Things to do in Ardmore
1. El Tapatio Cafe

Be aware that there are two El Tapatio's in Ardmore, so if you are meeting someone, coordinate address. It doesn't look like much from the outside and inside isn't much better. However, the food is good and large portions. We didn't seem many smiles from the staff, but they got the food out pretty quick. Don't plan on sitting and visiting. Seats are hard and the atmosphere is loud and lacking any invitation except to eat and go. Portion size and flavor are the only thing that got this rating. All else would be considerably lower.

El Chicoâs is the first Mex food restaurant I ever eat at in Lubbock Texas 50 yrs ago. Been a very long time since I eaten at one. Taste exactly the same. Was fun.

My son and I opted for Chili's as we were passing through Ardmore via I-35 South. Our family hasn't been impressed lately with our Chili's experiences, but my son wanted wings so we gave the Ardmore Chili's a shot. Happy to say we weren't disappointed. We were seated right away; the service was better quite good, and the wings were quite good. No complaints at all. This is an old school Chili's. Thumbs up.
