El Patriota #1

I have wanted to try this place for a couple of years. Their hours are short in the evenings so the timing just never seemed to align but we finally went for lunch today and we were not disappointed!! These sandwiches are great, and the bread is excellent. I love that the pork and chicken aren't just sliced thin like an afterthought, the pieces are hearty. The quesito (croissant with cream cheese, sugar glaze poured over top) is delicious. I normally hate cream cheese baked, but these are great and the simple sugar glaze they add right before they give it to you makes it special. This place is close to my house, and the sandwiches are actually really affordable compared to other special sandwich shops in the H-E-B area. We will definitely be back soon for lunch!

Was our first time, the lady that took our order provided excellent service and gave us suggestions on what was on the menu. We got the Patriota sandwich and a few empanadillas with natural juice of parcha (passion fruit) . There was an event going on in the parking lot so the ambiance was very tropical. Was a great experience! Definitely I suggest you try. Puerto Rican Food.

Our goal in dining out is to locate new and exciting foods with different flavors than we have experienced before. We accomplish this by dining at El Patriota #1. When we arrived we approached the order counter. When the cashier discovered that we were first timers, she was excited to recommend a limited time and new dish- Ham, brown rice with beans and cassava, with a side salad. My sponsor selected that dish. I selected the El Patriota sandwich. They recommend a small bag of chips to accompany the sandwich. We selected dessert for take home - Guava croissant and Quesito. The flavors were very deep with a mixture of seasoning that was unique to Cuba and Puerto Rico. The experience was very enjoyable and we were delighted with the flavors.

...been there a few times and it is always hard to decide wether to have a Pastrami sandwich or their signature sandwich "El Patriota". I have tried their harina de maíz (corn meal) and it is really good. You actually get the feeling of being in a Panadería back in PR.

Absolutely fantastic top quality food. Not quite like anything Iv had before and pleased that this place is in my area. Now it's a regular for me and I'm kinda bad about being close minded on food choices but this place is great. Easy 5 star for me. Clean, staff is awesome, and most importantly the food is amazing. A meal I remember and want again.

Ordered the Cuban sandwich and quesitos and it was delicious. The pork was very tasty and along with the ham, cheese and the bread perfectly toasted, made me feel like I was back at Calle Ocho in Miami eating this Cuban sandwich. Wish they had sides for the sandwiches, such as plantain chips, which I added myself at home. This is a small location but they have made the most out of their space and accommodated quite a bit of chairs and tables. Definitely a place I will recommend and keep going back to.

Went there for lunch before Christmas. I am not a sandwich fan - but this place is a rare exception for me. The sandwich was expertly made and the French fries were fantastic. It is going to be a regular lunch spot for us.

Todo estuvo delicioso, el servicio fue rápido, el lugar muy limpio y el personal amable. Ordené el plato patriota y superó mis expectativas, ¡definitivamente volveré!

Sandwich was decent, but just go to Weinberger for better. Counter guy was pretty rude taking our order. Fries were terrible. Cheese roll was $7 and horrible. I'll just have some Porto's shipped and bake it myself for less. Already overpriced and still charged extra for a "restaurant fee". Wdym "restaurant fee"?

I went here to get a tripleta but instead the guy recommended me a Patriota which supposed to have 4 kind of meat instead of 3.. so the sandwich didn't have nothing but lettuce and tomato little pieces of ham and just little pieces of chicken, where the biftec or pernil go?....I think this place is been sold by the owner.. There's no puertoricans working there now there's cubans... and as a puertorican don't go here you would be wasting your time. If I could give it 0 stars I would .By any chance someone knows if this place been sold to this people...And by the way prices are very high .. before tripletas were like 10.99 Now 14.99 ufff
