El Patron Bar & Grill

Best food around, period. This place is a staple for all the surrounding neighborhoods,. The Owner is amazing, the service is unmatched and going to eat here is like going to a friend's house. Do yourself a favor and make El Patron's a regular place to relax and enjoy!

We have enjoyed our food here on several ocassions. They can handle larger parties without a problem. Very accomodating staff and excellent service. Food comes out quickly, and is always excellent quality. Nice they give you salsa, verde and bean dip on the table. Margaritas can be hit and miss, but otherwise, no complaints.

This is by far the best Mexican restaurant around here, nowhere else comes close. The food is higher quality compared any other restaurant, and the pricing is amazing. It is also very generous that you get red and green salsa as well as bean dip to begin with. This is the only place I trust to get amazing food everytime and I hope they are forever here to stay

Extremely fast service for everything, drinks, food, and even our dessert that we got after we were given our bill. The prices are great and they have great chips with great salsa. They bring a good homemade tomato-based salsa with slight spice, a verde salsa with a lime base, and a bean dip to your table before you even order. The only problem we had was I ordered a top shelf frozen margarita and it came on the rocks instead of frozen, but everything else was extremely fast and tasted amazing. We even got an extra bowl of bean dip with extra chips at no additional charge. We will definitely be back within the next two weeks.

Wife & I were looking for a Mexican restaurant late in the evening when I found El Patron Bar & Grill. They were opened when everyone else was closed. The atmosphere was immediately welcoming as we were greeted with smiles and seated quickly. Drinks & appetizers were ordered and brought quickly. After ordering our meals, we didn't have to wait long. The food was brought on hot plates and was fantastic! We needed no to-go boxes but ordered a soup to go, and they gave us a quart of their Mexican soup!! It was smiles all around. The next day we shared the soup and like everything else, was awesome!! Highly recommended restaurant!

El Patron has always been a great dine in option for me in Helena. I’ve been there at least 10 times and have always had excellent service and food. I usually get the steak or shrimp fajitas for lunch. That along with the chips, salsa and complimentary bean and cheese dip make for a very filling and delicious meal. The staff are also very friendly and helpful. I’ll continue to make it a regular on my lunch/dinner rotation.

Had a girls night here it was so good and atmosphere is very friendly . The host was so helpful with such a great smile and attitude. Will definitely be coming back .

We have been regulars here for 14 years now and never once a bad meal! When family comes to Helena to visit they KNOW what we are having for dinner! ❤

The bean dip, tomatillo and salsa all served as complimentary are fantastic! Also, the grilled chicken tacos trump the shredded.chocken tacos- take my word for it!

Fantastic authentic Mexican food, the people were friendly, the food came quick, the salsa and bean dip were phenomenal, should've come here way earlier. They'll definitely see me back!

My favorite local Mexican restaurant!!! This is always where we go when we want Mexican food. Fast, friendly service, excellent food, great atmosphere!

Fast, friendly and delicious! Portion sizes are generous. If you leave there hungry, it's your own fault.

The service was amazing! Super fast and helpful staff. Food was great, took less than 3 minutes to reach the table. If I lived here year round, I would be a regular. Very happy and would recommend to everyone!

This is one of our favorite casual restaurants in the area. The food is good, the service is good, and the price is right. Great place for families or a casual date night.

We stumbled upon this place one day and it is our go to restaurant now. The salsa can be quite hot (spice) but the bean dip with a splash of queso keeps the kids happy.

Such incredible food and atmosphere. Since you walk in you are greeted with smiles and food is quick and authentic

Our go to Texmex in the area. Have not been disappointed with the service or food as of yet. Great visit again in August 2023.

Nice people, fresh food, good prices, our favorite Mexican restaurant. I like the chicken tamal and tostada.

So so good me and my wife could eat here everyday and we love the service !!

We always have fantastic service here. The food is delicious.

A fun local Mexican place. Food is good. Quick. It can be busy on Friday nights.
