OK, let me just say that this is my new, most favorite restaurant to dine in now.! For once, I got my food exactly how I wanted it. I asked the waitress if I could get it spicy, like really, really hot. And she started giving me all kinds of options that she could get the kitchen staff to do for her/me. I got the lunch special, asada burrito and she had the kitchen put a habanero sauce on top, with some freshly roasted Serrano peppers on the side. It was perfect.! Also, I'm a huge fan of chips and salsa, to munch on before my meal. And they also serve up a small bowl of refried beans to accompany the salsa and chips. Pure brilliance, that's how I do it at home.!The wait staff were absolutely spectacular and the food was completely on point.! My wife had the chorizo con huevos, and she really loved it, even made a breakfast burrito the next day, from the leftovers.Try this place out, I highly doubt that you could possibly be disappointed. And if you want something different, don't be afraid to ask. I only wish that I could have gotten my waitresses name, so I could praise her, but unfortunately, her shift ended just before we finished.!

Easy to find on Google Maps, lots of parking, bathrooms, wheelchair /handicap accessible.We made reservations a week in advance for a party of 10. Had family traveling from California and Southern Oregon. It was ?graduation day. We showed up to find they had NO reservations in our name, but the individual name taken on the day the reservation was made still worked there ?.Ok after 30 min. They set up tables in the bar area we were seated alone, we sat and waited... Finally a waitress came took orders for food. She was ask "What cut of steak is used in the fajitas combo " reply " oh meat tender" ? that put up the caution ? flag ⚠️For the most part orders were correct, Saddley the graduates order " Volcano Fajita " they couldn't get right. When the 5 Fajita meals arrived there weren't even hot ? we had to repeatedly ask for silverware and water. The food tasted good ? ?Sadly the employees know NOTHING about what their serving.

Recent new owners so we checked it out.. Enjoyed the food, drinks were good too. We had Cadillac Margaritas, fajitas, tostadas and tacos carbon. No one was disappointed. The service was attentive and COVID protocols were followed. Plenty of room for distancing as well. Sorry I always forget to take photos!

I was super disappointed when we went to dinner and was taken to our seats. Where we waited almost 15 minutes. Not once were we addressed. I mean not even given water or a well will be right with. Not a peep. Well we ended up walking out not addressed on our way out. We did see 3 employees watching and taking pictures of a shot!!!

Food was impressively fast and delicious!Perfect place to bring family and friends, staff was nice and the restaurant was beautiful will definitely be back soon thank you.

Unexpectedly excellent! I wasn't fond of it's predecessor, but El Patron is quite good. Two large menus covering everything from a t-bone steak, to tex-mex, to Baja, along with a half page of very traditional true Mexican food. Reasonably priced, huge excellent drinks, and food that makes you want to return again and again! What more could one ask for?

The service was excellent and the food was good.

Phone is out of service? I tried to place an order on 11-12-21 using the phone number on the website and got a dial up internet noise.That aside excellent restaurant. I have ordered take out as well as eaten inside and the service is spectacular as is the food.

The folks were nice, food was delicious and margaritas were very tasty!!

Food was great the service sucked. They brought one of the drinks as we were getting ready to leave. I can't remember the last time I had service this bad. Usually these guys are really good. I don't know what happened tonight.
