This restaurant is very welcoming not to mention overall delicious. The customer service is extremely friendly with bilingual staff for English speakers, dine in with a tv and a beautiful cultural environment. The food is always speedily prepared and top notch Mexican cuisine. I love this place, I love the workers and how friendly they are, I love the food. 10/10Kid-friendliness: High chairs provided and they are so sweet to my daughter she smiles every time she sees the owner :)

The best Mexican food I’ve had. The burrito is phenomenal! Run, do not walk and get some food here!Ok, the atmosphere is old school Mexican, but the food way outweighs the atmosphere.

I love this place. I like their roasted chicken with yellow rice and beans, taco bowl, burger and fries, fried plantain, yucca, and so much more. People are very friendly and kind. Try it. You'll love them as well.

Been here a few times. Family own business and every one was great. I’ve ordered burritos, quesadillas Mexican and American style, tacos Al pastor, and finally rice and beans. All the food has been fresh and delicious.

Just moved to the are and ordered out here yesterday for the first time.Food was amazing! I ordered vegan tacos for my husband and pork chop platter for myself. Rice & Beans. Side of tostones and passionfruit juice. Was soooo good. And the little green sauce they give with your meal is such a great kick to the food!Customer service was amazing, the gentleman helped me and greeted me once I entered through the door. Being in service myself…That’s a big plus for me. He helped me decide what to get by answering all my questions graciously! He also knew what Vegan meant (lol) And packed the bags neatly and orderly, no leaks or spills. He had great energy!I will definitely be coming back! Maybe to dine in…it’s a cute authentic Mexican vibe going on. Next time I will remember to take pics of my food when I get home….I remembered halfway devoured. Lol so next time. But yes definitely recommend and it seems family owned and I love to support my local neighbors!

I’m going to start off by saying that the customer service was phenomenal! You definitely feel welcomed and appreciated as a customer. We ordered seafood soup, a meal from the steam table, three tamales and an agua de Jamaica and it was all less than $30. The food was great and they serve great portions. We will definitely be returning to this place. Definitely will recommend to family and friends.Parking: Street parking

Best Mexican food in town. Owners always so nice people and make you feel welcome every time. I recently ordered the tostadas…. flavorful and generous portions.

It is about the food here. The mom and pops shops are the best. I come here for the soup, but this last time I ordered a bit of everything. The roast chicken was not dry had great blend of flavor. The beef stew, fell off fork great Latino flavor. I will be back more. The chick stew was not my favorite but others in the restaurant enjoyed it.

I’ve ordered many items from El Patron and every meal has been delicious! You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. It’s all amazing, fresh and homemade right at the restaurant. The owners and staff are so kind and welcoming. I would recommend anyone to come here and try the food. I will definitely be coming back again!
