Patina Restaurant Group recently hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the launch of its management of El Tiempo Cantina at Choctaw Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
The restaurant, located beneath the first-base corner of the former Texas Rangers ballpark, offers a streetside entrance and sits just steps from Globe Life Field – where Delaware North serves as the hospitality and retail partner for the Rangers.
The event was attended by representatives from Patina, Delaware North Sportservice, the City of Arlington, the Greater Arlington Chamber of Commerce and the Texas Rangers.
Guests at the Arlington location can expect El Tiempo’s signature dishes, including its skirt steak fajitas, hand-pressed tortillas, and the brand’s secret recipe margaritas – favorites that have helped the family-owned restaurant thrive across its 10 Houston-area locations.
