The front desk staff hates their job, they don't smile and act like they are so stressed out they are ready to walk out anytime. They tell you a 20minute wait and it turns into 40 minute wait! We go once a week, and go thru the same thing each time! The food is amazing, but hire people who smile,... More

We always plan our trips to Fargo around lunch or dinner at Paradiso! Love the food, they haven't got the tables jammed together so when it is busy you can move around and the service is great! If you love mexican you have to try this place.

Went on a Friday night at 8:30, and it was absolutely packed - had to shout to be heard across the table! Aside from that, good meal and service and pretty great value. Cheesy but fun ambience.

Enjoyed dinner here two nights in a row, here for the weekend. Ordered the ultimate margarita on the rocks--wonderful! First night, had the chicken margarita flatbread appetizer as my meal and it was delicious. Second night had some enchiladas with carnitas--also very well seasoned and tasty. Excellent servers both nights. Really enjoyed the self-serve chips and salsa bar--appreciated that they... More

Our family have been coming here for years. Every time we fly into Fargo, we come here. Came in at about 10.15 on a Monday night and even though it was so late, we still had great food and fabulous service. I have eaten at many mexican places since coming here and none of them stack up against paradiso's! I... More

The food was amazing, the drinks were cold and went down easy, and the wait staff were friendly and always made sure we were taken care of. Its a fun atmosphere that puts you in a good mood. I will come here again and again. Defiantly my favorite restaurant in Fargo - by far.
