I will be back whenever I'm back in the VA . Great staff portions and food! Great bday lunch.

I went in at 2 pm the other day, it was totally empty except for me that the other person waiting for the Hostess. Looked around and waited for 10 minutes. So one showed. If getting a seat takes this long, I wonder how long it will take to get food. read more

Food was served frozen twice . Then ordered something else that was over seasoned with salt. The two of us had lunch that cost over $45.00 and could not eat it . We talked to a manager and nothing was taken off Or discounted. Leave this restaurant to McDonalds so we could at least have something to eat . Unless you plan to take it home and re cook it , I would not recommend this restaurant. read more

We decided to eat a late lunch and wanted to give this restaurant another chance. Last time they did not have any fountain drinks and the food was not good. Today, my wife and I ordered and got our food but of course mine was cold. (Guess they didn't microwave it long enough.) I asked for no lettuce on my taco and of course they loaded it with lettuce instead of cheese. All of the food was cold. I told the waitress and she just said sorry and brought the check. Very dark inside the restaurant for it to be 2pm. Two strikes and you are out for me. I would never recommend this place to anyone. read more

Only saw our waiter 2 time and didn't get any refills or plates removed off the table and had to wait 15min to get the bill after we where done eating by calling a different waiter. Wouldn't go here fined a different restaurant to go to read more

Mi Patrón - Lots of room! - Mexican Near Me - Lynchburg, Virginia

It's the best in Lynchburg. The staff is always ready with a smile. They're the only Mexican restaurant in town that knows how to prepare a Chili Relleno. read more

The quality of the food is not the best I've had, La Carreta and a few other mexican restaurants in the area are so much better. The service was horrendous, when our drinks and other things were finished all of the staff would walk by and see the empty items and just keep walking by without even stopping to ask if we were done to clear the items from the table, even our waiter did this. The ambiance was the only good thing about this restaurant. 0/10, Would not recommend. Go down the road to La Carreta or El Cabrito's! read more

Waited one and a half hours for 2 orders of cheesy rice, three tacos, and a burrito. Took 35 minutes for drink orders to be taken. Several customers that were seated after us were served before us as well. $67 order and when I explained that we would not be returning (as regular customers who have now experienced this multiple times), the manager said "I'm sorry." Best of luck to this business as they do not appear to care about the customer, speed of service, or the business as a whole. Good riddance and adios amigos. We will not be returning. read more

Mi Patron Mexican Restaurant at Timberlake and Waterlick Rd is excellent. We just moved back to Lynchburg 1st of September after being away six years. We loved the food before and we visited again once we got here. In fact we have eaten there at least four or five times since. The chips and salsa are delicious, crisp chips, and the salsa is banging. We just moved from Tucson, AZ and Mi Patron's chips and salsa are better than any we ate there in six years. The Enchilada Supreme, the Taco and Enchilada combo meal, the Texanos Fajitas (shrimp, chicken and steak), and their many different meal offerings are just delicious. The service is excellent and we are part of a family there. Ricky, Mely, Jose, Daniel have been our family there for over ten years. The ambiance and atmosphere at Mi Patron is inviting and quaint. The restaurant is always packed when we go there unless we go late for a quieter time. My wife and I highly recommend Mi Patron Mexican Restaurants, especially our favorite location at Timberlake Rd. and Waterlick Rd. read more

The restaurant had an odor like old stale cigarettes. The food was good & the price was reasonable but don't think I'll eat here again.

Hands down THE BEST MEXICAN RESTAURANT IN LYNCHBURG!! The best GUAC I have seriously EVER had in MY LIFE! Everything is always fresh and hot. Never fails. Very reasonably priced too. Go here! read more

The people are nice the place looks clean. Its a comfortable place to be. Service is quick. But the food had no flavor. At all. Very disappointing. May try them out again. Maybe they ran out of flavorings that day. read more

This location was the second Mi Patron I visited. The dining area was definitely smaller, but that was okay. The food was pretty much the same, in my experience... except the salsa seemed a bit watery. The serving staff was attentive and helpful for the most part. Even though she ended up liking it, one of my friends ordered an iced tea, and got a smoothy. (He thought she'd said "Icee." Secondly, one of our friends with us, grew up in Mexico/Texas and knows fluent Spanish. The staff seemed pleased with it, aside from an older woman who works there. After my friend asked her something in Spanish, the older woman gave her hostile, dirty looks every time she passed our table. My Spanish-speaking friend brought it to the attention of the owner, and he brushed it aside, saying she was probably just looking at our table to see if we needed anything. This is false. I caught her, at least, twice, giving my friend dirty looks. Later on, I found out that she did this 5 times, at least. The only apology she received was from the person who rang up our bill at the register, not knowing exactly what went on (my friend said that she had bad service). In conclusion, we're not going back to this location... ever. read more

The location was rather small, but it was not too cramped feeling. The food was good and fairly inexpensive. The salsa was watery and VERY mild. I asked if they had anything that was more hot, I wasn't looking for over the top hot; just something with a little kick to it. The little dish that they brought was definitely more hot, I enjoyed it. My husband on the other hand said that it left a strange after taste in his mouth, similar to when you have inhaled fumes from paint thinner. He was less than thrilled with the salsa. The service was exceptional. Our glasses of tea never left 1/2 empty before they were refilled by a pleasant waiter. Overall a pretty decent experience. read more

I've spent quite a bit of money here, the food isn't so great but the fat waitress is the worst. She told other customers my personal information and I've had a humiliating experience. Don't recommend this place! Go to la caretta!!! Way better ! read more

Got a tamale and enchiladas. Great place. The horchata was good and my to go order was ready quickly.

We usually go to Mi Patron at Waterlick once a week! The service keeps us coming back and the food is an added bonus! Food is always served quickly and hot. The waiters are so nice and are great about checking up on us. Restaurant is always clean. When you ask my kids where they want to eat, it's always Mi Patron! Love it! read more

Best of all the locations. Food is great overtime we go there. The wait staff is super polite and helpful. Everything my wife and I have eaten there is great you really can't go wrong. Not sure why the past reviews haven't been great other then they are several years old. Go check it out. read more

Excellent food, quick service, friendly and competent staff, pleasant and cozy atmosphere, generous portions, and reasonable prices. Great experience! read more

Great food and service. !! Ordered chicken fajitas (our fav) to go(busy day) and they were ready in no time. Highly recommend !

Great food. Amazing service. Best salsa I ever had. Very affordable. Beautiful atmosphere. Go!

This used to be our favorite Mexican place to go. They changed the menu and raised the prices. They took my husband's favorite combination dinner of the menu too. It used to be very reasonably priced, but note not so much. read more

They used to be cheaper than La Caretta, but recently changed their prices so I do think they will lose business due to that. That was kind of a selling point for them as the lesser known mexican joint in town. I miss the days of the $7.99 Fishbowl Margaritas, $7.99 Steak Fajita Nachos, and $2.99 Queso Fundido. Used to be my go to, but I go to various mexican restaurants in town since they aren't the cheapest anymore. read more

Gets the order wrong everytime. Food has little flavor. Better Mexican restaurants around here.

Excellent Mexcian food, reasonably calm, quite atmosphere, and attentive service. The only downside I had was their salsa - it's good, but for my tastes anyway there are definitely better salsas around at other Mexican restaurants in town. The Arroz Texano was fantastic though! read more

one of our favorites! we go often, service is usually pretty fast and our favorites are the fajitas & mi patron dip!
