Thankfully, El Rancho is the best and only Mexican restaurant in town. You know it’s good when random people recommend El Rancho. Great place to hideout from a passing thunderstorm. The waitress was really nice. Food was good.

Easy to miss, hard to forget. Kids aged 4 to 11 loved their foods. Great variety of food. The Mexican dishes are authentic and delicious. My wife and I loved the experience. I embarrassed myself and spilled my drink. The staff was helpful and kind. If you’re hungry, everyone will leave satisfied!

A true hidden gem in the beautiful little town of Talimena. I love riding my bike up here when visiting Broken Bow and Hochatown. Fantastic food and friendly service. The Mexican guacamole are queso are excellent starters. The combos are great the chimichanga and flautas are my favorite.

This place is amazing!!! The employees are very nice! The food is delicious. I ordered guacamole and chips, and it was delicious! I rarely leave reviews for places, but this place was so good that I HAD too! This is a great place to stop by while traveling through Oklahoma! It’s also very affordable. If you pass by this place, It’s worth it to turn around to eat here.
