OK. There is a weird smell, not rotten food, but like maybe like the smell of a musty odor, or something when you walk in.

El Patron Restaurant & Lounge offers a mix of experiences. The food is generally delicious, with highlights like the skirt steak with shrimp and the passion fruit sangria. It is the best speakeasy in New York City, consistently outstanding. The tacos are authentic and delicious with amazing sauces, and the quesadillas are humongous. The henny horchata and margaritas are great, plus the prices are unbeatable. The interior is very welcoming. Overall, it provides a good dining atmosphere with room for improvement.
