Very tasty and affordable Mexican food. Four of us stopped in for lunch on a Saturday. The interior…read moreis very colorful and thematic, and the seating is a unique 2-level setup. I guess this location has been a number of restaurants throughout the years, but it has been nicely transformed into a Mexican motif. Chips and salsa came quickly and we declined additional options of guac or queso. Our server came quickly and got our drink orders, and then we placed our food orders. The food came out in a reasonable time, with the typical 'hot plate' All the food was what you'd expect, and had good, fresh flavors. My wife's dish came out with beef instead of the chicken she'd ordered, and wasn't as hot as the rest of the dish, but otherwise was good. Communication with our server was a bit hit or miss, but she was attentive and checked in regularly. All in all I'd recommend it--we liked it much more than the other similar competitor in town.

They had enough space and tables to fit us all with no issues. I got my usual, tacos de carne asada (steak tacos). They brought my limes and cheese as requested. Food was great. They also give you chips and salsa when you sit, as most Mexican restaurants do. They have really good queso dip! When it came time to sing "Happy Birthday" they came out with the sombrero, instruments, and a free shot of tequila.

El Paisano is no joke, you guys. I had the distinct pleasure of dining here after a very long day…read morein the car with not enough breakfast. Let's just say I was hangry when I arrived and I was super excited to see they were offering a limited menu due to RAGBRAI and that they were churning out orders FAST. I went with three tacos - one of each offering - and they were all delicious. My favorite was definitely the steak and bacon taco, but I would 100 percent eat this exact meal again and again if I lived in Denison. If you happen to be passing through (or, perhaps you're local and looking to try out a new spot) El Paisano is a gem and totally worth it. Cheers to supporting local businesses!
