I'll definitely ask for them to go easy on it next time. All in all it tasted fresh and it was a pretty hearty portion size. The salsa bar had some good selections too, but didn't have two of my favorites--still had nice variety though and I enjoyed the pickled jalapeño onions/carrots. I'll definitely be coming back to dine-in and explore the rest of the menu. My order was made quickly and the folks working there were nice, and it seemed like a very mellow place to eat at due to how quiet it was; not a lot of loud music and not super packed. Looking forward to my next visit!

The starting mashed bean dip is a big hit, and the chips with it nice and fresh. Complimentary seconds on chips and bean dip and salsas! Salsa bar! My friends had fajitas - chorizo and Steak - and liked them. Nice accompanying side dishes with all entrees. I ordered the fish Veracruz, which had too much "glop" on it for me (a creamy sauce, sour cream) and lacked the traditional olives. The tilapia fish was cooked well in it however, and I ate it all. Just not a version of this dish that I would have liked. Service was excellent! And as it was my birthday they served a ball of Fried Ice Cream in a Tortilla Shell and sang.

Don't let the outside fool you; the exterior is deceiving and doesn't draw you in, but once you step inside, El Patron is absolutely amazing and incredibly clean. The food is the real star. I had the fried burrito, which was perfectly crisp and flavorful, smothered in cheese and mole and my husband ordered the Texas Steak. The chips were warm, fresh, and their incredible salsa bar is a massive bonus with so many great authentic flavors. I can't believe I haven't been here before today.
