Closed now, but Parranga in Mill Valley was a vibrant spot known for mouthwatering quesabirrias, handmade tortillas, and friendly service in a lively setting.
"The restaurant has been offering quesabirria as a special, which should be available all the time." - Luke Tsai
"While a restaurant exactly like Flores might not exist in Marin County, there are some higher end Mexican restaurants excelling in the area, including Playa and Parranga in Mill Valley and Copita Tequileria y Comida in Sausalito. Corte Madera, however, remains lacking in such options." - Janelle Bitker
"Parranga, located in the Strawberry Village shopping center in Mill Valley, Marin County, is a Mexican restaurant from the team behind Colibri in Union Square. Owner Eduardo Rallo and chef Jose Miguel Smith Bustos emphasize slow-cooked meats in Parranga’s rotisserie, used in tacos, tortas, and salads. They offer a variety of options including roasted pork shoulder in a pineapple-chile marinade. The restaurant's industrial-designed space features communal tables. Parranga supports local produce from area farms and pastries from La Victoria bakery. The beverage menu includes beer, margaritas, sangria, shakes, smoothies, juices, and Mexican Coke. Non-dairy and customizable sweetness options are available for shakes and smoothies. The name 'Parranga' signifies 'endless joy' and is a nod to the tongue twister Parangaricutirimicuaro. The venue opens for lunch and dinner, with plans to add breakfast and brunch." - Rachel Vigoda
