The chipotle sauce had the perfect amount of cream and spices. The chicken was well seasoned and cooked to a tender perfection. My wife ordered the Quesadilla Fajita. The Fajita was ginormous. She ate almost half. She ate the other half for lunch the following day and the flavors marinated that she said it was even better the next day. The salsa and chips were tasty. Service was great and the location was clean. We both enjoyed the wall art!

What a great experience we had a El Patron Grill! Honestly, this wasn't our first pick but due to…read morethe situation I'm glad we ended up here. We came for a weekday lunch on a rainy day. When we arrived we were sat immediately and were probably the 5th table in the good sized restaurant. Our waiter arrived and took our drink orders quickly. It took a few more minutes before he came back to take our food order. While the menu is pretty large it is not huge. That's good IMO because they understand what each dish takes better. My Michelada was excellent! I don't mean because of the showy shrimp and cucumber with Chamoy and Tajin. I mean it was one of the best ones I've ever tasted and I've had a lot. Our food came out and was really good. I got Chipotle Chicken which came on a sizzling platter with a chipotle cheese sauce, onions and peppers, and rice on the side with tortillas. Lip smacking'! I asked for some home made hot sauce as well. It was pretty good but due to the amount of tomatillos in it I found it a tad bit too tangy. The others in my party were apparently happy with their meals because all of their food was gone. If driving through Elizabethtown or vacationing at White Lake and have a taste for Mexican, stop by El Patron and leave full and happy.

I've eaten here several times over the last year both dine in and takeout. It has always been hit…read moreor miss. Sometimes it has been really good while other times there were issues. The last few takeout orders have been rather disappointing and the most recent order was a total disappointment. The tacos I ordered this time were very skimpy. They also neglected to include my rice and beans and other side items that accompany the tacos. The other dish that was ordered for my wife did have her rice and beans but when I tasted the beans I was glad I didn't get any. They had a badly burnt taste indicating they had burnt severely in the pot and they had salvaged what they could with no regard for what they might taste like. We also had the beef dip which has queso, but it was bland, thin and watered down. It appears that this restaurant is going downhill fast. It's a shame to see the decline in quality at a restaurant, that at times has been really good.

Went this past weekend as a group for our work retreat, we had a group of 20. The restaurant was so…read morecute and the decorations really tied the restaurant in with the cuisine. The food was a 10/10 I got the ACP and it was delicious and plated nicely. Even though we booked days in advance with a reservation of 20 people, unfortunately the staff was not well prepared. We arrived at 5:40pm, everyone did not receive their drinks until 6:15 and had to ask someone to take our order at 6:30. By 7 we had to also ask for our appetizer as we still had not received it and we did not receive our food until 7:30. We also had to flag down our waiter/waitress throughout the dinner in order to get refills and ended up not leaving until 8:20 as we had to wait for our check as well. Even though the food is good we will not be coming back because they were definitely not prepared for a group. Additionally some of our meals came out cold and we realized after we had cut or bitten into the food, the waiters took it back and you could tell it had been microwave as the same cuts were still in the food. After waiting almost 2 hours for our food it surely should not have come out cold.

Our drinks were delivered quickly but it did take a long time for our orders to arrive. I got chicken and beef fajitas with beans and rice and salad ( lettuce , a little cheese and tomato ). My grandson got a chicken taco with beans and rice and a empanada. My daughter got a chicken sandwich with fries. Mine was just warm, not hot. The beans were different than most places but they were ok. My grandson did not eat more than two bites of the taco. I have never seen him do that before. He just didn't like it, even after we put salsa on it to try and improve it. Luckily my daughter had a big serving of fries and my grandson are most of them. They were the best thing we had. We had fried ice cream for dessert and that was just ok as well. Our first waiter was great, checked on us several times but then disappeared. The second girl was just like opposite. We had to ask to order the ice cream.... And we waited a long time before asking. The place is decorated beautifully and the booth was comfortable. There is a large parking lot for parking.
