A challenger (not yet the winner) in the East of Pittsburgh for Mexican Restaurant Dominance!
Hubby and I tried it out - decor is BRIGHT and LOUD - interesting at best. Margaritas were large and expensive but well done. Had a appetizer sampler platter and was just OK.
We both had the carnitas and it was just OK.
The greater discussion is - does Monroeville need another Mexican restaurant? I've had better food at El Campasino BUT Patron is trying to make more ambiance which El Campasino lacks. You've got chains like Don Pablos and Mad Mex and I'd venture to say their food is probably more consistent than Patron.
It's a toss up so verdict: I'd be willing to give it another try.
