🌮 A Flavorful Experience at La Patrona 2 – Glassboro, NJ 🌮

If you’re in Glassboro, NJ, or visiting Rowan University, you should check out La Patrona 2, just a block away from campus! This cozy spot offers a fantastic array of Mexican dishes, perfect for satisfying your taco cravings or indulging in hearty, flavorful meals.

I had the pleasure of diving into a few of their standout dishes, and here’s the scoop:

Tacos
The tacos at La Patrona 2 are an absolute highlight! I tried three varieties — Chorizo, Al Pastor, and Cecina — each packed with incredible flavor. The Chorizo was perfectly seasoned with a hint of spice and rich flavor, while the Al Pastor had a sweet and savory balance, thanks to the pineapple and juicy pork. The Cecina (dried beef) was tender and smoky, adding another layer of depth to the taco trio. All served on soft, fresh tortillas — simply irresistible!

Gigantic Chicken Quesadilla
Next, I couldn’t resist trying their Chicken Quesadilla, and wow, it was absolutely massive! The quesadilla was loaded with tender chicken, melty cheese, and wrapped in a perfectly crisped tortilla. It’s the type of dish you’ll definitely want to share, but it’s so delicious you might just want to keep it all to yourself. 😋

Beef Empanadas
Finally, I went for the Beef Empanadas, and while they were a bit different than what I expected (they were cheesy!), they were still pretty good. The crispy golden pastry was filled with a savory mix of beef and cheese, and although the cheesy twist was unexpected, it added an interesting touch.

Whether you’re grabbing tacos, a giant quesadilla, or something else off the menu, you won’t be disappointed. Great food, great vibes, and just a stone’s throw away from campus!
