El Patrón is hands down one of my all-time favorite spots, we go in at least once a week. Their birria is the best I’ve ever had—rich, flavorful, perfectly tender, and consistent every single time. It’s clear they take pride in what they do, because the quality never misses.

The chip salsa dip was just off the shelf tomato paste basically, no...
