El Patron Restaurant reviews
16It's really good, had to get it to go though because we got here late. Will visit again!
The place is clean but the food is terrible. What I ate was some steak sopes but the tortilla was submerged in the fryer and that was dripping with oil. In addition to that, the meat tasted like pure bait. I don't know if the owners are Mexican or from another country wanting to sell Mexican food. I have nothing against other nationalities but I think that one looks for some flavor of their land and in this restaurant there is no Mexican flavor or food
The best tacos I've ever had! Such friendly and fast service! My new favorite lunch spot.
It's been a few years since we've been back since moving away. Food was amazing, lost cost compared to everywhere else and authentic, reminds of home cooked meals. They do their own baking and the tres leches is amazing, everything was delicious. After the years we were extremely glad they are still top quality and beats the other places in the valley on quality and cost and better then the places down by Philly we used to frequent.
First time eating here and I was referred by a friend and the food is good. I ordered the steak chimichanga and the portion was satisfying and taste really good. I couldn't eat it all because I was stuffed lol. I hope too see this restaurant make it big!
Incredible Mexican food made by people that genuinely care! I’d argue that it’s definitely among the best in the valley for low key dinners. Definitely recommend the chimichanga
5 star restaurant. If you are looking for authentic Mexican food at a low price, this is it. Don’t look any further! I was hardcore craving chicken enchiladas with rice and refried beans, and El Patron’s dish hit every spot. The lovely lady taking orders was so warm and inviting, and she asked me questions to make sure I didn’t have any allergies and would be okay with some spice. I totally recommend this gem of a restaurant in Allentown! I drove fairly far to get to it, and it was worth every mile! Do it! (I took this picture after a few bites because I couldn’t wait to dive in!)
Had the steak tacos as well as the chicken tacos. The meat was SOOOO dry it was like eating a Popeyes biscuit with NO DRINK. Swallowing just a bite of the taco was a risk to my life. It was disgusting how dry, unflavored, and overcooked the meat was. I can’t believe this place has over 4 stars…. BECAUSE WHERE? It’s giving: : low vibrational! Don’t serve low quality eats to your community, we truly deserve better than this.
I'm not sure if there's been a recent change in the kitchen staff or if they've altered the recipe, but I've been ordering the quesadilla for the past two years and I'm disappointed to say that I won't be doing so anymore. The steak lacks any discernible taste, which is a real shame.
This restaurant has the best Mexican food out there. There bakery makes such good cakes as well. Everyone should definitely check this place out if you haven’t.
Great place, I really liked the food and the horchata. I will go back.
La carne asada esta muy rica.
I tried the el patron fajitas and they were very good.
Service was also good.
I recomend this restaurant.
Wonderful food! I used to live I. The southwest US and it reminded me of Mexican restaurants in Arizona. The verde enchiladas are amazing.
Food was okay but I dislike that they always have music on blast and then the speaker is right we're you order wich makes it hard to order other people asked to put music down but they did not, I usually order and take out and for some reason food is never ready when I arrive mind you I arrive at the time I am told the food will be ready since I have a toddler that is very impatient
Here they prepare some cakes Godssss delicious, since I found out about the place I only buy there, they also have additional desserts such as dulce de leche, dulce de coco, bread pudding, and more, the many who serve are a love and The lady of the cakes, Doña Ramona, don't even mention it, they are cakes made with love, yes sir.
