“Manager was alone running both drive and front. He rocked it. A bit of stress but accuracy on point. I've seen half a dozen employees screw things up. Not this guy and his cook. The cook i might say who knows the correct portions. Seems everywhere has been shorting. Not here thry were accurate all around“

The medium salsa is good. The spicy salsa is not very spicy.
Bathroom is very clean. Eat in is very casual.“

“So, I don't leave reviews often. I've been to a thousand or more restaurants, and only left 5-10 reviews. This Mexican joint is great; the taste, the offerings, the cost, the atmosphere. I've been to a couple dozens taco spots over the last ten years here in LA and surrounding areas, this is in the top 3 places! Give this place a try, it's worth it.“

“Wow this may be my new favorite Mexican restaurant. I grew up in Texas & honestly haven’t found as good of Mexican since (quality & price). I honestly came here for the reviews. This place is DELICIOUS!! I got tacos & enchiladas. If you are thinking about it just go. Far exceeded mine, my Mom & brother’s expectations. 10 outta 10!“

“I've lived in the SCV since 1987, and while there's no shortage of Mexican restaurants here, Lorena D's stands out! Whether it's the tacos, tamales, taquitos, burritos, or tostadas (and yes, we've had them all), everything is consistently fresh and delicious. Their carnitas is the best in the SCV: so tender and flavorful. The staff, led by the lovely Lorena, is always so welcoming, friendly and efficient. We love supporting this exceptional woman-owned business, truly serving the best Mexican food in the region.“

“Happy Hour is a great time to experience this place! Delicious items on the Happy Hour menu, of course you can order from regular menu as well. Mix and match! We love the Ceviche and Carnitas tacos. Shot of Tequila and a Modelo hit the spot. Friendly people and atmosphere.“

“Best street corn, hands down! Don’t hate on the fact that this place is in the same building as a Circle K! So delish and worth a try!!!“

“Excellent food, fast and friendly“

“I love this. It is a guilty pleasure. We used to come here since I was a kid. I can’t believe it’s still in the same location. In fact, I used to live at Bruno Campos home over on Ardenwood! I used to rent out the beautiful apartment that he has custom built over his garage but anyway this place is delicious. I love the smothered enchiladas as I said it is a guilty pleasure. You must try it at least once.“

“Enjoyed chili Colorado rice and beans with their delicious lemonade. Was craving this for some reason. Sauce is delicious, meat is good, it could use a little less fat on it otherwise I always come back. The server was very nice, I liked that.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

From the moment you step into Patron's Mexican Bar & Grill on Newhall Ranch Road, you know you're in for something special. This vibrant establishment has quickly become my go-to spot for authentic Mexican cuisine in the Santa Clarita Valley.

The Atmosphere
Walking in, I was immediately struck by the warm, inviting ambiance. The restaurant features colorful decor that pays homage to Mexican heritage without feeling kitschy or overdone. Whether you're seated at the lively bar or in the comfortable dining area, the atmosphere is perfect for everything from casual family dinners to celebratory nights out.

Exceptional Food
The food at Patron's is nothing short of spectacular. Their commitment to using fresh ingredients is evident in every bite. I started with their house-made guacamole, which was perfectly balanced with just the right amount of lime and cilantro. For my main course, I couldn't resist trying their signature dish - the sizzling fajitas with a combination of perfectly grilled steak and chicken. The meat was tender and flavorful, accompanied by colorful bell peppers and onions that retained their crunch.

My dining companions were equally impressed with their choices - the chile rellenos were stuffed with the perfect amount of cheese and the enchiladas verde were smothered in a tangy, complex sauce that had us all asking for extra tortillas to soak it up.

Drinks Worth Celebrating
The bar program at Patron's deserves special mention. Their margaritas are crafted with fresh-squeezed lime juice and high-quality tequila, striking the perfect balance between sweet and tart. The extensive tequila selection is impressive, and the bartenders are knowledgeable and happy to make recommendations based on your preferences.

Service That Shines
Perhaps what sets Patron's apart most is their exceptional service. From the moment we were greeted at the door to our final goodbye, the staff made us feel like valued guests rather than just customers. Our server was attentive without hovering, knowledgeable about the menu, and happy to accommodate special requests. The food arrived promptly and hot, and our drinks were never empty.

Value Worth Every Penny
While not the cheapest option in town, the quality of the food, generous portions, and overall experience make Patron's an excellent value. They also offer some great happy hour specials that make it an even better deal.

Final Thoughts
In a sea of Mexican restaurants, Patron's Mexican Bar & Grill stands out for its commitment to quality, authenticity, and exceptional service. It's clear they take pride in providing a memorable dining experience. Whether you're a local or just passing through Valencia, make sure to put this gem on your must-visit list. I'm already planning my next visit to try more of their extensive menu!“

“With taco trucks being all the rage this is one that you need to visit. The Birria Tacos here are bar none the best that I've had. Don't get me started with their other offerings of burritos, here. They are big full of flavor and well worth the price. The quesadillas are my next favorite, but believe me everything here is good.

Parking: The only thing about the parking here is that there's just a few spots around the truck that are available so it's going to be a walk if you have to park right on the street. If not, the business that is right in front has a big lot where you could just sit there and eat your food after you get it just make sure it's on the weekend. I'm pretty sure they're not too happy if you're parking there during the week.“

“Our new favorite little whole in the wall place for authentic Mexican food! Their chili rellano is amazing also, their breakfasts are really good. Their combo plates are so good! Prices are reasonable and we eat there now about once a week. The owner is so nice and he always has a joke or two.“

“At Villanueva Mexican Restaurant, embark on a salsa odyssey that elevates the ordinary to extraordinary! Their legendary salsa bar, a carnival of flavors, turns each bite into a fiesta. The shrimp fajitas, while promising a flavor explosion, waded through a sea of gravy, a twist in our culinary tale. Though this unexpected plot thickens our journey, the salsas alone make Villanueva a treasure worth exploring. It's a solid four-star adventure, where every dip transports you closer to Mexico. Dive into Villanueva for a taste escapade that’s almost perfect – just watch out for the gravy waves!Recommendations:Their salsa bar!

Vegetarian options: Few vegetarian items“

“With so many Mexican food restaurants across the valley and on every other street corner, I would put this in my top 10. Good place to bring friends as they also offer non traditional eats as well. Pizza or a Cuban sandwich. yes and they are good too.“

“exelente servicio, muy rika la comida“

“Went to La Charrita and was pleasantly surprised at the vast options of vegan food- they have a whole vegan menu! I ordered the vegan birria and my husband ordered the vegan torta- they were both delicious and service was wonderful. Definitely will be returning!“

“Great food. Great environment“

“buena atención, rica comida, cien por cierto recomendable“

“OMG my husband Ron and I just had burritos from Bros. Tacos and it was amazing. Ron had a California burrito and I had thier shrimp burritos. The flavors are amazing everything is fresh and tastes great. We also got horchata which was the best I've had in a long time. We definitely recommend this place and they were born out of the Pandemic so show them some love. You won't be disappointed.“

“Awasome!! Tried Brandon’s recommendations !!! Great friendly place ! Go“

“On my down time from fighting the Route Fire me and the crew came out to eat to El Pariente. The food and service here is fantastic! El Pariente is family owned and the hospitality is authentic. This business supports Firefighters and I appreciate Rebecca and Miguels support. My dearest appreciation am gratitude ?“

“I had tacos to try various meats. Carnitas, pastor, lengua and buche. They were all very good. But I can't wait to try their carnitas burrito. Everyone one was friendly and welcoming. (Danny, Francisco and Desiree). I also went back to get asada quesadillas for my wife and son. And a carnitas taco and a side of rice. My wife and son loved them!“

“Food is legit! Delicious and a great lunch while waiting for the car to be washed 😁“

“Really good grilled chicken, decent portion sizes too. The tortillas are homemade, and it shows, they are delicious. The price is really good considering how much food they give you. I ordered over the phone for pickup, and it was ready right as I got there. Friendly staff as well. I'll definitely be coming back in the future.“

“Awesome place great atmosphere and great service.“

“La comida esta deliciosa. El menudo bien recommendado“

“todo esta delicioso y y tienen un buen servicio 👌“

“This is a nice Mexican food spot, I really enjoyed the tacos that I ordered and my wife liked her taco and quesadilla plate. There is a nice selection at the salsa bar and the staff was extremely nice and helpful. I'll definitely be back.

Parking: It is in a large lot that has tons of parking, but it can become crowded around lunch time.“

“I work here, and the food is bomb and we take pride on having good customer service.. 😎👍🐓🐔🍗“

“This is a wonderful, family run establishment. We come up from Culver City just so my wife can have treats at this bakery (usually after a hike). The people who run it are super friendly and their artwork in spiritually inspiring-just beautiful all around.“

“One of the best places to eat Mexican food and best of all.. tortillas are hand made 👌👌“

“Best margaritas in town! Love the atmosphere.“

“I got the ceviche tostadas to go. They give you 2 in the order. It was A very good portion of some of the best I've ever had. They kept the shells separate as to keep them from getting soggy which was great cause I've ordered elsewhere and that wasn't the case. The shrimp was cool which is good for shrimp and they even give you lime and some chopped mango on the side...I will definitely be going back if I stay longer in Santa Clorita. As far as the restaurant...The place was small and some high school kids were hanging out there. It wasn't packed but it's a small place. There weren't a lot of people but only because there are restaurants everywhere it seems. How do you choose? I chose this place cause it had good ratings and said it was authentic Mexican and that the fish was fresh at a good price. And it was and the girl who took my order and made my food was very nice... she just seemed really busy.

Parking: I drove up to almost the front door no problems it was in a parking lot with other stuff all around“

“Ordered Albondigas and hard shell tacos. Our favorite out of the 3 meats offered was the pastor. Carnitas was second. Carne Asada was good too but not our fave. Albondigas was great as well. Salsas were great too! Will be coming back! Thank you!“

“their burritos and drinks are the perfect meal for me“

“I'd highly recommend this Simi Valley staple! If you love Mexican Food, you will LOVE El Patio! If you have never been....What rock have you been living under? WTHeck....Get up and Go already!! 😁😉😊“

“Food and service fresh and fabulous and dog friendly 🐾🥳🐾“
