Very good, reasonable, and authentic Mexican Fare by Barry E. at InsiderPages

Paquitos has been around for many years near the intersection of Biscayne and NE 163rd St. In fact, before the strip mall was built years ago, they were there in a stand alone, but very small, building. It was...

Best Mexican food in town

Looking for real Mexican food, not tex-mex or imitations, then Paquito's is for you.. Make sure to ask for corn tortillas, not flour ones, unless you're from northern Mexico.
