Lunch Time! Not always a reliable indicator of the restaurant’s quality, but check the parking lot. As a general, rule if you see several lawn service trucks with equipment trailers behind them, or dented white vans, with gray splotches of primer showing where the paint is peeling, and paint-stained ladders on top, that is a good indication that the service is fast; the food is authentic. A working man’s Mexican restaurant. None of that here, at the exclusive, “Señior Panchos Forest Ridge.” Lexus and Beemers out front.
I have been to the other two Senior Pancho’s, Broken Arrow location, and Catoosa. Both fair to average. Not worth a trip back. What the hell, I haven’t tried this one…..I am here to get it checked off the list.
So much for the BS. Impressive, 5 stars from me. The food is attractive on the plate, tasty and properly seasoned. The plates are big and filled. The service is on point. In addition to the decent mild salsa, there are two varieties that have the fire. They will light you up. Ask for them (see pictures). Fantastic. My wife had the Burrito Chili Verde. A large flour tortilla filled with properly cooked carnitas and covered with chili verde. Me, I had the Enchiladas Mexicanas; all packed end to end with tasty fillings: chicken with green sauce, cheese inside with queso sauce, and ground beef with red sauce. Both plates garnished with fresh crisp lettuce, pico de gallo or guacamole. These two meals are recommended.
Inside, comfortable seating, attractively decorated. Doesn’t look like a cheap Mexican restaurant. Hardly even looks like a Mexican restaurant.

Read moreVery disappointed in my first visit!!! The place is nice, staff is nice. Prices on lunch menu is a CRAZY EXPENSIVE for lunch menu!. Way more than 3 tequilas further east and the Los mariachis at 193 and county line behind QT on 71st.
Food: very disgusting for me and the two other guest with me.
How can you screw up "Huevos Rancheros!? NO you don't just scramble a couple eggs on a plate with rice and beans on side and you damn sure don't bring a couple soft flour tortillas with them!!!!!
Every where I order these here anyplace in Oklahoma or other states the authentic huevos rancheros starts with lightly fried corn tortillas as the base. Then you top them with a fried egg, some homemade tomato salsa, and a sprinkle of cheese. You can also add beans, avocado, and a bit of cilantro for that extra flavor. The rice is bland and tasty like cardboard but the refried beans were really good. (Only thing good) my brother stated it was a good thing he smoked some 420 before lunch and is the only reason he ate what he had gotten
Who the heck thinks plain scrambles eggs are huevos rancheros?
Ate a few bites and fed the rest to my dogs.... My friends burrito was...
