" As a self-proclaimed taco connoisseur, I was excited to check out Taqueria El Patrón. The ambiance of the school bus was quirky, and I loved the outdoor seating! I ordered the shrimp tacos and a carne asada burrito. The shrimp was juicy and perfectly cooked, and the burrito was enormous! I even saved some for later. The salsa verde was heavenly! I left feeling satisfied and grateful for finding such a gem during my road trip. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an amazing experience at Taqueria El Patrón! As soon as I stepped into the taco bus, I was greeted with the warm aroma of freshly cooked food. I ordered some tacos al pastor and they were packed with flavor! The salsas paired well and added a delightful kick. The service was fast and friendly, making my visit all the more enjoyable. I definitely recommend stopping here if you're traveling through Idaho! " (*Curated Review*)

" I really wanted to love this place based on the reviews, but I left feeling underwhelmed. The tacos were good, but a bit too small for my appetite. Service was decent, but not memorable. I think I’ll stick to my local spots, but it was okay for a quick bite while traveling. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a phenomenal experience at Taqueria El Patrón. I ordered several kinds of tacos including carne asada and al pastor, and they were so fresh and tasty!

" I had high hopes for Taqueria El Patrón but I left feeling a bit let down. While the tacos were fresh, the fish taco I ordered had a bit of a fishy taste, making it difficult to enjoy. The service was prompt, yet lacked warmth. It’s a fun concept, but I don’t think I’d return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been coming to Taqueria El Patrón for years, and recently, I noticed a dip in the quality of the food. The last time I visited, my burrito was bland and lacked the spice that used to characterize it. The service is still great, with friendly staff, but I wish they’d return to the authentic flavors that initially attracted me. Still, I’m hopeful my next meal will be better. " (*Curated Review*)
