" The experience I had at Don Patron was mixed. I enjoyed the ambiance and decor; it felt true to Mexican culture. However, my enchiladas arrived a little cold and lacked flavor. The server was friendly and offered to replace them, which I appreciated. I think if the food matches the quality of their service, it could be a great spot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have tried Don Patron several times, and I feel like they usually deliver great food but this last visit was an outlier. Service was slow, and our food took a long time to arrive. I was disappointed because I typically look forward to their authentic flavors. I’m hoping this was just a one-time issue! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally decided to try Don Patron after hearing about it from friends. I had the cheese quesadilla, and it was surprisingly good. The only bummer was our drinks took forever to arrive, even though the place wasn’t packed. I wouldn’t say the atmosphere was anything special, but it did feel like a casual place to hang out. Overall, I was satisfied and will likely come back to try something different. " (*Curated Review*)

" Don Patron’s is a hidden gem! I had the chance to visit during lunch with some co-workers, and we ordered a variety of dishes to share. The fajitas were steaming hot and well-seasoned, but the stars of the meal were definitely the tacos - authentic filling with a deliciously homemade taste. The only complaint was the space felt a bit cramped, but it matched the lively atmosphere. I’d give it 5 stars for authenticity and flavor! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the service at Don Patron was overall friendly, my experience wasn't as great as I had hoped. My table received the wrong orders, and one of my colleagues had to wait much longer than the rest of us for their meal. That said, the food we did receive was tasty, especially the tacos. Portions were generous for the prices, but I can't overlook the service issues. I hope they can smooth things out because the food is good enough to warrant a second chance. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Don Patron several times, and it’s been a favorite of mine for years! This past visit was on a Saturday night, which was busy, but our server was attentive and quick to help. I had the carne asada tacos—they were juicy and cooked to perfection. The margaritas are also the best I've had around, strong and refreshing. The only downside was how loud it could get during peak hours, but it was worth it for the good food. " (*Curated Review*)

" The taco special was decent, but the wait staff seemed overwhelmed during my visit. I saw a few other tables getting served faster, which was frustrating. The food had potential, but this time it didn’t hit the mark for me. I think I might wait a while before giving them another chance. " (*Curated Review*)
