Reviews For Don Patron - Mexican Grill & Cantina

Spectacular! Service was friendly, professional & excellent. Food was authentic, abundant & wonderful. The ambiance was colorful & bright. HUGE menu, hard to choose. Authentic Mexican food. My gluten free, (not spicy request) meal of Carnitas was so delicious. My husband loved his chicken enchiladas. Every bite from the warm chips & salsa to the melt in your mouth meat, arroz, frijoles, warm tortillas, etc. was perfect. The flan was some of the best I’ve had. Great drinks menu. I had a Pomegranate Paloma w/o the tequila. Excellent. The service was terrific from the moment we walked in, & our waiter Mario was brilliant. 5 We will be regulars!

The food here was really good! This was a recommendation by some locals we were at an event with. Their drinks are amazing too and worth every penny spent here. Forgot to take more pictures but the churros were a great end to the meal. 5/5!

These are 2 kids meals costing 16. Are they supposed to share the one to go container? What kind of restaurant makes kids meals without any side, costing 8 each? 8 for a kids taco? We have dined in many times and received sides with the kids meals at no additional charge so I find this frustrating! We have ordered takeout twice and both times no sides with kids meals so this was no mistake. Was supposed to be an easy take out night..The food is always delicious, just need to mindful of customers utilizing takeout option!

This was second time here and once again, very pleased. Food was excellent and service was impeccable. Highly recommend. We had Ceviche for appetizer and it was fresh and very tasty. Steak and shrimp dish could serve 2 people.

In the small town of Marlboro, west of Boston, you'll find Don Patron—a delightful Mexican restaurant that stands out for all the right reasons. Unlike big city establishments filled with pretentious patrons, this place is frequented by friendly neighborhood folks who appreciate authentic Mexican cuisine. The stylish bar might be generally empty, but the dining area is always full, which speaks volumes about the excellent food quality. Unlike some high-end French restaurants where you might leave disappointed, Don Patron delivers exactly what you expect, if not more. The food is consistently top-notch, and the service is impeccable. Every visit is a pleasure with excellent food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere. And let's not forget their damn good lemonade—it's a must-try! Don Patron truly has mastered the art of providing a perfect dining experience every time.
