El Patio Restaurant — Restaurant in Wichita

The wife and I have been eating at El Patio for over 40 years and the last 3 years every Saturday for lunch after we get off work. This Saturday 7-9 22 we stopped my and was given the same old menu and we ordered one of our favorites a smothered pork burrito the menu still showed $8.00. When we received our burrito we noticed it was a lot smaller than they were before but we said nothing they were still good. So we went up to pay (they never give you a ticket you just go to the cash register and they collect your money) the waitress says $22.04 I look up at her and said that’s not right it should be $17.20 then she says no we had a increase today the smothered pork burrito is $10.25 now. My wife said to her then you need to change your menu prices and she says we plan on getting new ones. They have lost us as a customer we will never go back and in our business we get a lot of customers who ask us of somewhere to eat that’s close and we always recommend El Patio but that will not happen anymore we will not go back and we will never recommend them again. By the way there menu online as of today shows the smothered pork...

It is a traditional Mexican restaurant that does it the old-fashioned way! You will not find fillers in place of the real product. The chips are freshly made throughout the day. The aroma will tell you that you came to the right spot. The sauces are great. My son and I went on Saturday at 12:30 and we got the last booth empty. We had chicken and steak fajitas for two. Plus white cheese sauce. Each of us got a plate with fried beans, fresh rice, cheese, sour cream and Guacamole. Plus three four tortillas each. Then a big hot plate of fresh meat right off the grilled.

The place can seat close to 40 people. The prices are very reasonable. The service is great and that is very important in my opinion. If you are in a hurry, it is the wrong place to go. Unless you call ahead...

If I could put a zero for service I would. Our waitress was rude. She messed up my order and I asked her to replace it. She gave me a horrible attitude then proceeded to go talk about me to her coworker( where I could hear everything she said). She didn’t return to my table after that. When I was paying to leave she called the owner and forced me to talk to the owner.. when I left she started screaming at me and made it clear the owner was her grandmother and she wasn’t going to be talked to about her attitude. She was completely unprofessional and she did sit on her phone majority of time I was there. I’ve been to this restaurant numerous times and have had her as a waitress before but this time is has made me not...
