Parranga - Mill Valley

My mother and I stayed here after a hiking and camping trip in Marin. The restaurant's interior was colorful and bright, and there was plenty of sunny outdoor seating. We were greeted immediately and ordered the Al Pastor, Carnitas, and Marinated Grilled Fish Tacos, along with the pork wedge Verde and chicken mules. The tacos arrived at our table quickly, and the homemade tortillas were delicious. Everything we tried was mouth-wateringly good, and we were thrilled by the wonderful food and friendly service. I highly recommend visiting! *I apologize for the little food in the photo— I got so caught up in enjoying the meal that I forgot to take a proper picture!

The tacos and chicken were absolutely delicious, and the margarita refills were fantastic. The staff went above and beyond to take care of us. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

WOW! This place was amazing! I’m not exaggerating at all; I've explored a fair number of popular taquerias and hidden gems, and Parranga stands out. Two unique items immediately caught my attention on their menu: quesabirrias and cochinita pibil tacos. Quesabirrias are fried tacos filled with beef and cheese, served with a rich consommé for dipping. They are just as delicious as they sound, and it's not often you find them on many menus. Fortunately, this is a fantastic example of how quesabirrias should taste. The cochinita pibil was a monthly special that I had to try, featuring flavorful pork served on an incredibly good handmade tortilla. Speaking of which, I absolutely love these tortillas... I could eat them with everything if I had the chance! The asada taco was excellent and flavorful as well, and the green salsa was a delightful addition. My fiancée, who is Mexican, also agreed that everything was delicious, even the chilaquiles, though I would personally recommend focusing on the tacos and quesabirrias. We will definitely be back once we feel safe in the area!

Loved the shrimp tacos! The chicken taquitos, and al pastor and Carnitas tacos were solid. Nice outdoor seating area.

We have been to Parranga twice now and we love it! You can see by the picture the bones (empty plates) of our food. We love everything. The people that run Parranga are very friendly and you can tell they really want you to enjoy the food because they're proud of what they do. So far I think the fried plantain and the burrito are my favorite items on the menu. Concerning covid: the tables are generously spaced apart and we felt comfortable eating outside. Indoor dining appears to be mostly empty still which I'm okay with given the risks of covid still being relevant regardless of what is allowed by the county. There was enough outdoor seating to handle everybody anyway.
