Customer Reviews
The beef chimichangas were really good. The food came to the table good and hot, temperature wise. Always good experience going there for a meal. Will go be going back. 1/16/26 Friday Went back today for a late lunch. I had the two quasadas, I have to tell you how good they were. Wow, i was impressed. Steak,Chicken & Shrimp it was delicious.
I love this place so much. We have gone to the one in Clayton before, this one in Smithfield is equally as good with even better outdoor seating. That’s a huge agave plant! Best queso birria ever. Great drinks. Everything is fresh and home made and they don’t skimp on ingredients at all. It tastes like it was made with love. The El Patron restaurants here locally are a most favorite, in our top 5 places to go on a regular basis. Oh yeah, and I got a piece of tres leches cake to go! I’ll come back with a pic and to share my thoughts on it…. It’s pretty good! I would try their other desserts next time to find that perfect one they make that’s just beyond excellent.
One of my favorite restaurants! The food is always good and the people there are very friendly! We’ve had the pleasure of having Pablo serve us the many times we’ve been there and he is very friendly and beyond excellent with his service! Highly recommended!
We tried El Patrón 323 in Smithfield for the first time, and it did not disappoint! The food came out incredibly fast and everything was absolutely delicious. My wife ordered the queso birria tacos, I went with the Tex-Mex Hawaianos fajitas, and my daughter got her usual ACP. Every single dish was fantastic! What really stood out was that both my wife and daughter said this is now their new favorite Mexican restaurant—and trust me, they are very picky when it comes to Mexican food. That alone speaks volumes. On top of the amazing food, the service was some of the best I’ve had in a long time. Our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure we were taken care of the entire meal. Highly recommend this place if you’re in Smithfield. We will definitely be back!
Dear hombre Mariscos. Today I took a very special lady to your place. We walked in and were greeted by a very nice guy and were seated on the patio on a beautiful day. I ordered a taco salad and she had some of your tacos. The food was very fresh and delicious. The staff were very nice and on top of everything. We have been here a couple times before and always been happy with your establishment. We did notice the portion sizes a little bit smaller, but that’s to be expected nowadays. But the quality of food is always top-notch. Your place is always on point and we look forward to coming back again. Thanks for a delightful meal.
