Was recommended by a friend so we decided to give it a try. We were seated right away and menus brought and drink orders taken. They have summits a large menu but I zeroed in on the grande steak fajita burrito and my wife went with the enchilada dinner. Only sides are rice and refried beans which were ok. The food came out and the plates were full and hot. The rice and beans were the standard fare. The enchilada and burrito were nice and large covered with sour cream sauce. Flavors were good. Sauce was a little thin but tasted good. I asked for some hotter salsa and she brought dine but wasn't much more than the regular sauce. I like it hot was a good lunch and the prices were decent. Definitely a Mexican flair to the place. read more

Food was ok. Nothing special but not bad. The service was ok. The ambiance was pretty much diner meets Mexican food. Bare fluorescent tubes and minimalist chairs and tables. Oklahoma isn't into Mexican food seemingly. read more

Food was good, prices were great as well. We will be returning to this cool restaurant. Passed it many times but now driving by I will be thinking how soon I can return and try something new as there are many items that look wonderful. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Great service. After visiting this restaurant, I don't know how we ever could've missed it. Love the authentic experience. read more

love this place,good service and very wecloming.love the food and very awsome! recommend here to eat anytime.

Nothing pains me more than having to leave so,so reviews for a restaurant, especially when you want to love it but can't. We have been to El Rodeo over 15 years since being in Guthrie. The food used to be sooo good . But over the years it has become rather mediocre. The service itself was really good. Our waitress checked up on us and brought our food out quickly. But the food was just not very good. First,the chips were stale. The salsa and queso were not terrible. We ordered envhilafas- they had no flavor. The chicken was and, the refried beans were so pale . The steak and shrimp Ranchero tasted like the shrimp had been recooked many times. It was small and rubbery. The steak was ok. The rest of the plates were pretty much same issue. Bland food that was overpriced. The only thing that saves this business is The staff is super nice and not enough sit down restaurants in town. read more

Chicken was almost as hard as me, waiter does not know how to serve. The environment was judgmental and they charged 8 dollars for a tea

The food had no flavor it was like trying to eat cardboard will not be returning. So sad this place used to be good.

This place was right in front of my hotel which made it an easy choice to select but I could also tell from the parking lot that it was popular. The service was very prompt and courteous promptly taking my order and checking on me regularly. Chips and salsa with cheese sauce came right out. The cheese sauce was a little runny for my liking but had good taste. The burrito was HUGE! Excellent flavor and taste and temperature was perfect to dive right into as well. The margarita was one of the meat I've ever had so you can't go wrong there. read more

Delicious authentic Mexican food! Always friendly & attentive staff. When we are in the Gonzales area, we always eat here!

We were in the area and our kids wanted Mexican food. We looked up the reviews and thought let's give it a try. All I can say is ughhh Maybe the drinks are goo do t know just had iced tea that tasted awful. Everything was as if they get their food from good value. It was dirty and a bit sketchy over priced for the area. We all got sick after as well. Will NEVER go again the extra star is generous to say the least read more

Good, predictable Mexican fare. We had the Hot Burtito and Chicken Verde Enchiladas. Both were tasty. Service is fast and friendly.

Not good IMO not very much good Mexican food in Oklahoma. Dry chicken, no bell peppers in chicken fajitas, lack of seasoning. Friendly that's why 3 stars read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Went here with my mom and 6 year old tonight 1-5-24. My mom ordered the fajitas like she ALWAYS does. She asked the waitress melissa (which was rude as shit from the beginning btw) to please cook the onions a TINY bit longer to where they were not raw. Finally our food comes out and my moms plate is nothing but burnt black onions and peppers( they also threw the rest of her burnt onions on my plate) my mom never complains and just started eating but when biting into hard DRY steak and chicken she put her fork down and didn't say a word. Melissa comes over and asks if everything's okay and my mom politely asked why the food was burnt and dry. Melissa goes "you asked for it that way" told my mom "give me that I'll take it out of your way" didn't ask to fix it absolutely nothing. She goes I'll take it off your bill. As we go to check out our bill is up at the front with the "manager" and as she was ringing us up we noticed a 5.99 charge and asked what it was. She said because my mom complained about her food that they charged her for the set up. (You only get charged a set up for chips/salsa if you do not order) everyone at the table had a meal. Melissa failed to tell us that she charged 5.99 for something my mom only ate because she had every intention on eating the meal she ordered. Melissa also told the "manager" that my mom said that she'd just eat the set up which NEVER came out of her mouth. We called up there to speak to the owner but yesse refused to put him/her on the phone and repeatedly said that she won't get him involved because he doesn't know what's going on and he doesn't speak English! We absolutely loved el rodeo until tonight! Absolutely terrible service tonight all the way around and the food was horrible! read more

Doesn't look like much from the outside but Wow the food was great Any time you're in the area this place is a must stop. I'm here from Now Jersey and have not been able to find anything comparable there. Just my humble opinion. Carne Asada Tacos were terrific. read more

Tiny place right off I-35. We stumbled in after a production shoot in the early afternoon. Chips, queso and salsa were average. Very bland. The lunch fajitas didn't come out 'sizzling' and the taco weres blah. Bland food but fine service. Cute hole in the wall and not terrible. But wouldn't go back. read more

Great food authentic Mexican style. Beer is cold and the free salsa and cheese dip you get before your meal is superb. My favorite dish is the street taco and they offer many different varieties of meats read more

Thank God for Senor Lopez because this place is HORRIBLE. Stale chips, how do you screw up the chips??? Salsa is probably out of a jar, and the guac (if you mess up the guac you are dead to me) was horrid. I'll never go back and I'm super embarrassed because I took my daughter there for her birthday. Should have gone to Taco Bell! read more

I know I put 4 stars but it is really a 3 1/2 star place. Just above average. We stopped while passing through town. Great presentation, friendly staff. The salsa tasted like chopped tomatoes with a kick. However the kick was too hot for my Hubby. I did like that they served a simple Queso along with the hot sauce. The missing stars are for the temperature of my chili relleno, The verde salsa was not very warm and they left a lot of the chili seeds in the relleno. I did not finish the relleno because of the seeds. Everything else was good. The Resturant serves beer and margaritas. And I liked the atmosphere. Simple but not run down. Ladies bathroom was clean. read more

simply awesome. lightly fried catfish with shrimp and veggies. personal, responsive service. beautiful wood furniture.

This is by far the worst Mexican food I have ever had. Senior Lopez is extraordinarily better. BY FAR. Chips taste like Fritos, queso has no taste at all, chicken drier than saw dust, rice tastes like white rice straight from the pot with nothing added. I would not eat again if it was given to me for free. If you want Mexican I would recommend Taco Bell or Mayo over this place. read more

I had the Deloera and a strawberry margarita. I must say, those two items were quite tasty, as was the salsa that came before the meal. Unfortunately, the chips were stale, the queso (while free) was lumpy and tasteless. The worst part was the flies! I had to keep batting them away through the entire meal - gross! This review would easily be four starts if not for the flies. The service was prompt and courteous and the price was good. I was pleasantly surprised. Just get rid of the flies... read more

I didn't have a good experience the first time i went YEARS ago but thought maybe it was just a bad day. This time was not a good experience either. The food was horrible. My grandson got the taquitos off the kids menu and they seemed to be frozen store bought and were cooked hard as rocks. The chips were hard, the queso was bland. I won't go back. read more

el rodeo never disappoints. every time i come here for lunch my experience is always best. i've never had better service at any other restaurant, and the food was quickly out and the best, genuine quality. if you're in guthrie and hungry, go to el rodeo read more

I was traveling through Oklahoma and found this family owned restaurant. I had a plate of Tacos Pastor and they were delicious. My associate had chicken fajitas and he said they were very good. I am knowledgeable about Mexican food having grown up on the border with Mexico and living in San Antonio now. You will be happy making a stop here. read more

By far my all time favorite Mexican Restaurant, ever since Nino's closed down in OKC. No one can compare to their fresh chips and salsa. My wife regularly brings their chips home instead of buying store bought. read more

It's okay, look fairly dirty. The food is much better than other Mexican places in town, for instance, compared Senior Lopez's food Rodeo is 100 percent better. The salsa isn't a can of tomato sauce sprinkled with some jalepeno seeds. It's addicting. The service is a 1,000 times better. I found Senior Lopez is rude. I found Senior Lopez so lacking, I can't believe any of the reviews. Everytime I drive by I count cars. I'm just waiting for them to go belly up. This is how unbelievable my experience was here. Safely to say, the worst dinning experience I've had in my life time. Rodeo has great food, good service, salsa is actually salsa...Do yourself a favor if you haven't tried it do! Though the decor isn't there and the place looks dirty, I'd eat there anyday of the week compared to the joke over there called Senior Lopez. read more

The queso might be 1% cheese? They do not offer an a la cart menu, and would not allow me to order off the children's menu . Also, they did not bring the proper set ups and too few menus. read more

The food is the best it The best of authentic Mexican plus if it your birthday the make a small party

Another family owned and operated Mexican Restaurant for the OKC metro. If you're up towards Guthrie and want some Mexican this is worth a stop. They have all the usual dishes. I usually get a chicken chimichanga, or maybe a flatua. read more

Since my first visit, they've expanded the menu. Still a solid Tex-Mex oasis on the prairie.

Dad wanted to go here and I'm glad he did. The beers with fresh lime and salt on edges was a nice touch I had not seen or tasted before. The chips and little bowls of cheese and salsa were tasty and the portions huge. Highly recommend their chicken enchilada and beef taco combo. Dad liked the chicken quesadilla a meal in itself. Friendly and prompt service. Decor average but clean. read more
