The food is very good, but it takes forever to be served!!
This way the waiters look at you, they serve you until they want ?
He spends his time just talking

Pretty mid, the food was no better than frozen food from sams, and the service was friendly but slow.

Absolutely loved it! First time being here and everything is wonderful! For the price, you get big portions and tons of flavor! 10/10 recommend!
Kid-friendliness: Amazing environment and energy! Kid friendless at it’s finest, and has an amazing photo wall by the entrance with a vine wall and angel wings.

My favorite Mexican restaurant. The people are so attentive and polite.
We just moved to the area. Have been to several Mexican restaurants in town. This one is hands down the best we have had yet. Highly recommend this one.

Was in Carbondale for work for a few days and my hosts brought me here for lunch one day. I found El Paisano to be as good, or better, than several of the "authentic" Mexican restaurants in my hometown.The chips were perfect and the salsa had a perfect blend of flavor and spiciness; not too much and not too little. They did bring other sauces to add if one desired more heat though.I ordered three chorizo street tacos which were incredible, with more than enough meat and other toppings to be filling but not overly so. 10/10 I'd eat here again to try something else off the menu.
