“It’s been a few years since I’ve had the opportunity to dine here, but my family I reserved a large table for a birthday celebration there this evening. The wait staff was excellent and the menu provided a very wide selection of food choices. Our food was all cooked to perfection and they got our orders done relatively quickly. We loved the look of the restaurant and variety of chip dips was a nice bonus. We will definitely be coming back here again soon!”

“This restaurant is the best Mexican food I have eaten in eastern NC. I moved and still have yet to find a place with as good of food and as friendly of servers as La Patrona. The margaritas are always deliciously strong and the food is decently priced for the portions you get. We were there every week when we lived there. The food always came really quick no matter how busy they were. I miss it so much!”

“The food, service, and price are great and they have a different menu compared to the other restaurants in the area if you're looking to mix it up. We should probably broaden our horizons and try other things on the menu, but we are stuck on the papusas and stuffed jalapeñosfor now.”

“It's always fast and it's ALWAYS delicious. Every sandwich I've tried and every item I've seen ordered is fantastic but you can customize them however you like. The combos are typically $10-11, not bad at all these days. The yesterdaze is unbeatable! Plenty of drink options as well.”

“This restaurant delivers a genuinely authentic Incan dining experience, with dishes that reflect traditional flavors and careful preparation rather than watered-down interpretations. The ingredients taste fresh and well-sourced, and the menu shows a clear respect for cultural roots, from seasoning choices to cooking techniques. Service is attentive without being intrusive, and the overall atmosphere supports the food rather than distracting from it. It’s the kind of place where you can tell there’s real intention behind what’s being served, making it an easy five-star recommendation for anyone looking for something both high-quality and culturally true.”

“Last two dine in experience on Double Delight was one of the best I've eaten in Eastern NC. Billy was the cook he is a valuable asset to this restaurant. We ordered two hamburgers cooked medium French fries no seasoning salt.These hamburgers came out very quick cooked perfectly medium the bun was toasted perfectly. The French fries was the hottest and fresh without being parcooked .They were crispy and soft on the inside like a bake potato and super hot.The hamburger juice was clear and not raw juice.I don't tip at the point of sale but wait till I get my food .I was so impressed that I tipped all four employees 20% of the bill.Order taker,prep cook,window cashier and Billy the grill cook.Ill go back anytime for a excellent meal.Billy needs to be a trainer of their grill cooks.”

“No frills, just great food at a reasonable price. We had pork fried rice, orange chicken, the triple delight, vegetable lo mein, and egg rolls. Everything was delicious.”
