Fajita burrito
Jon C.

I came here based on the reviews. I'm glad I did. The first thing that stuck our were the affordable prices quickly followed by how big the burrito was. You couldn't even wrap/fold it! It was like a giant taco! Lastly was how tasty the food was. I got the fajita burrito. It was very good. I had planned on saving 1/2 for later, but I ate it all before I knew it. The service was neither fast nor slow. I got the food to go but everyone I interacted with was friendly. The ambiance was casual but clean.

Tacos (cabeza)
Rebekah A.

I think we'll be regulars here forever. My kids refuse to eat anywhere else when we talk about options to eat out. All of their meat is delicious, the salsas are still our favorite and will buy them to-go because I cannot recreate it still. The meal for our whole family is still very affordable and doesn't compare in taste to any other Mexican establishment in Augusta. The staff has always been kind and helpful. The restaurant itself is clean and has lots of seating. It's seems to be consistently busy but, room to be seated/served.

Gordita with barbacoa
Danie R.

This is our new favorite Mexican spot. We've been in Augusta for about 3 years now. Mi Rinconcito was our fave at first, but they stopped having tripe. Then we did El Rey. We love their salsa bar. But this place! This is THE spot. The food is so good. I think we tried just about every meat on the menu. Everything seems super homemade and fresh. The corn tortillas, the empanadas, gorditas all seem like they were just made. I especially love the corn tortillas. There's just a different, amazing flavor when the corn tortillas are fresh. Service was excellent too! She gave us great recommendations

3 Birria Tacos with Consome
Adam K.

We had two chicharron pupusas to start, very cheesy and crispy! My wife had the Birria Tacos and I had the 2 mini Chimichangas with rice and beans. The tacos were good, balanced, the consome kind of bland. My chimichangas were crispy, fresh, hot, and very filling, rice and beans were also tasty and hot! We also shared a Horchata, and it was a let down, it tasted like the powdered instant stuff. The place wasn't that busy at 4pm on Friday so we were helped quickly by a friendly waitress. There are also pretty nice slot machines in the back!

Molcajete el Patron
Nathan S.

Food was awesome. I had the molcajete and it was so flavorful. Really authentic home cooked style.

Yummy authentic menu, delicious food, great service & clean establishment! We all liked everything about our experience here today. The staff was friendly, the food did not take long to come out and was fresh to order, even though the restaurant was packed when we got there. Our meals were packed with food flavor, leaving our bellies full with satisfaction. Not to mention, I loved the colorful art on the furniture and walls. Our server was a sweet young lady who took very good care of our table. Quick tip: they don't serve alcohol. It might just be a Sunday thing, but that was the only thing we didn't expect. Call us whatever you want, but we are used to having that option back home in SC. My shrimp quesadilla appeared to be a little skimpy on the shrimp, but one I tasted it, it was so delicious and honestly just enough shrimp in there to be very satisfied. Even the beans and rice served with my quesadilla were very good! My son loved his quesadilla mexicana with beef and my husband ate all of his chuletas with a big smile on his face. My youngest son scarfed down his cheese quesadilla and couldn't have been happier about his meal if he tried. Truthfully, this place feels authentic and they serve a lot of authentic Mexican meals too. I definitely want to come back again. Even the house-made salsa was delicious! The salsa verde was very flavorful and the spicy salsa had very good flavor too.

tacos

one of the best mexican restaurants in augusta! super authentic, such a great place to eat. Prices are more than reasonable. Their nachos and salsa is a delicious start to the meal. I always get tacos here and you can't go wrong picking any flavor! Their fajitas are delicious too. I also get their horchata even though it tastes watered down. The fried icecream is actually cornflakes rolled on the outside of an ice cream ball but no complaints it was still really good. There's a lot of seating area in this place so it's good to take a group of friends :)

We love this place!! Sunday dinners at el patron are always the move. The atmosphere is always lively. Service is SO fast like we literally had our food in minutes. They don't serve alcohol, but honestly that is part of the charm. It helps keep it more local and less touristy. Great soda and dessert selection as well!!

This restaurant is located in a strip mall along Washington Rd. in Augusta, GA. After getting checked into our hotel, we looked around for somewhere to go for dinner. We saw there were quite a few Mexican places in the area that had fairly high reviews. After looking at different places, we decided to give this place a try. It was only about 10 minutes from the hotel. Our visit here was on July 25, 2019. Once you step inside, you can see the brighter colors inside this place. It wasn't too crazy when we came in, so we were immediately seated. Once seated our server came over and brought some chips and salsas and asked us what we wanted to drink. When she came back, we asked about the salsas. There were three of them. One is mild, one is medium, and one is hot. I can definitely confirm the hot one is hot when it comes to spice. We also ordered a cheese dip. Shortly after the cheese dip coming out, we were ready to order entrees. While waiting for our order, we had the cheese dip, which was good. It was just cheese dip with no spices or anything else in it. After looking things over, I ended up going with the Burrito Grande, but without the rice. My mom went with the Quesadilla El Patron with beef tips. About 5 to 8 minutes later, our dinner entrees came to the table. The food looked really good. The Burrito Grande was a nice, large portion size. The burrito was also very good. The only issue that I had with it was that it didn't come out hot like I experience at other Mexican restaurants. My mom said hers was the same way with her quesadilla. We never got a chance to address the issue as the server (and others) were busy with the large take out line that was happening most of the time we were there. Other than that, the food was good. Overall, this place was okay based on my visit. Service was a bit spotty with them being busy with take out orders and the food not being as hot as one would expect in a restaurant. If my travels take me back this way again, I would still try them again.

The food was not great. The shrimp was terribly overcooked (to the point of rubber)! Do not recommend

Is anything here for vegetarians?

Yes, I've seen some people order burritos, flautas or tacos with just beans instead of meat. They also have salads. They do not have tofu, if that's what you're looking for.

Do they have margaritas?

No unfortunately they are alcohol free at this time.

My lady and I happened to find this spot while walking around downtown Augusta. I thought it looked…read moretoo good to pass up. If you know anything about me, you know I can't pass up good Mexican food, and this was that and then some. We popped in for lunch and were seated right away. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. We loved all the artwork and the laid back feel of the place. The menu was loaded with lots of tasty options at great prices. Here's what we had: -House Margarita pitcher -Three beef hard shell tacos -Burrito Supreme w/ rice and beans They brought our food out very quickly and everything was great. The margaritas were very tasty too. Our server was extremely attentive and made sure our drinks were always filled. Even the chips and salsa were delicious. We'd absolutely go back here again.

My fiancée picked this spot for lunch. The outside looked cool and who can pass up a Mexican…read morerestaurant?! The inside is pretty cool! It's super bright, colorful, spacious and loved the decor! They were not busy so we were seated right away. I was blown away with their food and drink menu. Very reasonable in pricing. Good selection and has something for everyone. Including vegetarians. We ordered: -House Margarita pitcher -Three beef hard shell tacos -Burrito Supreme with beans and Spanish rice. I loved the complimentary chips and salsa. It had great flavor. The house Margarita was amazing. We didn't wait long for our food. We both enjoyed it! Love my tacos! It wasn't messy to eat and tasty. My fiancée enjoyed his meal as well. What a great experience. Service was good, bathrooms clean and food was great! I highly recommend you check them out.
