Great food: frescas, entrees and desserts…read more I ordered lengua , pork belly and shrimp cheese tacos. I loved the crunchiness of the pork belly and the flavor. The lengua taco had meat that was tender and delicious. Both tacos were lightly seasoned and not hot. The shrimp cheese taco was my least favorite. The shrimps were small and had no flavor. There was a lot of cheese, but again there was no real flavor that made you want to order it again. I believe if they used large grilled shrimp and no cheese , but grilled onions, this taco would be a hit. The tacos came a side of guacamole, different peppers and sliced radishes. The frescas were made in-house: hibiscus, watermelon and cantaloupe. I ordered the cantaloupe fresca and it was refreshing with just amount of sweetness . My husband ordered the birria tacos and he definitely would ordered them again. He ordered the hibiscus fresca and said it was very good. He wants to go back and try more of their food. We ordered churros which were made in house. They tasted like the churros we had in Barcelona. We want to order this again. Everyone who came with us enjoyed what they ordered. Overall, Tacos El Patron was a wonderful experience because of the quality of their food. We hope to return very soon.

I have to be honest, one morning I was starving and forgot my lunch ao I was forced to order from this place. I ordered a breakfast burrito with papas, huevos, chorizo and frijoles. It was a $12 burrito for something that was the size youd give a kid. I was so disappointed! I would have been better iff elsewhere. I gave them 3 stars for convenience but I will keep trying other establishments in the area that better suit my needs. I hear their birria is what theyre known for. But itll be a while before I head back.

We stopped in on a Thursday night, and the restaurant was definitely busy with lots of to-go orders coming through. There were also a few people dining in and enjoying the soccer game.

Plus we had chips and guacamole to share. Everything was seasoned perfectly, and the flavors were amazing. The guacamole was so creamy and fresh! The staff were friendly and the restaurant was very clean. This is officially our new go-to spot for Mexican food.

We loved their red spicy sauce and super crunchy fresh curtido. They are packed into small zip lock bags. I forgot to take photos since I was hungry. This little shop is in the middle of nowhere next to a small auto parts shop and parking is limited. The immediate area is ugly and industrial but the pupusas keep us coming back. Best taken to go. It's not a comfortable spot to eat in. We paid 4 dollars per pupusa to go. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

My go to is the 3/$12 Revuelta pupusas and the Plantains with the beans . Top tier beans and plantains. I am so glad I found this place. It is very close to my work. I do recommend calling in your order at least 30 minutes before so that it'll be ready for you to pick up. sometimes they do not answer their phone but they will give you a call back. Keep in mind they do not accept tap pay, but they do accept Zelle and Venmo if you need to make a mobile payment. It is small and cozy inside but there are at least 4 tables if you want to dine in. They do have a few tvs if you were there to relax while waiting or out with your family. Being new to the area, this place will definitely be my go to for pupusas.

There is zero indication that Mexican food is being served in this ugly concrete box. What's up with the stupid millennial decór? -1 star for the presumptuous prices. $15 for a burrito that doesn't even come with guac or sour cream? Some nerve think so much of yourselves with so many better, cheaper options around. -1/2 star for no salsa bar. What jerks. -1/2 star because the tortilla wrappers suck and make the corn tortillas stinky. Overall disappointing. Weird to tout your anniversary, when you've lost all logic and personality. $75 for this crap, and you didn't even include the requested napkins? Goodbye, old friend.
