Bold Latin flavors, handcrafted cocktails, and an atmosphere that turns a simple dinner into something you'll remember. Welcome to your new favorite night out.
Our Story
El Paraiso started with a simple belief: the best meals are the ones that bring people together. Our kitchen draws from the bold, sun-drenched traditions of Latin America — the sizzle of the plancha, the brightness of fresh cilantro and lime, the deep warmth of slow braises — and presents them in a space where everyone is welcome.
Located on Broad Rock Blvd in Richmond, we've become a neighborhood gathering place for families, friends, and anyone who believes a great meal is worth savoring. Every dish is prepared with intention, every cocktail crafted to complement, and every guest treated like a regular from the moment they walk in.

"The cocktails are next level — my margarita was the best I've had in Richmond. The vibe is energetic but you can still have a conversation. Staff was super friendly too."
"Brought my family here for a birthday and they made it special. The portions are generous, the flavors are authentic, and the energy is contagious. We'll be back."
