Food delicious, tacos is real deal, I had ordered many different dishes and they all tasted good. Absolutely love French fries, looks like they making them and they so good, always buy for my son. I will definitely recommend El Patron for those who love real Mexican cuisine.

This place is amazing! Authentic Mexican food! Portions are huge and the ingredients are fresh! The staff is so friendly too! Check out this hidden gem in Croydon! You won’t be disappointed!

The food from this establishment is amazing, and by far the best in all of Croydon. There are plenty of options for everyone: vegetarian options, variety of cuisines, beverages, allergen safe options or the ability to be allergen safe. The only downside about this location is that it can be fairly pricy, but not the worse - if I order a burrito and fries, I'm paying about $20 after food & tip. It's not a regular establishment for me, but if I'm getting a craving...
