It's good, but don't go out of your way. Good food and service. Salsa was fresh and they offered two mixing sauces to add to suit your tastes. Mains were tasty and portions were generous. Cons - avoid the booths. When someone sat down at the booth behind me, the shared seat back smacked me in the back of the head. And every time she moved it jostled me. If we are in the area again, we may stop. But we can get similar fare elsewhere.

So I read some of the bad reviews and I have no clue where these folks actually ate. I have been here before but just rediscovered and introduced friends to El Patron. The place is warm and friendly but not fancy. The service is also very friendly and very laid back. The star is the food. Everything is delicious, authentic and plentiful. The only tough part can be parking but try it, you will fall in love.

I tried to call and no answer why have a restaurant and a phone and you don’t answer …Well I guess I won’t be having food for lunch today but it’s okay I’ll wait till later when I get off at 6pm and cook at home

I was nearby for work and had a taste for Mexican food. Did a quick search and narrowed it down to this place and another and ultimately chose to eat here The place is small and I imagine parking can at time be a little tricky but I was able to find a spot right out front. The restaurant is small but clean. The staff was super friendly. I ordered the chicken fajitas. The meal came with chips and salsa. The chips weee good, the thicker kind. And the salsa was really good. It wasn't spicy at al which was fine for me, and it had a sweet taste to it. I really liked it. The fajitas came out with a generous amount of corn tortillas and rice and beans. Everything tasted so good. The fajitas were seasoned well as was the rice. The beans were more like a bean dip but had a good flavor as well. The meal was super affordable and was enough for me to have lunch the next day. I'd go back if I was ever in the area again.

It's been a few years since we've been back since moving away. Food was amazing, lost cost compared to everywhere else and authentic, reminds of home cooked meals. They do their own baking and the tres leches is amazing, everything was delicious. After the years we were extremely glad they are still top quality and beats the other places in the valley on quality and cost and better then the places down by Philly we used to frequent.

First time eating here and I was referred by a friend and the food is good. I ordered the steak chimichanga and the portion was satisfying and taste really good. I couldn't eat it all because I was stuffed lol. I hope too see this restaurant make it big!

Incredible Mexican food made by people that genuinely care! I’d argue that it’s definitely among the best in the valley for low key dinners. Definitely recommend the chimichanga
