Decided to stop by one night after seeing them in the corner in lake Elsinore. Didn't look at the reviews before stopping and I probably should have. I bought three tacos. Total was 9 dollars plus a dollar to use your credit card or ATM card. Service took a little long to get three tacos especially if the meat was already prepped. There was only one other person in front of us that ordered. I bought an asada and two pastor tacos. They are small street style tacos. I wanted Buche but they were out of that meat. The asada was made with diesmillo and not ranchera cuts of beef. It was thick and tough most likely from overcooking or recooking previously prepped meat. The flavors was just ok and probably needs more marinating. The pastor is the ground chopped up style meat you find at Cardenas and not cut from a turntable style roasted pork. The flavor wasn't the best but it's still edible if you're hungry. I really wouldn't pay $9-10 for these tacos. $1.50 would have been better and more accurate for them. Definitely won't be returning unfortunately. I had high hopes due to lake Elsinore lacking really good Mexican style food. But even then there are still better options for tacos in that price range. read more

Food for my event was scheduled for 5pm The very nice older lady and young gentleman arrived before 4:30 to set up unfortunately the lady was not feeling well, she could not even stand . Her helper asked for me to help him make the food and serve my guest because his "boss" asked him too ! He was very nice and honest to let me know he did not feel comfortable even turning on the grill . after listening to the phone call the older lady had with the boss "her niece" in were the young lady on the phone begged her to stay and work because she was going to loose money ! Not knowing I speak perfect Spanish I proceeded to have the young gentleman take the lady home . 8pm 2 young ladies arrived and got to work right away by this time of course half of the guest had left . However the few that were left mentioned the food was very good, presentation was not good at all especially for a catering service and a few guest mentioned how the young ladies shouldn't work with food in crop tops. I understand emergencies happen and no one expects to get sick . But as a business there should always be a back up plan ! I truly hope this was a learning experience for the business owner . Also hope the older lady is doing well . read more

Me and my wife gave their food truck a shot tonight. We ordered 3 asada burritos and one chicken quesadilla for us and our two kids. The service was fine, but the wait time was too long! over 30 minutes. At the time there was only one order in front of us and we can tell they had been there for a while. We paid $50 for our food which is on the pricier side and it was not worth the price. The asada was not seasoned at all and the chicken was over seasoned. Overall bland food and I hope they improve on it. read more

Tacos La Patrona - The asada burrito - Tacos Near Me - San Jacinto, California

10/10 do NOT recommend. They were at a MSJC football game and we waited the entire half time and 3rd quarter for 3 overpriced tacos, stove top cooked fries (where is the fryer. You literally could not hear any food being cooked) and a burrito. The carne asada fries in the picture are garbage. No flavor to the meat at all. Green sauce tasted like water. No customer service and no apologies for those who waited this long. They just call your number and close the window. They charge $1 more to use your card which most people do these days so that's crazy. You have to ask for forks and napkins because they don't give you any of that. Never again. Everyone was highly upset. read more

Tacos La Patrona - Gross fries - Tacos Near Me - San Jacinto, California

Food is horrible. Asada meat is more like a ground beef with no flavor. On the menu says "we have HANDMADE tortillas" but it didn't say you have to request it and pay extra .75 cents what a rip off. The quesabirria is very bland with 2 cents of cheese, and the salsas has no flavor Don't waste your money here! read more

Truly amazing food and would highly recommend them #hidalgoinc The family love the food! read more

Slow to take orders, slow to receive order, not great customer service, overpriced, and food wasn't that good. Very disappointed to blow $40 on a burrito, 5 small street tacos, rice and beans, and a lemonade. read more

The food had no flavor and neither did the green salsa. You can totally taste the preservatives in the tortillas. I will never eat this garbage that they have the audacity to call Mexican food. read more

This review is for their food truck (not the actual establishment). I tried the azada, al pastor, cabeza, and birria tacos here and all meats were flavorful. I do feel that tacos are extremely small. Service was extremely slow! I waited close to 20 minutes for a total of 8 tacos. My total for 8 tacos came out to $24. Tacos came with salsa, cilantro and onion (in very limited portions). Very disappointed that no peppers, radishes, cucumber or grilled onions were offered on the side (like good traditional taqueros do). read more

Absolutely rude, refused to fix our order after they got it wrong. Slow service, food is bland. Tortillas are terrible. Find another place.

Wish i would have seen these reviews before hand. There was a roach in my food.. so disgusting.... save your money and go somewhere else

Very rude. We asked for tacos with no onions. She gave us the cilantro mixed with onions. We asked for an exchange or refund. She said we were exaggerating about the onions and she would not refund us any money. I am allergic to onions my throat closes up. Tacos were dry with no flavor. Food was reheated at best. I would not recommend this place and would never go back to it. Horrible service and bad tasting bland food. read more

Tacos La Patrona - 2 tacos de asada, 1 quesa birria, with agua de pina. - Tacos Near Me - San Jacinto, California

My daughter hired them to come cater her baby shower, the girl showed up alone so we had people helping her to set up, I'm not sure what the original number of people my daughter told this girl but she ran out of carne asada within the first 20 minutes of being there then told us that we were all limited to 3 tacos because she was running out out of food. Once she was done, our guests once again helped her to break down her stuff and take it to her car, that's when she decided to tell my daughter that it was going to be an additional $150 because the guest list was more than what was originally told to her. I explained to her that if she calculated that she had to cook more meat then she should've stopped and consulted with my daughter first before continuing but she couldn't understand that concept, maybe because she doesn't understand how to run a business but unfortunately for her, I own a restaurant and I understand the business well.She began to argue with my daughter who's 8 1/2 months pregnant calling her "girl" and was telling my niece to hit her. She tells me that she needed extra money for having to work alone which was not our problem, we gave her an extra $100 to leave as she was still running her mouth and provoking my niece to hit her. The el pastor was under cooked and as a result of that I got sick. I have hired taco trucks over the years and this by far as the worst experience ever, DO NOT HIRE THESE PEOPLE! There are so many options out there, do not consider these unprofessional people unless you want to get charged extra and might get challenged to a fight. read more

Went there for the first time and tried the carne asada tacos and they were terrible, every bite had too much fat you literally couldn't even chew it. And honestly way too pricey for such little tacos, it was my first and definitely my last time going there. read more
