In some aspects the Lopez Grill was an unexpected surprise. The food was very good, but what was different about the Lopez Grill (that you typically don’t see in small town Oklahoma Mexican restaurants) was that the owners are trying to convey hint of contemporary and professional presence as seen in some of the high end Mexican restaurants. The interior was nicely decorated. The really unusual thing was that the waiters all wore a crisply pressed shirts and a tie! Now that is something you just don’t see too often anymore, anywhere! Their service is good. This location has an outdoor dining area too. This is a small chain of four restaurants located in Muskogee, Guthrie and Wagoner, Oklahoma. I have eaten at the Lopez Grill in Muskogee. I believe this location is better. Their menus are on line at their website if you plan on visiting any of their restaurants. We had the #7. Enchilada, Chile Relleno, Rice & Beans and the Enchiladas Roughers which are: three Shredded Chicken Enchiladas topped with their Special Habanero Sauce, served with Rice & Beans. The #7 was a large plate of Mexican food items flavored and presented in a traditional style. The Enchiladas Roughers (one of their signature dishes) were three enchiladas packed with seasoned chicken breast meat and covered in a very mild queso that had a touch of habanero pepper. I like hot food, but I made sure to ask how hot the sauce was before I ordered. It is mild, so I added a chili toreado to spice it up. It too was a generous plate of food. I didn’t give up on the three enchiladas, though until I was done. Very good!

Read moreStarting with the positive. Food was great. Restaurant was clean and the staff was friendly. Now service. After being seated, we waited 15 minutes before we were offered drinks. The drinks came quickly along with the chips and salsa. We placed our order and got our food quickly. That was the last time we saw our waiter. Seriously nobody. Crickets. We enjoyed our water and our lunch. We had to wait 30 plus minister we finished before we were able to flag someone down to get our check. No how was your food no hope you come again. He handed me the ticket and said" Check out at the door." When I we to pay the guy bend the counter I interrupted the gMe he was playing on his phone. The cashier mumbled something incoherently, took my card rang up the ticket and gave the card back. Wow. I've never felt like my buy lunch at a restaurant was an inconvenience. Never before today that is. I'm not sure I will...
Read moreI saw the manager in the blue shirt eat some chips and queso out of the food window from the kitchen and then serve the queso and chips to the table next to us. I am very angry that someone thinks it's okay to touch people's food or eat off people's plates before they serve it to them. And this was the manager!!!!!! I came here for a birthday dinner and when I ordered I asked if they had bell peppers in the meat on a chimichanga, they told me no. So I ordered it. When I received it it had bell peppers in it. I went to ask why they were trying to make me sick, and they offered to replace it with something else, so out of the party of 4 I could not start eating until everyone else was done thanks to them! I am not from here but someone needs to report these people to the health department for eating off people's plates and then...
