Taqueria La Patrona - Virginia Beach

We went and ate here for a meetup. everyone was very happy with their food! the elote with soy meat was unlike anything I've ever had. love that it have vegan el Pastor with soy meat. we had the vegan mayo with the recommendation of the server. 100% recommend!

I loved their mushroom tacos, elote, horchata sopapillas!! they’re good reminded me of my childhood before I was vegan! Updated from previous review on 2023-03-06

The mushroom tacos looked boring but as soon as I took a bite, I was amazed! I saw fireworks in my head like the ones in the movie Ratatouille coz it was bursting with delicious flavor! The savory flavor with a squeeze of lime, the textures with the mild spicy sauce (it comes with the tacos) and the soft corn flour is just when seated, you get a bowl of warm tortilla chips served with salsa. I’ve never had esquite or elote before I was vegan but when I tried them they tasted similar. They’re pretty tart and creamy at the same time. The enchiladas were great as well, and the horchata is a must! It’s so sweet and cinnamony! I am so thankful that this restaurant has vegan food available that tastes amazing. The staff is very friendly too and the atmosphere is great. I did get served a non-vegan esquite at first but thankfully I smelled it coz the mayo looked too yellow to be vegan mayo so I told the waiter and I got a replacement of vegan esquite. I say come hungry so that you eat the delicious food there to avoid having to get containers for the leftovers coz the food gets soggy in the container overnight.

I am so happy o found this place... I can't wait to come back!

I'm thrilled I discovered this spot. I can't wait to return!
