Travelling through we decided Mexican sounded good and we found El Paraiso, which we found to have a nice clean building and, uh oh, only one other customer. The service was prompt but the food. Oh. Not so good. I had seafood enchiladas. Gross but I gagged them down. Pico was dried up and flavorless. Salsa almost adequate. Refried beans more like brownish water

OMGbest Mexican food and margaritas. Moved from California to Missouri. Have not had food like this since leaving California. To tell the truth, better than California.

Not bad, kind of bland but not bad. The food came out fast, I’ll give them that. One thing though: WE SAW A GHOST. That’s right, an honest to god haunting situation. We saw a man sitting at the booth alone, and we commented on how he resembled the Tapatio Man, only several years after his famous bottle photoshoot. Anyway we went outside after paying and looked back to see a COMPLETELY EMPTY BOOTH! No salsa, so chips, no old Tapitio dude, no nothing. Anyway it’s the only Mexican spot in canyonville, so you kind of have to go.

I may be a little biased and basic when it comes to this place beeeecause... 1. After many many years in the same small town, you become friends with the different business owners, 2. I typically always get the same 1 or 2 things (so does my fam) cuz I know it's good & I love it. But this place is literally ALWAYS BUSY, sooo that alone says they are good. Customer Service is on point... Always friendly, and the meals usually arrive in 15-20 mins. Give or take 5 mins if busy busy. The endless, delicious chips & salsa will help keep you company while you wait tho!!

I was in the mood for Mexican food today...and I didn't feel like going to my mom and I's old haunt. To be truthful, it wasn't anything to do with the food or the owners. I lost my mother in April and I just didn't need the memories.The place I went to today was just as good. The service was just as nice and they had an excellent enchilada and chili relleno. The rice and beans, and the chips and salsa were excellent as well. I will be headed back and that's usually not my MO on Mexican places. My mother made excellent Mexican food, one of her friends was an excellent Mexican cook, having learned in her family restaurant. This was good.

For a small town Mexican restaurant, the food is very good.. recommend carne asada... ask for a roasted jalapeno to go with it and a Cadillac margarita and you're good... fajita taco salad is good too. Typical Mexican fair, but definitely better than most I've been to in S Oregon.

Not as good anymore. Watery beans, everything tastes the same. Degraded food quality. Not traditional Mexican. Seems processed. Slow servers.

Meh. Was so looking fowars to this as we had been there years ago. This is nothing compared to its former self. Great service,very quick but the food was pretty miserable. Jack cheese stuffed no flavor no nothing but semi warm limp flour tortillas with salsa that was nothing more than must chopped tomatoes. No flavor to anything except the beans. The beans were awesome and that's why I give it 2 stars. Beans were flavorful the rest was dog food.not coming back

Nice place. Clean, good service and good food. We ate there for Dads day and enjoyed it very much. Not much of a crowd but we were there for a late lunch or early dinner. Great Margaritas for the Ladies and good beer for the Guys. Give El Paraiso a try. Can't go wrong.

They were so disrespectful, accusing me of being someone else’s order and not having my food ready to pick up after calling it in 40 minutes ago...

This was an OK restaurant. American-Mexican food has become kind of cliche', but these folks do a decent job. Decent variety and authentic flavors.

Questions & Answers

I'll call and ask. I know the owner

I agree on the smaller portions. We used to go there and it was so much food. Went there last year for the first time in a long time and it was hardly anything. I was starving when we left.

I believe they close two weeks before Christmas day. That would be the 11th. From what I gathered talking with them, they leave at about that time to see family out of the country and will not be back until the new year. Hope that helps. Call before going is the best thing to do this close to the holidays.

Yes, they do!
