Excellent tacos, rice and beans, and street corn! My guests raved about the food! I would have La Patrona back in a heartbeat! Watch out for the salsa - they are both spicy!

I want to give 3 stars for the fact that my order was 20 minutes later than my “pick up” time. But the sandwiches were so good that I’m giving 4 stars. If my food would have been 5 minutes later or less, I would have given 5 stars. Love supporting a veteran owned business.

Both the signature burger and mushroom/swiss burger were awesome. The bun and also the lettuce sub bun were great. Good fries as well.

Chicken was hot and fresh. Love the thin breading on the pieces. Best fries I've had in a long time... crispy in fresh oil. Definitely a do-over.
