Taqueria La Patrona

I came because of another review. The food was really good, large portions. The server wasn’t knowledgeable about gluten allergies and neither was the person who answered the phone. Apparently the kitchen staff is a bit more familiar with it. Chicken, steak, and shrimp are not marinated and cooked with only seasonings. I ordered the fajitas with corn tortillas. I brought my own chips because they do fry everything together .I just missed happy hour, but everything was good.

My family came here for dinner and this was some of the best Mexican food we have had in the US. The staff is very kind and was very knowledgeable about my gluten allergy (I have celiac disease for all other celiacs reading this review), they took great care to ensure my food was safe and that I did not get sick. The queso and homemade guac was phenomenal. They brought me my own little tostado things to use as dippers because the homemade chips were not gluten free. They also took great care to make me my own gluten free birria tacos which were delicious. The portions are also nice and big. I will 100% be returning next time I’m in VA beach and recommending this place to all my friends! Not to mention the margs r delicious and strong ;)
