About El Paisano

El Paisano is a popular Mexican/Salvadorian restaurant offering a wide range of options at a reasonable price. The menu features vegetarian options such as pupusas, plátano frito, tamales, and bean burritos, although some dishes may contain lard. The restaurant's salsa bar is a highlight, and the posole dish can be ordered ahead of time. Customers often praise the fresh-made pupusas, calling them the best in Reno and made from scratch. The food is solid, and the overall experience is positive, with great service and a welcoming atmosphere. While the place may not focus on flashy aesthetics, it is highly recommended for tasty, reasonably priced takeout and dine-in options.

Share your opinion about El Paisano

The food is really good! Best pupusas in town! The lorroco ones are my favorite! The service is what you expect when you order pick up at a busy business. They offer a bar area to let you bag up your sauces, and sides. You can dine in but it is loud, stuffy and not as cozy.
Love this place, always so good
Fresh food, homemade tortillas, dirty tables, slow service.
