Ordered a veggie burrito for takeout here and was pretty happy with it. It contained squash,…read morezucchini, rice, beans, and pico de gallo with a LOT of queso poured on the top. I'll definitely ask for them to go easy on it next time. All in all it tasted fresh and it was a pretty hearty portion size. The salsa bar had some good selections too, but didn't have two of my favorites--still had nice variety though and I enjoyed the pickled jalapeño onions/carrots. I'll definitely be coming back to dine-in and explore the rest of the menu. My order was made quickly and the folks working there were nice, and it seemed like a very mellow place to eat at due to how quiet it was; not a lot of loud music and not super packed. Looking forward to my next visit!

I understand it was a little after the dinner rush, but I could not have dealt with nicer servers or people. The one thing I will say that has changed as they put fries in a bag as opposed to putting them in a cup and I find that to be a little bizarre. I'm sure it saves the money, but there's nothing Like getting a cup of fries and knowing that there's a whole bunch of fries at the bottom of the bag, but now a mini bag of fries inside bag, the magic seems to dwindle. The ambience was calm, but it was definitely smelling of delicious fries and and it only made you want The ambience was dim, but it fit with a late night order and they were more than kind and clean about everything.

The fries were really fresh and what we love is they cook everything made to order! We know the fries aren't always but this time they were fresh!!! The service is good because they do cook and take orders so no issues at all! If eating in, it's a good private dining experience and you get refills on your drinks and free condiments! Plus peanuts if you want them!!!

Back again each year and STILL HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Smaller group this time (only 6 made the trip)…read more It seems that typically after a couple of years a restaurant could start to cut back on portion sizes or quality of service and food... That is not at all the case here! Though it was crowded we were seated right away inside near the salsa bar... Probably will request the porch again next time. Our server was great, which is typical each time we have come! He kept our drinks full, it was always quick to refill our basket of chips or anything else we ask for. We started with a bowl of queso to share -- LARGE, and enough to take some home even after 6 of us ate from it -- and the table side guacamole. Let me tell you that I'm not a "guacamole guy", but I dug into this!! It was DELICIOUS, and will be the standard I compare all other guacs to now!!! My wife and I both ordered the steak fajitas, knowing they would be a large portions and that we could bring extra home to our cabin. She made it through about a third of hers, I made it through only half. Plenty to bring back, and we were given fresh tortillas to bring home as well. Delicious! My BIL got fajitas as well, SIL got the chimichangas, and one nephew got chicken tenders while the other got enchiladas. Everything was delicious and no complaints! Keep up the great service, delicious food, and large portion sizes at a decent price -- and we will keep coming back!

Don't let the outside fool you; the exterior is deceiving and doesn't draw you in, but once you step inside, El Patron is absolutely amazing and incredibly clean. The food is the real star. I had the fried burrito, which was perfectly crisp and flavorful, smothered in cheese and mole and my husband ordered the Texas Steak. The chips were warm, fresh, and their incredible salsa bar is a massive bonus with so many great authentic flavors. I can't believe I haven't been here before today. After decades of searching for a go-to spot in town, we've finally found it. We will absolutely be back!

Being located inside a shopping mall, I honestly did not go in expecting the food to be anything…read morespecial. Typically, mall food tends to fall somewhere in the middle--either just okay or forgettable. However, this restaurant completely exceeded my expectations. The food was served very hot, very fresh, and incredibly delicious. The portion sizes were also generous, which made the value even better. Everything tasted well prepared and satisfying, especially for a mall setting. The service was solid overall. The associate helping us was friendly and attentive, though he didn't seem to know the full menu and had to turn around and reference it a few times. That said, it didn't negatively impact the experience in any major way. One of my friends in our group had an issue with his order, and I was genuinely impressed with how it was handled. They immediately corrected the mistake by making him an entirely new meal and even allowed him to keep the original one as well. That level of customer service is not something you see often, especially in a mall food environment. Would I recommend this place? Absolutely--without hesitation. I would recommend it over many other dining options in the mall. If you already plan on visiting the mall, this spot is definitely worth your time. I was also told that they have a brick-and-mortar location outside of the mall. If you're not a fan of mall dining, I would highly suggest seeking out their standalone location instead. Based on this experience, it's likely just as good--if not better. Overall, the restaurant space was very clean, well organized, and clearly well maintained. Do not hesitate to try this place as soon as possible--it easily outperforms many of the surrounding options and is far better than what you might expect from a typical mall restaurant.Honestly, this particular place exceeded my expectations even more because the meal also came with free tortilla chips on the side, which was a nice and unexpected bonus.
