Tacos El Patron

Brian Boyd

My buddy and I were looking for a good taco place near home. I have driven past this place many times but always on the way somewhere at the time. So my buddy read a review about Tacos El Patron and called me on Saturday to see if I wanted to check it out. WOW, what a fantastic place! Food was outstanding, prices were fair for the excellent quality and taste. Loved the neighborhood feel. The owner and the staff were incredibly welcoming, friendly, attentive to our needs and we genuinely felt welcomed. THIS PLACE IS FANTASTIC…. What was really ironic this place has two sister locations in the Bay Area. When the owner was talking to us, come to find out my buddy, Jeff had eaten at one of the places while traveling out there. What a small world. Don’t be like me and keep driving by. You owe it to yourself to stop in. Place is AWESOME! . Thank you Tacos El Patron. I took some takeout home and my family loved it. We all will be back soon!

**Tacos El Patrón – A Must-Try Hidden Gem in Houston!** I recently visited Tacos El Patrón in Houston, and wow—what a fantastic find! The food here is so unbelievably good, I almost can’t find the words to explain it. The flavors are bold, authentic, and expertly crafted, making every bite a memorable experience. The restaurant provides a unique take on traditional tacos by representing different cities—Mexico City, Baja California, and beyond—each taco showcasing a distinct regional flavor. It's a brilliant concept that brings variety and cultural depth to the menu. I was recommended the **birria taco** and the **pork belly taco**, and they were so delicious, I had to order two more! The birria was rich and flavorful, while the pork belly had the perfect balance of crispy and tender textures. Beyond the food, the **service is excellent**, the **cleanliness is impeccable**, and the **atmosphere is warm and welcoming**. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, making the dining experience even better with their exceptional customer service. If you're a taco lover—or just someone who appreciates amazing food—Tacos El Patrón is a spot you don’t want to miss. I’ll definitely be coming back again!

Food was great and the dessert was very good. Quite place to enjoy the food with your family 😊. Birria was the best 👌. I'm putting 4 star because the nopales weren't so good. But the rest 10/10

The best restaurant I’ve eaten in Houston so far, the food is soooo good, not a single complaint. Even the flan was amazing! My favorite though was the Tortilla Margarita, even though it sounds different it is a must try!!! There are some other flavors I looks forward to trying but that will be my new go to!! Also need to add the customer service was top notch, the owners were so nice & you could tell they took so much pride in what they did!

We decided to try a new spot for authentic tacos, tacos el patron did not disappoint. The tacos are on point, the sauces given have a spice profile for everyone. We do not have one negative thing to say. The restraunt vibe is nice as well. Don't forget an aqua fresca, we had the cucumber (pepino) lime. We will be back to try more items off the menu!
