Enjoyed a nice meal at Loco Patron in Scottsdale.  This little indoor/outdoor restaurant serves up some good Mexican food.  We were lucky to have an incredible waitress who attends the local college.  Even though the place was crowded our waitress took time to laugh, smile and talk with us despite the fact that we were probably the oldest farts in the place.  As the night got later, the restaurant started to attract a lot of young and middle aged ladies dressed to kill.  This was mixed with the college crowd who was just there to party and drink.  One young buck in front of us was quietly removed by security because he was about to drop or throw up.  Ejection was done quietly and discretely.  The Shrimp Ceviche was delicious but the Shrimp were just the tiny frozen ones.  Would have been much better with larger shrimp and maybe some spice.  The Shredded Beef Tacos were delicious.  Some of the best.  Really tiny though.  Wish they were larger.  For $11 I would have liked around four of these tacos and less rice and beans.  Great flavor and worthy of an award.  Loco Patron is located on Scottsdale Road which is really happening on Friday and Saturday nights.  There are dozen of bars and clubs all around this area.  The clubs are worthy of Las Vegas.  Complete with music, dancing girls, free shots, bottle service and a very high energy level.  Great thing is that you can go anywhere in Old Town Scottsdale via golf carts.  The rides are free and really piss off the cab drivers.
