    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.....

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Salad was decent.

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

    Steak done right!

    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

This place was very clean, in and around the restaurant and the restrooms were very clean as well, which is important when you are on a long road trip like we were. The ambiance and style of the restaurant was great, too, with a throw-back vibe to the 50s, which I love. There were so many great 50s photos and memorabilia, which helps patrons step back in time when life was much simpler back then. The food was great, too! Various breakfast items were ordered by our group and it was delicious! The biscuits I had were so yummy, and had to be made from scratch. The staff was so courteous and friendly. They were very attentive to our needs. I haven't experienced service this good in a restaurant in a really long time, so this was a great change to step in to a place with warm, friendly staff. Please give this place a try. Good food, cool environment, clean restrooms, and super friendly staff. You can't go wrong eating here.

I expected to see the Fonz walk in at any moment. It was a blast from the past. Our server, Jennifer, took good care of us. We didn't have to wait long for anything. She was quick, friendly, and professional. I got a chicken fried steak, baked potato and fried okra. I started to get mashed potatoes but I asked if the potatoes were powdered. They were, so I got a baked potato instead. It was a good choice. The okra was fried to perfection and the serving was so large I had to leave half. I liked that I was able to order a small portion of chicken fried steak. The cream gravy is why I order chicken fried steak and this cream gravy did not disappoint. My cousin got the special which included soup, salad, and a sandwich. My other cousin got a chef salad. We all enjoyed our lunch and looking at the decorations.

I can't comment on the hamburger other than the ones I saw on another diner's table. They looked old school fantastic. We had the catfish basket and the Mona's Chicken basket. There were generous portions in each meal and unquestionably freshly made. The baskets come with one side option. Mona's has a lot to choose from. My wife had the okra and an extra side of Mac and Cheese with her basket. I had the house made onion rings. I didn't care for the Mona's Chicken. Instead of strips of chicken breast, it was small bite sized chunks. It was just too much breading. After a few bites I ordered a side of cream gravy for dipping. That improved the meal. The catfish had a nice crust, moist inside, but the flavor was a little off. Okra, mac and cheese, average. Hushpuppies excellent. And then there were the Onion Rings. These were excellent. Large fresh, wide rings of sweet onion lightly battered, then fried to perfection. Crispy crunchy on the outside and crisp fresh onion on the inside. Onion rings are mandatory with any meal here. Probably the perfect meal here is the Burger and the Rings. But there's more. Fried pies filled with fruits that represent most of the colors in a rainbow. I couldn't pass them up for tomorrow's breakfast. Peach, Apple, Cherry and Apricot all went home with us. Great with this morning's cup of coffee. I bet they are even better when served hot and fresh in the diner.
