Tacos El Patron

Tacos el Gordo who? If you're looking for something just as good, maybe even better than tacos el Gordo. Come here and try all the types of tacos, burritos, mulitas, etc. 9.2/10, they are the only tacos that I can eat without any sauce just because they are that good. The only thing you need to throw on any item is the cilantro and onions. Service is super quick.The only downside about the place is the parking is super limited! So be prepared to wait for parking or have someone run in and grab your food, especially on the weekends! Always crowded!

A friend recommended this place and she recommended it highly!On State College, there are so many great restaurants, coffee shops and cool Mexican food and taco places.I've patronized several, this one was one I needed to try and did just that yesterday!It's in a small little strip mall with a barber shop and a chicken place. The parking is busy but not bad.I wasn't too hungry but figured 3 tacos would be ok.I'm used to tacos being small 2-3 bite tacos so that's how one I ordered 3. I was wrong! They are huge and filling!I regret not snapping a photo but they looked good so I indulged promptly.They give you your order and you step to the side and get your salsas, toppings, napkins and cutlery.The tacos and burritos are great(my friend got a bean burrito).The place is clean and cute and the staff is super friendly!Cooks are hard at work, it's a cute taco place that I recommend highly!Gracias ;)

By far the most fresh Birria, you will ever have whether it be goat or beef meat. It is always delicious. Their service is OK sometimes but that's only due to their high volume of business. Other than that the restaurant vibes are always amazing because they always have a lot of clientele.10/10 definitely recommend

This is one of our favorite local taco spots! The ordering process is simple - you order at the counter, wait for your number to be called, and then either sit down or take your food to go. My go-to is the La Birria tacos, which come with a choice of lamb or beef, paired with a flavorful consome. We also love their street tacos, which offer a variety of protein options to choose from. They also have a self service salsa and toppings bar. It's a great casual spot that keeps us coming back.

I've been coming here for tacos for years. I love their birria tacos with consommé and their mulitas. Service is always friendly. The line can get pretty long during peak hours. To bypass the long wait times, I order ahead and then I go in to pick up my food now. Highly recommended giving this place a try if you're ever in the area. My only complaint would be to eat it outside of their restaurant because the tables are always dirty. Staff never comes out to wipe them down.

I wanted to like this place a lot more than I did, but unfortunately it was just a miss for us.Service: the cashier was friendly in our brief interaction, but the food took a long time to come out. They definitely prioritize getting their delivery orders out before anyone else. Food: this was the disappointing part. Tripas Taco - the meat was just not cooked enough. Usually the meat is crispy because that's how it's supposed to made. This meat however just looks like it was barely warmed. The taco was stuffed with jiggly meat. Chicken fries - I avoid red meat but it was hard to do that here. All over my fries were mystery bits of meat, that I had to pick out. The experience became less enjoyable as I continued trying to eat. Birria torta- fine nothing to write home about. The taco bar was very poorly maintained. Random limes in the salsas and spillage everywhere. Ambiance - casual spot. Small parking but we didn't have any issues. For such an expensive spot I would hope the experience would be better. There's other places nearby that will have better food at a cheaper price and higher quality.

10/10Overall: this is officially my #1 taco spot. their birria is absolutely delicious and their portions are so huge for the price. Everything tasted so yummy and I literally will dream about their quesabirria. Their sauces / additional toppings are self serve and they're all delish. I'm taking everyone here for Mexican food it is heaven. Service was so great the lady at the cashier was super kind!!Quesabirria $14: 5/5 soooooo good the cheese is was so melty and the birria was so saucy and tender. Went so well with a bit of lime and the giant tub of consume that it came with. Portion is MASSIVE. So unbelievably good. Please get this if u try.El pastor fries $15: 5/5 three of us split this and it was still too much for us. meat was so tender, the cheese was so melty, and the fries were crunchy. The fry to meat ratio was perfect and adding their green salsa and lime elevated it even more.Carne asada torta $11: 5/5 the meat was perfectly cooked and so tender with the best seasoning, they didn't skimp out on the cheese and everything on it paired so well with each other. Super massive portion too!

Excellent food. Usually there's open seating. Parking can be rough though. Only giving 3 stars because its not worth the price or the experience sometimes. Not uncommon to wait in line forever and pay way too much for your food.

**Hidden Gem Alert in Anaheim!**I stumbled upon an amazing spot today while craving a carne asada burrito, and it did not disappoint! From the moment I walked in, I noticed their selection of *agua frescas*--all natural and not machine-made, which was a great first impression.The menu is incredibly diverse, with options for everyone. I ordered a carne asada burrito for myself, a cabeza burrito for my mom, a wet burrito (they kindly made it with both red and green sauce upon request), and two mullitas. The team here is fantastic--they made me feel like family, repeated my order to ensure accuracy, and pointed out their salsa bar. The cashier was especially great; she handled everything so efficiently, and I'm really hoping she's the manager!The kitchen was on fire (in the best way), with the cook cranking out orders quickly while still ensuring top-notch quality. Every customer was treated with warmth and respect, and even when they had phone orders coming in, they made sure to keep us all updated.Now, the food! The *mullita* with tripa was perfectly cooked--not too soft, not too tough, and just the right size. The carne asada burrito was massive and packed with flavor; the meat was seasoned perfectly. My mom loved the cabeza burrito and insisted we go back soon. As for the wet burrito, it was also huge, and my daughter absolutely loved it. She was all about the heat from the red sauce, while the green sauce was wonderfully savory. I also grabbed some green salsas and pickled carrots with *chiles de arbol* to take home--delicious! Oh, and yes, they have seating available if you want to dine in.After placing my order, I spotted someone picking up *tacos dorados de papa*, and I knew I had to try one. It was totally worth it! The taco comes packed with potatoes, lettuce, *queso seco*, and sour cream--simple but flavorful.I also noticed that their tortillas have a unique taste with a savory seasoning that really stands out, complementing the potatoes perfectly. Definitely a great choice! All in all, I've found my new favorite spot in Anaheim. Can't wait to come back!

I love this place. I have been here so many times and it is always delicious. I definitely recommend that you call ahead because it is always busy and takes quite a bit of time if you just walk in, but they're torta is amazing and their beirra tacos are the bomb.
