While there aren't many options, in Burton, Los Patrones is hardly considered settling or a default choice. Prices are a little high, but the portions are HUGE! Plan on sharing or asking for a box. The queso and salsa are also quite good and easy to fill up on (so I hear :) ) The chili relleño with chicken, and the stuffed avocado are some of my favorite dishes here. Other neat info: The margaritas are strong, and there is soft serve ice cream, if you manage to have any room at the end of the meal. read more

This family owned spot is fantastic! It's the only place I've ever found a mushroom chili rellano- and their guacamole is always just perfect. read more

The food was absolutely AMAZING!!! Not only did we have one server, but the bartender also came to check on us. The atmosphere was very inviting. I wish we could've sat outside, but it was raining, unfortunately. I will definitely be back!!! read more

Food was mediocre. Service was good and the place was cute. The cheese enchiladas had white gravy in them which asked for sour cream sauce and no gravy. Salsa was good. Not a place that I would go back too. read more

Fresh salsas and homemade tortilla chips! Generous portions. Ground beef was just okay. Will return to order something else.

Does not comply with The Americans with Disabilities Act. Having handicap parking but no other ADA compliant accommodations is atrocious. Food and service is fine. Restaurant is loud. Terrible location if you need a walker, wheelchair, or crutches. read more

This is my go to Mexican cantina. Very fast and friendly service. Very very reasonable price. Warm chips and salsa always a hit. Love the ice cream at the end and they occasionally have chocolate. The drinks are spot on especially the margaritas. read more

We have driven twice in 2 weeks to this restaurant to have Sunday and both times there was a sign on the door saying - Sorry we are temporarily closed until Tuesday. So when is this place open? read more

Don't get the hype. First off the sweet tea was so sweet I couldn't drink it. I asked the waiter to bring us each a half a glass of unsweet tea to mix it with he only brought one so the next time he finally came by I just had him switch mine for a Coke, the queso on my puff was so runny it just made my taco and my Chalupa break apart before I could eat them. The whole plate was a soggy mess. Charro beans had so much other stuff in it could hardly find beans! Hot sauce was just that just hot not a lot of flavor. No military discount! Very expensive! Hubby said ribs were ok. Won't be back. read more

For a small town with only a few choices for eating out, Burton has an outstanding Mexican restaurant in Los Patrones. Honestly, we had pretty low expectations going there, but their chili rellenos and cheese enchiladas changed our minds. Great chips and salsa was a bonus. We noticed work groups and couples also having lunch there like they already knew what tasty food this place provides. Worth the drive. read more

We stopped in Burton on the way home from Austin. It was a delightful find! The outside is plain and an assuming. We actually drove past it. But once inside, it was full of charm. It's about a mile off the highway, but well worth the two minute drive! And the food was exceptional! We are picky about Tex Mex. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The margaritas on the rocks were freshly made and well done. We just found a new "must stop" on our way to Austin. And back! read more

On my now year old quest for a good Mexican restaurant I came across this establishment in the area so de I decided l would make a stop.. As always I must start off with the service. Excellent with the staff is very attentive and on the ball with all tables. I will say that when I walked in and as I observed customers entering I became concerned due the overwhelming demographics that I had found myself in one of those gringo Mexican restaurants that is not traditional Tex-Mex. Well let's see if that is the case. After reviewing the extensive menu I finally decided on the one dish I use to judge all Mexican restaurants, carne guisada which comes with refried beans, Spanish rice and guacamole. I also added a side of cheese enchiladas and of course maize tortillas. As the chips and salsa where placed on my table I immediately dove into red sauce which was very tasty with just a hint of heat. A good start. Now the plate arrives and it blatantly clear this is not your traditional hole-in-the-wall carne guisada I have come to love but some interpretation to match the local population...yes, gringo food which I feel I can say because I am one of those. Since it still looked acceptable even if not what I was hoping it to be so let's dig in by opening the foil that the tortillas came in. How deeply disappointing it was to discover it was those very thin tortillas that harden immediately upon being exposed to air. I call these tortilla frisbees. From here my expectations are low so I decided to take a bite of the guisada. Though it was clearly not the carne guisada of my favorite neighborhood Mexican restaurant with its cheap fatty meat and brown gravy from San Antonio it was tasty instead being a more upscale cut of beef. All the sides where pretty good including the generous portion of guacamole. Though this place was not what I was looking for in my quest for decent Tex-Amex requiring me to continue fir journey I did find the service and food tasty, minus the very disappointing maize tortillas, and though I do not see myself going out of my way often to come here I would consider bringing a date or stopping by on an occasional visit to the awesome antique store next door. read more

The best Mexican food in the area , better than anything in Brenham . Great value too , everything we have tried is excellent !

I ate there on Thursday 11/21/24 early evening. Within an hour of leaving I knew I was in trouble. I had food poisoning. I can't be the only one. There were two long tables full of ladies celebrating something. I hope they are ok. I however am still sick. It's a shame really because I have eaten here many times and always had a good experience. I have recommended this restaurant to many many people. Los Patrones you have to do better. read more

My whole group got food poisoning. Should've known after seeing the long list of repeat health code violations by the bathroom. DO NOT GO

The Burton location is the absolute best as far as food quality and ambience. Their lunch menu prices are VERY reasonable and the staff is very attentive. Giddings location was not as good on food quality or service. read more

I feel certain that I can call myself a repeat customer. I've been coming here once a week for the last few weeks and I am always impressed with the food and service. I've tried: El Mariachi, Shrimp quesadillas, chicken quesadillas and poblano chicken. All great. Pictured you can see poblano chicken and El Hacienda combo platter. We ordered to-go (Thanks a lot 'Rona) and enjoyed our food at home. Along with my food I enjoyed a strawberry margarita. I have tried most of the flavors at this point, including: mango, sangria, peach and strawberry. One is enough to get the party started... I've heard they have a secret recipe. I don't know what's in these margs, but they keep you coming back! The owners are likable and I want them to stay in business for years to come. Burton people are lucky to have this place. read more

So glad they opened a location here in Burton! Hard time to open, during social distancing and only being allowed to serve take out, but they have done it with great service, delicious food and tons of smiles and thanks for ordering. Loved the Round Top location before they lost their lease. Looking forward to dining in soon! Got the seafood soup, beef enchiladas al carbon and chicken verde enchiladas. Chips and Salsa amazing as always! read more

The service was great, very friendly staff. The burro was tasty, but the red salsa was the BEST I have ever had. Nothing unusual about it, just so perfectly balanced. I could drink that stuff! House made beer was excellent as well. Now, if only I could get that recipe for salsa... read more

Worst food I have ever eaten! Refried beans had a weird aftertaste, rice was awful, carne guisada was terrible. Staff was completely overwhelmed, took way too long for them to take our order. We will not be returning! read more

Fast and friendly with great food and service. The drinks are good also. They have a great catering service for pickup we have used them at holidays many times read more

We were on our way back from New Orleans and stopped in for a bite to eat. Holy cow what a great meal in a wonderful location by a cool train car hidden in Burton 5 star food 5 star service - will come back! The steak and Pasta rocked! read more

Great food and service. Excellent enchiladas, rice and beans! Not a bad bite on the plate!

Mannnn....caught me off guard. I always read the reviews so I kept going. We were meeting friends halfway in between Houston & Austin. We got the shorter end . This place was in the sticks to me, off the path. Trust me when I say " get off the path"The food was exceptional. If you're looking for fancy this is not your place, but if you're looking for good food, you've found it. I had the simple beef enchiladas, but I also sampled food from around the table. The sauces and all the little extras...Everything was good and that's hard to say nowadays. Staff was great also...This will now be the halfway spot for us to meet at. If you're close by treat yourself.....Life is Short...Get In...Get Out.......Enjoy.. read more

Great food! Consistently great food and service! We love coming here, driving over from La Grange. We appreciate everything about this restaurant. read more

Bland fajitas, watery green sauce and overall mediocre service.

Stopped here after a long day at Round Top and we were STARVING! The margaritas (on the rocks) were perfect! The chips and salsa were great. The venue itself sneaks up on you, we had to go around the block because we missed it. Everyone ordered something different (California burrito, a combo platter, flautas, ribeye) and everyone was happy. The combo platter had a tamale which was so yummy. The only complaint it, there was 3 woman seating people and one poor guy running his ass off serving everyone. But he was super attentive and we never felt ignored, we just felt bad for him. read more

Used to go to eat at Mexican food places in Brenham, but since they opened up, haven't stopped going there. The stuffed jalapeños they serve are outstanding. Service is great and fast. read more

I would give 0 stars if I could. Absolute worst food ever and it made me very ill. The waiter needs food handling education. He kept wiping sweat from his forehead with his bare hand, touched his mouth and beard numerous times. Just overall disgusting place. read more

These people 120% gave me reheated quesadillas. I'm certain they weren't even made today.

The service was fantastic! Everyone was friendly and helpful. The food came out hot, was presented well and tasted fresh. We will be back. Hopefully, when the weather warms and we can sit on their outside deck/patio. So pretty. Don't be fooled by the plain front. It's worth checking it out. read more

Surprisingly good Mexican food for a small town. Consistently good as well. Service is prompt and respectful. Recommend the turnoff if along 290. read more

We have been coming here for about a year. The food is great! Tasty salsa. We enjoy the beef fajitas. The skinny margaritas are refreshing & they have a great & beer selection. read more

So I haven't even been to the restaurant myself, but my parents always bring me back a ton of leftovers whenever they go. The LEFTOVERS are some of the best TexMex I've had in a while. Can only imagine it's even better fresh at the restaurant. read more

Restaurant has been closed for five or six weeks with no sign on the door and no recording. Phone rings and rings and then you're asked to put in your remote access code terrible PR. I was told by a local that they AC was out but that is no excuse for absolutely no communication for the public. Have no idea but it looks like it's closed for good. Too bad the food was fantastic and we went there at least twice a month read more

The margaritas are good but the fajitas came with a (small) piece of plastic embedded

Food is very good. Margaritas are great.I took a gallon of margaritas to go that was very good and very safe.
