walked in and got a table, and really enjoyed the food. The ambiance is better in the back than the front, and they have a garden if you prefer outdoor seating. The service was good, though water pouring could have been more efficient and sometimes things like hot sauce were hard to get and there was occasional confusion (eg wrong dishes to wrong tables). But they were very friendly and fixed things when told. The. veggie enchiladas were really good (good selection of veggies including zucchini) and really appreciated they were able to put both green and red sauces on it for me. read more

After an off-broadway show my friend and I popped into this restaurant for a quick bite. The main reason we chose this place was its all-day happy hour featuring $5 margaritas frozen or rocks, $2 more for a flavored margarita and $8 pina coladas. The grill was busy when we got there, as the location is easy to get to. We were seated and ordered margaritas and food. The service was slow at times and it took more than 15 minutes to get 2 margaritas on the rocks. The food came out soon after our drinks. The food was good and the presentation was simple. They automatically added an 18% tip for a party of 2. This was super disappointing as I thought the service was mediocre at best. The overall experience was very basic in comparison to many Mexican eateries in New York City. I'm not sure if I would come back to this grill. read more

We stopped in to have 1 drink for the road from Aqua Boil. The well margerita not frozen was $5. The service was very cool, very nice and friendly. The ambiance was a cool vibe everybody sitting eating and drinking or just drinking. It's a small establishment but it gets the job done. read more

Went on Tuesday (happy hour all day). Charged us max price because we didn't REQUEST happy hour prices. Had a tip gratuity included for a party of 3. Would never come back here again. Trying to bait you into paying full price when they have "all day deals." Dishonest to say the least. read more

Came in at lunch for them to take almost 25 min just to get us water. No chips or salsa were prepared. The host/manager seemed overly forceful in trying to shove the specials down my throat. Didn't improve until we planned to leave and we were offered free tequila shots. Yeah, try to avoid this location, they seem overwhelmed and understaffed. read more

This place was 100% amazing. I came here for margarita day here with my gf and her friend and we absolutely loved it. Our server and bartender Carlos was amazing and made our experience so much better as well. The space itself wasn't huge but definitely organized well to fit a lot of people. The food was a 9/10 with a GREAT portion size and the drinks were definitely worth the price. Will definitely come back if in the area. read more

A friend and I were looking for a place to have drinks before parting ways and heading to our homes. We stopped at Patron Mexican Grill after being pleasantly invited in by two patrons. Unfortunately their hospitality would not be replicated by the bartender. My friend and I sat at the bar for nearly ten minutes without anyone acknowledging or addressing us. Not even a "Someone will be right with you." When the bartender (who seemed like he was intentionally trying to avoid eye contact ) walked near our end of the bar, I tried to get his attention. He looked over and put a finger up to signal he'd be with us soon. My friend and I sat for what felt like another nearly ten minutes when I had to flag him down again. "What happened, did you forget about us?" I tried to joke. Surprisingly, he said "I did!" Even after I reminded him earlier he still "forgot" about us and didnt even offer a courtesy drink, discount, nothing. There wasn't even a sense of urgency to remedy his poor customer service. My friend and I are African-American so it felt like maybe he didnt want to serve Black people. We asked him if they served Black people and he never answered. He just said, "Do you still want drinks?" In any case, we didnt feel welcomed or well received at Patron Mexican Grill. It could just be VERY POOR customer service but this may not be a safe space for Black folk. read more

I've been coming to this place for years since its by my work. The main draw is the drinks. They have these creative, 20oz + booze-filled cocktails both on the rocks and frozen. They're usually filled with flavors/puree and candy such as gummy penguins, lollipops and more. They're usually very tasty and strong. On weekdays there is a happy hour for 9oz $5 maragritas on the rocks or frozen. Three of them equal about the same or more ounces as one of their giant margaritas but for a cheaper price. Just 2 can get you woozy. As for the food, I find that a lot of their items lack flavor. I've tried the nachos, guac, quesadillas, fajitas, and more. The fajitas don't have much flavor, besides the actual taste of the peppers and onions. The steak could use something more, even just salt. The service is also a little inconsistent. You'll be cared for initially but then it's like they forget about you after. Its hard to call someone over because they're always zooming by fast or the music is loud and they can't hear you. This place gets lively past 5pm. They've always seemed to have a consistent crowd. If you sit at the bar and make friends with the staff, something they'll give you a shot. Even though the food has mixed reviews for me, I'll still keep coming back because it is a fun spot with good drinks. read more

Taco Tuesday!! Interestingly enough, this cute spot did not pop up on our Yelp when we were looking for a place but, thankfully we walked passed it & the vibe called us in the staff were all so friendly and attentive. Could be slightly crowded, however, again - it's a vibe! If you're not looking for good energy, fun music mixed with great drinks and food, keep it movin. There's a really cute outdoor/patio section that's only open on weekends - would've loved to have chilled out there as the inside can get hot with no AC. I gotta say, my fave part of this visit was the rice and beans :chefs kiss: The rest was also yummy, however, seems like they leave some flavoring off for you to fix as you feel best fit - adding lime, hot sauces, etc. I think that if I wasnt sweating so bad, I would've stayed longer for some more drinks Cool, chill spot - happy we came across it. read more

Stopped by here after seeing a Broadway play and waiting for our dinner reservation. $5 frozen or on the rocks margaritas (+$2 for fruit flavors) is advertised so we decided to try! I ordered a traditional margarita on the rocks made with house tequila...it was ok for $5. Friends ordered a frozen mango margaritas and they said it was decent. They also tried the guacamole ($15 medium size) and feedback was it was good but a little too much lime. read more

Patron is a Mexican restaurant I've been meaning to try for a while. After stopping by recently, I was very impressed and understand why it's always busy. They had great Taco Tuesday specials, along with an impressive $5 margarita that was delicious. We ordered the chicken tacos and steak tacos. They're not very big so definitely make sure you get multiple. They were amazing and packed with flavor. It also came with some guac which was phenomenal. We really liked the atmosphere and fun vibe of the place. This is definitely somewhere I would return to. read more

Came here for dinner before a broadway show. Ended up really enjoying the vibes of the restaurant - great music and lighting. We ended up sitting at the bar for a quick drink / appetizers and really enjoyed our time. I ordered the house Margarita - I'd skip this one. While it is only $9, it was not strong. Tasted like juice. My fiancé did get the patron tequila drink ($20) and it was STRONG. Highly recommend, plus it's great for a photo! We also ordered the steak nachos - they came with so much steak and guac! The order of 6 Mexican wings was good, but nothing to run home about. Next time I would probably try something else here. Overall, a great spot to try out, especially for drinks! read more

I went here to celebrate my birthday on 11/22/24. The food and drinks were really good. The service too was great. Will come back soon.

Went here after my show and I must say the food was to good. In my past life I believe I was a Mexican because the way I get excited when knowing Mexican food is involved I'm super excited every single time I couldn't wait to try their steak quesadillas that's one of my favorites and, boy when I got my food oh they surely didn't disappoint I loved everything my cousin got the seafood papaya and I tasted that and even that was delicious I literally can't wait to come back I love when I wanna go eat and we find a place we've never been before and they don't disappoint will definitely be back great customer service didn't have any drinks but I know they would've been on point if we had thank again for the great hospitality l read more

So I have been here in the past and liked the food. So we decided to try it again. I didn't have any drinks the last time and we saw a huge menu for a variety of drinks. We tried the house tequila and a house margarita on the rocks. I must say I was hugely disappointed. It didn't even taste like real lime juice in the margarita. And the tequila was okay but nothing great. I've had better house infused tequila with pineapple or other fruit that tasted better. Now or appetizers. OMG you must try the guacamole. So fresh so delicious and just the right blend of lime and cilantro. Absolutely fabulous. Chips were crunchy and flour based which might be a turn of for some. But the appetizer was great. Main course we got fajitas. And in all reality it all barely fit on the outdoor table. Hot sizzling and good. I have had more flavorful but they fit the bill and were satisfying. And didn't even have room for dessert. read more

Not elegant or classy, but delicious! Highly recommended! Can be noisy, but it's fun!

Came here for appetizer and drinks. bbq chicken wings were really good, a little tiny bit spicy but not too bad. We had a frozen Marg i loved it, perfect mix of liq & sweet, not too strong, just right. Music was also great 10/10 from me, it was loud enough to clearly hear the music. ( could be too loud for children) read more

Small space in the front but food is delicious! A friend and I shared the steak plate, which gave me a flavor blast of A1 steak sauce without the sauce. The sides and bell peppers were cooked perfectly. DRINKS! Amazing! Get the skinny margs and you'll have a great time too or the fish bowls in general. Careful though, some of them are so sweet! read more

Everything from the customer service, to the delicious food, clear to the entertainment by none other than Camilo was amazing and would highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy an authentic Mexican dish with a great atmosphere.

Had a friend bring me here for a couple of drinks. The menu was expansive and I had a hard time choosing because everything was so tempting. I had a very strong and tasty Henny Colada, complete with coconut flakes. I also tried the Henny Sangria, which came topped with chopped apple. My neighbor at the bar was enjoying his huge Rubby Ducky fishbowl. This place is heavy on strong drinks and great presentation! The bartender was more than pleasant and super attentive. The bar just had a great vibe! The space itself is...'intimate' but not cramped. There's a neon/greenery backdrop, perfect for social media pics. There were two clean, well kept, gender neutral bathrooms. My only disappointment was not having tried any food. BUT again whatever my neighbors at the bar were having smelled AMAZING. They said their food was great. And I plan on returning to find out read more

Patron is terrible, and for more reasons than just the food. To get the food out of the way, it's very mediocre/bland Mexican food. Nothing special and frankly there's no reason to go here over other nearby spots. But the real reason Patron is terrible is that it's a magnet for trouble. In their outdoor dining, they have people constantly getting into fights and screaming matches. Cops have to come break up fights between customers *multiple times a week*. I don't know how, but they must attract every single obnoxious tool and sloppy drunk in the city. This is the only restaurant in the neighborhood that I wish would go out of business forever. Yesterday, two women rolling around pulling each other's hair in the bike lane, shrieking like hyenas... Patron customers. Two days before that, homeless guy and a Patron customer get into fist fight. Week before that, some couple's drunken screaming match lasting half an hour... Patron customers. And so on. They apparently have no plan to fix this because it's been like this for years. Go somewhere else that has actual good Mexican food and won't put you at risk of getting tackled by a cop. read more

The food was really good the salmon tacos were phenomenal very well cooked the rice beans was very good my partner stated his food was good the taco Tuesday special were small however they looked really good the service was ok nothing to brag about the waiter seemed a bit bothered but ok the ambiance was very well rolling people kept coming in looks like a very well informed spot it was cool my soda was disgusting like it was a cup of straight sugar and it was a Coca Cola not I know it's sweet but it tasted like never before the prices were good I recommend it hands down read more

Excellent food reasonably priced good service wish the sound level was lower Great for pre theatre

I managed to come here with my twin before the second shut down. Our experience was nothing short of entertaining. Our waiter was like no other; this man literally rapped the entire menu to us. That takes real skill. I can barely remember nursery rhymes and this man.... I mean the entire menu without skipping a beat amazing. Kuddos to him. Aside from his rapping skills, his customer service was great (attentive and not annoying). As Henny lovers, my twin and I ordered the Henny O' Rita's for our drinks. Not only were they good but also decorative. I haven't had candy in so long. Why not have it with alcohol. Just saying. The drinks were a decent size and came with an extra shot of Henny. The food wasn't bad either. Let's just say after drinking I definitely scraped the plate. No shame in my game. I hope to visit again when restaurants reopen for indoor dining. read more
