El Paragua’s Story
A true “American Dream” story, El Paragua has served incredible New Mexican cuisine in Española for over 50 years. The restaurant, which began as a roadside stand created by two entrepreneurial boys and supported by their parents, is a local favorite and a must-stop venue for those traveling through the area.
Family-owned and operated, the restaurant maintains its feel of home and stays true to its rich history by providing the type of service and quality that have kept it as a northern New Mexico favorite for decades.
