Reviews for El paisano Mexican restaurant & Taqueria in Doraville, GA

My new favorite place. The tacos are big so don't order too many!

I had a steak quesadilla, rice and beans, and a bottled Coca-Cola. Before tip, they charged me nearly $20.00. It was not the... best quality steak. $22.00 with tip for a quesadilla and soda?! That was my first and last time! Read more

I ordered the nachos, paid $20. (I added rice ots) It was supposed to to come with cheese. There was no cheese to be found. Ok... cool. I continue eating and I see this weird object in my food. I have no idea what it is but it resembles some type of stick orstem?I instantly lost my appetite ???? Read more

Decent food, but don't waste your money on delivery. I placed a fairly simple order for five people. Two chicken fajita... platters, a steak nachos, a ground beef nachos, and a torta. The torta was the only thing they got right. However, the tortaalong with all the other food arrived soggy because the sauces weren't wrapped up tightly and leaked all over the food. Theydon't allow special requests on their doordash profile, so the nachos came with lettuce and tomato added in rather than on theside as was preferred. They only sent one fajita platter instead of the two that I ordered, and the one that they sent arrivedwithout vegetables or tortillas. Based on the other reviews I might go in to eat, but I definitely won't order delivery fromthem again. Read more

Portions are generous though somehow the prices still seem overwhelming compared to similar places. Drinks are also way... overpriced. There's no one aware of the drive-thru, yet there's a sign claiming that the drive-thru is "NOW OPEN". Employees donot seem happy to help you. They weren't particularly rude, but there's also not a smile on their face. Also the place is alwaysempty when I've visited. Read more

*Save your money* Ordered fajita nachos after waiting 25m the waiter came out to tell me they didn't have steak. The fajita... nachos would only be chicken and shrimp. I said that was fine as long as there wasn't an upcharged.. they told me there wouldntbe a charge. Then was charged an extra 3 dollars for subpar food. Ate here a few times but won't be again.

It overpricing!! The drinks are almost $6 and they wanted to charge me $15 for a lunch Oder and it expensive for 2 people. ????

Tuesday equals tacos I've made it my mission to visit as many Mexican restaurants in the area and Tuesday I gave this place a... try. It's located right off Buford hwy near 285. It wasn't many people in when I came in. I walked to the counter and looked atthe menu. I knew I wanted a tacos and they only offer 2 non meat tacos that I recall, fish and shrimp. I ordered one fish,fried, and 2 shrimp, both with onions and cilantro. I sat down and waited then realized they were street tacos and I wouldprobably want a side, so I went back up and ordered a side of rice and beans. This was all to go. I got my food with a side ofspicy salsa and was on my way. I got home and was so excited. The tacos and pieces of fish and shrimp were small, but they werereally good. I added a little lime and a little of the spicy salsa and that gave it a little extra something. The beans and ricewere good as well. They are also open until 4am on Friday and Saturday! Read more
