Stopped here for a quick lunch. 1) Ambiance of the place is okay. Place is cleaned and welcoming. 2) they have a cart with different sauces and veggies. 3) We were quickly sat. Got some chips and corn meals sauce or gravy. It was good. 4) Food was delicious. I would come back again. I recommend you give them a try. read more

So my new favorite Mexican dish is chori pollo (chicken with cheese and chorizo) so now I measure using that. Cafe Garcia has just added this dish and was great!! I didn't even need to touch the popular salsa bar they have. The staff was great and our chip bowl stayed full! This is a great place to eat and I highly recommend the chicken with chorizo! read more

Update: we had not gone here in a few years. My husband and I stopped in for dinner. My husband ordered street tacos and I got enchiladas. My husband's taco's meat looked unappetizing and dry. He said they had no flavor. The salsa bar is not what it used to be for sure. My enchiladas looked and tasted like the frozen tv dinner ones. Not good. The queso was watered-down canned cheeses. Again, not good. We won't be going back. PRO: they now they have a bar. read more

Food was disgusting. Tastes old or like it was sitting out all day. Service was okay, they only had two people running around. The restaurant was dirty and smelt really gross. 80% of the tables where DIRTY and had plates and stuff on them the entire time. The cheese looks radioactive and the salsa bar was pathetic. This place has really gone down hill. I'd give it half a star if I could. read more

Came in on a Saturday after the Enid Comic Avon next door at Stride Center. Thought how bad could it be...? Should have waited until I returned to the city. Never got refills on drinks. Santa Fe Salad was served with Fake Ranch packets that was made up of corn syrup and soybean oil...WTF...? The Beef nachos were beans and cheese and beef and the beef was dry. The Had to ask for my tortillas and waited for them. Fajitas were ok, not very flavorful, and portion was not a lot for the $13. Best per of the experience: I could pay by app so I avoided having to wait for my change. Will not return, thank you. read more

I visited enid and decided to go to this restaurant. Right of the bat they gave us this queso that tasted like chicken broth and corn water. The salsa was alright but needed some spice. I ordered a chimichanga which would have been could if the chicken broth cheese was not on it. I enjoyed the rice and bean however. The restaurants ambiance could have been better. It just felt empty. read more

Worst experience I've had by far. Waited 45 minutes for cold food while the staff sat down to eat next to us. Cheese dip was like cheese water. Still paid for the meal I took two bites of. never been so disappointed in a dinning experience. read more

I ordered the shrimp chicken steak fajitas and queso with chips to go. It was delicious and fast.

Food looked good. Very hot when we got it. Looks are deceiving. Looked amazing. First time I have ever had tasteless Mexican food. It wasn't too spicy but that's because it had no spices in it. The food was bland, heck even salt would have made it taste better. Cheese dip was even plain, my husband described it as tasting like bland chicken broth. We won't be back. read more

My first restaurant review and I'm 41. When the current owner took over, he took things off the famous salsa bar and did not bring back. Not only that, I've been here ten times since, every time the salsa bar is ravaged, and the restaurant is never busy. A lot of the e ingredients are lower quality. I ordered a Chile rellano and it was a mushy fake cheese nasty pepper that was soggy. Congrats dude, your lifelong dream of owning a restaurant has been realized. Now let someone else make the decisions read more

The chips were fine but the queso and salsa were unbelievably terrible. The queso was watered down and didn't even taste like cheese. The salsa was so sweet it tasted like a desert. After waiting nearly a hour for my food it finally got here, I got a chimichanga. It was smothered with the watered down cheese all over it. The refried beans were just out of a can, UNSEASONED. The rice wasn't bad though. The ambiance felt like the hood, there was a broken window. I will never step foot in here again unless they start making real queso. read more

Had a craving for Mexican food today, but I am extremely picky and had not found a place in Enid I was happy with. Had not been into Cafe Garcia in a very long time, but I always loved their Salsa Bar. Went in today and ordered the Cheese and Onion Enchiladas that came with a sauce and wonderful, fresh toppings. Loaded up at the Salsa Bar--my favorite item was the whole pickled jalapenos. My server was lovely--cheerful and accommodating--nice to be helped by someone who loves her job! Best meal I've had anywhere in Enid in longer than I can remember, and I have enough left over for a smaller portion this evening. Already can't wait! Thank you, Cafe Garcia, for delivering fresh, delicious food read more

This restaurant was so good! Our server was great and very accommodating; he was patient when we took our time ordering. I decided to go with the two soft tacos (served with rice and beans, of course). It was delicious!! I was so full afterwards. The biggest reason for going here would be the queso- the restaurants I usually go to only have chips and salsa, but in Oklahoma, you get to enjoy queso. Also, they have a salsa bar, so if you're feeling like go-getter, feel free to make your way through the tables to grab your salsa of choice. I would be completely content if they would have had mango salsa. read more

This was the first Mexican restaurant I tried when I came to Enid. I was very underwhelmed by the food. They start by giving you this cheese dip which my friend and I did not touch after trying. The salsas and chips are okay, but are much needed because the food takes forever to get to you. Overall, the service is quite terrible. I had the carne asada plate which was okay. But I will not be going back to this spot. read more

I'm giving Cafe Garcia ONE more try today. I really, really want some yummy nachos. The last time I ordered from cafe G, I was disappointed in everything except the gracious server. The time before that the server was rude as heck. I could not read the menu because of a medical issue so I told her I was looking for the plate with a taco, cheese enchilada, beans, and rice. Instead of putting in an order for the plate she charged it all as a la carte and was rude about me not being able to see the print. Well, as a matter of fact, now that I think about it.... I'll go somewhere else. Perhaps Taco Bell or a frozen Mexican dinner would be better than chancing another very frustrating experience at cafe g's. That's a shame--- used to go there often read more

Really bad service. She was nice but never once checked on us. She took our order and brought out our food. That was it. Also don't expect any salsa. You have to make it yourself at the salsa bar and it's not that good of a selection anyway. Food was below average and it took forever to come out. read more

Stopped in for lunch before seeing customers in Enid. They were busy but I found a table quickly. Servers were hustling around and helping people fast. I was happily surprised with nacho cheese dip with chips to start. I had the mixed fajitas and they were really good! I try to limit carbs so I skipped the tortillas and rice/beans and just made a fajita salad. And if I wasn't already happy, the price was less than $10 and now it's dinner time and I'm still stuffed! read more

Fresh! Authentic and delicious! What a treat today. I was lucky got here a tad before noon. The place slowly lined out the door and around the corner! I ordered a taco salad.

This is great food and great salsa bar. The food was soooo good. Will have to come back and bring the family. Had 5 different kinds of salsa. The deep red was pure chilies, one dip of this with cheese sauce was enough to knock you out. The salsa with cilantro was as good as I make, and I make a great homemade salsa. I had the poblano chimichanga, huge more than I could eat. But was delicious. Husband had carne asada steak and it was delicious too. Must try place. read more

The food was delicious with large servings. Chips and queso were provided, but the queso was thinking and bland. Margaritas are the only mixed drinks available, but they are very good. Prices are reasonable. 2 adult meals & 1 child with 1 margarita & 2 tequila shots plus tip were less than $53. Both adult meals had about half taken home. read more

Garcia's is hands down my go to!! Every time I go, the service is excellent and the food is even better. If you're new to Enid, America i would definitely recommend their huevos con chorizo, it is delicious!!! They also have the best queso in town with a great salsa bar! El patio is nothing compared to Garcia's. read more

My wife and I have a long history of dining here. It has generally been my favorite Mexican Restaurant in Enid. During a visit a few years ago, our server brought us warm salsa for our chips. Later we complained abut the salsa, which in YEARS of patronage, had never been brought to our table WARM. Not room temperature, but intentionally heated. The server explained that they "always" served it that way, and customers liked it that way. Despite our protests and request for cold or cool salsa, the waitress would not relent on her story or bring us what we asked for. We STAYED AWAY from this place for about three years because of this. When a new owner bought the place, my wife and I again became steady patrons for a long while. That ended tonight! My wife ordered a Chile Verde Burrito. What she got just didn't seem right. After she ate about a third, she discovered the meat inside was not chile verde (pork) but some type of beef. When we brought this to the attention of the (young) waitress, she told us there was a choice of either pork or beef for that menu item, and my wife didn't specify! The choice on the menu was Chile Verde or Chile Colorado (both pork), not beef! My wife clearly ordered Chile Verde. There was no "I'm sorry, let me fix that" moment. The server took no responsibility and instead tried to BS us with a poor explanation. So begins another few years of boycott. When will business owners learn the old lesson of "the customer is always right"? Why must the staff argue instead of assenting? We choose to dine elsewhere. read more

Solid Mexican joint in downtown Enid. The food has flavor, it is cooked with appropriate amounts of spices and salt, the ingredients used are correct - I know this is super basic stuff I'm mentioning, but Oklahoma restaurants suck at those basics. Cafe Garcia is a rare exception of quality ethnic food in a region painfully devoid of such pleasures. The staff is friendly, service is fast, prices affordable. They have a self serve unlimited salsa bar that is no joke. I really enjoyed dining here. read more

Stopped here hungry for lunch on a Saturday after the Tour de Trykes cycling tour and wasn't disappointed. They have an excellent selection of typical Mexican dishes rellenos, fajitas, tamales, tacos, etc. We tried spicy chicken fajitas, an enchilada and a tamale. All were excellent and satisfying. Served with refried beans, rice and trip to the salsa bar to pick your own salsa. We tried their guac too which was fine but needed a bit more heat for my taste. Saw some other dishes at neighboring tables like a Posole that have me wanting another visit soon. The service was top notch...efficient and friendly. read more

Great food and service. The menu had lots of favorites and was priced well. The salsa bar was awesome - tons of options.

Had a very disappointing, nearly 1 star, lunch at Café Garcia. Given how crowded this place was during a weekday lunch, plus the other Yelp reviews, the rest of Enid doesn't agree with me about this place. But, my lunch was subpar in nearly every aspect. To begin, the restaurant was very hot. It seemed as though it doesn't have an air conditioner, or if it does, it wasn't working. And, some of the ceiling fans were off. If the joint is this hot, they could at least turn on the fans. It took a few minutes before I had a menu, which was about par for the course for my entire meal. I only saw the server two additional times: once to get my food and once when I flagged her down and asked for my check. When I asked for my check, I also asked for a to go cup of ice water. She took so long with that I asked another server, who got it for me. You are given a very bland cheese sauce when you sit down, along with chips and hot salsa. I don't mean hot with spice (it had none), I mean hot with heat. It was very warm, and it was shocking, as I was expecting the salsa to be cold. Also, the chips, which were store bought, were stale. Fortunately, there is a salsa bar with several types of salsa, peppers, onions, etc. This is the only thing that saves Café Garcia from a 1 star review. Everything I had from the salsa bar was good. To eat, I had the chicken fajita quesadilla. For $8.99, you get the quesadilla, beans, rice, sour cream, and guac. So, it's a good value for the amount of food. But, the food isn't any good. The tortillas appeared to be store bought. So, we have a "Mexican" place that buys both its chips and its tortillas. The chicken was decent, it was grilled, so I'll give Café Garcia that. But, the veggies were only cursorily grilled, they were still nearly raw and very crunchy. The tortilla had almost no crisp, but it was greasy. This made me think the flat top wasn't hot enough or they didn't leave it on there long enough. This was a quesadilla you could make at home. And, if you were at home, you wouldn't have to sit in a hot restaurant and be ignored. I will not be returning to Café Garcia. read more

Yummy food! Servers are always friendly and I love their salsa bar! I'm not quite as fond of their complimentary queso but I LOVE their white queso and definitely willing to pay extra for it. I prefer their rice to other restaurants, it just has really good flavor and texture. This is one of my favorites in Enid. read more

Cafe Garcia - Chile Relleno and Beef enchilada - Mexican Near Me - Enid, Oklahoma

Every time we drive by this place is packed. I have no idea why. The cheese dip that comes with the chips and salsa is oily and yellow which is abnormal for Mexican cheese dip. It tasted old. The salsa was spicy and flavorful but weirdly warm. Our waitress was polite and peppy. No liquor or beers on tap, only bottled beer. The restaurant was slow but our food took an unusual amount of time to make. Beans had no flavor and the rice was yellow and hard, more like rice served in an Indian restaurant. Grilled chicken was ok and my husbands fajitas were ok. Very unprofessional to watch the entire waitstaff behind the counter, just a few feet away, taking selfies and eating food near the register with their hands...major health code violation. Unfortunately we will not be back again. read more

Went up here to today me and my wife after work got the heat to play and it was pretty good always like Cafe Garcia because the two of us can get out of there for less than forty bucks with a tip you know without drinking any alcohol drinks or anyting course we don't but I just like to say that their food is pretty good their complementary there complimentary cheese is it's all right but it could be a little thicker and I don't like the fact that I got to get up and make my own salsa I mean yeah I get to make it my own way but I'd rather have it brought to me anyways I just like to say overall you guys did a pretty good job and keep it up read more

Stopped into Cafe Garcia for dinner and although the atmosphere was pretty good, I was not impressed with the food. While they do have a salsa bar with a few different types of salsas, the chips that are brought out to the table were stale. The cheese dip was bland and lacked any type of flavor. I ordered the carne asada salad, it is basically carne asada with a plate dressed with shredded lettuce and a few tomatoes. The flavor of the carne asada was good, but it really doesn't add up to anything close to a salad. read more

Just prefacing by saying that I am a Mexican and Tex-Mex food connoisseur, so take my "meh" rating with a grain of salt because I have been on the greatest hits tour of Mexican food, and Cafe Garcia doesn't even qualify to be a roadie on this tour. Wait, that's harsh, maybe they qualify to be a roadie for the opening band. Okay, that's fair. Roadie for the opening band. This was the first restaurant I experienced when I moved to Enid last month, so I had no idea what to expect. Walked in and I thought the place looked pretty cool, authentic and rustic feel to the whole place. Here's where I almost walked out of the restaurant. Our waittress comes up, asks us for our drink order.... Me: "I'll have a margarita on the rocks with salt." Waittress: "... We don't sell liquor here, only beer." WTF MATE!!!! No tequila?!?! WHYYYY!?!??! Anyways, I recovered from that shock soon enough and ordered a Tecate and a salted glass. Salt was NOT course salt, it was table salt, so I would stay away from any salted glasses at this joint. I ordered the mixed fajitas (shrimp, beef, and chicken), as did everyone else at the table, and everyone seemed happy with the food. The fajitas weren't especially flavorful or unique, but they were definitely edible. The menu had alot of options on it, so I'm sure there are some gems hidden in there somewhere. Alright, I sound like a hater, so I will admit that the one redeeming quality of this restaurant is the salsa bar. Probably seven or eight kinds of salsa, all fresh and various levels of spice. The three or four I tried were all great. They also have fresh cilantro, limes, and japs, so that's nice to add to your meal if you choose. I have not yet been to any other Mexican restaurants in town yet, so I have nothing to compare this place to, only the best and most wonderful heavenly mexican food places in Texas. My only reason not to go back? Their lack of proper libations. Other than that, I'm sure I will eventually be convinced to go here again. read more
