What a great experience we had a El Patron Grill! Honestly, this wasn't our first pick but due to…read morethe situation I'm glad we ended up here. We came for a weekday lunch on a rainy day. When we arrived we were sat immediately and were probably the 5th table in the good sized restaurant. Our waiter arrived and took our drink orders quickly. It took a few more minutes before he came back to take our food order. While the menu is pretty large it is not huge. That's good IMO because they understand what each dish takes better. My Michelada was excellent! I don't mean because of the showy shrimp and cucumber with Chamoy and Tajin. I mean it was one of the best ones I've ever tasted and I've had a lot. Our food came out and was really good. I got Chipotle Chicken which came on a sizzling platter with a chipotle cheese sauce, onions and peppers, and rice on the side with tortillas. Lip smacking'! I asked for some home made hot sauce as well. It was pretty good but due to the amount of tomatillos in it I found it a tad bit too tangy. The others in my party were apparently happy with their meals because all of their food was gone. If driving through Elizabethtown or vacationing at White Lake and have a taste for Mexican, stop by El Patron and leave full and happy.

Right off the interstate and by a gas station. Perfect for a quick stop from traveling. 3- the salsa tastes fresh. Very yummy. Now, onto the negatives which pulled me down into 3 stars. 1- the food is pretty bland. 2- tortillas are pretty rubbery. 3- white cheese dip is consistency of water. 4- the little amount of chicken you get in the fajitas is laughable. Listen, maybe this is the best food in town. I don't know, we were passing through on travel. But I must say, we wouldn't stop again, except to get some chips and salsa, a beer and say hi to our nice server. But to fill up on a delicious meal.... Ehhh... we'd be just about as lucky as stopping at the gas station next door and trying out their fried food and a bag of chips. Maybe you'll get luckier than us. God speed.

Unfortunately, I have to say it was the worse Mexican food I've ever eaten. My husband and our friend ordered #18 from the menu and I ordered the Burrito Supreme.

Our drinks were delivered quickly but it did take a long time for our orders to arrive. I got chicken and beef fajitas with beans and rice and salad ( lettuce , a little cheese and tomato ). My grandson got a chicken taco with beans and rice and a empanada. My daughter got a chicken sandwich with fries. Mine was just warm, not hot. The beans were different than most places but they were ok. My grandson did not eat more than two bites of the taco. I have never seen him do that before. He just didn't like it, even after we put salsa on it to try and improve it. Luckily my daughter had a big serving of fries and my grandson are most of them. They were the best thing we had. We had fried ice cream for dessert and that was just ok as well. Our first waiter was great, checked on us several times but then disappeared. The second girl was just like opposite. We had to ask to order the ice cream.... And we waited a long time before asking. The place is decorated beautifully and the booth was comfortable. There is a large parking lot for parking.
