Casa De Paradiso Mexican - Chico

This is the second time we're here for lunch. Both times the food was great and tasted like authentic Mexican food. The chips and salsa were really good. My husband had an enchilada, beef taco, rice and beans. I had the paradiso enchilada, pork tamale, with rice and beans. We finished our lunch with fried ice cream. When we arrived there we sat immediately and received our drinks, chips and salsa. Our waitress was very nice, the food was hot and served fast. The restaurant looked clean and so were the bathrooms. As I said, this was only our second time. We live too far from Casa De Paradiso.

Our server Stephanie was very helpful with helping us select our meals! We got a few burritos. The fajita steak burrito was beyond amazing! Steak was tender and seasoned beautifully! Chips and salsa were great, nice little kick to the salsa! Also tried the cheese dip with green chilies, 10/10! Cheese was SO stingy and tasty.

Great drinks, food is okay. Service is always very good. And did I say that the drinks are great? I would recommend that they CLEAN up their interior. Straighten things out, make it look like they care a little bit more. A deep CLEANING would go a long ways. When you have something special, you should take care of it. Things are beginning to look dated and a bit dingy. The light fixtures are messy looking. I am betting the restaurant would clean up well.

Not my favorite mexican place by far. The staff is friendly, but to me, the food is not very good. The salsa and chips they serve while you wait is very good. The menu, to me, doesn't have a lot of choices compared to other restaurants. They don't have many burrito or taco choices at all. Maybe 4-5 burrito options, and I'm pretty sure there are no taco options. I do like the taquitos, though. The enchiladas and many other things I feel are just too greasy for my taste. My parents, however, love eating here. Overall, a nice place to go to over all.

I thought I would never enjoy another chicken Avacado Burritto with the cheesy white wine sauce as the campfire destroyed the paradise place. Well, I'm glad to report that the new location here in Chico is pleased again! Delish! Tears of joy!
