Too notch cafe it won't disappoint. You can definitely feel the vibe and tradition, great family business

I came here for a brunch lunch. It was a nice little diner. Plenty of parking in the back. It's nice that they serve breakfast until 2:00. When I went it was not crowded at all. The waiters and servers were very nice. I had the American breakfast everything was pretty good. Kind of wish the country gravy was a little bit more flavorful it wasn't bad. I will definitely be returning to try something else out. Good first experience though. read more

La Parada Cafe - American breakfast with bacon and hash brown - Mexican Near Me - Reno, Nevada

You would never know from the outside what this place is like. It is warm and welcoming and appears very clean. There are 11 or so tables with about 7 seats at the bar. The tables range in size from 4 to 10 seats. We came for a late breakfast and they have quite a few great options. We each ordered different breakfast burritos. The burritos arrived in a timely fashion and were very tasty. The beans and potatoes were not that warm but still good. They are open 7 days a week, have daily specials, a full bar and happy hour. What a nice surprse. We will be back. read more

La Parada Cafe - This is our favorite Mexican restaurant. Everything is made from scratch with love. Service is amazing too!! - Mexican Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I'm a huge food snob when it comes to authentic Mexican food. We've had a heck of a time finding a good spot since we relocated from Los Angeles. In LA you can throw a rock and hit an excellent mom n pop place. Stopping in at La Parada was a fluke - we were in the area and needed to eat fast. Being in a hurry I asked for recommendations. To my great surprise I absolutely fell in love with the chilaquiles! So much in fact, I order them everywhere I go. Sadly, none are as good as here. The refried beans were cooked to perfection. Just like "mama" use to make. Chips were fresh & even the bread tasted freshly baked. Our first visit, our servers mom came out to ask if I enjoyed her food. Really sweet bunch of folks. Not only has this place become our go to for Mexican food, we've turned our family and friends on to it as well. read more

7 pepper steak is fantastic. The Al pastor is also amazingl! Family run, great ambiance.

I been coming here since I could remember bout 16 with my grandparents. It's been a while, it's not what it use to be. I have great memories here. Service is excellent. Be patient. It could be a min. Gave it 3 because my chilakillis (chillaquiles) we're watered down. Not what I expected. Although they have a full bar. The mole platter was ok, needed some more love (flavor). If I come back it's only for the coffee read more

First review of 2019, and La Parada deserves it! Visited Reno for 2 nights. This place was amazing. Right when you walk in, it feels homey, cozy, and welcoming. The staff are very friendly and you can tell it's family owned in the best way. After pre-scoping the yelp photos, I was 99% sure I wanted the huevos rancheros before I even saw the rest of the menu. After quickly skimming, I knew it was still the right choice, and boy was I right! Huevos rancheros: side of amazingly flavorful refried beans sprinkled with cheese; perfectly moist and not dry. Side of small cut potatoes that were perfectly cooked. The piece de resistance, the main "meat" of the dish was the ground beef enchiladas, topped with eggs your way (I chose over easy), pico, and some amazing homemade sauce that makes me drool just thinking about it. I want to go back now just to get it again. My bf had the a la carte tacos with a side of beans after tasting how good mine were. Didn't taste his dish as I was too preoccupied with mine, but his tacos looked authentic and delicious. Also noted that they have amazing breakfast and lunch special prices Monday through Friday; can't remember the specific times or prices, but less than $10 per plate. The staff was also all super friendly and polite. They made us feel super welcomed and at home. Definitely check this gem out. I will be coming back the next time I'm in Reno! read more

This place is REALLY GOOD, the kind of good that you'll remember for a long time, and talk about later. I was visiting Reno and was craving really authentic Mexican food before I went back home. We looked up all the best places that we're close on Yelp and Google and decided to go Carlillo's Cantina based on the overwhelming reviews at such a high mark. We woke up in the morning on Sunday excited to go enjoy a 5 star restaurant, but when we hopped in the car, ready to leave, we Googled the restaurant for directions and it showed CLOSED. We were devastated, as my wife even skipped food the night before, in anticipation of getting some really good eats. SO...still craving really good Mexican food, look to Google again, and found La Parada! La Parada was AMAZING! I ordered a Carne Asada Burrito AND a two enchilada plate, and both dishes were great, but the burrito definitely topped it all. It had a perfectly crisp homemade tortilla, and everything tasted just right. My wife said it was the best Menudo she had since being a child having her Grandmother's...and she's had a lot of Menudo since then! Thank you La Parada for being the best thing about our weekend with your good service, and amazing food. I can't wait to come back next year! read more

I LOVE YOU LA PARADA! Thank you for your delicious foods that are clearly made with love, thank you for your awesome service.

Normally I LOVE this place but, right now, with mom and pop small businesses not doing to well. You would think that when this servers mom is back there working her butt off cooking, you would treat people with a little respect. My mom, sister and I walk in 8/7/21 at 11:15am she greeted us with "Hi how many?" I said "3 of us" she said "did you make a reservation?" I said "oh I'm sorry I didn't know you guys still required that" she came back with "Well obviously you can see that we are busy" with her hands up then slapped down on the podium. It's a busy weekend and we wouldn't have minded a wait. But we walked out after that. I will never recommend or go back again. Sucks but there's other places that would love my money right now. read more

La Parada Cafe - The shrimp cocktail and the meat mochaete? Can't spell it lol - Mexican Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Best breakfast place in Reno. My wife and I stop for breakfast every time we are in Reno. Staff is polite and good at there job.

Service and food was outstanding! First time visiting and will definitely be coming back.

La Parada staff were welcoming and friendly. They checked in to see how I was doing, and refilled my drink, as needed. Menu items included traditional Mexican fare, and unique items, as well. They serve breakfast--I had a Chile Relleno Omelet...which was super yummy. The horchata was fresh and delicious, and speckled with cinnamon. Heaven. I plan to return for dinner and order the Margarita Tropical--doesn't that sound like a fiesta in a glass? There was plenty of seating. The restaurant was very clean. Prices were reasonable. I highly recommend La Parada. read more

La Parada is one of those Mexican restaurants that give Mexican restaurants a good name! Service: Regardless of who is providing service at your table, you will be treated with a smile and friendly service. Food: Top notch and tasty too. From their refried beans to any of their Entrées from breakfast to dinner, it's good. I can personally vouch for their breakfast. Environment: The restaurant is located in an old store front building. It's quaint inside with all types of adornments draped along the walls. Location: This can be a bit tricky. It's easy to drive right by without noticing it. Located on the SW corner of Kietzke and Lewis St, you need to look for it. ---------------- Bottom Line Yes Yes and Yes. I have been there numerous times with my wife and dad. We have never been disappointed. I will be back! read more

Medium size restaurant with nice atmosphere and decor. The staff is great and really try to provide superb service, their attention to detail in each plate is evident. It may take a while at times but it's worth the. Wait as all is made to oder amd can tell all is made from scratch with great flavor. I wish I had restaurants available back home like these, everything I had at this restaurant tasted great and I left happy and satisfied. Tried the lengua en salsa verde which was quite tender and juicy. I also tried the huevos rancheros, birria plate, birria tacos and some others. read more

Horrible service. Restaurant was almost closing and we werent welcomed. We came here to eat tacos and the lady didn't bring chips and salsa she said they don't bring chips and salsa for people that just order tacos. But when a white family came in they brought chips and salsa without asking what they were ordering. When my daughter got her taco there was a hair on it, we told the lady and she got mad since we told her. Don't recommends it. on and the handmade tortillas are just warmed up they don't make them as you place your order. read more

September 30, 2017 Saturday - 8:30 am for breakfast. 2 Adults Atmosphere - 5 stars Food - 5 stars Service - 5stars Background - I was here last time for the Monthly Breakfast Club UYE and had to get back. Atmosphere - An older building that is divided into a few businesses and they are on the north end of the building. Reminds me as if my Grandma decorated the place, clear plastic sheets over the table clothes. Keeps them clean but feels weird. Food Drink - Just water as I had my fill of coffee already, did not know I was going out for breakfast. Breakfast - Machaca burrito with shredded beef with home fries, and refried beans. The burrito had a little heat, just enough to notice. There was a cup of green salsa that had a little more heat if needed. The burrito was the just the right side for me, I was full when I was done. The potatoes had a nice crisp to them, perfectly cooked. Service - Greeted by our waitress as soon as we came in. The food came out fast. Future - Oh yeah. read more

Great vibes, the service was amazing and attentive. Both the chorizo tacos and the Birria are fantastic! And they've got mimosas for a pretty good price as well. Definitely an amazing family owned staple! read more

I like the ambience inside very clean and helpful server breakfast was good. Fresh ingredients parking in the back clean restroom very friendly nice price and serving size was my only complaint 14 dollars for a burrito looked lost on the plate that it was served on. The portion of potatoes looked like half a potato 46 dollars for two. No chips and salsa while you wait? That's extra. Refried beans are not refried. If they increased the portion I'd go back. read more

They got our order wrong. Asked for a carnitas taco and brought me asada . Also there was hair in our food . asked for a regular water and they brought me a horchata. We asked a couple times for chips and they didn't bring us some. read more

The food was a good proportion, not a ton of extra food. My huevos ranchero and OJ was tasty and hit the spot. My husband enjoyed his torta with carne asada but would have preferred it with hot sauce and pickled vegetables. The ingredients were good and the steak was not grisly. The atmosphere was nice. read more

We have been here before, for a UYE MBC, but never for lunch. They have a good size parking lot in the back with easy access to the restaurant. They have lunch specials, that start at 7.99 and several different combos. The lunch special is served with rice and beans. I ordered the Enchilada and taco. The taco was good, a small street size taco with chicken filling. I added green salsa to it an it gave it the kick I was looking for. The Enchiladas was covered in red Enchilada sauce with chicken filling. It is a tasty meal for cheap. We both had water and the bill came to 16.00 dollars. Definitely will be back. read more

Beans and rice were tasteless. The rice portion was very small. The lengua was a little chewy and not tender like it should be.

Great little hole in the wall. Had the truck tacos for lunch and they were great. The service was outstanding.

The service is AMAZING, but the food.... the food is to die for. I had the quesa-birra taco combo and it was delicious. They double wrap them and melt cheese between the two tortillas (talk about a cheese pull). My boyfriend had their carne asada burrito. The meat was very flavorful and not fatty and the tortilla was chewy but crispy on the outside. If I lived in Reno this would be my go-to spot! We also had a beer ($5) and large mimosa ($8). read more

Right off the bat, the service is top notch. I got the chorizo burrito for brunch and I must say, it's really good. You just know it's homemade from how delicious it is. My girlfriend and I have been looking for good restaurants around reno, and this place is definitely a go to. We'll definitely be back again read more

La Parada has amazing breakfast. My wife and I went to Reno for my work conference. We stayed at the Grand Sierra which has restaurants that are overpriced and the food was not good. I found La Parada on the internet and went there twice for breakfast. First visit we both had the Egg Benedicts but had the eggs place over the potatoes and no English muffin. I had the Veggie Benedict and my wife had the Lobster Benedict. Each was delicious and the eggs ran over the potatoes perfectly. The next visit we had the Omelettes. I had the Crab omelette and my wife had the Lobster omelette. Delicious and perfectly cooked. The staff was great and friendly. Thanks. read more

Great taste, price, and authentic flavors!! We always get al la cart and the fish tacos are incredible! This restaurant is a perfect example of "don't judge a book by its cover." It doesn't look like much on the outside but it will by far exceed your expectations! read more

After searching for a place to eat that was Mexican and offered breakfast and lunch. I read all their reviews and had hope so I made my husband drive us there we get there at about 12:30 or so and the host turned us down for seating and said they were only offering take out. Mind you we were a family of 5 and they didn't close till 2. Disappointed read more

My belly and heart are so full right now!!!! This is hands down the best menudo I've had since my grandpa's! Even though there was no hominy, the flavor was out of this world and the tripe just melted in your mouth. Eating it gave me warm memories of watching my grandpa make it as a kid and being so excited for it to be done and ready to eat. I'll come back to Reno every year for this restaurant. The tacos were amazing and the way the tortillas have a perfect crisp to them, OH MY GAWD. Seriously unreal how great the food was, cute little restaurant and very welcoming, friendly and attentive staff. read more
