El Patron 417 State Road, Croydon, PA 19021

"Absolute best Mexican food. Victor and his family are so friendly and amazing chefs. Since we found this hole in the wall, we don't even bother with any other place. There's no point. This place is the best. Their Red Hot sauce is top 5 for all the spice heads. Must go!"

"Ordered and used Uber.. ordered Birria and something else when the food got to us it was cold. How we get the Birria but no consume , cilantro or onion to dip the Birria called the restaurant complained the guy said he will see what he can do then hangs up the phone. Waited 10 minutes called back same guy says I have to wait for owner now it’s 12:30pm I ask what time will he come in and call he says after 3pm. I told him I have to wait until 3 to eat!!?! Wow the customer service sucks! He said he would return my money I’m still wait for that and the “call by the owner/manager. It is the responsibility of the person packing the food to go out for delivery for all items pertaining to the food to be bagged. First time ordering & last.. sorry! Horrible service!!!"

"El Patron shines through for its authentic Mexican cuisine in the heart of Croydon. It features all your classic dishes like tacos Al Pastor, Burritos, Soaps and more. Great little spot if you're looking for real authentic Mexican. Staff here is friendly and welcoming."

"I tried this location twice. First time food was good and the service was ok. The female didn’t seem too friendly.I liked the tacos and the salsas. The chips are fresh and made well. Some Mexican restaurants out here don’t offer free chips. Enchiladas were alright. I really wanted to try the Menudo so I went back. Was a bit disappointed. The service the second time was excellent. I wanna say it was the owners son. He was very energetic and welcoming. I’d def go back to try more food. I like that it’s a family owned business."

"I was craving guacamole, so we decided to stop in here for a menu. We ended up leaving with dinner. We ordered take away. It took us longer to look through the menu and place our order than it took for them to prepare our meals. We were absolutely blown away by how amazing this food was. So much so that I went back the following day for dinner (take away). The first night we got a veggie burrito, it was so big that I had to weigh it, 1 lb 9.4oz!!! I had also had a taco salad with shredded beef. When I tell you, it wasn't a "salad" as far as I know salad. It was absolutely loaded with everything delicious, but not a ton of lettuce. I ordered it with shredded chicken the following night. Their chicken enchiladas (red) are phenomenal, and so are their cheese fries. Everything was so fresh and delicious. I'm happy that this place is within walking distance, I just wish I had known about it sooner! I'd like to eat inside one day, it's so cute inside. I highly recommend this place! They have all of my future Mexican food business."
