Papusas were delicious. Nice crunch, good amount of filling and the veggies with the sauce were great. I'd skip on the tacos next time. We ordered some other sides too. I'd skip them all next time except for the yuca fries. The restaurant has plenty of seating and the outside hut seating was neat if it wasnt too hot outside. They have a huge treat bar too. Overall...definitely would return for their papusa.

I love this place, and you really have to come in here to check it out. Not only is it a…read morerestaurant, but they have a decent selection of traditional Hispanic medicines, which is odd considering it's a restaurant. I really enjoy the pupusas and the gorditas, and today we are trying the birria tacos. There is also a big selection of agua frescas. English is sporadic here but that's not really an issue,. Good food is good food. They also have a VIP club, so definitely worth signing up for it if you live close enough to be a regular.

I honestly was not sure if this place was still open. It's been a few months since the last person…read morereview -- and with COVID, you never know these days. As luck would have it, I had to run an errand near 249 and Spring Cypress. So, I thought I would swing by and get confirmation of the open status. As I drove around looking for this place, I came across an OPEN/FOOD sign near the street. This place is nestled between a few homes -- so if you aren't paying attention -- you will pass it. Having seen the pictures of the pupusas, I knew I would be going with a simple cheese pupusa. Be warned, you should stretch before you order one of these puppies. When I received my order, I went to my car to take the first bite -- I tore a piece off -- and pulled -- and pulled -- and pulled. It's not that it was difficult to break, but the CHEESE WAS SO PERFECT that it stretched farther than I could reach. I ended up having to break the cheese in the middle. As I ate the pupusa, the cheese told me that I would be coming back to this place again and again. My next challenge here is to stand outside and let me son pull half of the pupusa to see how far we can stretch the cheese. I'm betting that it will be at least jump rope length. If you are a cheese fan, you must try this place.

They serve seafood but the star of the menu is birria. I have never been to a place where you can get birria served so many ways. In tacos or a burrito of course, but also on a pizza, in ramen soup or with pasta. I ordered mine with linguine, accompanied by a horchata agua fresca and their tres leches cake. The birria pasta came with thin spaghetti rather than linguine that day, but I prefer spaghetti anyway so that was fine. The pasta was cooked perfectly. So was the birria--very tender and moist, with the juice providing a fine sauce for the pasta. Onions and cilantro optionally included--I had some and it was great. You get a huge portion that could be split two or even three ways, or save some for a future meal. It would reheat well. The tres leches cake was a very good example of one--it was attractively presented in a small cup, with a dense cream (Mexican crema? I think so) topping and a little caramel drizzle. The cake was well soaked and it was nice and sweet. Again, shareable. The horchata was served in a cute souvenir plastic cup. It had a cookie crumble rim put on with horchata syrup so you could drink it kind of like a salted tequila glass, but sweet. That presentation didn't quite work--it came with a lid that would not quite fit with the coating on, and it made the outside of the cup sticky. Good idea but maybe try something else. It cost $8, which made me want better execution. But that's a minor complaint. The people were very nice and the food was overall quite good, and you can't find anything else like it around here. Definitely worth coming out for a try. The Plaza De Los Food trucks continues to develop--the owners are in the process of adding quite a lot of covered seating, filling in part of the center area that really wasn't being used. It might have enough seating now to support the average of 10 food trucks that park there. But there still isn't enough parking, and I don't know what else they can do to fix that. Also wish it had a social media presence...

However, La Patrona is actual legit South American/mexican food. The inside was clean. The menus were easy to read and describes the items in English. We were seated at asked what we wanted to drink. They have Coke fountain drinks as well as aqua fresca, beer and a think some bottled drinks. I went with a Coke Zero. It was 10am so my foodie companion ordered the breakfast sandwich and I ordered a jalapeño con queso papusa. The papusa comes with the red sauce and the Cole slaw stuff. It was on point! So delicious and filled with queso that had a great cheese pull. The torta was on soft bread, stuffed full of meat, cheese and egg. It is served with a salsa verde and a habanero sauce in the bottles. The verde was tasty but certainly had a spicy kick. This place is going to be my new Sunday breakfast spot. It is so good and other items on the menu looked tasty as well. Oh and the best part, 2 drinks, papusa and sandwich was $20.
