Being your appetite. Fajitas with mixed meat and shrimp is enough for to feed 4 people. Great price for 2 people at 19.95

Very fast service. Food was good, not great. Dacquiri had no liquor in it, I'm sure (not a problem for me, though.) Online menu price for what we ordered was about $4 less than the actual price we paid.

The food was very good, service was good. The only issue we had was they only honored 9.30 of the 10 amount as they stated they had to collect tax on the gift certificate. First restaurant that has ever done this. Will go back though as food as very good.

Food is fast and great. However I ordered from the specials menu on the wall only to find out at the register that those were from sunday (2 days ago) which led me to paying ~$13 OVER what I would have had the specials prices. Environment is so-so. Waitress was wonderful.

Food and Service was very good. Entry into the restaurant was not welcoming... there were chairs piled up at the door and it was not apparent where the hostess station was located. The entry way aside, the atmosphere was cozy. Overall great value for the money.

Great Service and Really Really Good Food! Appetizers are very good and the Lunch and Dinner Items are cooked very well. My Wife had the Mixed Frijitas and I had the Chili Rellenos. And both choices turned out to be as good as Mexican Food as we have ever had!!! And the Prices of the Food are VERY Reasonable Too! Try El Parian once and you will go back!!!

The manager and staff are very friendly. Those warm nachos and sauce they bring out to you for you to enjoy while they are making your mean are a real treat. You can also ask for a different sauce, as I do.
