Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

The food was not bad at all and the service was good but it was nothing more than the average Mexican restaurant. Same menu as all of the others in the area.

The food here tastes just like every other Mexican restaurant around. However Paris is small town and not too many choices as far as similar places to eat. Pretty good food for a reasonable price

I'm not sure what to say except we were very disappointed. The enchiladas were extremely 'bland'.. We didn't taste any seasoning at all. The hot sauce was 'fair' and could also use more 'spice'. I also had a tostada and the only thing that was...on it was meat & cheese (no lettuce, tomato, etc..) Just buy some hamburger meat, taco seasoning and shells and make your own, because it will taste better than this did :(More

Went into restaurant and started to order and found out they did not have a liquor license and since we went in for a Margarita and they didn't serve them, we left.

I've eaten at this restaurant many times and never been disappointed. The price is a little spendy, but not when you consider how much food you get. Your entree is served on a large, oval, platter and it's entirely covered. The tacos and burritos are...stuffed full of meat (unlike many places). They serve chips and salsa as an appetizer while waiting on your main entree and if you aren't careful, it's ever so easy to fill up on that seeing as it's so good. It's even easier if you get their white cheese dip to go with it. That stuff is to DIE FOR. The service is amazing, everyone here is constantly diligent when it comes to customer service. You never have to wait more than a few minutes to get your drink refilled, or anything you might need. I'm sure there may be exceptions but I eat here on average of once every couple of months, and have since they opened, and it's still one of my favorite places in Paris to go to eat.More

The service is always great. The people are friendly and prices are reasonable. But the food is always cold. It would be a great Mexican resturant if they took the time to make sure you received hit food. I've experienced cold food the last three...times we've gone there and probably won't be back anytime soon.More

If you are looking for a quick meal, El Parian is the place to go. The service is fast, the food is great, and the prices are reasonable. Best cheese dip and salsa around; I could make a meal of just these.

For the most part the food was good. I would say it was a step down from some Mexican food we have eaten. The chips were good and fresh and salsa was good. Service was very nice and checked to see if we needed more...chips and salsa. For a small town there were quite a few people coming in to eat.More

Everything was closed so Mexican it was. The was tasty and service was good. With one exception; I don't like it when you order something, and they ask "Red or White sauce?" Then charge you extra for cheese sauce w/o telling you there is an...up charge.More

Nice restaurant. Waitstaff friendly. Service very quick. Chips and salsa were good. Tacos were good also. There are not a lot of food choices in Paris. This restaurant is located just on the outskirts of town. Was worth the trip.
