El Patron definitely hits the spot for me when it comes to fresh tasting and filling food. Ive had numerous burritos and Ive loved them all (Cant go wrong with the el patron burrito or mole fiesta burrito). Ive also gone for the half chicken which hit the spot. However, the thing that sticks with me time after time is how much I love their chips, be it paired with salsa or guacamole. I pretty much always have to get a chip order when I get food from here. I dont go out to each much, but when I do, I like to go around my own neighborhood. El Patron is a place that I not only love to go to, but it is also a place that I love to order delivery from maybe once a month. When I go in, Its usually to add a tasty margarita to the experience. Service has been excellent every time Ive been there, and the look and feel of the place coupled with the nice people that run the place dont make me feel like Im stepping into a pretentious and artificial establishment. For that reason, El Patron is at the top of places I like to go to in the neighborhood.

I ate here when it first opened and I wasnt impressed so I didnt go back for many months. Today I tried take-out. I ordered in person, a burrito, "No cheese, no dairy." The young woman at the counter said "So, vegan?" I said yes. I get all the way home with my burrito, take a bite and think to myself "This is delicious!" Why was it delicious? Because cheese is delicious and it had cheese in it. Why dont I eat cheese? Because it literally makes me sick. I call to ask for a replacement, I walk all the way back to pick it up. I tell the young woman I ordered from that she needs to take food allergies seriously and that Im going to feel sick for the rest of the day, the response was "Oh, sorry." Heres a clue about customer service: when your customer has an experience that bad, you offer them something for free so that they leave happy. They couldve offered to deliver my replacement instead of making me walk back, they couldve given me some chips and guac, or they could have just pretended to care.

While with a not so awesome guy, we went here to eat. This was about 5-6 years ago. I remember loving the food (burrito) and the drinks. Ive search for this place like my life depend on it since then. Flash forward to 2017 my gf and I are driving around looking for parking and what do I see? EL PATRON. I felt like a kid at christmas!! We walked in had the "el patron" burrito which I would recommend to anyone. Its a party in your mouth (if youre into that kind of thing) the margaritas are flavored and I would recommend them all. I will definitely go back and take more pics. Enjoy :)

Horrible service I ordered at the tabel and waited about 40 minutes once i inquired about my order they told me it never printed in the kitchen so i was waiting for nothing after i told them i cnt wait any longer they still tried to charge me for the entire meal. I was not happy with this service.

Very cozy but spacious place with a fire going on the cold night I was there. Service was good. Quesadilla, nachos and house made habanero sauce and flan were all excellent. Prices were reasonable and portions generous without going over the top. Really glad I stumbled upon this place.

great atmosphere, the burrito was so large I took 1/2 home cause the guacamole appetizer was so large and tasty I was pretty full. A hint, ask for some green sauce to add to the guac. if you like it spicy in a non-gringo way ;) had one frozen margarita, felt like a double shot.

The pulled pork taco was amazing, I will go back for tacos! Lunch tacos, drunk tacos, midmorning snack tacos! However, avoid the margaritas.. I love a good margarita to wrap up the work day. But I highly questioned if booze was present when all I tasted was sour mix and lime.

If you have traveled to or lived in Mexico, youll know that while the mole is good, its not authentic. The restaurant sweetens it so their customers will eat it. I ordered a michelada which isnt on the menu. It was decent, but totally not worth the $9 they charge.

Was a nice spot to stop for lunch/brunch. The homemade guacamole and chips were excellent. The huevos rancheros were made with scrambled eggs instead of over easy which I would have changed if Id known. Overall the food was good and portions were generous.

Ive been coming here for a minute, and I cant get enough. Im not sure you can order wrong here. Most of the time theres no room for dessert, but when there is, the flan is wonderful. And the best part? Full bar begins this Friday!

Always a friendly welcome from sisters/co-owners Ana and Brenda, with all the classics and good margaritas! Im especially fond of the spicy shrimp quesadilla and the fish tacos.

Good Mexican food, welcoming owners and staff. El Patron and the bar next door occupy the little-changed and comfortable former Lincoln Park Tavern/Cafe Enduro spaces.
