El Paseo Mexican Restaurant

It's excellent for what it is, which is high-end, authentic East Texas Tex-Mex, only in North Texas. Hands down, my favorite place for Tex Mex is Mezcales, next door. However, El Paseo is every bit as consistent. The food is just not elevated like at Mezcales. That said, from a Longviewian, El Paseo is excellent East Texas Tex-Mex.

Best tex-Mex I've had in a while. I cleaned my plate! I enjoyed the queso and then a combination platter including one of their chicken enchiladas with sour cream sauce and a tamale with a chili con Carne. The chips had a seasoning on them and were the perfect start. The polo mexicana platter was equally delicious and there classic taco platter. they're Spanish rice is by far the top side ahead of any restaurant thus far in Texas.

My wife and I were one of the original customers here in the mid 80s. It was good then but even better now . At 3:30 in the afternoon we were greeted as we entered and were promptly sedated . Ordered margaritas that were excellent. Aldo was our server. He was helpful in selecting meal. Did not rush us nor over attentive. Food was served promptly and was fresh and hot. A little pricey but the serving was huge. Brought a serving home. Definitely worth driving for it. Go hungry. Hope you have as good an experience as we did. UPDATE Enjoyed an excellent lunch along with the test of the emergency alert system on Wednesday. We were greeted as entered, seated immediately and served chips as we sat down. Angel was our server. Took our order for margaritas 🍹, they only have 1 size, large. Not only was it delicious, but priced for any budget. Ten lunch specials were priced at $8.99 and serving size was more like higher priced dinner plate. Everything was perfect. Best Tex-Mex in the metroplex.

I came here with my family and I was pleasantly surprised. The service was great, the atmosphere was nice. The food was delicious. I ordered the chicken quesadilla, my children ate tacos and we all enjoyed the chips and queso. My only complaints are that the tortillas were not homemade they tasted store bought for sure and I didn't like having to wait in line at the register to pay the check. Waiting in a line with kids jumping around while we're all blocking the front door was super uncomfortable, for me at least. Other than that we had a nice experience. We'll most likely go back.
