El Patio Rio offers a nice relaxing atmosphere for diners. The Carne Adovada plate was cooked correctly, and the potatoes were toasted beautifully and seasoned wonderfully. However, the beans were a bit undercooked, and one diner found a small rock in their dish. The sopapillas were great as well.
While most diners enjoyed their meals, including the soap stuffed with carne adobada and the delicious red chili, one customer reported getting food poisoning, potentially from the carne adobada. The chile rellenos were recommended as an alternative. The guacamole was also praised, but the New Mexican-style queso was not as well-received as Texan queso.
The outdoor seating was noted as being kid-friendly, with a guitar player entertaining the children. However, the service was inconsistent, with long waits for drinks, even for customers who ordered before others.
