El Matador - Table reservation

So where do I start when I went to a restaurant and actually had an absolute perfect meal. Tonight my family and I went to El Matador in Patchogue. It's been a few months since I've been there and whenever I go I like to try different things tonight was no exception. Let's start with alcohol, it was good tonight. I had something called a Michelada... I hope I'm spelling that correctly. It is a Mexican beer mixed with spicy hot sauce I'm guessing Mexican seasonings and tomato juice. I had absolutely never heard of it but asked the waitress what she recommended and that was her go-to. After she brought it and I drank most of it I said I hope it was a little bit spicier and she said that normal...

A little gem for sure. Small restaurant, friendly staff. The time frame we went it was quiet and not busy at all. If you are looking for a nice relaxed time, then go during the week, before dinner time. The owner was pleasant and welcoming. The food was flavorful and the juice drinks amazing. No you don’t need to speak Spanish to order or go there, everyone speaks English. Try it, I think you’ll enjoy it!

Our new favorite Spanish place. Literally delicious food. I get the pollo Madrid= heavenly. And let me warn you, their red sangria is no joke. One glass and I was bombed. Also the sweet plantain so good. Oh and the fried ice cream. 10/10
