El Parian Taqueria

I went back to the restaurant and ordered a chimichanga, it was huge! Could only eat half

Fast and friendly services. It's not in the greatest of neighborhoods but you have to get out to get good food. Once you walk in you're greeted by music from Los Tigris De Norte, Ramon Ayala and Juan Gabriel. There's a board in front of the register that has the specials. I opts for the asada quesadilla with a small soda. All for $10.75 with tax. The quesadilla does tend to get soggy, do to how the meat is cooked. The asada is cooked in its own juices which will lead to a soggy tortilla. If you could get passed that, then you're in for a good meal. The meat was flavorful. They have a salsa and chip bar. Everything was delicious and spicy. Place stays busy. Will most definitely be back ti try a different dish.

Was craving Tacos and wanted to checkout another Taqueria. I am heading up to Delta Borne Brewery and this place was just down the road from them. I order 4 Regular Tacos with meat choices of Cabeza, Lengua, Pastor, and Asada. The tacos came out super quick and they tasted amazing. Probably some of the best Tacos I have had in Sacramento in a few years!

The tacos did come out before I was done getting salsa for my chips!

They had Playoff Football and European Soccer Highlights on the 2 TVs.

There is no outdoor seating, but there is plenty of indoor seating.

They have a fridge with bottled beers.

First time to do a dine in. The service was good. It was dark inside but clean. The food was great and I'm not sure if it was because it was a Tuesday but the Tacos were cheap. I liked their Carnitas more than their Pastor. Our food arrived immediately. I was surprised at how fast it got served. There was a self serve chips and salsa and dip open bar.

I've been coming here for years. My absolute favorite spot to come for Mexican food. Helpful people and the food is always fresh

Best Mexican food in town. Salsa bar is fantastic, every salsa is top notch. Haven't had anything from here that wasn't good. Honestly, hesitant to even share how good this place is cause they're that good. Wanna keep it a secret but the people are too nice and the food is too good.

PORTIONS: filling and overwhelming
PRICE: appropriate
SERVICE: the place is order first and self-serve for chips and salsa
SURROUNDINGS: clean and open, definitely hole in the wall
FLAVORS:
++ Pastor and cabeza were all beautiful, flavorful and paired with individual salsas to bring out their unique tastes.
+/- wet burrito with lengua was ok; components were "pretty good" but the lengua itself "needed something"
BONUS ROUND: they have a chip bar with their salsas and it's DELICIOUS and unhealthy for restrictive clothing

So I came here with a friend for lunch not too long ago. We sat inside as the dining room had plenty of tables to sit at. I ordered a super burrito with steak and I will say it was delicious. Before we were seated, they asked if we wanted to go to the chips and salsa bar and I did. I got some chips and salsa and it was very delicious as well. They have all types of salsa to go with the chips!

The staff here is super friendly and nice. I will definitely be back to try more menu items to see what else they can stuff my belly with. My advice is try to get here before 12 as the dining room can get crowded with people standing in line, trying to order some of the good food they serve!

drove by this place and wanted to eat some tacos. the area isn't too pretty but I never really cared.

Ordered 6 tacos and a large horchata for ~14$ (very good price). Had 2 lengua, 2 carnitas & 2 others (can't recall). The people there were super nice and the order came out quickly.

The tacos were street style (relatively small) but tasted great, the meat were well cooked and flavorful, the fat was drizzling and overall are great.

Would come back again.

Customer service not really good. Laid back type of vibe with the mexican music going in the background. Salsa bar was decent. Of course tried out the piná loca that i really enjoyed. Probably the best one I've tried so far. Fish taco & regular chicken taco were pretty good too. It looks like they have daily specials probably since it's a separate board you'll see once you enter aside from the regular menu. I honestly didn't notice until after i ordered or i probably would've chose something from there. Overall, a solid mexican spot for sure that i would return to only for takeout since it really isn't in the best area.
