El Patron Bar & Grill

Great plentiful fresh and very good service. It can be a little noisy especially in the evening but not rowdy or anything. Very convenient.

Visited this restaurant on a Saturday night.The ambience was good. Like the "live music" from Mexico, which is a projector but really reminds me of time when I had vacation in Mexico.Server checked us out from time to time, which was good.There are a full list of cocktails that you can choose from, and you can even ask bartender to customize your drinks.But the drink is a bit overpriced to my surprise - even more expensive than some other bars at town center of Falls Church or even McLean. Recommend the food there (a bit salty for me). But don't recommend the drinks there if you wanna spend your night drinking, lol

The food (I had a chicken chimichanga) was, hands down, some of THE BEST food I've ever had. The waitress humored me and spoke as much Spanish back and forth with me as she could (English is my native language, not Spanish). It's small, but very vivacious with their TV's playing Spanish music videos! My ONLY complaint? The music was a BIT too loud.

Huge portions here with friendly service and reasonable prices. The pork al pastor is a must try with a large portion of pork, pineapple, avocado, veggies, beans, and rice. It is served with thick Salvadorian style tortillas which are much more filling than your normal ones. The fresh guacamole for the chips and guac is excellent as well. I'm glad I tried this place and it's even walking distance to my house, so I'll be back here for sure.

The food is so flavorful & the plates are big!! I ordered 3 tacos (2 carne and one carnitas) and 2 pupusas revueltas. I didn't get to the pupusas in one sitting because the tacos were huge! The carne was great, the carnitas were OK. Not horrible but I've had better. The pupusas were really good leftover. The place itself is pretty big and relaxing inside. The parking lot is really tiny though and I had trouble getting out.

Such a nice place. Food is GREAT!!Dining area , bathrooms clean always. Music to our likes Love it. Bartenders and waitresses are friendly. Again, food is fantastic. Highly recommend it!

Their pupusas are literally so awful. I ordered meat and cheese ones to be delivered, and they not only forgot to include the cabbage or salsa in my order, but there was literally NO meat and barely any cheese in them. They basically taste like bland, think, dry ass corn tortillas with a pinch of cheese. Maybe try the other stuff on their menu? I want to throw up.

The food was terrible - meat was over salted, chips tasted stale, and the chicken did not taste like chicken. We tried to order chicken soup, but we were told it was with hen instead of chicken. Asked for a side of pinto beans, but were told they only had refried beans. The salsa was watery. The atmosphere is severely lacking. The chairs are worn and 2 of the 4 walls are mirrored. There is no character to this place. If you're looking for a decent Tex-mex meal, or something closer to Mexican, head to El Tio. It looks like they have a solid bar, but to be honest, I won't be back for a drink.

Very hyped. A lot of Best of ____ reviews. Maybe if it hadn't been set up so high Would've thought it was better. Extremely small parking lot. So either get luck or find street parking far away. Tex-Mex with a splash of Salvadoran. Seems like most Salvadoran restaurants are afraid to authentic and feel the need for Tex-Mex. Americans have a more sophisticated palate. Authentic Salvadoran would be nice somewhere. Food was fine. Service was fine. Chips and salsa, take a pass on them.

When I arrived at the bar I expected high quality food, however when I received the plate, it had a weird smell and looked very poor. The service in one word in HORRIBLE, the cashier was very rude to me. They do not accept payment of credit cards below 10$, so they can evade paying fees. The cashier kept making a strange look at me, like I am supposed to give her a tip, however if she saw her attitude she would probably understand! Very poor experience in this bar
