El Patron Mexican Restaurant

Atmosphere is great and the food is even better!! So much singing acts engaging with the customers. I love it. Oh yeah the desserts are awesome⭐⭐

The hubby and I stopped in for a quick date night 🌙 💓 I had the vegetarian fajitas, he had carnè asada street tacos 🌮 😋 The food was on point 🤤 BUT the drinks was LIT👌 Hubby had the blackberry mint margarita 🍹 and I had the octopus 🐙 sangria margarita😎 They are under new management, and the new female ♀💪 seems to really care about bringing new life into the restaurant, new menu items, changing decor, etc. They even have their own house tequila, which is a MUST try 💪 Last but not least, the staff are awesome 😉 😁🤩

Great food and friendly service. The both dishes we ordered are excellent. Chimichanga and tacos taste authentic Mexican. Thank you El Patron !!!!!

I believe if you follow your heart that road will lead you to tacos which led me to here. I sat down at the bar and it was a lovely atmosphere. They were very quick with the service a nice kind gesture of bringing out salsa and chips of course. Oddly enough I recognized it was my old neighbor. And heard how he cooked things and I got to experience it and let me tell you he's right . The food is wonderful the service was on point. Family operated and owned is just the best way to do things and he's nailing it. I always wanted to own a restaurant like this to be honest the way he's doing things is the way I can envision myself doing something like this. So if you're in the mood for great tacos or fajitas this is the place you would want to stop in and grab some good grub. Wonderful flavor great atmosphere tacos what more do I need to say for you to stop in and try something authentic flavor and a good time?

We had a big birthday party and we were well taken care of. Food was wonderful. Street tacos was on point

The best micheladas for real!! The flavors are exactly the same as Mexico, chingonada

Fast service , friendly staff , tasty dishes . 👍

The El Patron is under new management and I can't say enough good things about them!! Starting with the chips,and we did! They are fresh and even with a little salt! The salsa was not too hot. Just right! The gaugamole was perfect! I had a chili relleno and I haven't had one like that since home in New Mexico!!! Their margaritas are SO GOOD! The service is impeccable!!! I recommend you try it out! You will not be disappointed!!

One of the best Mexican restaurants we have ever eaten in. The service is super fast, the waiters are friendly and speak good English. The salsa is the best. They should brand it and sell it. The margaritas are the best we have had anywhere and reasonably priced. When you drink one of these you know there is real tequila in it.

Recently moved to Elyria and this was my first time here 12/11/23. I went in for lunch and ordered a Margarita and a chicken fajita quesadilla. Both were very flavorful and filling. I also tried their house made Tequila infused with fruit, boy oh boy was it strong. I started coughing with delight after one bite of the complimentary fruit the owner offered me. Guess I'm a light weight, Lol! I will definitely be back. Come check them out. You will not be disappointed.

My mother and I went here for a Summer afternoon lunch with intent to sit on the patio. It was a lovely experience! I had the carnitas plate and it was full of majestic flavor (or Sabor majestuso)!!!
My only suggestion is that the servers do a quick check/peek out into the patio area once every maximum of 10 minutes and make sure that everybody is taken care of.

Amazingly authentic Mexican cuisine, beans are amazing, fast friendly service. I will be dining here for now on for affordable and authentic Mexican food!

Fabulous! They are under new management and must have a new cook. The food used to be just okay, now it is great and very authentic. I had chips/salsa (fresh and perfectly spiced), rice (soft and hot), Tacos El Pastor (had chunks of pineapple). Perfect. My waiter Jorge was very attentive and personable. Best food I've found in the area.

Delicious shrimp and the service is amazing im definitely coming back

You MUST try the quesa-birria, if you’re into authentic & flavorful sauces. Two corn birria tacos with all the dressings. Not much spice, which is just right. A little side of their refried beans & rice, onions and cilantro on the side. This taste will have you hooked. Ask for an octopus with Tajín rim, and enjoy.

Have been coming to this restaurant for years. The changes these owners have made are incredible. In the past 3 years they've improved the food, made a new bar, and changed the whole atmosphere of the restaurant. Staff is incredibly friendly and I never leave unhappy. Always a great time here! Be sure to try their fresh squeezed margaritas!

Hello everyone! Ya know, I didn't rate this place very well the first time. But since I've been back, it's probably the best Mexican restaurant in this town (the only one)! The food is a little different, but it's tasty. The margaritas are great! Oh, and get one to go! You still might not get home!

I was recommended to stop here by a friend of mine. It was lunch time so my mom and I decided to order off the lunch menu. We were shocked at how large of portions the lunch fajita was. We did ask for some to go containers since it was so much food. The tortilla chips for fresh and the salsa was so authentic. The ambiance was so beautiful with the great traditional music at one point my mom was dancing in her seat. I couldn't recommend this place enough, the best around for sure.

Great food. Fish tacos so good. Bacon wrapped jalapenos amazing. Guava margarita is my new favorite

We had an excellent experience here last night. Food was probably the best mexican food I've ever had and my wife said the same thing. We got 2 different margs and both were great. Chips and salsa were very good as well. Can't wait to eat the leftovers today and go back again soon. Service was great as well.
