We went to this restaurant for Christmas Eve and had dinner. The dishes were good served with plenty of food and the flavor on each were delicious and authentic. I highly recommend this restaurant for their authentic Mexican food, recommend the carnitas tacos and the steak tacos as well, Thank you Patronas for the service and the delicious food, we will come back to visit you even though we live in south Florida.

Las Patronas Mexican Restaurant has recently opened in an older and somewhat decrepit shopping plaza on the corner of University Boulevard and Dean Road. Walking in, the place does have an overall pleasant vibe and we were seated pretty quickly.We went over the menu and I ended up going with the birria tacos. I also had a chorizo taco. They also brought us chips and salsa. My birria tacos were pretty good and most of my party thought that the food was decent to good. The menu was a bit weak and the service, sadly, was not the best. In fact, it was pretty abysmal. She was not rude or anything, but she was unattentive and seemed rather distracted. She also made an error and overcharged us and kind of was not letting it go. We had four adults and one child and she was trying to charge us for five adult soft drinks and a children's juice. I tried to tell her that she overcharged us and she was refusing to accept it. She finally relented, but still it should have been easier.All in all, it is a newer restaurant and I hope that they work out the kinks. With the bad service, I will give it four stars.

Taste: 5/5Value: 4/5Ambiance: 5/5Las Patronas is a hidden gem. The restaurant is small but vibrant, giving you a lively setting to enjoy your meal. Great place to check out if you're looking for some authentic Mexican food and a colorful atmosphere. Everything was delicious and very good portion sizes. Free chips and salsa were a nice touch that we fully enjoyed. Our server was very friendly and got our food out quickly, even though we came during the dinner rush. Overall, great spot to check out and enjoy a tasty meal. Warning: The server did tell us beforehand, but be warned that there is a 3% charge if you decide to pay by card.

We were in the area early to celebrate the life of a close friend. This place was suggested by Yelp so we ventured in. Initially it was hard to locate. There is a number of construction projects occurring. We were told that this is a new restaurant as they were previously known as a food truck. The food was fantastic. I ordered the Biarra Tacos Excellent flavor .

3-3.5/5Little Mexican restaurant in the old Naroodle spot. Loved the decor inside it gave the cozy vibe of sitting outside a cafe in Mexico. The lady who I presume is the owner was so friendly and nice. We came for Taco Tuesday where they had tacos for $1. It seems like they change the selection and today's was ground beef and pulled chicken.We ordered ground beef tacos, birria tacos ($3) and elote. The ground beef was quite good and tender although the tortilla broke on me twice. The birria was pretty good but could use a bit more sauce. The elote was yummy and creamy ($5.99). The tacos are a bit small but for a $1 it's definitely not a bad price. Tacos are yummy and cheap and the staff is nice. Noticed that we didn't get chips and salsa like other tables but I think it might be because we didn't get entrees. Nothing super special but for that price and the ambiance, would def come again next Taco Tuesday.

Came to this place because we were craving "Mexican" food and read the good reviews. We ordered the following: Enchiladas with pulled beef: Nothing extraordinary. Flautas: Nothing extraordinary. Chorizo Chicken: It was ok. Tasteless rice. We ordered the Michelada after one sip we asked the server we wanted something else so we ordered a sprite. Even though, we had one sip and the michelada was returned; we still were charged for the michelada. When asked the server why we were being charged, she said "you ordered it" (in a not friendly way). This was the first time that we order a drink that we don't like and we still get charged, event though, we had one sip. **Be mindful you'll be charged about $2 fee for using your credit card.We will not be coming back.

Their $1 taco special is fabulous. I would highly suggest visiting on Tuesdays to try their tacos. The service was great. Go early to get a table. They fill up fast.

Located at the corner of University and Dean, this charming spot is tucked away. Walking in there was music playing and I loved the bright colors inside. Our servers were friendly and welcoming. We went on Taco Tuesday where they have 4 options for $1 tacos! I tried both pork options (carnitas and cochinita). Both were amazing! The cochinita was marinated in orange juice (I'm not the biggest fan of orange juice) but the flavors were delicious! I also ordered the house margarita which was purple! I tried the supreme nachos and the guacamole and everything was amazing! I can't wait to go back!

PSA...Take cash or be charged an extra 3% for using a DEBIT CARD!!! We've been on the hunt (for more than a year) for Mexican food that is so yummy, we want to keep coming back. I can't say that this is the spot, but it was good. The vibe is colorful, but a very tiny space. Mostly empty, except for one person when we arrived. There were some items that were tasty and items that were just meh. I usually judge a restaurant by how delicious their rice and beans are. Then I move onto the entrées. Rice and beans were both very uninteresting and bland. The rice just tasted like white rice. On the flip side, the Pollo Chorizo dish was delicious! The chorizo was not greasy and had great flavor. Especially since it sat on top of a delicious queso and pounded chicken breast. I was super interested in trying their Birria tacos, along with their chicken mole. The waitress said I couldn't have a side of the Birria gravy, nor could I have mole on my enchilada if I ordered the combo plate. So I opted for the 4 combo tacos. I asked about Birria gravy for that one taco. She finally relented and gave me a side of it. She said she would charge me a dollar but instead it was $2.99. Def not tasty at all. I will say the Tripas taco was the best one of the 4. Perfectly cooked, with a bit of crunch, and a bit of chewy. I also tried the Conchita, the Carnitas, along the Tripas and Birria ones. Finished off with the fried ice cream. Delicious! Their chips and salsa were just the right amount of heat for this little sissy. My husband got the spicier salsas and enjoyed them. Skinny margaritas were too sweet to finish. Went to pay with my debit card and had no idea they were going to charge an extra 3% for using a cash debit card. Honestly, this is probably the reason we will not return. Last minute up charge pricing is not my thing. No heads up, no info on the menu regarding this up charge. If it was on the menu, it was hidden pretty well. Moving on. There are literally hundreds of places to try.
