El Patio is located on Calle San Salvador in 5 de Diciembre, tucked into a small patio space behind a concrete wall. But don't let anything about the exterior presentation or surroundings of this place (the enclosure, the gate, or the neighborhood) deter you from visiting!

The staff are incredibly welcoming in this hidden 5 de Diciembre gem, and the food is impeccable. Rene, the owner, has custom-curated his menu to provide a mix of Mexican and American staples, offering his guests a full range of new and familiar cuisine.

And despite being just off the main drag of Calle San Salvador, the interior of this restaurant is calm, tranquil, and serene. Full of lush vegetation, comfortable seating, and a fresh air in an outdoor patio setting, this restaurant is an oasis on such a bustling street.
