Mexican restaurant sets opening date in Burnt Hills

BURNT HILLS, N.Y. ( NEWS10 ) — El Patron II is soon set to open its doors in Burnt Hills. The restaurant is scheduled to open in the former Sam’s Chinese Restaurant space on Friday, May 17.

Sam’s Chinese Restaurant closed in September as the owners decided to retire after 26 years. Soon after the closure, the sign outside the restaurant read “Coming soon, El Patron II.” NEWS10 then reached out to El Patron Mexican Grill & Cantina in Albany and confirmed that it’s their second location.

El Patron II has the same menu as the Albany location. The menu includes tacos, fajitas, nachos, quesadillas, burritos, dips and more. You can view the menu on the El Patron II website .

Also like the Albany location, El Patron II will be open from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day. The restaurant is located at 824 Route 50 in Burnt Hills.
