" Incredible spot! I brought family here while visiting OKC, and they loved it too! The menu has a great variety, and everything we tried was bursting with authentic flavors. The tortas and tacos were the highlights. The service was diligent, though they could use an extra staff member during busy hours. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience that I will cherish!

" El Pariente is a culinary treasure! The burgers are a revelation, and I could feel the passion in every bite. The restaurant's cozy atmosphere paired with friendly staff makes for a delightful experience. I was pleasantly surprised by the reasonable prices considering the quality. Although the wait could be long, I believe true culinary experiences are worth the time. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food is wonderful here! The tortas are fresh and incredibly flavorful. The welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff made my visit lovely. However, the wait time was longer than I expected. Still, I believe this place is worth the wait for such delicious food. Every time I eat here, I am always satisfied! I'll be back for those tortas. " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot rave enough about El Pariente! This place serves the best authentic Mexican food I've had in the city. From the moment I stepped in, I was taken by the vibrant decor and friendly staff. I ordered the signature torta, and it was bursting with flavor. The bread was fresh, and the fillings were generous. I will definitely be back to try their famous hamburgers next time! Highly recommend if you're looking for a real taste of Mexico. " (*Curated Review*)

" Excellent food, but I must mention that the place could use a bit more cleaning, particularly in the bathroom area. The food itself was delightful. I had a spicy burrito with their house-made sauces, which were sooo good! Authentic flavors that reminded me of home. The service was friendly, but my order took a little longer than I hoped. I think with some quick attention to cleanliness, this place could be top-notch. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Pariente has some of the best tacos in town! I'm returning for sure. The ambience is inviting, and the core menu items have a unique twist that stands out from other Mexican restaurants in the area. Also, a special mention for their extra crispy fries. They made each bite enjoyable! While I experienced a longer wait, I believe it was a result of the high demand—they deserve every bit of it for the quality they serve. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Pariente is truly a hidden gem! The moment you enter, it exudes a warmth that draws you in. I ordered the burger, and honestly, it was nothing like the typical American version—think juicy, flavorful with a twist that makes it stand out. You can taste the authenticity in every bite. The fries were perfectly crispy too! Although the wait could be on the longer side, especially during peak hours, it's well worth your patience for the delectable taste. " (*Curated Review*)
