Food, bar and specials
The menu centres on tacos, enchiladas and fajitas. The bar pours tequila, margaritas and a list of signature cocktails, and happy hour runs from 3 to 6 on Monday through Thursday. Tuesdays bring the taco special, and on football nights, Monday and Thursday plus all day Sunday, the restaurant shows the games with specials of their own.

Planning a visit or an event
For a table on a game night, arrive early or call ahead, since those evenings draw a crowd. For catering, give the date, guest count and location as early as you can, ask what menu packages are available and whether serving staff, setup and chafing dishes are included, and get the quote in writing with the deposit terms. If anyone in your party has a food allergy or eats vegetarian, ask which dishes can be adjusted. The restaurant posts current specials on Instagram and Facebook under the handle elpatiofremont.

Preguntas frecuentes

Walk-ins are normal at a neighbourhood Mexican restaurant, but game nights and weekend evenings can fill up. Call ahead for a larger group or a specific time, and ask whether the restaurant holds tables.
How far ahead should I book catering?
For a wedding or large party, contact the restaurant several weeks ahead; for an office lunch, a week is often enough. Have the date, guest count and location ready, and ask for the quote and deposit terms in writing.
