Dear Lacrosse Community,
Our goal was to stay open until April 30th.
Unfortunately, we have ran into some unforeseen circumstances and our LAST DAY will be this Saturday, March 28th.

We are deeply saddened by this, but it is necessary.
We thank you for your support and understanding.

Sincerely,
Jenny and the Pato Team

There are 44 days left until closing, and we wanted to share early photos to remember the first days of Pato and commemorate our time with you while we can. It is a gift to be able to serve food to people in this community, and we deeply appreciate all of your love and support for Pato.

Dear La Crosse Community,

After a lot of thought, reflection, and many difficult conversations, we've made the decision to close our doors at Taqueria Pato Azul.
During the last 3 1/2 years, we have truly enjoyed being a part of this community.

To our incredible team — PAST AND PRESENT — thank you for your hard work, heart, and dedication. You brought this place to life every single day.

To our loyal guests, thank you for every meal shared, every kind word, every review, every recommendation, and every time you choose to walk through our doors. Your support means everything.

While this chapter is coming to an end, our sister restaurant Bleu Duck Kitchen in Rochester will continue and all gift cards you may retain will be honored there.
Any loyalty points will not be transferable however and will be able to be used until our last day of service, which will be~ Thursday, April 30th.

We hope to see many regular faces in the coming months to send us off and say farewell.

With heartfelt thanks,
Jennifer Lester and the Pato Team
