" I gave El Patron a shot after hearing about their amazing pupusas. While they were indeed flavorful, I have to say that the service was kind of slow due to the lack of staff on a busy evening. The atmosphere was lively, which I appreciated. I just wish my drinks had been refilled more promptly. " (*Curated Review*)
