Reviews for El Paraiso Mexican-Italian Restaurant in Chino Valley, AZ

One of our favorite area restaurants with consistently good food and service. Try the Vegetarian Enchiladas with Alfredo Sauce... because they are delicious. The margaritas are pretty tasty too?just saying! Read more

What do you want tonight, Mexican or Italian. It's a funny combination, but it really works. We only went for the Mexican that... night, but other had the Italian it looked great also. Fun friendly staff. The Margarita was great as was the cold Corona. Theywere even able to accommodate our "no onions" request, which is sometimes difficult if ingredients are pre-mixed. We appreciatedthe freshness and quality of the food. Read more

Great tasting food! The food was delicious and the staff was very friendly and attentive. The best feature, in my opinion, is... the number of different gluten free options of pasta they offer! There are not many places in this area that cater to those ofus that love Italian food but can?t eat gluten. We have found a new favorite local restaurant. Read more

Five stars doesn?t seem like enough to grade this GREAT establishment!!???? My partner and I GOOGLED restaurants to eat at in... Chino Valley and this one came up w lots of positive reviews and we thought we?d give it a try - Mexican AND Italian offered inthe same place? How can that not be amazing?! Greeted upon entering by a waitstaff member, we were told to sit wherever wewanted. I was immediately impressed with how CLEAN and orderly the restaurant was and thought the decor was tasteful and notoverly done. Our server was quick w our drink order and placed chips and tasty salsa on the table straightaway. The chips werejust how I like them - fresh, thin and lightly salted w no lingering oily aftertaste. My partner ordered a taco salad w carneasada and I, the House Enchiladas w cheese. The wait for our food was minimal and oh my what a delight when it arrived at ourtable! Not only was everything DELICIOUS but it was beautifully presented (see pictures) - both of us were quiteimpressed!! Every ingredient was fresh, the blend of spices perfect - not too heavy or too much heat - the guacamole that cameon the taco salad was honestly the best we?ve ever had. The carne asada was fork tender and the taste spot on. My enchiladasfilled and entire plate and the beans and rice came separately, that?s how large the portions are here. I only ever orderenchiladas when I dine in a Mexican restaurant as the dish is my absolute favorite. I can honestly say the enchiladas I had heretoday were the BEST I?ve ever eaten - the sauce was simply delicious!! We will be back to dine again and next time we?ll tryitems off the Italian menu. I?m so pleased we?ve found our new favorite restaurant that?s so close to where we live!!! Read more
