| - This place has been on my radar for a while. With the visit of a friend last year, and a promise to buy my birthday dinner ^_^ That said, I've only been once, so my perspective is limited.
First, our waiter, an older gentleman, was awesome. He was friendly and sociable, so made our back corner table a little warmer with his presence. Our waters were also frequently topped off, which is _always_ a priority in my restaurant visit.
Second, the chips and salsa...among the best I can recall. The salsa especially. SO GOOD. And, maybe it doesn't show on yelp, but I've eaten more than my fair share of salsa, and this one is up there (e.g. went to some Salsa fest last year in Phoenix - SO disappointing). And they kept it coming. I mean, the "and's" could keep coming, but I'll tap it off here.
Third, the food was good. I can't say I was as blown away by what I ordered, but it was good, and I enjoyed the leftovers the next day.
As to the price, I suggest you also get a friend to buy you dinner. It makes it sooo affordable. Still, looking at the prices on the menu, you're wallet probably won't hurt much, as they seemed pretty low to me. Still, have birthday dinners as often as you can ;)
While we still have so many Mexican places that we've yet to visit in the valley, Mi Patio is somewhere we'd consider returning to.
