El Paisano Taqueria is finally open in Woodland. The 2,500-square-foot restaurant is a brick-and-mortar expansion of its popular food truck with the same name.

It has been close to opening for months, and made its debut last week. It fills the former California Market, at 1490 E. Main St. in Woodland. It’s open all day, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. It also planned to offer some of the Mediterranean and Persian dishes that were favorites at the former Saffron restaurant down the street, which was owned by the late brother of the El Paisano owner.

El Paisano is shown inside, along with a takeout order of carne asada and al pastor tacos. (Comings & Goings photos)
