~ A Social Dinner Party in Washington DC at Paraiso Taqueria ~
The Dinner Table is reserving a semi-private dining space at Paraiso to host and curate an evening of lasting connections through our dinner party experience.
Paraíso Taqueria & Mezcaleria brings vibrant Mexican-inspired flavors to DC’s dining scene, blending street-style taste with homestyle quality. "Creative cuisine inspired by the streets & home kitchens of México."
Chef Geovany Beltran crafts colorful heirloom‐corn tortillas for tacos featuring bold fillings — from braised pork al pastor to roasted eggplant — while creative mezcal and tequila flights add an elevated twist. With an ambiance that strikes the perfect balance between casual and elevated, Paraiso offers the ideal backdrop for our community evening — a place where bold flavors meet meaningful conversations.
There is plenty of street parking available around Paraíso and their closest metro stations are the Eastern Market and Potomac Avenue stations.
