Food was delicious, and the portions were huge. The spice level was varied and suitable for everyone's spice levels from mild to HOT Service was OK, I've seen alot of complaints in the reviews about the service, I didn't think it was as bad as others have said. I didn't have to wait on refills, and the table/check was brought in a timely manner.

The food was delicious. The ambiance is fun you get a sombrero Mexican birthday son and a birthday flare a dessert. It's really fun and they got kareoke Fridays and Saturdays. We love coming to the place we had a lot of people checking in on us and all were so helpful. We will definitely be coming back all their food was delicious.

Went there for a meeting I was invited to , pretty big place, loud a bit, we had "all you can eat tacos" I am pretty sure it's a good deal based on how many ppl where there. Come, see it for yourself, I think they have all you can eat Mon-Fr. Tacos were very fresh, but again, I am not a big fan

Clean, good food with generous amounts. We've eaten here a couple times and never been disappointed. The blurry picture was a taco platter with a variety of tacos. Very good. The chimichanga is what a chimichanga should be! Big, full of meat, and deep fried. We followed the lunch crowd and had great service, every time.

Read the reviews and decided to give El Paisa a try. We were not disappointed. Service was friendly, welcoming. Complimentary chips and salsa. We started with queso fondido, was served hot with side of roasted onions and jalapeño. This was a melty cheesy ooey gooey deliousness!! Must try. We had the chicken burrito supreme covered with green sauce. This burrito is Huge! Full of juicy, tender chicken with guacamole and tomato. Taco birra parrilla was soooo tender and the delicious au jus.. Perfect! Taco platter with asada, carnitas, pastor all meats were tender and melt in your mouth. The servings on all meals are huge, served hot. Diana was our server- she was so friendly. We will back back to try their taco bar!!

The biggest Chimmi I've ever seen. This is the first time here and a salad to boot! Sweet.

Great buffet! I love the Mexican vibes in this place and the cantina. I went in during their lunch buffet (M-F 11a-2pm). Unlimited tacos w beans and rice. I came by myself, but I saw others come in alone for the buffet as well! The tacos were mini sized, and I appreciate that! It gives me room to try all of them. I personally did not like chicken Chipotle. I mean, maybe others are into it. Try it and let me know your thoughts! Hahaha! The service was great! As soon as I arrived I headed straight to the tacos, when I came back my drink and salsa w chips was already at my table. When you go to the taco bar, you are greeted by two people. They ask how many tacos, they warm up your Tortillas and then you have a variety of taco meats to choose from, which they kindly dish up for you, then they offer you a plate of beans and rice. I only took them up on it once bc I wanted to make room for tacos. It was delicious, and I would recommend it to everyone! I had 10 tacos, I would've prob ate 2 more or another serving of beans and rice, but I had an upcoming appt and had to rush out. Thoroughly enjoyed this place!

I really liked this place. We stopped in after a cheer competition. We were all starving, this place was just what we needed. All the food was really good, the hamburger was as big as my daughter's face. I don't know if it was really bigger than any other burger but it seemed big when she picked it up. Kids chicken was good, there was live entertainment with a "country" singer. It was all very entertaining and good food. They chips and salsa were awesome. If we lived closer this place would definitely be a regular for us. They had some kind of lunch taco bar, I don't remember the details of when they do it but I bet that's good and the price was a good deal (I don't remember how much they said it was but it was a good deal for what it offers). Next time we're in the Ogden area I'd like to go back.
