Sunday Lunch Specials In Our Local Area Lead To Our
El Patron Mexican Grill and Cantina Review

My husband and I have found only two Mexican Restaurants that we love for regular dining and in our travels throughout Southern California.  I'll get my reviews out for those later.  However we found a jewel of a Mexican restaurant by accident in our own backyard of Hemet, California.  We've been living here for a few years while we decide where we really want to live for the rest of our retirement.   It's been great here but we always have to go out of town for Mexican food.  NOT ANY MORE!

After visiting the Western Science Center Museum in the Diamond Valley Lake area we traveled a short distance East and noticed the El Patron Mexican Grill  and Cantina and thought we'd give it a try.  Our experience led to this unexpected El Patron Mexican Grill and Cantina.

We ordered once we sat down and not long after our waitress brought our food.  Great service is important, but the food is the real test of a great food establishment, so we said a quick prayer (we do this before we eat--not because we were afraid), took a deep breath and dug into the food.

I felt like food critics because we've been disappointed so many times in Mexican restaurants.  But Oh My Goodness!  The food was absolutely delicious! My husband ordered two enchiladas from the lunch special menu and I ordered two lunch special tacos.

What really surprised me was that the beans and rice tasted just like my grandma's from when I was a child.  I thought I would never have that taste again!  She never passed down her recipes so I'm clueless about what she did.  Now I can just go down to the East side of town and taste her food all over again!

My grandparents on my mother's side were from Spain. My grandfather was a minister who settled in American as a pastor with his young wife, and at that time, two small children in Orange County, California.  Their church was in a small Hispanic community that influenced my grandmother's cooking from Spanish to Mexican.  So I was used to the mild Mexican food dishes of the people in that area, rather than the hot Sonora style food.  By chance my husband has the same taste that I do, so this has been our dilemma.  Now we have three Mexican restaurants that all have great food, but it all varies in taste.

Now, Back To My El Patron Restaurant Review...

The prices were very reasonable for the quality of food and the service, as I said, was consistently good throughout our meal as well as afterward when it came time to receive our check and pay.  Our hostess and waitress were very friendly and caring.  The restaurant itself was very clean and comfortable with televisions on the wall playing different sports programming.

If you're ever in the Hemet, California area, I highly recommend this restaurant, especially if you're just passing through in a hurry.   I give this establishment 5 stars out of 5.  How about you?  If you visit, please rate it below.  Thanks!  We hope our El Patron Mexican Grill and Cantina Review is helpful!
