The last time we visited our aunt last year, she took us to this restaurant and we had a great time, especially with their margarita tower! We all remembered it so we decided to go back while visiting her again. Of course, we ordered the same margarita tower (which holds 80 oz of margarita). While we were enjoying it, a lady from another table came up to us, pointed at the tower and asked, "WHAT IS THIS!?" We explained what it was and she seemed fascinated by it. Maybe she'll order one the next time she visits. LOL. Unfortunately, I wasn't feeling well that day so I couldn't drink much. That just meant more for my husband and our aunt and they certainly didn't complain. All the food we ordered was delicious and we had a wonderful time catching up. There were lots of laughs and great conversation which made the experience even better. read more

Thoroughly disappointed. The beef in the beef fajitas was cut so small that I have honestly had McDonald's French fries that were larger. The "premium" margarita was the exact same house premixed margarita mix with a splash of slightly better tequila added to it. Nothing about it felt premium. Service was disappointing as well. Our waiter barely checked on the food and never really checked to see if we needed refills. Then came the churros. We ordered churros to go. The picture showed churros on a plate with chocolate on the side. What we received was completely covered in chocolate, canned whipped cream, and some kind of strawberry or cherry syrup. Honestly, I have no idea what it was because the red color looked completely unnatural. I asked the waiter for plain churros instead--not the overly Americanized, bastardized version we had just received. Apparently, "plain" meant SERIOUSLY plain. No sugar. No cinnamon. Nothing. At that point, we were done and headed up to pay, only to find out that paying with a card adds almost another $4 as an "admin fee." I sincerely hope that fee is being split with the staff, because believe me, no additional tip was left after this experience. This is not a place I will ever return to. read more

Excellent food, friendly fast and courteous service, and very reasonable prices. This is a favorite spot and I can't recommend it enough. The ownership is always ready to help in any way. The menu is extensive and takes some time to get through, but you are assured of finding something to your liking. Gluten friendly, though no GF menu. But easy enough to assess. We are never disappointed. read more

Don Patron Mexico Restaurant - Pina loco (filled half pineapple)! - Mexican Near Me - Latrobe, Pennsylvania

Fast service, good food, what else do I say but go to this resteraunt. It's menu has a wide variety of food, and great drinks.

Came in today and it was totally packed and I understand it can take a while when it's busy, but we sat there without menus or water for over 35 minutes. Once we got our menus we had to wait another 30 minutes to get water and begin to order. When I started to order, the server walked away from us and did not return. We waited for him to come back, but he didn't, so we left. Only a party of 2. read more

We had a two hour break from an emotionally draining family gathering. It was only 4:00 but we needed to be back by 6 and would miss dinner. We searched Yelp for a nearby restaurant but everything close by wasn't open for dinner yet. We expanded our search a little and found Don Patron. I'm so glad we did. Our large group was seated immediately and served the required chips and salsa (they were unremarkable). It took us a little while to order but once we did, our food was served in a reasonable amount of time. The hubs and I decided to split the carnitas dinner and a side of guac. It's a good thing we split - we couldn't finish the meal. The carnitas were cooked perfectly. The beans and rice were typical of any local Mexican restaurant. The guacamole was simple - avocado, seasoning and I think cilantro and it was delicious. Although we were all stressed, we didn't partake from the large drink menu. Our server was very attentive and quick with drink refills. The prices were pretty reasonable. Since Don Patron is in a strip mall, parking is abundant. I've been visiting Latrobe all of my life and have never found this gem of a restaurant. This, however, was probably my last trip to the area, I have no one left to visit. I'm sorry I didn't find Don Patron sooner. (Rest in peace Bub) read more

My daughter and I were in town for the weekend and saw this place was within walking distance. We both love Mexican and had a hankerin' for a margarita too, so we made a midday run for the border. It wasn't crowded since it was between lunch and dinner, so the service was fine and I had a Chile relleno, bean taco, and beans to go with my big ol' jug o' margarita. The salsa was flavorful and the chips were on point, too. The only downside was a septic smell coming from the bathrooms that hit when you walk in the door or use the restroom. Not sure what's up with that or if that's a one off thing...? If I lived local I'd def come back. And hope the septic odor had departed in a timely fashion. read more

Firstly, it's hard to find good Mexican in this part of the country, but everyone loved their meal at Don Patron. Collectively we had enchiladas, burritos, Rancho fries, and rice. The rice was okay. Salsa was very good. Enchilada sauce was good. Chicken was well seasoned. Nothing was over-spicy. The decor was great. We loved the suns especially the Chihully style, glass one. (No toreadors on black velvet here!) Service was excellent. read more

Me and my aunt went to Don Patrons for lunch and we absolutely loved it. The salsa they give you is absolutely delicious. Not too spicy, just the right amount of heat. I decided to order their Huevos Rancheros from their lunch section of the menu. I haven't had Huevos Rancheros before and I am not kidding, when I say, that it was so unbelievably delicious! The eggs were cooked perfectly, the yolks were nice and runny when you broke into them, the beans and rice had a great taste, and you could tell their soft tortillas are homemade and warm. I also really liked that their service was extremely fast and friendly. I would most definitely recommend don patrons to anyone I meet. read more

Don Patron Mexico Restaurant - Huevos Rancheros from Don Patrons! - Mexican Near Me - Latrobe, Pennsylvania

Very good place with very good food and drinks? Also good drinks I recommend this restaurant for anyone!

Stopped here for lunch after working out next door at the planet fitness, very convenient location. Lunch portions were very reasonable and the perfect size . Got roped into a margarita which was excellent, fresh pineapple and orange and a decent amount of tequila (enough to taste). Had the chicken fajita lunch portion which was enough for 2 FILLED tortillas , would have made a third of it was served with another one. Latrobe is blessed to have such a good Mexican restaurant! read more

Don Patron Mexico Restaurant - House lime margarita no salt - Mexican Near Me - Latrobe, Pennsylvania

This is a restaurant that the entire family can agree on to eat at, even picky kiddos. There is something for everyone. The chips and salsa are on point. We love to get the queso fundito. The chorizo in the cheese is so yummy! My kids love the chicken tenders, cheese quesadilla, fries, and of course the fried ice cream is always a hit. If you want a good margarita this is the place to get one! The service is always excellent and our food always comes out fast and nice and hot. read more

Being a Colorado girl, I have a horrible time finding any Mexican or even Tex-Mex food that is decent out east and it breaks my cold heart. From the second I meandered into Don Patrons after a rigorous workout next door (fair I get a reward), I have been hooked! Prices are crazy amazing, chips and salsa that are delivered complimentary are perfect and the menu has something for everyone! I do wish they had a few more spicy options, but no reason to take away a star. The service is always perfect and a lot of fun to practice my Spanish with mi amor Pedro! Someone else mentioned a language barrier, but I haven't noticed as they are all quick to speak English and do very well. I'll miss this place when I leave! read more

Wow! Outstanding authentic Mexican food expertly prepared with fresh ingredients. I ordered Carne Asada and was I pleasantly surprised by the size, taste, and price. The staff is friendly and attentive too. I found this jewel by accident. Try it. You'll be glad you did! read more

Probably should be 5 stars. Maybe after the next visit. So I moved to the area from S FL. You'd think there would be LOADS of great Mexican restaurants in FL. There really isn't. 5 years of living in S FL and Don Patron here in Latrobe is simply better. Good food that tastes fresh with actually a nice staff that wants your experience to be great. Every city in the US has that "fast casual Mexican restaurant where everything pretty much tastes the same." This isn't it - this is better. I've only been here twice, but this will become a regular for me. Hard to find. Worth the effort. read more

Favorite go-to restaurant. Foods always good. Employees are so nice. I'll always come back.

I ordered the tacos al pastor; it came with rice and beans. The rice and beans were good, but the taco meat tasted like salt. That's it just tasted like salt. I do not recommend unless you don't mind extremely salty meat. I read more

This restaurant seated all nine of us. We were starved and our food came out promptly, hot and delicious.

We absolutely loved everything! I never eat salsa, but I think I ate 2 bowls! My husband had a strawberry margarita and it was to die for! The Ceveche is absolutely perfect. Everything was so fresh. Real cilantro like they just cut it off the plant! Absolutely fantastic. And ask for Pedro, he is the best! He reminds me of a driver I have at my company, so that gave him extra points, but he is wonderful! Do not pass this gem tucked away in the plaza, it's incredible! read more

The food was delicious! The staff was very helpful and wore masks! Loved this place and will definitely be back if I'm ever back in town!

Have visited many times. Excellent Mexican food, good drinks, and very quick and friendly service.

Western PA is not known for its Mexican cuisine, but this place sure is a step in the right direction to changing all that. First and foremost, the food is all great. I had their combination plate of one enchilda, one burrito, and one chili relleno. The chili relleno was by far the best I have had. My wife enjoyed their beef and cheese enchilada plate, where her friend finished off the quesadilla offering they have. Service was mostly good and friendly, but I was a disappointed the waiter didn't keep up with our drinks. It took away from the overall experience. In the end it was all good and I'll be happy to return the next time we visit. read more

We've been coming here since they first opened up. Consistently fantastic on the food and service. Always a weird smell when you walk in don't know why... first time I had their enchilada sauce today something was a little off. All in all a solid establishment read more

Decent food large portions. Cooked the steak perfectly (temperature wise) but needed a little salt. Overall good meal and value.

We go here all the time. The food is always good and the margaritas are even better. The service is good and very fast! I love the fajitas, cheese dip, pollo Adobe, and seafood burrito. Ohhhh and the salsa is also fresh and awesome every day made fresh ! read more

Good food great service we go back again and again and again friendly from the moment you walk through the door

This is an updated review. It has been a year since I have eaten at Don Patron Mexican Grill. Our first visit didn't make a very good impression as the service was very erratic and my food wasn't what I had ordered. After finishing some appointments, husband and I thought we would give it another try here for lunch. The restaurant is in the same shopping center but moved into another space, formerly occupied by Chef Mark's Palate. This new location is a big improvement and makes a good impression upon entering. We were greeted and seated in the dining area. This time our server was very attentive, got our orders correct and anticipated our needs ahead of time. The salsa and chips were great. I had chicken enchiladas with the rice and salad. Husband got a seafood burrito accompanied with the rice and salad, also. Everything was delicious and very filling. There were a fair amount of other customers present and they seemed satisfied, too. I look forward to coming here more frequently. read more

The vibes are amazing, service is really fast and friendly. But last time I went, the meat just tasted really peppery and was not good.

Come in and say Hola to Pedro and the crew, my wife and I love this authentic restaurant. Our favorite is the Churro polo, sorry if the name of the dish is off but close enough to help you find a wonderful blend of cheese sauce and spicy chorizo chicken. Every chicken dish we've had is incredible. The cook knows chicken read more

Food is delicious, margaritas are amazing, the staff are friendly, and service was fast! Definitely recommend

A very poor experience this time. I went on Dec 22, with family visiting from out of town. The food was extremely lackluster, the service rushed but the biggest issue? Try to pay/leave. The credit card machines weren't processing at all. Their only 'option/suggestion' (to everyone in line to pay) was to go find an ATM, pay to get cash out, go back and pay them said cash. And for doing all that....they didn't even have the decency to apologize. Offer anything. Take a couple bucks off the bill. ANYTHING. (BTW our bill was nearly $150) But no. So, the food has really gone downhill, service was lackluster but their lack of attention and service for the customer is just disrespectful. I won't be back again and it's too bad, it used to be a decent place. I understand things break, tech can suck at the worst times but the fact they literally didn't care or try do anything at all is just beyond common decency. read more

Top 5 in Latrobe for sure. Great prices, amazing service, and delicious food. Plus they have happy hour and daily specials

Just your average Mexican restaurant. I went here when it first opened and they didn't have their liquor license so the margaritas were free. It was awesome. read more
