A whole experience. A mountain of food so generous it could easily feed two people, layered like an edible masterpiece. The plate came overflowing with rice, beans, lettuce, tomato, cilantro, queso, and shredded cheese, all draped over perfectly seasoned chicken. Every bite felt warm and comforting, the kind of food that makes you pause mid‑conversation because the flavor hits you in waves. Creamy, crunchy, fresh, savory... everything balanced beautifully. I also tried the al pastor, and it was incredible. Tender, juicy, with that perfect hint of sweetness and char that makes al pastor unforgettable. You can taste the love and intention in every bite. I loved that you could see the pineapple chunks because usually places just use pineapple juice . The atmosphere was cozy, the service was kind, and the food felt like it was made by people who care. If you're anywhere near Alachua, do yourself a favor and stop here. This place deserves all the stars.

Best Taco's in Alachua County and maybe even in Florida! Great service, incredible people, and…read morereally comfortable atmosphere. Great taste for the price too. I was very satisfied with the portions, and everything is made fresh to order. Presentation is really top notch. If you can't tell, I think the place and the people are amazing. Family owned too, so definitely a place to frequent and support. They also make the cakes(tres leches) in house! Seriously impressive place. I would recommend 10/10. Thanks so much Cilantro tacos team!

The location was pretty empty and i noticed pretty quickly it was really clean, as was the bathroom. I was waited on quickly and the cashier was really friendly, however i got stuck behind a bunch of large orders so getting my meal did take a lot larger than i would have wanted. The food itself though was great. It was so fresh and hot it literally burned my mouth- not sure if that's a good thing. I ordered the three tender meal that comes with their seasoned fries and toast and i tried their fried cheese balls. The cheese balls were delicious. I love their crinkle fries but wish they'd go a little lighter on their seasoning. The chicken is juicy and the breading is great. And you can't forget to get some extra ranch and zax sauce.

It wasn't exactly what I was going for, but that's more on me than the place. We also got a Pick Two combo: a strawberry banana smoothie (with oat milk, banana, strawberries, flax seeds, and agave) and the Thai Chicken Crunch salad (romaine, red cabbage, roasted chicken, carrots, celery, and wontons). Everything was decent and fresh, just nothing that really stood out flavor-wise. We took everything to go since we were busy getting her room set up, and it worked for what we needed--a quick, fairly healthy option. One thing I wish they offered was a smaller portion size; everything felt a bit too much for a light lunch.

I have to say I've had many Cuban sandwich's before but this Cuban sandwich was the BEST! I love the flavor of seasoned pork they use as well as the Boars Head Meat. I do believe all those makes the difference. If you like Cuban sandwich's you must try this one. Also our friends with us ordered the #12 Uncle Drew Monte Cristo and shared and they loved it! All the staff were super friendly! It took about 10 minutes for us to get our sandwich's. Everything was clean and well kept. Definitely recommend The Paper Bag!

Weekends are a tough time to go here, as it tends to be very busy during that time, but I had some time off on a weekday and went there for a late lunch, and that did the trick. The place is laid out like a pretty standard sports bar. There is a bar close to the veranda that allows folks on the veranda to order as well as those inside, and bar seating on both sides. I sat at the bar since I was solo this time around, and quickly got a menu to go through what they have. The menu is pretty standard, but there were one or two combo platters that are not as common. I went for the ribs and wings platter. The wings were nice, had a smoky flavor to them. The ribs were a st louis style cut, and also had a nice flavor. Not really sure that the place has barbecue as their primary food... more likely they are aimed at making burgers and steaks in the kitchen. However, the food was good, the folks working there were nice, and I enjoyed my meal. Try to catch the place when it isn't insanely busy.

Like crescent roll dough, the seams didn't always stay together, and mine seemed like it could have used an extra minute in the oven. Other than that, it contributed to a good Ham and Swiss spinwich, rather thick-sliced meat with cheese, tomato, lettuce and plenty of mayo. It came with potato chips (Ruffles?) and I chose the fruit salad (mostly grapes, some pineapple and honeydew.) We started with the Hungarian Mushroom Soup (special of the day), which was excellent, very dark and with a lot of earthy flavor. It came with a piece of the same bread for dipping.

This restaurant has an entry on the corner of the building, with outdoor seating along one side of the building. I opted for the outdoor seating as it was a nice day. I was escorted out to my table, and my drink order was taken. Going through the menu, I opted for a burger with fries. It was quite pleasant out, and waiting for my food was not a problem. The burger was quite good, and the fries were decent as well. The price point is a bit more than most of the sports bars out there, but the Tioga area tends to boost the cost of things a bit. All in all, a nice place to have a bite to eat. I can see this place being very good for brunch.

Sitting here wondering what it is that doesn't draw me to this place time and again. Because don't…read moreget me wrong the food is good here. It's been about a year since our last visit and here's what I've come up with. 1. The water is terrible. Please buy a filter. I think it's the worst water I've had in a Gainesville restaurant. 2. This place can't decide if it's a restaurant or bar. It's loud. Very loud when full. I couldn't even understand the server and my husband had to sit next to me. The bar is the focal point. It should really be in the other room off to the side. It takes up too much space and it's obnoxiously loud. 3. The menu: Again. It's a bar menu. Large selection of handhelds. Few limited mains. Some salads. There are appetizers but this is the weakest link on the menu. 4. I usually love their off menu drinks. But they were both lacking tonight. I even asked for more purée to boost the flavor. The problem was I couldn't taste the gin. Just seltzer. The issue I have when I go out to dinner I'm looking for a meal I won't make at home and although there is a huge chunk of the population that doesn't really care what they eat as long as they don't have to make it , I don't fall in that category. I'm a foodie. Have traveled the world and know a good meal when it sits in front of me. The food here is decent but the ambience and awful water leaves me coming here last minute to find a bite. But seriously, buy a filter for your tap. The clientele will thank you.
