La Patrona Del Gordo is a rustic, folkloric, very nice Mexican restaurant about 10-15 minutes driving distance to the north from the Hermosillo City, at the pure entrance of San Pedro village.
The seating area is located at a semi-open installment which serves also larger groups. The food is fantastic, northern style and authentic. My favorite of all the delicious plates is the chamorro, oven baked lamb shank which is so tender it just falls apart from the bone. It is juicy and decently spicy, and is my reference -- exactly here in this small village -- compared to any other I have tasted in the Americas continent.
The menu includes a good variety of local food and drinks. You can enjoy also the cazuela cocktail, a generous serving of fruit-based luquids and tequila mix.
There is live music performed on Saturday and Sunday afternoons around 2pm, making this place the spot to relax over an excellent quality food. read more
