Looking for great Mexican food for yourself or out of town guests; El Patron is the place for traditional Mexican food! I am a repeat customer and have never been disappointed - the huge Shrimp Cocktail comes with premium shrimp, celery, diced onion, avocado chunks, etc. I also had the Camarones al Mojo de Ajo; shrimp with rice, beans and warm tortillas. We completed our order with the Two Shredded Beef Enchiladas and Two Shredded Chicken Enchiladas, both of which were also generously portioned and delicious. Our food was delivered hot and fresh, by a smiling, pleasant "Dasher", for an all-around great experience! We will DEFINITELY order from El Patron again in the future, and I highly recommend this "gem" tucked away in the Mira Mesa locale. Our compliments to the owners and staff for your great food and service, and your extensive menu choices!

I am sick and wanted a huge bowl of chicken soup. This was so yummy!! I love that it comes with Mexican rice and a huge tortilla. Great flavor and huge portion. Big enough for two portions. Door Dash guy was quick and handled my food with care. Thank you!

This is the best seafood soup I have eaten. The tilapia and the veggies were tasty. The salt was just perfect and the hot sauce paired well with it.
Portion was generous.
Will give you 5 stars. Can't thank you enough. Keep it up. Will order again.

Ordered a bean and cheese burrito (HUGE!), A hashbrown bfast burrito (HUGE!) and a shredded beef taco. Value was terrific and food exceptional. Portions were amazing and their salsas all terrific as well. Wish it was closer to home, but this is officially my new spot for Mexican food!

The surf and turf burrito at El Patron is massive and tastes delicious. It's one of the best values in taco shop food in the city. My wife and I split it. It's probably close to 15" long. It's excellent.
