Paraiso - Bridgeport

They make food similar to Mexican spots I been to in Mexico. They are legit.

When it comes to tacos I don’t play games. These are the best in CT. Step 1 squeeze limes. Step 2 dress heavily with the red and green sauce. Step 3 enjoy the greatness. I get the grilled chicken tacos. Order has 3 I ask for 4.

The owner and server are from Italy and both accommodating and pleasant. The food was tasty, -old style Italian dishes. We were offered homemade Limoncello or Amaretto at the end of the meal, on the house. There was no rushing here, just a relaxed atmosphere with fine food. I will look forward to another visit there.

Great authentic Mexican food at great prices. Everything is made with fresh ingredients and tastes great. The staff can sometimes have language difficulties but the menu is simple enough to solve these problems, plenty of pictures and easy to google words. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an authentic Mexican meal without too much American fusion at a great price.

I ordered a shrimp quesadilla, which isn’t on the menu, but most places are usually accommodating. The meal came with rice and beans. I considered getting a side of guacamole, but at $7, it was a bit pricey for me, so I decided to just enjoy what was included with the meal. The interior is clean and quiet, and you aren't packed in close to other tables. I opted for takeout, but they do offer dining in. My total came to $17.50. Once I got home and opened it up, I was pleased to see a generous portion—heavy! I really appreciate that when I spend a lot! The quesadilla was fantastic—on point! It had fresh, plentiful shrimp and gooey cheese. The rice and beans were delicious and fresh, with the beans cooked to the perfect texture. There was also a fresh salad on the side with a slice of avocado. I was a bit disappointed that there was no guacamole or even sour cream. Fortunately, I had a dollop of sour cream at home to add, but I’ll definitely have to try the guacamole another time. Either way, I’m writing this feeling completely FULL. I’ll be back!
