"Located in the Licton Springs neighborhood in North Seattle, El Patio’s wide array of Central and South American fare is worth the trek from downtown. If you are searching for a quick tour of Latin American cuisine, start your meal with the Salvadoran yuca con chicharrones (tender-boiled cassava with crispy bits of fried pork), move on to Colombia’s national dish, the bandeja paisa (a plate of carne asada, sausage, empanadas, rice, beans, arepa, eggs, avocado, fried pork and sweet plantains), and finish with the quintessential Latin American dessert, caramel flan. If you are dining in, El Patio has both indoor and outdoor seating. Otherwise, you can order your meal for takeout or delivery." - Elizabeth Delgado, Chandler Petersen
