A new Mexican restaurant is currently under build-out at an Ocala plaza next to the Paddock Mall.
El Patron Mexican Grill and Bar is currently under build-out at 3101 SW 34th Avenue, #1000. The new restaurant is located within the Shoppes at Paddock Park, next to the UPS Store.
A sign above the entrance to the new restaurant indicates that it is “coming soon,” although no other information was available regarding its opening.
When it opens, El Patron will become one of several new Mexican restaurants that have joined the Ocala scene recently.
Last month, My Quate Taste-Mex opened a new location along S Pine Avenue, in downtown Ocala.
La Catrina Cocina Mexicana has nearly completed renovating a new space at Churchill Square.
Additional recent openings include Cantina Tex Mex Tequila Bar, Sayulita Taqueria, El Mezcal, La Fiesta, Casita Luna, Antojitos 352, and Brisas Del Mar.
