This review is for their former location at 901 4th St, Santa Rosa CA 95404.
From the outside, El Patio is very simple looking. Almost like the old fashioned style burger joint. There are tables outside on the deck that are surrounded by a rectangular fence and around the other side is an awning covering more tables. The restaurant itself only has three booths inside.
It’s very simple with a menu above the counter. The kitchen is in the back and they’re quickly cooking up orders. After ordering, you are given chips in a basket and you take the number on the plastic stand to your table. Once your order is ready, they serve you by searching out your number.
- Regular Taco with Shredded Beef – Two flour tortillas are filled with shredded seasoned beef. Adjacent to the wrapped taco is a bed of shredded lettuce topped with a little salsa and cheese. It’s a simple dish, but nicely done. Don’t let the beef sit too long because the juice from the meat will soak into the tortillas. Fresh and good, the meat is not overseasoned, but nice. Other meat choices are available. $2.25
- Regular Burrito with Shredded Chicken – A large burrito filled with rice, beans, cheese, choice of meat, and cheese is topped with enchilada sauce. It’s a hearty portion, and the filling is fresh. Simple and good. The chicken is indeed shredded and lightly seasoned. $ 5.25
Food comes only a few minutes after ordering, and the salsa is bottomless. They put the salsa into little plastic containers and you can enjoy as much as you like. It’s a self serve place for drinks and salsa, but it’s simple and good. Fresh food for inexpensive prices, El Patio is the place to go.
