Patrón Mexican Restaurant

Patrón was originally the dream of chef and owner Isadoro "Izzy" Perez, who wanted to open his own restaurant after working for years in the back of other Mexican restaurants. He created a small team to help him achieve his goal: co-owner Arturo Orozco, real estate-agent-turned-business-manager Martin J. Perez, and kitchen manager and chef Bahena. One of their most popular items, the Patrón special wet burrito, comes drenched in not one but two kinds of salsas for guests who can't choose between red and green. A lot of the menu is customizable, since tacos, quesadillas, tortas, burritos and enchiladas (a staff favorite) can be served with whatever kind of meat you like. Or if you don't like meat, ask about spinach or fajita veggies instead. Ask about anything, really — Bahena has been known to whip up special requests in the kitchen if he has time.
