My husband and I stopped in here for the first time and placed a to-go order since we were in town for his softball tournament. We were met with the friendliest staff!! every single one was so nice and making sure we were taken care of even just to place our to go order! They checked on us to make sure we placed our order with someone, the time it took from placing our order to it being handed to us was maybe 8 minutes. We ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and the bacon ranch fried chicken sandwich! Great food quality that matched with the service quality - 10/10. Thank you for the staff for making our first stop in memorable EVEN for just a grab and go. Such sweet humans running this place read more

We happened upon The Rodeo in Creek Nation on our drive to Broken Arrow and it was amazing! Mexican food was great! Chips fresh and fajitas plentiful. Amber was an incredible sever and the Amish pie was a special treat. Everyone was friendly and the restaurant was open, clean, and welcoming. So happy with this highway find! Thank you for your hospitality to these two Texans!! read more

Good place for fresh made food at reasonable prices. We had the steak fingers lunch special and a combination Mexican dinner. Both were good although I was surprised the taco was in a flour tortilla instead of a crisp shell. The salad that came with the steak fingers was especially tasty. Also tried the strawberry cream pie, one of a good selection of pies made by area Minnomite women. It was pretty good. Excellent service, too. read more

This used to be one of our favorite places when we visited Okmulgee. We decided to eat here after having not been in several months. We were disappointed. The food quality was not the same and they skimped on your food portions. My husband and I received about half the food portions that we would normally get which was very disappointing. The food lacked in flavor. Usually there is enough for left overs. Not this time. The service was also not that good. The server rarely checked on us. We had to motion her a couple of times. I doubt if we will eat here again. read more

We visit Rodeo whenever we're in town to visit my father-in-law. It's a neat little place. The food is good, and the service has always been excellent. If you are in Okmulgee, and looking for a bite of Mexican food, I would say to give rodeo a try. read more

Pretty good TexMex and American comfort food. Friendly staff, interesting rodeo themed decor. We tried the chicken fried steak, the Philly cheesesteak and the lunchtime burrito special. All were delicious! We'll be back..... read more

In town for business and had to give a try. Great service, great atmosphere, great food! I had the fresh made steak fingers (these are hard to come by), mashed potatoes and corn. Delicious! The rolls are on point! If you are hungry for a good home cooked meal, this plan is a must. read more

Cute little place with amazing steak fingers and mashed potatoes and gravy! if you're passing through to visit the track this is a great place to stop. read more

A decent restaurant in okmulgee is hard to find as it is is far most smaller Oklahoma towns. The Rodeo is a cute themed eatery that leans into its country roots. A Mexican restaurant with a generous selection of Americano offerings with the practical venue of a barn like dining area The food is passable with mild level of spice. Good for small groups or a small event. read more

Server She did not say her name. But, she was helpful with the WiFi. Our server seemed to be the only one without a name badge. After bringing the food, she poofed. Did not see her again. She finally returned. Ambiance This place is a hodge podge of tex-mex and American Food The chips n salsa arrived Pronto, and the chips were warm. The salsa tasted canned (tinny). The Pollo con Queso was served quite warm. It came with flour tortillas and a hot bed of seasoned Mexican rice. The chicken was very tender and the accompaning side order of grilled shrimp was very good. The Pollo Felix was "wonderful" The beans tasted homemade and fresh. Overall Most of the servers smiled as they walked by our table. The food is quite good. But, sadly the downside is the servers. I get the place is busy. But, dang... Military They do not have a Military discount, but they claim that there is a senor discount. read more

I'm not sure how some other rate this any less than 5 stars. Food was amazing, the service was timely and attentive. The owner stopped by many time to see how things were. I was driving through for work and caught this restaurant out of the corner of my eye, glad I stopped and got to enjoy it. read more

This ain't no goat roping. This is an authentic Mexican restaurant that leans more towards the Tex-Mex than traditional Mexican food. If you are not into the new American food, then for you, they offer old time rural ethnic diner food, like hamburgers, chicken fried steak, okra, and chicken strips. Mexican food is the new American food. Mexican restaurants are multiplying like the late summer web worms in the August trees of Oklahoma. If you don't like Mexican food and you are traveling across rural Oklahoma, you will starve if you don't have a granola bar and a banana in your glove box. In some small towns your only other option is a blistered wiener off the roller grill at the gas station. Mexican food everywhere is the new normal. For sure in Oklahoma, diner food is becoming history. Just a memory like the recipes found in the old Southern Living cook book your grandma had. What is really strange about The Rodeo's set up is that it is like a small-town road side diner, not a Mexican joint. The rural theme is rodeo, as the name implies. Memorabilia, shiny barn tin covered walls, trimmed with patriotic red white and blue fans all around, emphasize that theme. The TV has bull riding and roping playing continuously. It doesn't stop there. The service matches the old school diner motif, with prompt friendly attention from waitresses, that are all probably named Flo. If your name is not "sugar" it will be here. Your check is hand written and you pay up front on the way out. Don't forget to put a tooth pick in your mouth before you walk out the door, or you will look like a tourist. The strange part, this is a Mexican food restaurant, that also puts out large plates of equally delicious diner food. Perfect salsa, crispy chips and a spot-on salsa picante (ask for it) kept our hands and mouths busy while studying the menu. My wife can't pass up an Indian taco. That is what she had. Excellent, but Mexican food for me. The # 2, a beef taco. a cheese filled relleno and a beef enchilada with red sauce. The meal was plenty of food but, it did not come with beans and rice. I ordered a side of beans to fully evaluate the kitchen staff's expertise. All perfect. The picture describes the food better than I can with words. Talking with the owner while settling up the bill, I was curious how they could do such a good job with the two styles of food offered on the large menu. She informed me that there were actually two kitchens in the restaurant. A necessity. The superb experienced cook, running the Mexican side of the restaurant is, well let me explain it this way, "this ain't his first Rodeo." This is the best restaurant in Okmulgee period ...prove me wrong. read more

We drove thru here all the time and kept seeing the signs. So decided on our last trip to give this place a try. It was a terrible experience. The salsa was watered down and so runny it wouldn't stay on the chips. They were out of A1 sauce after they served me the chicken fried steak. The baked potato was wrong twice. The Hamburger order wasn't correct. We kept getting interrupted every 2-3 minutes. And when I paid, they said the receipt printer wasn't working. My curiosity has been solved and won't be back read more

Big food portions. I ordered chicken ranch sandwich, it was good. Three other dishes were ordered, salad, Philly steak and a fish plate. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Service and ambiance are great. I'll return if I'm in the area again. read more

The first time i purchased Mexican, a Polo con-queso. Literally chicken with no flavor with a slightly spicy cheese poured over top. rice and beans that was inedible. While there the people next to me ordered steak, and man it looked good. And i love steak (If you follow my belly rubs you would have already known that). So, this time I ordered a Rib-Eye steak (Medium), Loaded baked potato and a salad. The only thing that was even close to decent on this meal was the salad! (It is rated as an appetizer above). I get the steak and the potato and man it looks good. I mean right out of a magazine good! I cut into it, and it is well done! (So well done that when I was done consuming what i could, there was very little juices at all on the plate). The flavor of the steak, what little there was had the freezer burnt flavor of meat. There was no salt or pepper used at all during the cooking process. The Potato was a warm raw potato with the fixings on it. Looked good, literally could only smash parts of it. Oh well. Then my waitress plaid peekaboo with me for the next 15 minutes! never saw her again until she came out with the check. One of the worse $40 meals I have ever eaten or tried to consume. Stick a fork in it. It's done! It's Toast, Fat boy has sadly left the building and will not be back. " PRO'S: CLEAN CON'S: STEAK WAS OVER - OVER COOKED PATATO WAS RAW - WAY UNDERCOOKED MEAT HAD NO GOOD FLAVOR - SIZE WAS THE SMALL REDEMING QUALITY read more

I tried their famous chicken fried steak, and it was not quite to my liking. Great server though.

Without Equal in Quality, Convenience and Service! Authentic comfort food. The (Chicken-Fried) Steak is as advertised. The food arrived to the table by food runners hot and tasty. The advertised steak covers the plate to the edges as pictured, in Facebook advertisement. And, every bite to the edge is tenderized and double battered to crisp elation. I recommend highly, because it is closer than The Country Cafe (Red Cabin limited days/hours) in Enterprise, (South Central) Oklahoma read more

Had lunch at Rodeos today- they were very busy & I loved my #9 lunch special, my only complaint was my husband's hamburger steak was a little tough & the waitress didn't listen at all to what he wanted for sides ...my husband's order was wrong but never said anything...I just think she was overwhelmed & needs to relax & just concentrate on her customers seated read more

Great Service and food!! I travel often between Dallas and Tulsa and then usually stop at known chain restaurants for something quick. If you have the time to sit down and enjoy a good meal go ahead and stop. I enjoyed the atmosphere the food and the service. Family friendly and prices are on point. Only disappointment, no home made flower tortillas. read more

service was great but the food, it was the worst tasteless meal I've ever had in my life , chicken fried steak sucked very bad , no flavor , over breaded, mashed potatoes felt like playdoo and absolutely no taste at all , not coming back read more

Great food and service, what more can you ask for? Everything was delicious! Would go there anytime.

Shrimp tacos were the best I've ever had and I'm from New Jersey-home of the seafood. the server nearly cried when I told her I needed to tell her something important, she was great and the service was wonderful. It's great to know that the people working there wanted to hear my opinion on the food and I just wanna say, their food hits different, I'd recommend their food. Have a great day!

Honestly best value we've had in awhile. Food was delicious , portions were huge and the bill was very inexpensive! We were visiting but would definitely go back if in the area again. read more

We absolutely loved this place! Service was excellent and the food came out in a very timely manner. Prices were reasonable and great for the amount of food they serve you. Salsa and rice could've had a little more flavor but that's the only thing that made it a 4 not a 5. The environment was good and the servers were super sweet. read more

Food and waitstaff were exemplary. I was visiting from out of town and took my sister and her friend. I got the hot hamburger--very good. One of the girls got chicken fried steak as big as the plate and the other had catfish that looked delicious. So many choices and all very tasty and fresh. They also have Mexican which i want to try soon. SO MANY CHOICES! I would go to this restaurant even if I was in OKC or similar with more eating establishments. It's that good. read more

The Rodeo was fantastic with accommodating about 35-40 guests in our party. We had multiple waitresses that all worked together as a team to get us taken care of in a timely manner. All the food was excellent and large portion sizes. Chicken fried steak and the burgers were big hits along with many other plates. While most of us traveled from out of state, we felt warm and welcome. Thank you again! read more

Don't eat there. I ate there and got food poisoning. It was a chicken fried steak. I had a friend with me. He got food poisoning, too.

The food is always amazing! And if something isn't up to par one of the amazing wait staff will make sure and get it fixed as fast as they can! They are always smiling! The place is very clean! Weather it me the Mexican or the American food I get it's always cooked just right! I definitely recommend the rodeo anytime ask what's good around town! read more

Food is good, prices fair and service is friendly. The seating layout of the restaurant could use a little aesthetic help but it's a negligible issue. read more

Kids kicking seat connected to our booth was annoying. Kids high pitched echo in the tin covered walls hurt sensitive ears. Indian taco was dry and too thick, made it hard to eat. Service was lax, yet there were waitress running around everywhere... Just couldn't find ours anywhere, so I guess a refill was not wanted‍. Won't be back. read more

Food was great Kalecia was very helpful and polite, recommend this business.
