Both dining areas are nicely decorated with good lighting (just enough/not too much). It is a wonderful family environment (yes, even the bar) We were quickly seated and given a choice of a couple tables. We opted for a high top table in the bar. Our lovely server greeted us with a smile. We were promptly served water along with warm chips and delicious fresh thick salsa. We ordered "Top Shelf" Margaritas. During different visits the various margaritas were excellent. There are many great choices. I usually judge a Mexican restaurant by their chimichangas. The beef tip chimichangas were beautifully presented and hot.The "chimis "had excellent texture and flavor. High marks for the flavor, size and presentation. I just returned from Houston and loved the Tex-Mex there. Given that recent experience, El Patron rates highly. I visit often and recommend that you do the same. It is a real treat every time. The only downside is the background noise. When the dining area is crowded, the noise is problematic. El Patron should invest in some noise reduction.

Moreover, they did not include tortillas. Very disappointed in this meal. Edit: I found the tortillas in the Jeep this morning. Apparently they fell out of the bag. So, I'll up them a star.
