$19 adobo consisting of one scoop of rice, onions, sauce over 3 chunks of pork (see photo). Tasty enough but value ratio is needs no further comment than the photo. Go to the Korean food place a few stalls down and order a $15 BBQ chicken bowl one day and see the dramatic difference in quality and quantity.

not authentic peruvian food, lomo was not lomo and pollo wasnt pollo.

Please don't put your advertisement under my windshield wipers making me think I received a parking ticket. Thanks

Solid Peruvian restaurant albeit with a limited menu and small portions. My chicken sandwich and tacos were flavorful. The garlic fries could have used more garlic. The cocktails were great.

Service was friendly, and the ambiance at Public Market is lively and festive.

Overall, a good meal and I'd eat here again.

If you’re looking for flavorful, top-notch Peruvian food, Paradita is the spot. I can’t recommend the Tacos Adobo enough, seriously. They blew me away. And I’m a huge taco lover, so that says a lot. We also tried the Aji de Gallina Empanada (it’s chicken), and wow! It was packed with flavor. The salsa they serve with it was just right.

The staff were super friendly and really attentive. We got to watch some soccer while we ate, and the whole vibe was relaxed and welcoming. We’re definitely coming back, and if you haven’t been yet, you should give it a try. You won’t be disappointed!

Public market can get a little packed on the weekends, but I love the Paradita salad and their yucca 💕

We’ve had Paradita catered our work lunch. It was delicious and plentiful. I regularly order Lomo Saltado bowl.

Ate here during trivia night at the food hall and really enjoyed it. My adobo was really tasty but I wish there was just a bit more of it. Will probably come back next time I visit the food hall, and may check out some other menu items. Service was also quick and friendly which was really nice

I had a chance to stop by my favorite Peruvian restaurant in the Bay Area yesterday and they did not disappoint. The vibe and the location are two selling points for me, also there is a bar next door and friendly people. #LomoSaltado #GoodEats #DiversityMatters #EmeryvillePublicMarket

Amazing food and service. Got the $18 happy hour deal with a large taco, rib, and slider + draft beer, left full and happy.

Give this place a try next time you’re in Emeryville!

Enjoyed the happy hour drinks especially the pisco sour -- also tried the sangria and chilcano. The empanada had a flaky croissant texture. The pork sandwich and yucca fries were ok. Also tried the platanos fritos (fried bananas) with a tamarind syrup.

The food was incredibly flavorful. We loved the flavor of the lomo saltado plate and the ribs. Everyone who was working was very helpful and it's in a great space. I want to try the maracuya pisco sour next time!

I've been coming here for years. I love the Aji de Gallina bowl. Portions have gotten smaller. Unused to feel fully satisfied after eating but now am still a bit hungry. Passion fruit Pisco sour is alwaysy go to and hasn't changed.
