What Donna Cooper doesn't like about EL Patio Mexican Restaurant:
IMO this is pretty average Mexican food. There wasn’t much seasoning on the food that I had. The salsa and queso were the best part of the meal. The service was excellent though! View all feedback. What Todd Connelly likes about EL Patio Mexican Restaurant:
Every time we visit family in Ponca City, we eat at El Patio, at least once! The service is excellent. It seems to be always crowded and the food is okay. I don't care for the salsa. I guess it's popular in Ponca because there isn't much else to choose from. View all feedback.

This Mexican restaurant in Ponca City seems to have mixed reviews from its customers. Some felt that the food was average with not enough seasoning, while others raved about the delicious dishes such as the cowboy fajitas. Service also received mixed feedback, with some praising the attentiveness of the waitstaff while others noted long waits and lack of refills on drinks. The atmosphere was also mentioned, with some finding it poor and in need of improvement. Despite these varied opinions, many visitors seem to enjoy the menu options and find the prices fair. Ultimately, El Patio seems to be a popular choice for Mexican cuisine in the area, with some patrons returning on a regular basis.
