When you need to cap a long day with an enormous margarita and well-made tacos, enchiladas, burritos, guac, bowls, and generous rounds of chips and salsa, El Patron has the polish you might easily mistake for a well-heeled national chain—but nope, it’s a well-run family business, and the owner listens to guests. Ingredients are fresh, tequila choices are plentiful and high-quality, and prices are sensible. On Tuesdays, stuff yourself with tacos for one low price ($13 at lunch and $19 at dinner).
