El Patio Rio offers a nice relaxing atmosphere for diners, with a cozy patio that provides a perfect NM vibe. The food never disappoints, and the customer service is friendly and attentive. The Carne Adovada plate is cooked correctly, and the potatoes are toasted beautifully and seasoned wonderfully. The breakfast sopapilla with red chile is highly recommended, and the red chile consistently remains excellent. The guacamole is fresh and tasty, with crispy chips that have just the right amount of salt, and the margaritas are perfect. The outdoor seating is kid-friendly, and a guitar player entertains children on the patio. Service can be inconsistent at times, with long waits for drinks, but overall the staff are friendly and quick to offer suggestions. The chile rellenos are a good alternative, and the sopapillas are great as well. The restaurant is a hidden gem in the North Valley, making it a top choice for authentic food and a relaxing dining experience.
