Cozy Mexican restaurant with a full bar specializing in fajitas & hefty burritos.

Lunch again at the restaurant. I sat at the bar and had a great interaction with Jess. The food was fresh and excellent. Atmosphere and music level was great. Love this place!

The food and service was great. They do offer a large selection including some routine selections as well as more authentic style food if you feel adventurous for something new/different. We plan on returning soon.

Food was delicious, and the staff were friendly and informative of better deals that provide more bang for your buck. Our waitress was always checking on us to make sure everything was to our liking. Parking was definitely an issue because it is such a popular place but you can just park across the street. Will definitely be back!

We had excellent service from Mi Lupita for our daughter’s wedding reception. When we discovered that we had underestimated how much food we originally ordered for our guests, Mi Lupita was there to help us. Within 20 minutes we had plenty of food. They helped me out when I was stressed beyond belief. Thank you for your prompt, friendly service and delicious food!!!

Food is great but we’ve ordered food to go 4 times from their new location and had issues with 3 out of the 4 times. We always have to drive back and there is no compensation once so ever. I wouldn’t expect anything if it happened every once in a while but 75% of our orders is pretty ridiculous. Wasted gas, time, food for atleast one person is cold by the time they get back home and we miss out on eating as a family. Then when we call all we get is “Oh, well uh.. do you want to come back?”

Mi Lupita is officially in their new location in Ballwin!
We ordered the brand new margarita flights- the Traditional Flight which was the House, Pepe’s, and Cadillac
and the Flavored Flight, which was Strawberry, Prickly Pear, and Mango. All were incredible!
We got the shrimp and chicken fajitas, it came out sizzling and was so good, tasted so fresh!
We also ordered Enchiladas Banderas, three enchiladas, beef with red sauce, chicken with queso and pork with green sauce.
Everything was delicious! We came on opening day and the service was flawless! This location will be a staple in West County for years to come!!

First time here for a Hobby Club Holiday Party. Food, service and Atmosphere all were excellent. Very impressed how busy a Monday evening was with Patron6. That in itself indicated to me that food must be really good. Will be going there again when in the area.

This is a popular place with indoor and outdoor seating. The folks here were nice and attentive. The food looked and smelled good, and was very tasty. The only issue was the top shelf margaritas. It was plenty strong, but it didn’t taste great, but if you squeeze the lime and orange into it, it helps. The food and atmosphere definitely deserves the 5 stars.

UPDATE : I will leave my old review , But I must say we have been several times since opening new location and its been disappointing every time except at lunch. Tonight was carry out and it was terrible. Steak fajitas were mainly veggies very little steak, they forgot bean dip said I didn’t order, had nothing but broken chips and only a handful , , the Sophia was just the shell no honey no cinnamon. I called and the girl who answered was rude and very aggressive and almost combative. I have a suggestion…. carry out should maybe be taken in a room so employee can hear the order. And some of these problems would go away. It’s a shame this was our favorite. Good luck
Great food , was busy but was seated very fast . All the employees were very nice . The margaritas were really good . The only suggestion I would have is to put napkins on the table . Mexican food is messy . But this will be a family favorite. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed ❤️
