Great food and Great service had the best salsa I could drink it lol also had to mention Jose great guy .... Yumm

We went here on Tuesday not realizing that it was taco Tuesday and I'm so glad we did. They have solid Mexican food here with good drinks and great deals. The service was good, our waitress was attentive and friendly plus they food was amazing. I loved their chips and salsa, and the margarita I ordered was good too. Inside is a cute, classic Mexican restaurant and the patio we sat at was nice. If you want good Mexican food, check out Los Patios! I ordered a chicken taco and a potato taco, so yummy! read more

Sadly I endured a terrible experience at this establishment. Our server took our order for ONE TACO SALAD. We waited about 20 minutes and he forgot and asked what we ordered again. Waited another 30 minutes. What came out was a plate of TACO INGREDIENTS that was not tossed and lacked presentation. Careless and disappointing service. read more

I would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for some authentic Mexican food. You will definitely enjoy the atmosphere as well as the food. Best regards Ali Amis read more

The wife and I decided to try Los Patios, since we have heard good things about it and had not been. So, off we went to give it a go on a weekday afternoon at lunch. We went insinde to check the place out and were told to sit anywhere. It was nice outside and there was actually a break from the rain, so we chose a table on their patio. It took some time for the waiter to come to our table even though we were one 1 of 3 tables occupied in the whole place. He spent a lot of time at a table that had some people and what I guess was a manager or even the owner, not sure. Finally, we were acknowledged and he took our drink orders and later brought some chips and salsa. Now we had to find out what we were going to eat. The menu is the Mexican version of the Cheesecake Factory menu as it is a book full of many choices. The wife has been trying to duplicate a long time favorite of hers from a Mexican restaurant in the Central Valley. It is a bean and cheese burrito with a chili verde sauce on top. Mostly green sauce, but it has shreds of pork in it as well. We asked if they could conjur up something like this and the waiter said he would check with the cook. He came back and said that they could, but we would be charged the chili verde burrito cost. I didn't think that would be a big deal, so I asked for two of them. Bummer for me, as I should have looked at the menu since the chili verde burrito was $6 more than the bean. The food did not take too long and the bean burrito had a smathering of chili verde on top, certainly we would have received much more chili verde with a full chili verde burrito. So, the upcharge was kinda steep after all. The burritos were big and the taste was pretty good. We did take 1/2 of our burritos home to have later. When I heated mine up the next day, I added some green enchilada sauce and it was decent. I would go again to have the delicious salsa and would try some simpler options. Go. Eat Pretty Good. HAVE FUN! read more
