I placed 2 different orders totalling almost 80$ and ordered 1 birria taco because I had never had one. I asked for the broth dip and she told me it was an additional charge and asked for another pico and it was an additional charge. The food was good enough though. I prefer the woodland location

We sat down with no menu and not even water for over 15 minutes. Several customers came in after us and immediately received menus, water, and chips and salsa, while our waitress completely ignored our table. After waiting more than 20 minutes without even being offered a menu, we had no choice but to leave. Terrible service..! extremely disappointing experience because we couldn’t even order the food😭

Really nice nice staff and their carne asada fries are to die for ! LOVE THE GUACAMOLE
Ordered the super nachos and blue moon beer to drink. I loved that the sauce was not too spicy. We will back when we are at Davis again.
I probably chose the busiest time to go on a Saturday afternoon during UCD Grad weekend but to my surprise service was so quick and it wasn’t busy! Parking and downtown was pretty crazy but I parked far and walked over. I ordered the surf n turf burrito and it was HUGE along with a Jamaica drink and in addition I got a Baja fish burrito grilled. My food came out quickly, the staff were super friendly and the food was delicious! It was a little salty for me so I wish I had lime to balance the taste but overall devoured it! It also came with chips and salsa. I haven’t been here since the renovation so it was nice to see a little bar area, full bar and tons of items on the menu! From breakfast, vegetarian, and $2.50 taco Tuesday & Thursday! I can’t wait to come back and try more things on the menu!
It’s been a while since I have been to El Patio, but the experience is just as good as I remember. When I first walked in, the restaurant looked very different than before. They had remodeled the restaurant since my last visit. Before the inside looked old and dark, but with the remodel, it is now bright and modern. The old chips and salsa station is now the bar area with a TV.
Their food was delicious as before. The service was also stepped up compared to before. When my son and I walked in, we were promptly greeted and told to pick our seat and they would bring the menus to us. The menus came and a minute later, chips and salsa (green and red) came out along with waters. We can in around 6pm, so there was a Happy Hour menu as well. They have a nice selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks to choose from.
Food: I chose the Quesabirria Taco Special which came with 3 tacos and my son got the Fajitas Quesadilla with Carne Asada. The tacos were good size and the consommé was delicious! The Fajita Quesadilla was gigantic and my son was not able to finish it and took about half of it home. The Quesadilla came with crema and guacamole which were both very good. Both the green and red salsas were very tasty, I like both, but my son liked the red one a lot. Neither salsas were spicy in my opinion, but had great flavor.
I have to give a shout out and big thanks to our waitresses Odalis and Ale as they provided excellent service. They constantly came to check on us, refilled our chips if needed, promptly cleared empty plates off the table and were very pleasant to talk to. I noticed they provided the same excellent service to all the customers in the restaurant. If you owned a restaurant, Odalis and Ale are the type of employees you would want working for you!
My family and I will be back again for delicious food! 5 Stars all around!
Probably the best burrito I've ever had! Got the California Burrito, the thing is HUGE! And the prices are fair! *IN THIS ECONOMY?!*
A quick bite for lunch. Loved the taco salad I ordered. The place was clean and our server was attentive. A nice spot with a lot of places to visit around the restaurant in Davis.

I just went there at 9:15 with my friend (she speaks spanish i don’t). We waited at the door for about 10 minutes waiting to be seated, the girl finally comes up to us and tells us that it will have to be to go because they’re closing at 10 even though on Google it says that they close at 11 and so we were fine with that and she looks at us and says “so what would you like” before we were even offered a menu, we ask to see a menu and she points with her eyes and said “yeah take a look” and so we decide what we want and my friend starts to order in spanish and she proceeds to speak English to her, my friend asked for the quesotaco plate and she looks up and corrects her in a very snarky way “you mean the auggie plate?” and my friend said yes that’s fine and i asked for an extra order of rice and beans, the rice looked disgusting, she didn’t give us any utensils or napkins and our orders were plain and no taste also the cheese on both orders was burnt. We then called the store, the first time no one answered, the second time a girl answered, my friend started speaking spanish and she hung up on us after that we were feeling very disrespected and so we called a third time and i asked if there was a manager on shift i could speak to and the girl hung up on me for the second time. I have never received such terrible customer service at any food establishment and i was very disappointed by the outcome for this being the first time going here.
It was funny to stop by and eat with my mom

First time ordering, DoorDash a 20 dollar burrito bowl, that I added extra rice ($1)and they barely gave me any rice. This small bowl for 20 dollars???? And i specially asked for extra rice, I even paid for it, and they didn’t give me any.
Decided to give a try again today, asked for a burrito bowl because I’m allergic to gluten. They gave me a burrito…….
I also orders chips and salsa, never received it….
WHERE IS THE RICE??? Did the cook ate it?
Never again.

Why would you renovate and then change everything that was good about the food?
I love the woodland location and though the Davis location wasn't quite as good, it was my go to.
After my last visit where they served and charged adult sizes to kids, brought the wrong orders, and worse served stale chips and the salsa is completely different.
Also the new bar, looks trendy, and is super basic.
All of this would be fine, but the food isn't good and now I need to pay full service tips if I eat in. No thanks.
So disappointed. I do not recommend the Davis El Patio.

The atmosphere is the best thing about this place. My server was snappy to my friend and I, and it made us so uncomfortable, we contemplated a tip! Will only come back if I don’t have a large budget and can do online pickup.
