This small restaurant has great service & the best food. One of my favorites is the brussel sprouts appetizers. This visit I had a steak & my hubby had the shepards pie. The shepards pie was good, but my steak melted in my mouth. It came with a cheesy steak sauce that was heavenly. They have 3 options for steak sauce, but the cheese one was the best. We shared a vanilla bean creme brule that was also delicious.

The atmosphere is fantastic, with low, eclectic music setting the mood. You absolutely have to try the shrimp lettuce wrap--it's incredibly delicious! Honestly, I could have eaten two of those for dinner. The steak, Yukon mashed potatoes, and mixed vegetables were also delightful. I'll definitely be returning! The service was outstanding, with no complaints at all. This restaurant is a must-visit--top tier, 10 stars! They even box your food when you just can't eat anymore!!!

Have been here for several special occasions and have always had great memories over the years. Had a dinner here with someone who became a lifelong friend, another dinner with people I consider family, and even celebrated our recent anniversary here. Food has always been excellent and staff have always been beautifully kind to us. Cocktails have always been interesting and pretty cool to try. Usually I'm not particular to a restaurant or business but this place holds a small place in my heart.

The food ambiance and the service is exceptional. Our waitress Creedance is vivacious and has a gregarious personality. I would highly recommend this location for anyone in the area. I had the yellow curry with added chicken, it was flavourful and exquisite.

Patrona is back on the menu, thanks to new ownership! Ventured in tonight with an eye on the new dishes that showcase the style and capability of the new owner/chefs, and was not disappointed. The halibut ("fresh off the bone, caught today") and asparagus and crispy prosciutto orchiette were great, with a nicely seasoned but impressively austere prep that showcased the local seasonal ingredients. The egg topping the pasta was to the second perfect, and if the halibut was a few seconds longer on the heat than we prefer, it was just by a few seconds. Patrona remains unwavering in their cocktail appeal. Our server, Credence, was a highlight of the evening. She's present, knowledgeable, entertaining and just overall memorably personal and real, putting a true Ukiah spin on a lovely night out. We've more frequently patronized other local spots in the last few years because our opinion on Patrona food was that it was (while overall appealing to local audiences) unexciting, a bit over sugared, and somewhat uneven from visit to visit in cook and seasoning, but tonight fulfilled our hopes for a new era. Will be back soon and eager to see what's next!

Busy, but roomy. The service is friendly, but hurried because it was so busy. The 4 at the next table had one fussy guest, but she couldn't tell the wait staff why she wasn't satisfied with the dish. She couldn't answer and the wait staff said she needed an answer to figure out what was wrong. She should have asked, "How can we improve it? What do you need? Would you like something else?" Found out the waitstaff was new, but still should have waited and asked, "How can I/we improve?" I had someone different and very friendly and attentive. Eye contact is always key in customer service. Large group next to me with children, which is challenging. Overall, the food was delicious. They are pricey, but proviide an ample amount of food. My lunch, chicken parmesan with a refeshing glass (too much ice) of ginger ade served with a paper straw, not plastic, nice, was delicious They have a wide variety of dishes, like curries and salads. It hit the spot for me

I know the service at Patronas isn't always the best but at least The Heart Beat is one of my top favorite drinks in Ukiah... It was the Flower Bomb but sadly they took it away :/ This Heart Beat has a Sugar Rim on it makes the tart taste seem better that's my opinion at least. Patronas is pretty quiet that's one positive thing I can say about the restaurant.

I don't know what's better. It's either the onion rings or the fantastic customer service at the bar. This particular location has a quaint and cozy bar with a regular clientele on Friday nights. The lovely bartenderess was simply fabulous to watch making the most gourmet cocktails I have seen in a long time. Frankly, at an average of $12-$15 for the cocktails, for what you're getting, a beautiful and exotic concoction, it's money well spent. Enjoy your cocktail mesmerized by the comings and goings of all of the kitchen staff and waitresses with your bartender popping back-and-forth making sure that you were satisfied with everything that's going on. I have not had this much attention from a food service personnel in a very long time. Very friendly customers. Great onion rings! I'd like to read up on this particular place to find out how long they've been in business and the history. I think this would be a great write up for a foodie magazine or the local rags. While you're there, imagine if you will, the bar being a podcast station. Our waitress this evening has been thinking about creating a podcast that happens live at a bar. Can you imagine? Those who want to participate wearing microphones and headsets along with the bartenders and let the banter begin! I would tune in to that show and I hope it happens. Even better is a live cam! Best of luck with that idea. I ordered off-menu onion rings that you can order if the lunch fodder is still available in the kitchen. So very good with blue cheese dip sauce. Pair it with your neighbor at bar and share! $8.00. My tip to you is to take a look at the daily menu sheet for the cocktails at the bottom. I realize now that the wine on that menu was a great deal.
