My boyfriend had the beef chimichangas which looked like they were the size of eggrolls.

I guess everyone else in town was having fast food, because we were the only customers in the restaurant. We've eaten here a few times over the past few years, and were kind of amazed that their prices have TRIPLED since the last time we ate there. Food was pretty good, waiter was nice and friendly, but got blown away when we got the check and saw that they charged $4.99 for that very small hot sauce we had! Might have to go to Taco Bell for Mex next time, or zoom over to Zanesville, and get some food for a reasonable price that won't give you heartburn.

I sit at the bar and I'm greeted by something I've never had ever...chips served with 2 red salsas, a verde salsa and bean dip! Usually you just get chips, a small bowl and a carafe of salsa, help yourself. This set the tone that this would be different than usual. I ordered steak fajita nachos and a Modelo Negra. I powered thru the chips and bean dip like it was my job. And it didn't disappoint. Really fresh and flavorful. Nachos are nachos, right? Wrong. How they are assembled has everything to do with their mouth feel as they cool down. I've had nachos that come out looking amazing but as they cool, turn into a disappointing chuck of chips held together by shredded cheese cement. These stayed loose with crunchy bites of peppers and onions, and the cheese sauce coated instead of becoming cement-like. I always order the same thing when trying a New Mexican spot. If the nachos are good, chances are everything is good! So I'll keep the almost 5 Star steak going. I agree, some of the best Mexican food in Columbus.

We were out for Black Friday and that hankering for queso snuck up. The queso was very good and additive. I ordered the chimi with birria and my aunt had the tamale and chile rellano. My aunt commented that the margarita she ordered which came in a beautiful tall porcelain-looking cup and chile rellano was some of the best, most flavorful she has tried. For me, the same can be said with the birria chimi. The meat was seasoned and succulent and had a rich depth of flavor that made it easy to keep going back for more. I made a comment she needed to bring her husband and I wanted to return some time in the future. The only negative I have to say is service was pretty slow and the place was not too busy otherwise the atmosphere and the decor really set the vibe and tone and El Parian set a high bar

Everything here is fresh and excellently prepared. For the same lunch price one would pay at "the Bell" you can get real Mexican cuisine dine amidst beautiful ambiance and friendly service at El Parian. I have never been disappointed here.

The guacamole was a little thin but has good taste. The cheese dip had been cut with too much milk. Fajita quesadilla was really good. I brought home my leftovers and added some spice and it went to excellent. The rice is probably the best you will have at any Mexican restaurant. It is so fluffy and moist. Our server was attentive and very pleasant. Just a heads up they do not start serving lunch until 12pm. We sat outside by the canal and loved it. We will definitely give it another try. Maybe the seasoning thing was just an off day or because they had just switched from breakfast to lunch.

Tlaquepaque in Heath was such a gem! I had the Pollo Fundido (grilled chicken topped with cheese…read moresauce and pico -- I skipped the chorizo) and it was absolutely delicious. Super flavorful, perfectly cooked, and comforting in all the right ways. My only tiny wish? A bit more rice and beans to balance out the generous amount of chicken and sauce. But no real complaints -- I'd 100% order it again. My friend got a steak dish and enjoyed it too -- said the only thing they'd tweak was grilling the onions a little more. Still solid overall! Also, don't skip the Jamaica agua fresca -- it was light, refreshing, and so good with the meal. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, and the whole place gave me that familiar, homey feel I usually only get from spots back in California. Highly recommend if you're in the area -- great food, great service, and definitely worth a stop!

Sometimes a little slow and can find yourself waiting for water at times. Ambiance/Atmosphere: the inside is very nice and although narrow doesn't feel crowded or stuffy. Lighting is dimly lit enough for a nice date night, but not at all to dark. Food: The pocho burrito was amazing the first time I had it, followed by the second and third time even. Just a delicious burrito with an amazing habanero cream sauce and packed full of all three meats. I'd genuinely argue from my memory that it was the best burrito I'd ever had. That being said, I'd highly recommend skipping to go. The last 2 times I had it which has been over a year because I simple could not return it was just that disgusting. I was disheartened to have wasted my weekly cheat meals on it not once, but twice in arrow of dining here. The shrimp was hard, bland as if nothing was in my mouth, but still disgustingly fishy. The habanero sauce was tasteless and the avacado most definitely was not fresh. The chicken, steak, and peppers along with the tortilla still tasted good, but it was almost impossible to enjoy it pushing past the disgusting shrimp. The enchiladas were ok, but definitely a waste of money and calories. Not at all special. It seems that now this place is doing a bit better and has back to back 4 and even 5 star reviews. I'm giving Pocho's a 3 regardless of how awful my last two experiences were due to the fact the Pocho burrito was truly that delicious the first few times I had it. I raved about it and went back 3 weeks in arrow and even told my friends about it who loved it all the same. I used to even get two dining in and all three times getting it to go. Maybe it was my fault for trusting to go orders to much, but the first time it was just as amazing as dining in. I may give it another try as I truly do miss that delicious burrito, but I've discovered much better Mexican and don't want to risk wasting my time. Only time will tell if I give this place another shot.

I also got a side of rice and enjoyed that as well. Others in the group enjoyed their meals and drinks as well. Would return if ever back in the area for some yummy food!
