When it comes to great food, there's just something about gas stations(particularly in the middle…read moreof nowhere) that just gets it right. El Patron is no exception. A full on Mexican taqueria hidden in a gas station on a random interstate road. Tacos, burritos, quesadillas and even tortas. Everything fresh and grilled to order. I go for the steak burrito. The meat could have used a little more seasoning, but it is super filling and good value. But as far as memorable, look no further than the churros. Hot, crispy, chewy, sweet goodness. The caramel filling is out of this world good. Easily the best churros I have ever had. El Patron is another gas station hit.

This is located in the new Krate at the Grove, located right off I-75 and SR 54. This is the…read morelatest location expanding on what is a food truck located in Dade City. The menu is somewhat limited with a number of items taped over on the menu board, so not sure what those will be. But they have a number of good tacos and burritos. They have all the standard meats and even marinated pork (pastor). The tacos are small so the average person would need 2-3 to fill them up. The burritos are bigger, but also about three times the price of a single taco. The food is fresh and I enjoyed all the various flavors they loaded in. They offer red and green sauces on the side. I also tried the beans (side) which are light brown in their juice, but not refried. Drinks are limited with bottled water, Mexican Coca-Cola in a small bottle and a couple Mexican flavored sodas. No refills. They offer dine-in with about eight tables for 2-4 people. You order at the counter and they call your number when it's ready (mine took about 10 minutes). Definitely not big enough for large parties. Outside there are some tables with umbrellas. I enjoyed walking around the Krate to see all the mural art along with the new shops and restaurants that officially GRAND open on June 4th. Check this new entertainment venue out. They will have music on a stage in the park on the weekends. It is a bit hot during the summer, so preferred time is after sunset.

I spoke with the server Nelly and I wanted to know what style as in what region do they represent in their cooking. She mentioned owners are from Guanajuato Mexico and bring those flavors to the restaurant. I have personally visited this region and yes !! I can taste it in their dishes. Guanajuato is known for their culinary taste and style and you will fall in love with their flavors. So if you are near Dade City or just willing to take the ride to experience Guanajuato flavors in Florida, Del Carmen will not disappoint!!!!! Must visit and I'll be back to check off more dishes from their extensive menu. What a great Authentic experience!!

We both ordered sopes which was our fave here. I ordered one, and my husband ordered the sopes platter with two sopes, rice, & beans, I took his beans with my single sopes. This time the steak tasted different and the flavor wasn't all there. It was ok but definitely have had better ones now. They use to include guacamole too. That's long gone. We ordered a horchata and pineapple agua frescas. Of course these are more expensive and much smaller now. Service was ok but difficult to locate our server. It wasn't too busy either bc it was early in the week. Not sure if we will be back here much. Now I still want more sopes bc this one didn't fill my taste buds for it. Ambiance was loud and echoey with two parties. With a full house, wow bring your headphones bc it will be super intensely loud in case you have sensitive ears like me.
