    I work in Plant City and decided to try this place with my husband. The food was good and the…read moreservice was mediocre, but what happened at the end completely ruined the entire experience. My husband asked for some cilantro. Our server brought out a small container of it (see picture) and never said a word about there being a charge. When the bill came, we noticed we were charged $0.99 for it. Let me be clear: I do NOT care about the $0.99. What I care about is basic honesty and transparency. If you're going to charge customers for something, tell them ahead of time. When Lupe (who was not even our server) came to grab our credit card, I politely asked about it. Instead of simply acknowledging that it should have been mentioned, she immediately became argumentative and said there's a charge for everything. That completely missed the point. I repeated that my issue is not the charge -- it's the fact that nobody told us beforehand. She continued arguing with me, insisting that it didn't come with my original plate so there's a charge. AGAIN, that is not the point. The point is no one told us there would be a charge until the bill showed up. What should have been a simple "I'm sorry, we should have mentioned that" turned into an unnecessary argument with a rude employee who clearly didn't care about the customer experience. It's not about $0.99. It's about terrible communication and even worse customer service. That interaction completely ruined the meal for us. Horrible way to treat customers. We will NOT be coming back and I definitely do NOT recommend this place.

    My husband visited this restaurant in pre-Covid times, and based on our recent experience it was…read moremuch better back then. Perhaps we just ordered the wrong things. I got the Camarones Con Rajas Y Crema and my husband ordered the Carnitas Dinner. His pork was not shredded, rather it was chunks of not great meat. Definitely not what he expected and certainly a letdown. My dish was decent, yet the sauce wasn't really noticeable. I did appreciate all the additional little shrimp hidden like treasure throughout my rice. The shrimp on their own, however, weren't all that flavorful. On a positive note, I was thrilled that our server automatically brought 2 separate salsa bowls for our chips. Sometimes I'm not very good at sharing. Service could have been a bit warmer, though. A smile here and there goes a long way. The interior is festive with vibrant colors and artwork. The women's bathroom is spacious and charming. We got lucky and were able to park right out front on a rainy night. Being located in a strip mall, the lot was pretty full. Wasn't impressed with the food, so unlikely to return.

    This is NOT the restaurant El Patron anymore!!! The new name is 200 Copas Bar and Grill. Let me…read morestart with this is NOT a bar and grill!! This is a nightclub that happens to serve food. We did not know that walking in. They all looked at us like what are you doing here? My husband even said is this a restaurant? So we asked for a menu - which is a QR code. Yes- they have food. We decided to sit at the bar and at least have a drink. It was early so no a lot of people. Everyone seemed confused as to how things worked. Most employees spoke Spanish and we do not. A bartender did speak English. He asked what we wanted and took our drink order. He was nice. We did end up getting food. Chips and salsa=$10! Other items were priced fairly. We asked for water and he claimed they only had bottles of still water=$4.50. But we saw someone else get a glass with ice/water at another table. Also be warned there is a "service fee" of 15% (for what I have no idea) and if you use a credit card 3% card fee. We searched on line to see what people said about this place and some other reviews on Google said they charge $10 to get in although we were not charged anything to come in. In the end the food was pretty good. Bottom line- this is a nightclub with an identity problem as they are trying to serve food as well and it just does not have a restaurant or bar&grill feel to it. We won't be back as not our scene, but also wish them well with the clients they really are trying to attract.

    Have you ever accidentally shown up at the wrong time (too early) for a party? That's what it felt…read morelike, when we stopped by for lunch on a Friday. It was open for business, but there was only one other group of two in there with us-and only one server-who was also the bartender. It was a little odd. I'm sure this place is popping at night. Our server (who was chatty at the end-businesslike before) told us there's karaoke on Friday nights and a DJ on Saturdays. I'll definitely bring the friends back for that. The drink menu is large-it would be a fun night spot. I'm just not sure I'd come back for a weekday lunch. That's not the food's fault, though. I had chicken enchiladas verde (very nice) with some of the best Mexican rice I've ever had. The margarita was also good. You can tell this restaurant has been around awhile-there are echoes of genres past, with different decor still lingering (the lighting, for example). But I love the murals outside, the bar surrounds, the signage by the stage area and the other Mexican touches. I also really like the vintage windows-it's a nice nod to the past. And it's spotless in here-so clean-with lots of tables. I also thought the prices were fair. I hope they thrive!
