Not TexMex, OkieMex and not pretentious CaliMex. It is a version of traditional Mexican food nicely seasoned, but not spicy. The portions are generous, the food is fair quality, the salsas are mild with pleasant flavors, but little fire. No Table service, order and pick up at the counter. Chips extra $.
Here is the critical deficiency, cold food. The big platters of food are served on paper plates.
The food is available on the counter, when they call your order up. At that point the food is reasonably warm. Set the thin paper plates on the cool table and within minutes you are eating the equivalent of room temperature left overs. The food quickly loses its appeal. It makes you appreciate that ubiquitous Mexican restaurant servers warning, “Plates are Hot!”
We had the Mole con Pollo and a Burrito Mojado (Al Pastor with salsa verde). The Mole con Pollo was two big drumsticks liberally smothered with a delicious mole. The Burrito Mojado was packed and covered with green sauce. Unfortunately, the flavors of the al pastor faded as the temperature dropped. Beans and rice, only warm, quickly cooled to room temperature. The meals would have been much more pleasing if they had been served very hot and on a hot platter.
I don’t recommend the restaurant. There are better options scattered in the Little Mexico part of Tulsa.

Read moreI'm leaving a two star review for the NEW cooks. We used to visit here weekly because the food was so good. The steak burritos were the best and it kept us coming back. A few weeks ago I noticed that the kitchen staff had completely changed.
Brand new faces who clearly had no idea what they were doing. You can watch them cook and see they are unfamiliar. The results are a night and day difference from the old food. We waited a few weeks to see if MAYBE the old staff would return. Maybe they were on vacation? We hoped.
We gave it another go today to see if things had returned to the awesome they used to be. Not so much. The new cooks have no idea how to prepare the food the way it used to be and the old staff, it seems, are not returning. As things are the food is simply not worth the trip or the price.
Myself and my coworkers will not be returning to try again. I will miss the great food this place used to serve. If anybody knows where the old kitchen staff went, please let us know. If they are cooking somewhere else I...
Read moreGiving it 3 stars the, the service was ok. The place inside overall clean outside looks pretty crappy. The food is mediocre, i see all these comments saying is the best mexican good they had, to tell you the sad truth its the worst mexican food i have ever had, burrito had some flavor, rice was poorly excuted, burrito had a llot of grease, over all experience was ok, the aguas frescas were horrible, horchata taste like water and sugar, i have not found a good kexican restaurant in Tulsa i think i found where i am investing. Green salsa was probably the best thing about this place. The comments here had me stoked to come and eat here, kind of...
