Watch how they charge you. Haven't been there in months because of them overcharging us. Stopped there after work to see if it got better... nope. And when we told the waitress you overcharged our margaritas, we were told the menus are old and do nit show the correct price.. three times we sent the bill back before they used the amount that was shown on the menu. Then told the next time we come in if the menus still are " the old ones" she told us the margaritas will be the new price, which is nit stated. We have issues with them doubling our bill months ago and they fought and refused to give us what it showed on the menu back then. This time we wanted to see what we were charged and again wasn't the price as advertised. This is called false advertisement, we will not be back. Oh and the cheese sauce is 5.99 if you get it with your chips. Just an fyi

We tried El Patrón 323 in Smithfield for the first time, and it did not disappoint! The food came out incredibly fast and everything was absolutely delicious. My wife ordered the queso birria tacos, I went with the Tex-Mex Hawaianos fajitas, and my daughter got her usual ACP. Every single dish was fantastic! What really stood out was that both my wife and daughter said this is now their new favorite Mexican restaurant—and trust me, they are very picky when it comes to Mexican food. That alone speaks volumes. On top of the amazing food, the service was some of the best I’ve had in a long time. Our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure we were taken care of the entire meal. Highly recommend this place if you’re in Smithfield. We will definitely be back!

I had the pleasure of visiting Marisco El Patron while in town and was thoroughly impressed! I ordered the fajita lunch special, which came with three different types of meats served sizzling on a hot skillet – absolutely delicious. My favorite part of the meal was the hot, spicy salsa paired with fresh, crispy chips – a perfect combination! The atmosphere was fantastic, with a great vibe that made the experience even better. The staff was incredibly fast, friendly, and attentive, constantly checking to make sure I had everything I needed. It's clear they genuinely care about their customers. If you're looking for a place with great food and excellent service, Marisco El Patron is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in town!

Average quality food, pricey, poor service. I had a colleague meeting here, the food was average but nothing to really to complain about in that department. However, the experience of my party was overshadowed by poor service from the manager and poor decision-making. My colleague had been there the previous day, however when he ordered the same dish they brought him a single item with no sides. He explained that the previous day the dish seemed to be different. The manager and waitress said there was no problem and brought his sides. Little did we know they were going to charge him twice the price. We explained thoroughly that there was a mistake and misunderstanding, but the manager only said she could offer a free item. Then he ordered an item to go. The manager came with this item and before handing it to him she asked "are you going to pay for this with cash?" At that point everyone at the table just froze. Obviously this is a long story but all I can say is that we felt insulted and taken advantage of. This was a colleague get together and it left everybody in the table feeling deeply uncomfortable, embarrassed, disappointed and like it was a waste of money. Poor decision-making by the manager here. Nobody in my party will bring our...

i AND MY DAUGHTER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER DECIDED TO EAT HERE ON THURSDAY. WE ORDERED OUR FOOD. FIRST, THEY DID NOT GET MY ORDER CORECTLY. BUT I ATE IT ANYWAY. SECOND MY DAUHTERS ORDER WAS NASTY WITH A VERY FISHY WOILD TASTE, AS SHE TOOK MAYBE HER 3RD BITE SHE REALIZED THAT IT HAD OCTOPUS IN IT. THE MENU IS IN SPANISH AND YES WE BOTH READ IT. IT SAID MIXED SEAFOOD, WE DID NOT THINK TO ASK WHAT KIND OF SEAFOOD WOULD BE IN IT BUT USUALLY MIXED SEAFOOD CONSIST OF SHRIMP FISH SCAMPY MAYBE CRAB, BUT WE NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD HAVE OCTOPUS. SO, WE CALLED THE WAITRESS OVER, EXPLAINED TO HER THE PROBLEM, SHE THEN TOLD HER MANAGER, THIS IS WHERE IT GETS BAD. THE MANAGER WAS SO RUDE & NASTY TO US. SHE JUST SAID IT SAYS MIXED SEAFOOD. ITS NOT MY FAULT YOU DIDNT UNDERSTAND. SHE REFUSED TO REMOVE THE ORDER FROM HER TICKET. SHE REFUSED TO GIVE ME THE OWNERS NUMBER SHE WALKED AWAY FROM ME WHILE I WAS SPEAKING AND WENT TO THE BACK. THE ABSOLUTE WORSE CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER. SHE TOOK IT TO A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL OF RUDENESS & DISRESPECT.... THE WORSE PART IS SHE SAID SHE WAS THE MANAGER, FROM MY EXPERIENCE, A MANAGER KNOWS HOW TO DEAL WITH UNSATISFIED CUSTOMERS AND MAKE THINGS RIGGHT. SHE GOT MAD AT US AND BECAME...

An unforgettable Mexican experience at Patron Smithfield!

What an amazing find! Patron Smithfield delivers an authentically Mexican experience that exceeds all expectations. From the moment you walk in, the vibrant and welcoming atmosphere transports you straight to Mexico.

The food is absolutely outstanding. We tried molcajete. The portions are generous, and the presentation is beautiful.

The drinks are on another level. Their margarita selection is fantastic fresh, well-balanced, and served with a special twist. They also offer a great variety of premium mezcals and tequilas that perfectly complement the meal.

And the service? Exceptional. Attentive, fast, and always with a smile. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and makes you feel right at home from start to finish.

Without a doubt, Patron Smithfield is a place we’ll be coming back to again and again. Delicious food, amazing drinks, and top-notch service. A...
