el paraiso

yuck!. i was hoping for something half decent, but was sorely disappointed. only wish i'd read the reviews here before going. mytacocame with a hard shell kinda like the trash you get in an old el paso box at your local grocery store. i was quite shocked. i guess the culinary scene in everett is stuck in the 80's which is really sad considering how close it is to seattle.

it wasn't cheap either. $18 for two nasty enchiladas and the singletacobell style taco. at least the modello was good. if you're looking for authentic then give this place a miss, however, if you like your food swimming is molten cheese, sour cream, refried beans, nasty rice, rubbery chicken and a huge dollop of guacamole then this is definitely your domain.

the worst restaurant ever!!!!!!!. all around bad. i wanted to go here because they advertise that they have homemade tortillas. they do, but all you get is one at the door. i got tacos thinking "mmmm homemade tortillas". wrong. the tacos were first of all hard tacos (which they didn't mention in the menu). second they were the same kind you get at the grocery store. and the meat was bland, the beans tasted like they came out of a can and the enchilada sauce tasted like raviolis. they asked me how the food was. so i told them i was disappointed. so they fried a tortilla for me instead of pulling another one out of the box. the new tortilla didn't taste like tortilla, it taste like a vat of oil. i lost my appetite. then the manager came out to talk to us. he wouldn't take any blame. it was my fault because of "miscommunication." he dodged the comment about the enchilada sauce. also he didn't offer to compensate anything. i left in tears and with an empty stomach, which i have never done. so if you like food that taste like a can this is the place for you. i should have gone totacobell. so thirty dollars later i am mad and hungry.

ok pedestrian fare. good quality but a carbon copy of most tex-mex places in the northwest. try atacotruck.
