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.
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.
This was actually our first time dining here and we absolutely loved the experience. I ordered out once a while ago, but today was a totally different experience. My daughter stated she gives them a 20 out of 10. When we arrived they weren't busy but the crowd started shortly after. The establishment was very clean and chill. Our server was so sweet and the food was amazing! We ordered a large cheese dip for the table. My son and I are fans of empanadas and wr orders chicken and beef. I would have preferred cheese in mine and a little more seasoning in the beef. But, no worries, I added the cheese dip on top. My son and I also had the Burrito Grande with chicken; soooo good. My daughter had the Pizza Birria and it was delicious. She stated it was the best she's had and trust me she's had her share. My husband had the quesadilla el patron. For drinks, I started off with the Pineapple Aguas Frescas but traded it for the Mango one. The mango was better. My son had the fruit punch Jarrito, my daughter had the mango as well, and my husband had the Horcheta. Needless to say, we will return. This is probably our favorite now!
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.
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
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 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!
Food was awesome. I had the molcajete and it was so flavorful. Really authentic home cooked style.
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.

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!! read more

I was looking for a good taco place and I think I found it! I always order tacos de carne asada or flautas and the tacos here are really good. They make their tortillas in house too. I did not like their horchata, it tastes like it's made from a powder instead of real horchata but overall the food is amazing and I will be back again! read more

We absolutely love this place but the Togo order we got was so nasty we didn't even eat it. Taqueria el patron why did you do us like this? Before corona we were regulars but after this to go experience we will NEVER return and I'm posting photos of the horrible food we got on every platform possible. I am beyond upset. I work 12 hour days and drive 2.5 hours to and from work so just wanted to take ONE night off from cooking and didnt even get that so we paid for food that went in the trash. Guess yall feel like if it's togo you can give us crap to eat. Update 2 hours after I ate a few bites before tossing it and now I'm throwing up. Lovely. Don't order from here unless your eating in what a waste of 40$ read more

We came here this past Sunday and ordered menudo when the server brought out our food, it was in a big bowl but all broth with maybe 5 pieces of tripe and no hominy. The server came back with a tiny bowl of tripe, we ended up swapping it out for pozole which was a little bit better, almost the same issue though. We really do like supporting local businesses please do better read more

Very fresh and very authentic. I have never had huaraches before and I think it may be the best Mexican dish I've ever had. Empanada was very hot and crispy. I've also had the tamale and flautas. All very good. I had a different waitress every time and each of them were very friendly and attentive. I don't have enough good things to say about this place. I'm from out of town and I've been working here for months. This is by far one of the best Mexican places I've ever been. read more
Y'all, I have spent FOREVER trying to find authentic tacos in the South, specifically barbacoa tacos. Taqueria El Patron finally satisfied my cravings for authentic street tacos!! Very affordable and fast service. I ordered my usual trio: lengua, barbacoa, and Tripita. I was very satisfied with all three tacos and am so happy I ran across this location. Salsa was spicy and amazing as well too. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would but it's not possible. In my life I've never had tacos as oily and unseasoned as these. I'm not sure why this place would ever be given more than 2 stars. We thought maybe it was an "off" day but if your off day is a Friday afternoon then you have so much to work on. Will never return here and will never recommend this place. read more

I always want to kick myself for not thinking of coming here more often. I like this place because it is super affordable and everything tastes good. You never regret spending money on another night out because no one wanted to cook. Everything is super casual and the food always comes out hot (you'd be surprised how many downtown restaurants serve lukewarm quesadillas). The service was actually good too! Nancy was friendly, attentive and always around when we needed her. Usually, we order soup for takeout, especially when we're sick. I get the chicken and he's obsessed with the Menudo. It tastes even better with the cilantro and onions they add on the side. But this time I didn't get flautas or tacos like I usually do (still recommend them though). I'm not a fan of most sandwiches that aren't deli sandwichyes, but I was surprised to see a hot, sizzling plate of pork with all the fixings (smashes beans, cheese, carnitas, lettuce, onions, etc.). It's like an open-face sandwich with .75 inch thick, fried corn-based bread. It's not spicy and the flavors blend well together-total harmony. It's actually really big too. Some people can eat it in one sitting, but I think most would box up half of it. The bean and cheese dip is also pretty good. It's a simple and delicious mixture of white cheese with refried beans. Frankly, I try to save my appetite and go straight to the main course with a Jarrito's soda on the side. Next time, I'm just going to close my eyes and point to a picture. I haven't been disappointed with any of the meals there. read more

Menu has really good variety. I haven't had some of these dishes or seen them available at the few other spots I've been to, which is nice. I'm used to authentic homemade Mexican food as well as bomb restaurants in the west coast, so this seems relatively promising, based on the tacos alone lol. They don't serve alcohol here, but the food is legit. read more

After a long road trip and some car shopping, we were looking for somewhere good to eat and relax. The reviews for this place were pretty amazing. Very rarely do you see a restaurant with 4.5 stars with almost 300 reviews. Coming here was a no brainer. Yes - It's authentic Mexican but I wasn't blown away. The salsas (all three temperatures/flavors) were very good and I thoroughly enjoyed them. My kids were able to custom order their meals and they were very happy. My wife and I ordered a Burrito El Patron with Steak and a Two Taco Platter. The Burrito was a good size but had a lot of filler items with barely any steak. The Barbacoa Taco was very good and the meat was moist. The Pastor Taco was dry and a bit on the chewy side. All in all, the flavors were good but the execution was unimpressive. Also on the plus side - 1) we were seated right away - 2) service was fast - 3) they have desserts including a freezer with Paletas. There are probably other menu items that might be way better than what we had. Definitely would give them another try. read more

I usually opt for a different restaurant if we are going to be eating Mexican food but this one is so close to our house and I was "code orange" hungry which is dangerously close to hangry. I digress. You seat yourself when you walk in. (There is more seating if you walk past the tables and turn to the right into another dining room.) chips and salsa are complementary and they have some of the best flavored salsa in Augusta, in my opinion. I ordered the Mexican taco special which was two chicken tacos on corn tortillas with cilantro and diced onion, accompanied by rice and beans. I wasn't a fan of the chicken, I found it lacking flavor. My husband ordered the Birria tacos and they were delicious! I ended up dipping mine in his "stew". Our waitress was prompt and pleasant. We will probably return and try new things! read more

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.
