El Patron Mexican Grill is a hidden gem in Durham! 🌮 Located in the University Shopping Center, this cozy spot offers fantastic prices - especially their unbeatable $0.99 Taco Tuesdays!

I tried the street tacos, which were flavorful despite being a bit drier than I expected. The cheese dip was absolutely one of the best I’ve had - so indulgent!

Service was top-notch; our attentive waitress checked in on us regularly, making sure we had everything we needed. The casual ambiance is perfect for a laid-back lunch or dinner... I’m definitely coming back! 🎉
