El Patrón Mexican Restaurant 280, Birmingham

Phenomenal fajitas, fantastic chicken and rice, chips and salsa were amazing, no wait for seating or food. The portions are enough for two meals! Attentive waiter, and the bathrooms were even very clean. 10/10 expierence, also very affordable.

Our absolute favorite Mexican spot in Birmingham! The staff remembers you and truly treat you like family. They surprised my friend with a slice of chocolate cake for her “baby shower” since she’s close to giving birth. We are forever customers here!!

It’s always a good time when having dinner with my husband. The food is good.

Food good, good prices

WOOOOOWWWW!!!! My wife and I love trying new places and we love Mexican food and this place is great. Service is 10 stars alone and the food came out so fast that we thought we ordered fast food. Mind you it’s lunchtime and the lunch specials are great. The people are pleasant and the prices are great. Don’t take our word for it come on in and try it for yourself. Oh and the sweet tea is awesome.

Does not close at 10pm on Monday. Drove across town for them to be closed by 9:07pm.

A friend of mine and I had lunch at this restaurant yesterday. It was my first time eating there and as usual at a New Mexican restaurant I ordered a shrimp fajita dinner, not the lunch menu item. (I always like to take some home for a later snack.). It was quite good and had an ample amount of shrimp. My friend and I shared a bowl of guacamole, it was good, but I didn’t find it anything special

The service was good and the atmosphere was that of a typical Mexican restaurant.

Our go to restaurant when it's Mexican date night. Maria is our favorite server. She is always so pleasant!

Good menu options in my opinion.

Seriously good. Chicken fajita burrito.

Food was OK. Ordered the burrito grande which was to have ground beef and chicken. Only had beef. They did bring a small dish of shredded chicken when I asked about it. Plate looked rather bland as it was a flour tortilla with white cheese sauce. A little shredded lettuce, salsa and guacamole would have made it more appealing to the eye.

Food was typical US Mexican… not bad but nothing to write home about… I ordered a raspberry margarita, it didn’t taste like raspberry but I didn’t complain. The main reason I’m writing this is because the smell of the bathroom…. It stunk, smelled like sewage or something. There were also gnats flying around the dining area. Not sure what the health score is… I’m just going to pray about it lol. Server was Mary I believe, she was very nice.
