Excellent service – friendly, attentive, and made the night very special for us while visiting. The food was great as well. We had the Mexican Paella, chef’s combo, and quesadillas de chorizo. Margaritas were also delicious, made with fresh fruit. The flan and dessert cocktail were also delicious. Highly recommended. There is bar seating and also more intimate dinner areas. Thank you guys for making dinner a great time for us!

El Parador is a true hidden gem in Murray Hill, delivering classic Mexican cuisine with an old-school charm that still draws a loyal crowd. It’s one of those places where the energy feels timeless, and the food hits all the right notes.
The margaritas are outstanding—strong, smooth, and perfectly balanced. Whether you’re sipping a classic or going for something spicy or fruity, you really can’t go wrong. Pair them with their crispy, house-made chips and salsa, and you’re off to a great start.

Happy hour is a blast here—lively but not overwhelming. It’s a great spot to unwind after work, especially with friends. Don’t miss the sizzling fajitas, which come out hot and fragrant, filling the whole room with that irresistible aroma.
El Parador has a cozy, old-school vibe—dim lighting, warm colors, and a kind of throwback elegance—but don’t let that fool you: it’s still very popular, and the dining room often fills up fast. Make a reservation to avoid a wait, especially on weekends or during happy hour.
In short: great drinks, solid food, fun atmosphere. A classic that continues to deliver.
