First time here, stopped to pick up a little something for a late dinner.Boy, was I pleasantly surprised!Food was excellent and very generous portions.Tried the Enchiladas Guadalajara - just Wow!What's not to love about cheese Enchiladas covered with pork fajitas?!!! YUM!The pork was flavorful and so tender, the fajita veggies were plentiful, and even the rice was delicious, as was the fresh guacamole salad.I have found a new favorite!Thank you El Parian and thanks also to the sweet young lady who patiently waited on us and neatly packed up our food!
A take out order late at night. Expected passable food, but got amazing food that was well seasoned and pork that was so tender.

We used to go here all the time. Food tastes pretty good. But we will never eat here again after my wife found a hair at the bottom of her chimichangas doing take out. And it wasn’t the first time human hairs have been an issue. One time we asked for a To Go box after eating IN at the restaurant and the to go boxes had hairs all over the containers. It was just GROSS! But the last straw for us was the hair INSIDE the To Go container with food set on top of it. I don’t know where they keep their To Go containers but they are exposed and get dust and hairs all over and then they use them for customers. The other issue about this place is most of them don’t speak any English very well. So there is a huge communication barrier. It’s unfortunate but we will never eat here again.

Be careful there is no undercooked raw chicken in your food. I ordered my usual and half of my chicken wasn't cooked all the way. Unfortunately had to throw out all my food bc no one wants food poisoning, fingers crossed I noticed before accidentally eating some bad chicken.

Very nice restaurant, right behind Target, almost passed it. Was greeted by the staff and sat in the booths. Nice and comfortable seating with privacy, also there are tables for larger families to dine in. I was greeted with chips and salsa along with a nice queso sauce that had a nice spicy hint. I ordered the carnitas platter, which came with rice and beans and salad with guacamole. It was so tasty, came with 4 tortillas to make your own tacos. Very flavorful and crispy carnitas. I noticed there were some optional sauces on the side but wish the dish came with a traditional house made salsa verde instead. To drink I had a Jarrito Tamarind flavor, very classic and paired so well. I was very full by the end and that was a total of 20$ for both. Service was great, the bathroom was very clean, the team was alert at all times. Will definitely come back again to try their mole enchiladas.

I ordered via DoorDash. Food was still warm when I got it. Taste pretty good. Rice and beans were great, what you’d expect from a Mexican restaurant. The nacho sauce was really good and the burrito was what you’d except to keep you coming back.

It solves the problem. Better than others around Eagan. Their booths are terrible! Food is always ok and the service is really good. It's really fast so prepare to leave in half hour! small place.

Don't order take out from this place. They charge a take out fee and the manager couldn't explain why the fee was being accessed. Another restaurant trying to scam the customers. Too many Mexican places around in the area. So long mismanaged el Parian!
Ate here multiple times and has been delicious.Friday 12/29/23 came here with a group of 4, and 2 of us got horrific food poisoning. We think it was from the salad since the 2 that didn't get sick did not eat salad with their meal.

We ordered the basic tacos and they didn't come with tomatoes. The meat is really greasy.

Excellent Mexican restaurant with a friendly staff. Good with kids. Quick. Eat there with my family (including a 3 year old and 1 year old) often. Never disappoints.

But if a hole in the wall I’ve ordered from via delivery several times. Food is great, they give you that awesome white sauce for chips, and I’m addicted to horchata now.
Delicious foods and cozy atmosphere. Definitely a must
