El Patron serves up the best carne asada tacos in town. Excellent flavor with quick grab-and-go service — and if you’d rather stay, there’s a cozy dine-in option too.

The absolute best tacos I’ve ever had. Stopped there on our way home from Orlando and I will now be making a trip back from Spring Hill to Dade City just for these tacos! And the staff was so friendly, really treated us like old friends.

Tacos were excellent. We got rained out of our hike and decided to visit the various taquerias in the Dade City and Zephyrhills area. So we went around and ordered one chicken and one carnitas at each place. El Patron had the best tacos of the 4 places we tried. Tender carne and excellent tortillas.

I tried three different beef filled tacos, one was better than the next…. Coupled with a delicious nut bar for dessert and jarritos soda my lunch with my colleague was delightful

Best carne asada taco I’ve ever had in my life. Authentic Mexican grocery and taquería I stumbled upon while taking a Sunday drive, I had to turn around to check it out.

Great Food, great service, friendly people. Home made style tacos. Mexican drinks! And aguas frescas. If a place called them self Mexican restaurant and don’t serve Mexican beverage is not real Mexican restaurant What I like the most is the Mexican Pan.

I’ve been driving by this restaurant for over a year meaning to stop in. I finally made the time to do so yesterday and was quite pleased.
It’s the type of restaurant you’d expect to find in small local town with the owner greeting you and asking what he can get for you.
Not much to look at, but like I said it’s a local place like you might find in a Mexican village. Good food!
I told him I needed to get something to eat and drink. The menu was hand written and without my glasses hard to read so he went through the menu until I stopped him at burritos.
Make this short, I think his mother was cooking and she made me a wonderful beef, bean, rice burrito that you only get from a traditional Mexican mother that’s doing the cooking.

This place never disappoints. It’s my go-to place for any occasion. Very family oriented and very professional. I enjoy the variety of options I have and the food is very authentic and always spot on.
Especially where I come from, it’s hard to find real authentic Mexican food at a reasonable price. El Patron is not expensive but very reasonable. I honestly think El Patron is slept on. People do not know how good it really is.

I am a huge Mexican food critic. I’ve only been there once their steak torta was the best I’ve had and all of Tampa including Plant City and St Pete not to mention their tamales were on point. I will definitely be visiting more often.
