First time here and LOVED it. Homemade salsa AND chips. Alejandro took good care of us. Had the Weds special & assorted enchilada dishes. Delicious! Sorry, I forgot to take a pic of the board and menu. We will definitely be back when in the area.

My husband and I really enjoyed their food from the trio dip to our main course meal. They served a lot of food for a great price. We are so glad we stopped by during our vacation. Our server was Kenneth and he was amazing along with the staff members there which is rare in restaurants nowadays. We will definitely be back again.

We went for taco Tuesday dinner. Tacos are 2 on taco Tuesday. I had the queso birria tacos and they were possibly the best tacos I've ever had! The beef was as tender as a pot roast. Our waiter was very kind and prompt. He took time to explain what each of their tacos were. We also ordered a cup of poblano queso and it ranked right up there with the tacos. Me and my family will definitely be back and try the rest of the menu.

We had a great lunch here. It was our first time here. Friendly, attentive service. Extensive menu, so hard to decide. Went with a daily special burrito. My husband had mufungo. Both were delicious.

This place is amazing, we first came in when they had just changed over and have loved watching the improvements to the restaurant. Came back in tonight and The salsa is delicious and fresh and the flautas were the best meal I've had in a while. My hubby had amazing enchiladas verde. Everything was so fresh and looked beautiful. Thank you, El Patio, we don't normally drive to Hollister to eat, but we'll be back!!! The servers were so friendly and attentive as well!

When i walked in the door i was amazed at how nice/modern it was inside! Im used to the darker more traditional Mexican restaurants. I really liked the look and so did my family. We all ordered and ALL loved what we tasted. The quantity of food was more then we could eat, we all took boxes home! My pictures are from after we started eating...i was too busy eating chips and forgot...lol.

First time here. I thought the chip and homemade salsa was the best ever. But I was sold from the first bite of my meal. I don’t think I will eat at any other Mexican restaurant in this area EVER AGAIN!!! Kaldwyn was an excellent server.

A convenient, clean, cute restaurant with some amazing food. We have had four different dishes between us, each just as scrumptious as the other. The chips are light and crunchy while the salsa is a perfect blend of flavors! The waitstaff are friendly, attentive and seem to enjoy serving. It is a great place to bring family and friends to hang out and get full! Give it a try, then come back and try something different!
