Shy of Five Stars !…read more It was our first time here and thank you Yelp for guiding us directly. I think not enough people appreciate that simple key ingredient, yelps influence for the good of all. We decided Taco Tuesday was the best place to start and we weren't wrong. The Carne Asada tacos were excellent with plenty of delicious meat and fully dressed out in toppings. I tried the Shrimp Taco and the grilled fish Taco and both were primo. The food is made with love, you can quickly tell when you pick up your tray. My wife raved over the carne asada tacos even on the way home. We have found a new place. It's exceptionally clean and well put together. The service staff were very accommodating and kind and were there to please. A good crowd for the early afternoon. Will definitely be back. You cannot go wrong with the establishment.

You get two fish tacos with your choice of crispy battered or grilled fish, served on corn tortillas and topped with cabbage, fresh pico de gallo, and crema. The combo also comes with rice, beans, and a fountain drink, making it a filling and satisfying meal. The Ensenada Burrito is another favorite. It's a generously sized flour tortilla packed with battered shrimp, carne asada, rice, refried beans, cabbage, fresh pico de gallo, crema, and salsa. I love getting both the seafood and carne asada flavors together. One little extra I really appreciate is their complimentary chili-lime seasoned peppers and onions. They add a nice kick and go perfectly with the fish tacos. Good portions, and a combo that really hits the spot. Definitely a place we enjoy coming back to!.

First off, was surprised to see the restaurant size - did not imagine it to be that big, appreciated the tasteful decor and ambiance - they did well with the place (peep the water tank), and the service was great from beginning to end. The menu is pretty standard, they offer everything you'd expect from Mexican restaurant but what I really like is they seem to have withheld from shrinkflation. Food portions are decent sized and prices are right proportional to that. Totally appreciated in todays economy. I had 3 chicken tacos and they were good - pretty standard and nothing over the top. Family at the table really enjoyed what they ordered which included a carne asada burrito, sopitas, chicken enchiladas, and potato tacos. We had a birthday at the table and they made a spectacle of it with a big sombrero and employees singing. It was sweet and fun. Our server was really patient, present, and accommodating. She made the dining experience that much better and bummed I can't recall her name cause she deserves a shout out. Overall, good suburban Mexican restaurant for an intimate group or large party.

Their "carne en su jugo" is legitimately delicious! I'm not usually a fan of carne asada but a friend ordered the carne asada plate and offered for me to sample from her plate and I was absolutely floored. This place does not skimp on quality. The cut of the meat was top quality. None of those awful cuts with lots of chewy nerves here. Pure tender deliciousness. Me and my wife LOVE teje shrimp burrito. Again, the ingredients are top quality and fresh. This is not a budget restaurant but it's not obscenely expensive. Expect to pay about $30-$50 per person here. This is one of the few restaurants that is worth every penny. On Sundays around brunch time, there is live mariachi, which is great if you're into that sort of thing. They also regularly have dance events, live music, and DJs. There are many reasons to visit. Check it out!

This visit I had the Seafood Trio, and it was outstanding. The seafood was cooked perfectly, well seasoned, and the entire plate was delicious from start to finish.

The service is always friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere makes it a great place for a casual meal or dinner with family and friends. I've tried plenty of Mexican restaurants in the area, but Los Patrones continues to be the one I keep coming back to. Great food, great service, and definitely worthy of five stars.

She took our order, left, and someone else eventually brought out our food. After that, we were completely ignored. As the video clearly shows, two employees were standing around visiting with each other on one side of the restaurant, while two more were gathered at the far end of the nearly empty dining room. Not one of them bothered to check on us, ask whether we needed anything, offer refills, or see how our food was. After we finished eating, we waited more than 30 minutes just to receive our check. We repeatedly tried to wave someone over while the staff continued to ignore us. The food was just as disappointing as the service. It arrived cold, and I was specifically told my chimichanga contained shredded chicken breast. It did not--it was filled with large chunks of fajita-style chicken instead. I truly wish we had never given this place a chance. Poor service, cold and misleading food, and employees who seemed more interested in visiting with one another than taking care of paying customers. Don't make the same mistake we did!

The prior Irish pub used to have some music and dancing I can't remember maybe on Thursdays or something and it was pretty popular so why they made the change I don't know but now it's permanently closed. Let's get something in here that's well liked and tolerated by everybody that can last a few years instead of every other year there's something new struggling to make it go. Their street tacos and food platters weren't bad and the beer was always cold, it was a quiet place to hide out but I guess that was its downfall sometimes you could be the only one in there or two or three other people and that won't pay the bills in a location that's known for high rent.

It was hard not to crave them whenever we had a free afternoon near her place and nowhere else to be. It's the same with the flauta at Los Portales. Although it isn't as cheap, and it comes with only one instead of flauta, this flauta is fierce and mighty. It's also a big boy. I got it this time with the beef because that's the standard but I'm curious to taste how the pork option might enhance it. Because the beef was certainly delicious, but pork is a preferred option for me and I've never had it in a flauta before. The service was kind of lackluster. I only saw our server three times--when he took the order, when he dropped the bill, and when he came back after charging the card. The lack of care for the customer as you can imagine left a bad taste in my mouth. The setting made up for it with a good-sized dining room, plenty of ambiance, and a good crowd that made the whole joint feel busy without feeling crowded. I could definitely eat in peace here without it feeling like it wasn't doing well. All in all, the good food made up for the bad service, and it seems like a popular place. I'm willing to come back to try that pork flauta.

There's nothing around it, everything feels dated, but it does give off that small, family, homey vibe. We walked there but there is a parking lot and it didn't seem busy at all. There's a lot of seating inside with some televisions. We were immediately greeted and the lady taking our order told us a bit about their menu. We ended up with a birria burrito, taco al pastor, and a birria combination plate. Our order didn't take long to prepare and we took it back home to enjoy. The taco al pastor was ok. The combination plate was plentiful, but still only ok. The birria burrito was ok. It was filling albeit a little bland. I had asked the lady taking our order if we packed our own salsa, and she said she'd do it for us since the ones that were out were for customers who were dining in. She only gave us 2 salsas (1 of each). I had asked for the spiciest ones, but the salsas we got were not spicy at all. Overall, I think it's a good spot, but it definitely needs more flavor to their meats. I wish they had given us a side of consome for the plate combination and for the burrito, or at the very least, more salsa.
