" Great food, but we encountered a few issues during our visit. Our server forgot about us a couple of times, but the food made up for it. Still worth a visit for the delicious dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited El Patron last night and I must say the food did not disappoint! I ordered the super burrito and was surprised at how large the portion was. Each bite was flavorful and filling. The service was a bit slow but the staff was friendly. I'd recommend going earlier to avoid a long wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited El Patron on a Friday evening and it was packed. The food was delicious, I had the shrimp fajitas and my partner had the enchiladas. Both were excellent! However, service lagged quite a bit with how busy they were, but I totally understand. I will be back for sure. " (*Curated Review*)
