El Patron 10040 Patriot Highway, Fredericksburg, VA 22407

"My husband and I have been going here for 8 years. We’ve never had an issue with food! It’s still good. Service has always been pretty decent. But, we’ve noticed it gradually getting worse over the last year. Last time we were there, they were not busy at all, maybe 5 tables. We ordered tacos. It literally took nearly 30 minutes for our tacos to get to us. We were sitting right where we could see where the food comes up at. Ours sat there for about 15 minutes before the waitress delivered it. It’s ok. It reflected in her tip and we won’t likely return to this location even though it’s just 5 minutes from our house. Miss the server Miguel! Best service always from him!"

"Had a great lunch this past Saturday. Frequent across the street more often but still stop by here from time to time. The large margaritas are only $15.00 which is cheaper and the shrimp cocktail is only $10.99 and the frozen lime marg that i had was strong, in a take-out cup, and had trouble finishing it due to the strength and size. the shrimp cocktail was absolutely off the hook. totally on point. best i've ever had and a steal at the price. the taco's were OK, not best ever or anything but the cocktail and margarita combo was a tough act to follow. it reminded me that i have to come here more often. a little lacking in atmosphere, could use a central bar."

"The service was fantastic, the food was delicious overall but I wish they had at least warmed the tortilla for the soft tacos. They seemed to be just out of the package. However the food was very flavorful and made up for that short comings. I had the Tacos Al Pastor and a friend had Burrito Jarocho which they greatly enjoyed."

"I was visiting a friend in Fredericksburg (from Alexandria), and he suggested El Patron. His wife had great things to say about the margaritas. Although a Peruvian woman, she told me that the food seemed "authentic." They were right! I had one small original margarita on the rocks. Strong and tasty. One of the best I've had in a long time. I had tacos de lengua (tongue). So tender. His wife had a whole fried fish (mojarra). I kept asking for pieces. Tasty! And lastly he had a very large burrito. I was the only one to finish a meal. Great time!"
