El Patio Mexican Restaurant Reviews in Troy

  Let me start with the good. It was very clean and the staff were friendly. Now to the food. To be fair, we didn't order much, three tacos and two margaritas, but all of it was bland like they seasoned everything with water. My margarita was suppose to have sugar on the rim and my first sip was a straw full of salt. Disgusting. Past the salt, the margarita was just totally flavorless like a sugarless sno cone. The tacos were fresh but again absolutely no flavor aside from the cheese. The best part of the visit was the chips and salsa. One and done for me.

  If I could give El Patio 0 stars, I would. Last week I visited this restaurant for dinner with three others. We were not too hungry so we figured we would order two entrees and split them. Upon doing so, the waiter seemed very annoyed that we only ordered two things. Regardless, he brought out our order and placed the $7 quesadilla which was simply a 5 inch tortilla filled with cheese folded in half and shredded lettuce described as "guacamole salad". He also brought out our nachos, which once we ate the few chips on the top layer the rest of the plate was a waste because of the soggy chips immersed in an unknown liquid. Needless to say we stopped eating both 'entrees'. He came back to check on us after a while and we were still hungry, so I asked for another basket of tortilla chips to eat with the salsa because as I told him, the nachos are inedible because of the soggy-ness. He was angry I told him that we did not like our order and told me that this is how they made them and we cannot get another free basket of tortillas because we had only ordered 2 entrees. Nevertheless I will never go back to this restaurant and I advise you to steer clear unless you want subpar Mexican food and to deal with a rude waitstaff.

  Very good, Texas Margaritas are really good until my wife find anything better this will be are go to place

  Our go-to Mexican restaurant in the metro Detroit area. Honestly some of the best Mexican food around. We are there at least once a month. Food is amazing. Portions are huge. Price is very reasonable. Service has always been great. We always get the grande burrito fajita or the fajita quesadilla texana. 5 stars!
