Excellent splurge dinner. Great view on the balcony. Our server Juan B. Was excellent, knew when to be attentive and when not to. Food was incredible, pork shank especially. read more

Delicious, upscale Mexican food (reminds me of Long Island's BESITO) with great ambience and decor to boot. Huge dining area upstairs (they have an elevator, or one can take the stairs). I'm not worldly enough to know what the decor style is called; I just know that I loved it. Paseo was packed... as I would expect on a Saturday night... I'm so glad my daughter had made a reservation. Unfortunately, I will still full from brunch at the Storyteller's Cafe earlier in the day, so I only ordered a chicken Caesar salad, which was delicious. I probably would've otherwise ordered their chicken en mole, which my daughter did order, and I tasted. Wow !! It was AMAZING ! I did have a few chips, the salsa and some guac, but I found the guac to be a bit heavy on the lime... or perhaps, lemon, not sure. It was still quite good, just not my preference. My other daughter ordered short ribs, which she (and my husband) loved. My husband ordered the chile rellenos but said they were too spicy. I've never had any that were spicy, so I was a bit shocked by his statement. I didn't taste them, so I don't know. There were others in our party, but I don't remember (or if I ever knew) what they ordered or if they liked their dish. I would definitely come back here the next time we're in Downtown Disney, and I'd order the chicken en mole. The Caesar salad was great, but I'd much prefer to get an authentic dish and to not be so full from a meal earlier in the day, lol. read more

The service here is really nice like they know they need to over sell and over come the not great food. I have a rule that if you order an old fashioned and they give you soda ice in it you know the food isn't going to be great. That rule holds true here. The old fashioned was basic and the use of corn liquor makes me question if it should be called an old fashioned. It was very smooth but not what one would except when ordering an old fashioned. The guac is fine Chipotle's is better. The snapper is served spatchcock style which I've never seen before and found odd. It's covered with a sweet and spicy bbq sauce. It also comes covered with avocado, pickled onions and jalapeño and herbs like mint, cilantro and micro greens. Biting into piece of mint was odd as well. The tortillas were apparently three different types of masa mashed together. Dry and tasteless. The pork shank came with some bland dry mashed black beans and a red roasted salsa. The salsa was actually good and would have went nicely with the gauc it wasn't really useful with the pork shank. Follow my rule - soda ice in an old fashioned equals stay away. read more

Paseo itself is lovely - a bit more upscale than your usual theme park dining. The restaurant is located in the heart of Downtown Disney on a second floor balcony overlooking the district. On a Friday night, we were able to walk in after a 30 minute wait.  We sat on the balcony and had a beautiful view of the fireworks. The cocktails were great. I really liked the Manguiri, a rum based cocktail with mango and peach. The Tropipop Crush was interesting and refreshing. The appetizers were excellent. The black truffle beef tartare was the clear standout. The beef was fresh, buttery, and rich with a subtle sweetness to it. The black truffle was perfectly balanced - not too much and not too little. All the flavors worked together beautifully. The accompanying brioche was simply excellent as well - cut into perfect triangles and lightly toasted on all sides. We also really enjoyed the gruyere fondue. Everything was perfectly seasoned, full of flavor, and delicious.  For my entree, I had the carne asada New York strip, which came with a side of roasted fingerling potatoes and fondue. The steak was cooked perfectly. The potatoes and cheese together were a fun side.  The food and ambiance of Paseo were so nice, so I am baffled as to why service felt so subpar. Our server was Ricardo A., and there were several things that rubbed us the wrong way about service that night.  First, our server didn't seem to know the menu. We asked him several questions about the food and drinks and did not receive satisfactory answers. Is the horchata more cinnamon or sugar forward? What do you recommend between this or that? Our questions were answered with uncertainty and uncomfortable pauses.  Second, he became almost non-existent for the second half of dinner service. We tried to flag down other servers to pay, but were ignored by all of them, which is crazy because by that time the restaurant wasn't even busy. One server was even wearing Airpods as he walked past us! Eventually, we were fed up and took the check to the host stand to process our payment.  Third, attitude. When our server finally returned for the check, we informed him that one of us had already taken the check to process payment (because yes, it indeed took that long). And instead of apologizing he had the nerve to be upset. "I am your payment processor," he said before he stormed off. Are you joking? If our "payment processor" had been available, or if anyone else had been available, do you really think we would've had to walk the check up ourselves? For a staff member to scold restaurant guests for having to take matters into their own hands instead of apologizing for service issues is absolutely baffling to me. For the kind of upscale establishment that Paseo asserts itself as, the service we received was embarrassing. It's not like we were at a character-themed restaurant with Chip and Dale walking around - this was a restaurant with a menu developed by a Michelin-starred chef. A restaurant featured in articles and where the average price of an entree is $40-$60. To me, the service we received was unacceptable. read more

Beautiful restaurant located right in Downtown Disney with an upstairs dining area that overlooks downtown Disney...We made reservations ahead of time, and I definitely recommend doing the same because it gets very busy and wait times can be long. We ordered the mole dish, enchiladas, and a couple of drinks, while my kids had the chicken strips and burrito. Everything was absolutely delicious, especially the mole! The restaurant was very clean, including the restrooms, and the overall atmosphere was wonderful. We truly loved our experience here and can't wait to come back! read more

This upscale Latin restaurant has high quality cocktails and wine list. The margaritas were fresh and great. The restaurant patio balcony has some of the best people watching during lunch or dinner. The Caesar salad was made of baby romaine and had a custom creamery dressing. It was one of the best salads. We tried their ribeye steak and New York strip. It was some of the best steak we tried in a long time. The chicken mole was also home made and delicious. Wait staff was very good, friendly and attentive. We absolutely loved it here. read more

Right in the middle of downtown Disney. You can validate your parking, but you still owe $10 as of Mar 2026. Full service, sitdown restaurant. Recommend making a reservation. You can dress casual, but it feels upscale. Don't go if you're price sensitive, but at least you get 10% off if you have a Disney pass (or at least the version we do). One small plate (tostada), one big plate (short ribs), an order of guac, and one kids meal was enough for our fam of 4 (includes preschooler and toddler). You can taste the quality and everything was delicious! read more

One of the best experiences of our weekend get-away. We visited on Monday 2/16, later in the evening around 8:30. We had a very rough day and another restaurant was not very accommodating, even with a reservation for several weeks, they told us the wait would be another hour! We were able to snag a last minute rez for Paseo. Our check in was smooth and we felt very welcomed. We were seated within mins and our server was Yadira. She was so accommodating and sweet. Outstanding service. The food was AMAZING. We had guacamole and chips, oysters and enchiladas. The enchiladas had chicken shredded and the sauce so delicious. Chefs kiss! We will definitely dine here again. read more

Paseo - Mexican Near Me - Anaheim, California

Located in Downtown Disney, Paseo offers modern and elevated Mexican cuisine by a Michelin-starred chef. The dishes are delicious and beautifully presented. My favorites were the mejillones (mussels), smoked salmon pate and tuna ceviche - each small plate is packed with flavor and great for sharing. The black truffle steak tartare seemed like it lacked proper seasoning so I'd probably skip that one. My bf really enjoyed the grilled octopus and would recommend it. For drinks, the manguiri cocktail packed a strong, fruity punch. The well fashioned is a non-alcoholic drink. It doesn't taste anything like an old fashioned, but it's still a fun option if you want something celebratory without the alcohol. I loved the ambience and overall vibes of the restaurant. We sat near the window and were able to catch the Disneyland fireworks during dinner, which was a really nice touch. Paseo is a great option for dinner after a day at the parks. read more

We had reservations at 5pm and checked in a few minutes before and walked up the stairs to be seated in a table for four. Although open to outdoors, we were inside where it was cooler as the day was a little warm. We ordered a lot of food and everything was prepared perfectly. We really enjoyed our meal and look forward to coming again soon. read more

After going to Centrico, we went here to their sister spot and sat at the bar, and honestly it was a completely different experience. The bar was packed , but we found a spot toward the back and the bartender came to us immediately, we literally felt VIP. The service was amazing from the start. The place itself is beautiful, such a great vibe. We ended up ordering food and it did not disappoint. We got oysters and enchiladas and everything was so good! definitely a highlight of the night. 10/10 experience, we will absolutely be going back. read more

Located in Downtown Disney, Paseo is a great sit down restaurant for families or dates. The ambiance of this place is very modern and beautiful. We went for dinner and each table had their own contemporary table lamp which really set the mood. Service was amazing and the food was good. Four stars were given since one of the items we ordered was just okay. I highly recommend the yellowtail tartare and garlic fries. My friend had the Caesar salad and that was amazing. The chicken enchiladas was the one we did not like. There was nothing special about its taste and the food temperature could have been warmer. Our drinks were good. I had the manguiri and though there is no lychee in the drink, I tasted it. That was a delightful surprise. The ritual margarita was floral, fruity, sweet, and sour. A good combination to have in a margarita. There were hints of guava and ginger in it. I recommend trying this place, especially at night, with a date. read more

Been wanting to try this restaurant from the well known chef Carlos Gaytán Let's talk about the restaurant itself, it's beautiful and well planned like any other patina group restaurant. Service: it's ok! Hostess very careless and doing the minimum, the server was ok, not too informative about the menu or the drinks. The ambiance on top is excellent and perfect for any occasion. Now the most important thing here the food, everything was great, a little to monotonous but still everything had sazón. I recommend you to try the tlayuda! We order plenty of food but Definitely not a restaurant for me. You need to try it to see if it's a restaurant for you. read more

First time trying Paseo for brunch, and it was pretty good. I expected it to be a bit busier as we dined the weekend before Christmas. However, we were easily able to get a table outside with no reservation. I got the huarache de asada which was yummy!! It's good Paseo is in Downtown Disney cos I needed to walk after eating that whole dish as fast as I did. My mom got the chilaquiles and added flank steak. The steak on her order was really tough compared to mine. She genuinely did not enjoy it since it was so difficult to chew, which sucks since she paid extra for the steak to be added. My grandma got the breakfast burrito and she liked it. The sauce on top was a bit too much for her. Because the burrito was such a good size, she ended up taking the rest of her burrito home. Would I go back for brunch? Probably not. But I'd love to come back and try their dinner menu. read more

I generally have pretty low expectations for touristy areas, but the food here was truly excellent and I'm glad we made a reservation a few days before we came to Disney Super chic and modern interior, excellent service, intriguing cocktail menu, and delicious food! I'm pretty picky about guacamole and often find restaurant guacamole, either too lemony or bland or not salty enough etc - but their version was perfectly spot on and comes with really addictive fresh tortilla chips. The butternut squash soup was also perfectly flavored and just slightly creamy- just wonderful after a long day of walking . I liked the the cheese on the Esquites corn were sprinkled on top - so you could mix it in. roasted rainbow trout was pricy but totally worth it - huge whole food, super tender with unique flavoring spread on top . Loved it ! Overall highly recommend for a dinner while you're in downtown Disney ! read more

Celebrated my mom's birthday today at Paseo! As we mourned Tortilla Joes closing , we went to try the new mexican place that was hyped up by foodies and yelp alike! Our server (I think his name was Ricardo?) was sooo sweet and attentive! Everything we ordered was delicious. If you like carnitas, the cochinita pibil tacos is the way to go! Me and my mom split this one and ordered a few extra tortillas and the meat was so tender it fell off the bone. My brother ordered the new york steak and liked how seasoned it was, overall everything was perfectly salted, and desserts were not too sweet (also perfect). Dessert was phenomenal and I highly reccomend the pavlova, the crunchy merengue with the fruity sorbet and jam inside was super yummy! It's fun cracking into it with your spoon! Overall this restaurant was phenomenal, so much so we kept talking about how good the food was on our way home! Thank you to the wonderful staff and chefs for a lovely meal! read more

Absolutely Worth the Visit! We came here for Christmas brunch and everything was incredible. We started with the Tlayuda for the table and it was perfect for sharing. My personal favorite was the Paseo Waffles. Every bite was rich, balanced, and absolutely delicious. We also ordered the Huevos Rancheros and Torta de Chilaquiles - both comforting, flavorful, and executed so well. The Smoked Salmon Pâté felt elevated and fresh, and even the Kids Breakfast Burrito was a hit! Our server, Teresa, was amazing - warm, attentive, and so helpful with recommendations. Great food, beautiful dishes, and exceptional service. We left full and happy, and we'll definitely be back. read more

When you don't have a Disney reservation, a downtown Disney night is your next best option! We've passed by Paseo enough to be intrigued by the promise of an upscale dining experience at Disney so when we decided to come get our steps here on a weekday evening, we also made a reservation at Paseo. It's nestled next to Tiendita so you might miss it as it only has seating on the second floor. It's essentially upscale Mexican dining. I liked that they got a little more adventurous with the flavors relative to your average Disney experience but I don't think it always paid off. I got the old fashioned and the smokiness was just overdone, it almost made me feel a little sick. I think pairing it with the tlayuda was overkill since there was something smoky on here too that just didn't work for me personally. The chicken enchiladas saved the day but honestly, we're not anything super special. My favorite part (as always) was the sweet treat. We went with the seasonal snowman special. So cute and yummy and unique! Gruyère ice cream sounds a little strange at first but it paired perfectly with the orange gel. It was very refreshing but also creamy? I loved it. read more

Passed by this place all the time walking to Disneyland, never had the chance to try it until now! Very upscale and nice decoration upstairs, with a surprising amount of room! The guacamole and queso fundido were on point, and the enchiladas hit the spot. And I had this mai tai type drink with a guava foam that was awesome! A little on the pricey side, which is to be expected( Disney gonna Disney) but still glad I got to try it out! read more

Ok in all fairness, we came here on a Friday night following the tail end of ski week (the week of President's day weekend). Boyfriend and I thought it would be nice to go out to downtown Disney for our anniversary and bring my daughter and my mom along. We were able to get reservations through Open Table about 2 hours from when we needed. Reservation was made for 7:15pm thus it was the height of dinner time. We arrived with plenty of time prior to our reservation and were seated close to the reservation time. It is a beautiful restaurant and wraps around the whole structure. We were seated at the very back of the restaurant and it overlooks lucky strike and the place that was Tortilla Joe's. It was nice dim lighting making it seem pretty darn fancy. Now for the food... I definitely eat more with my eyes so I made sure to peruse yelp and look at the photos to see what the popular dishes were. We got the guacamole for sure with chips, this is your standard guacamole, nothing too special but the presentation was nice, with the basket of endless chips and the beautiful ceramic dish. My daughter ordered the mac and cheese and fries and this was good enough for her. My boyfriend ordered the Cesar Salad with the chicken as an add on. The presentation was beautiful but it looked like there was more dressing than there was salad. But that dressing though... I'd order just a separate bowl of that to take home. My mom and I shared the snapper and the octopus. The octopus showed up a lot on the yelp photos so we thought that it would be nice to try and we decided on the snapper because fried fish sounded good especially on a Lenten Friday. We were not too impressed with either, the snapper was overcooked and the octopus didn't have any flavor to it. The pluses for both of those, the snapper had a tasty sauce to it and the octopus was cooked perfectly. Out of all that food, the only thing we would probably say is worth getting is the Cesar Salad because of the dressing. For the dessert, having seen the photos on yelp, I noticed that they had a pavlova and because my little one is big on Bluey, we thought that it would be nice that she actually got to try one. We ordered the pavlova and the no bake cheesecake. For these two desserts, they both seemed to have some sort of guava in it and it made both desserts taste amazing!!! The pavlova also had some horchata foam to it and I thought that was pretty creative, and it also added another level to the dessert. To me, the dessert was the saving grace. If yelp could do half stars, I would give this place 3.5 because the quality of the food... the overdone snapper just didn't sit well with me and the octopus dish just needed something more. Definitely was expecting more from this place since it is located in downtown Disney. read more

Loved the service especially on Thanksgiving night. We walked in an hour before closing, they sat us within 20 minutes. We had just come from a terrible experience at an all-you-can-eat buffet and were starving, so getting water, our appetizer, and the kids' meals ordered as soon as we sat down felt amazing. The star of the night was definitely the queso fundido. It's not your typical queso fundido, but the flavor is so good it makes you forget what the classic version even tastes like. The bread it came with was pretty hard, but we were so hungry we still ate it all. I ordered--can't remember the name--a type of chile relleno. It was different, but really tasty, especially with the rice underneath. My kids ordered chicken tenders and a burrito--pretty standard, good portions, no complaints there. Lastly, my mother-in-law and husband had the enchiladas de pollo. Everything was good, and we truly appreciated being served on Thanksgiving night. The ambiance was fantastic, and we even got to see Disney's fireworks. Overall, a great night. read more

Choosing Paseo to have dinner while on a family trip to Disneyland was a spur of the moment decision. It was a busy day at the park, we hadn't made reservations elsewhere, and they appeared to have Mac & Cheese on their menu; something easy for my picky daughter to accept. And, man, I am so beyond happy that we did decide to come and eat here. The restaurant itself is spacious, taking up the second floor of a Downtown Disney spot. There is ample room between tables, with open kitchen areas allowing patrons to watch the various dishes being crafted. A large patio overlooks the coffee shop and milling shoppers below, all with a calm and softly lit atmosphere. We started dinner with the Tlayuda, essentially a Oaxacan Tostada. The black bean puree provided a nice and salty base, the chorizo and pork belly were sweet and smoky. Strips of Cecina on top gave a delicious and slightly chewy texture. And it was all brought together with a thick layer of melted Oaxaca cheese on top, sprinkled with greens, onions, and dollops of that avocado mousse. This was the best dish we had eaten that evening and a wonderful way to begin our meal. My wife and I shared the Chile Relleno. It was an exceptionally large and perfectly smoked Poblano, the interior overflowing with mushrooms and a finely reduced tomato sauce, served on a bed of salted rice, and topped with a thick slab of lightly toasted cheese and squash. Individually, each component was well cooked, but very simple. Mixed together, the whole of the dish was exceedingly flavorful, a nice blending of textures, and was overall excellently crafted. Our son, unsure of anything on the menu, was convinced to try the Tuna Ceviche. At first, he limited himself to the hominy garnish, testing the marinade that coated the fish. But, after sampling his tuna, his face lit up and he quickly ate all of his dinner, very much enjoying every bite. And our daughter enjoyed her Tres Queso Mac & Cheese off of the ninos menu. While she didn't finish it, the dish still got her personal thumbs up. About the only detraction from our dinner were the Papas Fritas side we ordered for the table. While the fries on the side of my daughter's dinner were well crisped, the papas frites were drenched in butter to the point of becoming soggy and limp. The flavor was fine, especially with the sheer amount of fragrant garlic, but the texture had become quite unappealing. Regardless, we had an outstanding dinner here at Paseo. It was delicious, surprising, and a fantastic end to a busy day at Disneyland. While our visits to the Magic Kingdom are limited, I can easily say that coming back here for another evening is definitely worth doing again. ---------- And for the Disneyland Reviews List: Taste - Or the Overall Flavor: * * * * (and a half) While I would say that places like Carthay Circle and Blue Bayou top my lists, Paseo is still an outstanding entry into Disney's list of places to dine. The food is full of smokey flavors, rich sauces, and fantastic textures and combinations. Convenience - Of the Seating & Service Options: * * * * The seating is open with a good amount of space between tables. An outside patio gives nice views of Downtown Disney below. And the kitchen areas are open so people can view certain dishes being crafted before them. It's pleasant, comfortable, and relaxing after a long day at the parks. The only real issue I have is that the restaurant is on the second floor, making the front desk essentially just a gateway to a staircase. I'm not sure why, but I found this to be a bit wasteful and inconvenient. Value - Will you walk away satisfied?: * (and a half) Every place in Disneyland is relatively over priced; the trick is to find food that will make you not want a snack two hours later, despite what you pay. Typically, paying around $10 per person is what you should expect, but still have a filling meal. Let's face it, Paseo is not cheap. While it won't completely break the bank like other places at Disneyland, you can still expect to easily pay in excess of $30 per person or more. Still, if you're trying to be a bit more economical, you do get a fair amount of food with the entrees, making them sharable. And some patrons can opt to eat something off the appetizer menu to help curb the costs further. Regardless, the experience here is fantastic and very much worth the cost. Kid Factor - Is there entertainment for the young ones?: * If any of your kids are curious how a tortilla is made, they might find something to keep them entertained. Others might take delight in the scenery of Downtown. But, otherwise, a fine restaurant is not exactly a place for younger and easily bored kids. read more

Had a lovely dinner at Paseo on Halloween! Spent the day at Disney for a pre birthday celebration and wanted something a little nicer for din. Paseo is definitely nice! Backed by a Michelin-starred Chef :) The restaurant is very beautiful and is upstairs so the view is cute. My chair did have lots of chip crumbs on it so that was a little not cute. Not too many veggie options but still found some great dishes! Chile relleno was very unique (mushrooms inside, cheese on top) & great presentation, and guac was bomb. Chips were stale though. Prices: $9 for glass of iced tea, $30 for each chile relleno, $18 guac. read more

My wife and I went to Downtown Disney in search of a new place to celebrate our 11-year anniversary. We decided to check out "Paseo." From the menu, it seemed like an authentic Oaxaca, Mexico-inspired experience. Unfortunately, before we even entered the restaurant, the experience started off poorly. The hostess was too busy on her personal device to acknowledge us when we walked up to request a table for two. When we politely asked if a booth was available, she immediately rolled her eyes and said, "I'll ask, but you're not going to get it." I was shocked and immediately felt unwelcome. She told us to wait five minutes and then switched places with a young male host who was also focused on his personal device. I received a text notification that our table was ready and informed him, but he seemed confused and didn't know what I was talking about. I walked upstairs and saw the original hostess gossiping with another hostess while both were still on their phones. At that point, I couldn't help but think, "Wow, they're good at multitasking." We were finally seated in what appeared to be a nearly empty restaurant with several open booths, yet we were placed outside with very limited lighting. The restaurant itself, however, is beautiful and thoughtfully designed. Thankfully, our waiter, RUDY, completely changed the experience. He was lively, welcoming, and genuinely happy to have us in his section. He was attentive throughout the evening. At one point, I noticed my water glass was dirty, and he immediately replaced it and apologized without hesitation. Since it was our first visit, I went all in with the ordering. For starters, we shared the guacamole and chips, which were amazing. The freshly made guacamole was smooth and flavorful, and the chips were crisp, lightly salted, and perfectly prepared. We also ordered a chicken Caesar salad (no tomatoes, as they traditionally don't belong in a Caesar salad). The salad was fresh and rich in flavor. The chicken wasn't grilled but nicely roasted--crispy on the outside and tender inside. Next came the aguachile, and unfortunately, this was the biggest disappointment of the night. It lacked a proper sauce, the serrano peppers were pickled, and the entire dish tasted overwhelmingly of pickled juice. Aguachile and ceviche should highlight fresh acidity and spice--not pickled flavors. After one bite, I knew I couldn't continue and sent it back. My wife's chicken enchiladas arrived next. She said they were fine--not her favorite, but not terrible either. In fact, she mentioned she would probably order another Caesar salad instead next time. Then came the tlayuda--OMG! It was overwhelmingly delicious. The pork, chorizo, and asada danced together perfectly, while the beans and sauces complemented every bite. It was easily one of the highlights of the evening. Finally, the dish I was most excited about arrived: the Oaxaca chicken mole. The warm mole sauce over tender chicken and Spanish rice paired beautifully with the three different types of fresh, homemade maíz tortillas. That dish won me over. It brought back memories of my mom making mole when I was younger and standing beside her in the kitchen learning how to cook traditional Mexican dishes. I'm not a professional chef, but I'm the son of a Mexican mother who taught me how to prepare these traditional recipes--from aguachile to fresh chips. Because of that, I was especially disappointed with the aguachile. I do wish I had tried the enchiladas myself. Dessert was different. It was good, but not particularly exciting--it felt a bit like eating cereal with ice cream. I'm not much of a dessert person, so it didn't affect my overall rating. I left Rudy a generous tip because he absolutely deserved it. We need more enthusiastic and attentive people like him in the service industry. Even with the limited lighting in this beautiful restaurant, Rudy truly brightened the room. Thank you again, Rudy. read more

We arrived on time for our 6pm reservation, but we still had to wait 15 minutes for a table even though five other parties were seated between the time we checked in and when we were seated. The table they put us at was still dirty and had obviously soiled napkins folded on plates as though they were fresh. We ordered Brussels sprouts, which ended up being a bowl of burnt leaves. Not impressed and won't be back. The two stars are for the waiter who brought the food and staff member who cleaned up the table after we asked them to - they were friendly and hard-working. Wish the rest of the experience lived up to their efforts. read more

Five stars all around. We came to Paseo for brunch on February 1 and it was a great experience from start to finish. The food was excellent. I had the Paseo burger and it was amazing. Great flavor fluffy bun quality cheese and perfectly cooked meat. One of those burgers you keep thinking about after you leave. We also ordered the carne asada tacos and they were really good. Super flavorful rich and well put together. Chips and salsa were fresh and hit the spot. The kids meals were a win too. The kids waffles and kids eggs were both a hit and they cleaned their plates which says a lot. The restaurant itself was very clean including the bathrooms. Seating was comfortable and the overall vibe was relaxed and welcoming. Huge shoutout to our server Heidi. She was fantastic and really made the experience. Friendly fast attentive and genuinely kind. She checked in at all the right times and kept everything moving smoothly. We'll definitely be back and would recommend Paseo to anyone looking for a great brunch spot. read more

**AT DOWNTOWN DISNEY** LOCATION: This is UPSTAIRS, near Centrico. Centrico is the medium casual sister restaurant and Paseo is the "fancy" one. It's at downtown Disney, so you'll have to pay for parking or get validated. AMBIANCE (4/5): They have a small bar right as you walk upstairs, they have lots of indoor booth seating and some outdoor patio seating if you'd like to people watch. SERVICE (4/5): I've always had good service when I dine here. FOOD (4/5): $40 DOZEN OYSTERS: served with tangerine aguachile sauce & pickled shallots. One sauce is sweet and the other is vinegary. Small oysters, good starter. $42 MAMA'S COCHINITA PIBIL: pork shank served over mashed black beans. I think this is one of their best dishes on the menu! $64 CARNE ASADA: 12 ounces of meat served with fingerling potatoes. read more

My husband and I had an excellent dining experience here with the food being the best highlight of it all. I had a reservation for dinner and we were seated quickly. Our server was so kind and attentive. I believe his name is Rudy. We ordered drinks and food. The presentation of everything is a good balance of classy and fun. The DTS cocktail was beautiful and refreshing. I really love the enchilada de pollo. The sauce was somehow light but full of flavor. Probably one of the best enchiladas I've had. The black beans are amazing with a smooth consistency, you can tell how fresh they made it. My husband's carne asada was also very good. The corn tortillas were freshly made too. So good but it only came with 3 sadly. I could have eaten 10 of those! The only thing I didn't care for was the queso fundido as it reminded me too much of Tom Ka Thai soup. The ambiance is romantic and elegant. It is a little dark in there but our server provided us a small table light upon request. Would love to come back to eat here again! read more

Unexpected 10/10 restaurant in downtown disney! I usually like to stick to park food for the theming and money already spent to be in disney, but my family wanted a sit down place we could reserve a table for day of. Service was very attentive and the food and drinks were all amazing. This place definitely ranks within my top 5 for the year! Highly recommend the winter ponche, margaritas, and butternut squash soup. Once of those places where everything you order exceeds expectations. read more

The Salmon Pate really "reeled" me in! Beautiful restaurant with nice staff that's family friendly. They have a kids menu and high chairs. Food however took forever to come out and everything comes out at once. Salmon Pate- This was our favorite of the night. The flavor was incredible, though my only complaint is that it only comes with two small pieces of brioche. You might find yourself wanting more bread for that delicious pate! Mama's Cochinita Pibil: The pork was tender and served on a bed of cold refried black beans. Pretty solid, flavorful dish and comes with homemade tortillas Brussels Sprouts: The flavor was good, but the pieces of chorizo were overcooked and super hard Don't forget to validate your parking ticket! read more

Paseo is one of my favorite places to eat in Downtown Disney. It's never really crowded and the food is always great. The service is also one of the best. We always have the best service here. This place is very clean and very inviting. They have inside and outside seating. I love the view from the outside. You get a great view of Downtown Disney. read more

I had the Chicken Enchiladas at Paseo in Downtown Disney, and they were hands down one of the best things I've ever eaten. So good, in fact, that we went back the very next day because I needed more. The shredded chicken was tender, the salsa verde was perfectly tangy, and the toppings -- avocado, sour cream, lettuce, tomato, red onion, and queso fresco -- were fresh and flavorful. Paseo is a modern Mexican restaurant by Michelin-starred Chef Carlos Gaytán, blending cultural legacy with contemporary flair. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with beautiful decor that adds to the overall dining experience. Whether you're a local or visiting the parks, if you're craving authentic Mexican cuisine, Paseo is a must-visit. And if you're lucky enough to try the chicken enchiladas, prepare to be amazed. Highly recommend! read more

Celebrated a birthday with brunch here and since there was a couple of us, we ordered more food than we could eat. Service was super, pacing was great, and the food and drinks were tasty. Some things we loved more than others, and some things some of us liked more than others. Desserts, forgot pics, were not nearly as sweet as we were worried about. Will definitely back to try other meals! read more

Cool place. Nice bar, a lot of alcohol . Next to Disneyland. A lot fusion tacos selection, price reasonable

Décor Earthy, warm, and genuinely inviting. Every detail--from plates and cutlery to glassware and linens--was thoughtfully chosen and perfectly aligned with the concept. The room works. Full stop. The décor is beyond reproach. Service Our server, Ryan, started strong: engaging, knowledgeable, and polished. He offered a confident introduction to the restaurant and made sure to highlight that the chef-driven concept earned a Michelin star. Unfortunately, that initial promise evaporated quickly. As the meal progressed, Ryan became increasingly absent. By the time food arrived, it was delivered by a rotating cast of two or three other staff members. We did not see our actual server again until it was time to pay the bill--at which point his demeanor was perfunctory and disengaged. Drinks Frankly, disappointing. There was no hot chocolate, no blended margaritas, and the bar was out of its top two tequilas. For a Mexican-influenced restaurant, this is indefensible. Falling behind on tequila inventory is not a supply-chain mystery--it's a management failure, squarely on the GM and bar staff. One additional issue was our drinking water. We were asked if we wanted lemon wedges with our water. We specifically said no. However, each glass, except one came with a lemon wedge. The Xaman Old Fashioned arrived half-filled with ice, the liquid barely reaching a quarter of the glass. One member of our party enjoyed the flavor enough to order a second--which never arrived, yet still appeared on the bill. While Chef Carlos Gaytán's overall concept may be Michelin-worthy, the execution under Executive Chef Rudy Lopez falls well short of that standard. Likewise, General Manager Mike Jones needs a firmer grip on bar inventory and floor oversight. A manager briefly stopped by our table to ask, "How was everything?"--already turning away before the question had finished leaving her mouth. Food The idea--traditional Mexican cuisine with French technique--is compelling. The execution, however, was inconsistent at best and disappointing at worst. Starters ordered included the Butternut Squash Soup, Mayan Ceviche, Smoked Salmon Pâté, and Shrimp Aguachile. Entrées were Chicken Enchiladas, Crispy Cauliflower Steak, Carne Asada New York Strip, Short Ribs, and Lamb Barbacoa. The standouts were limited but clear. The Butternut Squash Soup was sweet, clean, and refreshing. The Mayan Ceviche was bright, acidic, and well-balanced. The Carne Asada was cooked to tender perfection and delivered the most satisfying bite of the night. Everything else ranged from forgettable to subpar. The Chicken Enchiladas arrived cold and lacked depth or complexity. The Short Ribs were also under-warmed, dulling what should have been a rich, comforting dish. Several items felt indistinguishable from what one might expect at an average American fast-casual restaurant--and in some cases, even below that bar. Two sides were ordered: Brussels Sprouts and Corn Tortillas. The Brussels Sprouts showed promise, with hints of sweetness and acidity that nearly coaxed out their natural richness. Nearly--but not quite. The dish lacked the depth needed to carry it home. As for the Corn Tortillas, I can't comment on them at all--they never arrived. With no check-ins from Ryan or his assistant, there was no opportunity to ask. Final Impression By the end of the meal, we collectively decided not to risk dessert. There's a point at which one stops hoping a course will redeem the experience and simply cuts losses. Paseo has an excellent aesthetic and an ambitious concept, but until service, execution, and management align with that vision, it remains a restaurant trading on potential rather than delivering on it. Two stars solely for the decor. read more
