Taqueria El Paso

This has turned into one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. It's cozy, the food is great, and the…read morepeople here are so friendly and attentive. We discovered Amigos a couple years ago, when seating was very limited, but they recently expanded and the decor is more inviting and authentic. We've tried a lot of things on this menu and have never been disappointed. Our food has always been fresh and plentiful, served with a smile. Two things I can ecstatically recommend: their house guacamole and their margaritas. Their hearty and bold guacamole is made fresh to order right at your table and it's become our favorite guacamole. We love their mango margaritas. We have found chunks of mango in ours, and make certain to always get the rims coated with tajin because they use tamarind to get the spice to stick to the rim--so tasty! This is a really enjoyable restaurant we always look forward to visiting!

Stopped by here on a trip to the Cleveland area and it certainly did not disappoint. This place…read moreabsolutely hit the spot. The food was incredibly authentic - I tried the birria burrito, a menu item I've never come across before. It was phenomenal, the consommé was to die for. I was drinking it like soup; it was perfect. Washed down with a ice cold glass of draft Modelo, I couldn't ask for more. For dessert, a tres leches cake topped with Oreo crumbles. This fell short, as it seems it was prepared days ahead of time - lacked in freshness. Still good though, just not the best. Our server was super friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was like any authentic Mexican restaurant, nothing unexpected. Overall this place definitely satisfied the craving for some Mexican food, and I would definitely recommend checking it out if you're in the area.

It's not my first choice for anything in the area and definitely not my first choice when I want Mexican. The thing about the greater Akron area and their Mexican food is that it's really not that good. All of these restaurants serve the same 'mexican'. If you want REAL Mexican food, try Carnitas and Tacos on Canton road in Ellet. Or head up to Cleveland where there are plenty of authentic Mexican food options that will absolutely blow your mind and make your taste buds go insane. One taste of truly great Mexican/Puerto Rican/Latin/Cuban food will probably change your entire perspective on the Akron food scene. For this particular visit, the salsa was good and the service was friendly and was reasonably cheap for lunch. They weren't that busy so the food came out pretty quickly and seemed freshly prepared.

From taco truck to taqueria, Reynaldo and Marison are still serving up some of the most delicious and quite authentic Mexican food. Best priced, and always great quality. Come hungry because the portions will leave too full to move. Weekend specials are also the way to go if you really think you want the REAL-DEAL Mexican food - for me its either menudo or birria. You may also find vegetarian options and vegans can stick to beans and rice burritos, or salads. Also make sure you try the aguas frescas, my favorite is mango and pineapple mixed together. The red water is hibiscus water. Lastly, be prepared to wait for about 10min for your food to come out, Reynaldo and Marisol are cooking from scratch so don't expect fast-food speed, quality food takes time! read more

I recently visited Taqueria El Paso for lunch, and it was amazing. Though it might not seem like much on the outside, looks are very deceiving. The food is incredible! I had the carne asada torta, and it was filling. Honestly, half of the sandwich would have been more than enough. If you're looking for authentic and delicious Mexican food, this place is a must-try. Highly recommend! read more
