My dream is to have a Chilangos location at West Grove in McKinney, near the new Sephora and Whole Foods locations. They'd see my face way too often as well.

You'll see me again soon :) Favorites to order: barbacoa tacos on flour, with onions and cilantro and elotes!

This is the location at Parker Rd in Plano Tx. I usually only take the time to write a restaurant…read morereview when a place completely exceeds my expectations. El Paisa has done exactly that. I've now had several different meals here, and every single visit has reinforced why I'll keep coming back. The caldo de res is one of the best bowls I've ever had. The broth is rich, comforting, and tastes like it has been simmering all day. The vegetables are cooked perfectly, and the beef is incredibly tender. What really impressed me is how generous they are with the meat. You're not digging through the bowl hoping to find another piece--they give you plenty. You absolutely get your money's worth. The pozole completely won me over. The broth is deep, rich, and full of flavor, and once you add the lime, oregano, cabbage, radishes, and avocado, it becomes something truly special. Just like the caldo de res, they are very generous with the pork. There is meat in every bite, and the portions are outstanding. This has quickly become one of my favorite comfort foods. The sour cream chicken enchiladas deserve a special mention. I love my enchiladas absolutely swimming in sour cream sauce. The first time they came out, they weren't quite as saucy as I personally like. I politely took them back, explained exactly what I was looking for, and without hesitation they remade them on the spot exactly the way I wanted. They didn't make me feel like I was being difficult. They simply wanted me to enjoy my meal, and they absolutely nailed it. That's customer service. Then I tried the flautas, and I can honestly say they are the best flautas I've ever had. Perfectly crispy, generously filled with flavorful meat, topped with melted white cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and served with sour cream, guacamole, rice, and refried beans. Every single component of that plate was excellent. The only thing I'll do differently next time is ask for the lettuce and tomatoes on the side so the flautas stay extra crispy. That's simply my personal preference--the food itself was phenomenal. I also want to recognize the people who work here. As a Black woman, I pay attention to how I'm treated when I walk into a business. From my very first visit, I have felt genuinely welcomed here. Every interaction has been warm, respectful, and courteous. I've watched them interact with other customers as well, and everyone seems to be treated with the same kindness and hospitality. It feels like you're being welcomed into someone's home instead of simply walking into a restaurant. If you're wondering whether you'll feel comfortable dining here, my experience has been an emphatic yes. Now, if I could leave a small wish list in the suggestion box, it would simply be because I enjoy this place so much. * Please consider adding sopa de fideo. Based on everything I've tasted here, I honestly think you would absolutely nail it. * I'd love to see a traditional picadillo (seasoned ground beef) option for crispy tacos. I think it would be a huge hit. * I wish takeout customers had the option to enjoy the fresh salsa bar. Even if there were a small additional charge, I'd gladly pay it because it's that good. * And this one is purely personal preference: I'd love to have the option of shredded cheese on the nachos instead of queso sauce. I know plenty of people love queso, but I'm a shredded-cheese person. None of those wishes change how I feel about this restaurant. Great food will bring me in once. Great people keep me coming back. El Paisa has both. P.S. The pozole has officially become one of my favorite foods because of this restaurant. I honestly never expected to say that. Thank you for introducing me to a dish that has become one of my favorites. Thank you for consistently serving outstanding food and treating your customers like family. I'll definitely be back.

You wait at a table and someone brings your plate out to you. While you're waiting, you can head over to the self serve bar and help yourself to the salsas and other spicy veggies to enhance your meal. The dining area is fairly large and it was quickly filling up with construction workers, mostly from south of the border. I ordered the Combination Plate, with a beef taco, 2 beef flaunts and a cheese quesadilla. Disappointed to hear that birria wasn't an option for the protein. I saw the advertisement for Quesabirria, but it didn't look like a good value proposition. Anyway, my combination plate came with rice and refried beans. We talked story until the food arrived. The taco was okay, not much flavor but enhancements from the salsa bar helped. The flautas were pretty good but the cheese quesadilla was disappointing. The cheese wasn't anywhere near melty or flavorful. Sorry, but I can't strongly recommend El Paisa Taqueria.

Not only is this a super cute location with a really nice outdoor patio filled with colorful plants and lots of shade, but they also have excellent service. The man who took our order was really friendly and was patient to answer all of our questions. I ended up going with a lengua taco and a bacon egg and cheese taco both on corn and they were amazing, and their corn tortillas are excellent! My husband went with the shredded chicken and a potato egg and cheese, and he was absolutely loving them. Potato egg and cheese is never something that's really over the top, but they really know how to do it right here at Mariana's, the potatoes were cut small. They were very soft. They had salt and everything had lots of flavor. The real star of the show was their salsa! Both the red and green were mind blowing! If they sold them by the jar, I would have brought home two of each, they were so good! Their salsa is so flavorful it just enhances the already amazing tacos. Definitely a taco shop I will go back to every time I'm in Dallas visiting.
