring that you feel welcomed and well taken care of. The aroma of sizzling meats and spices fills the air, instantly whetting your appetite.

If you're a fan of Mexican cuisine and are looking for a hidden gem, El Paisa is the place to be. Don't let its size fool you; the flavors here are big and bold. Whether you're craving a mouthwatering burrito or want to experience the tastiest rice, this restaurant won't disappoint. Give it a try, and you'll see why El Paisa has earned its reputation as a must-visit Mexican...

WORST restaurant ever! My family parked at the restaurant just for it to get TOWED! The adults wanted to get something from the restaurant next to it so we went there first hoping to come back to order food for the kids but once we got served in the restaurant next to it we realized our whole van was gone! We contacted the police and everything just to find out the restaurant works with a towing company, this is robbery the company should always contact the owners of the vehicle letting them now that their vehicle has been towed! No sort of contact was made and left us one the road with nothing, wondering where the heck our van was! Do not come here if u don’t wanna end up midnight tryna get ur vehicle back! There was also no sign that said our vehicles can get towed, right next to the white jeep was our black Tahoe, there was...

Stopped by today 2/17/22 to try place out since my bf raves about the food.. well let’s just say my experience here was ok.. Food was good but service is horrible. Walked in and there was commotion in the kitchen.. while my bf and i were deciding on what to eat not once did they stop hollering or cursing. Finally a guy walked up and saw us and told the rest of the employees there were customer up front.. Now the little girl taking the order had a very bad attitude and made faces when we questioned the food options. To top it off she still had the nerve to curse in front of us.. Food was good but not good enough for us to want to come back.. Owner should really consider his staff… 1 star because of horrible service even though...
