Cafe Ole has a long history in Tulsa in Brookside. Their blue corn tortilla stacked enchiladas are what they are known for. You can start there and work your way to the salads which are also great. We sat by the fireplace in the enclosed patio area. I would say the downside is that there is not a lot of dining space, but it's Brookside. We ate lunch at noon and easily got a table. read more

Great every time. Food and drinks are both always delicious. With good service. With a great patio for seating.

Food was excellent and since it was our first time to visit this establishment our waitress sat down with us to discuss, history, menu, etc. Then followed up with great service! read more

Great food and service, really like their salsa, have been there often. This is in my top three Mexican restaurants in the Tulsa area.

Great food, great service! Our last visit to Tulsa we noticed the menu had changed and my Hubby's favorite Molcajete dish was missing. Our waitress (I wish I could remember her name) went back and ask the chef if he could make it. He was so accommodating and it was just as delicious as always. Never go to Tulsa without having a meal at Caf e Ole! read more

We hadn't been to Cafe Ole in a long time and because our daughter and her boyfriend are moving into the area we decided to celebrate our anniversary there. We were not disappointed! I had the Chile Relleno and my husband had a beef dish which was enough for two meals. We both had to admit our dishes were delicious! The food is better than we remembered. The fresh chips and salsa were out of this world and there was something very special about the sauces on our items. We loved sitting out on the patio which had plenty of fans to keep us cool. We will definitely go back again, especially for Taco Tuesdays! read more

Best Tacos in Tulsa! Ex-Californian/New Mexican descendant approved cuisine! I've tried a lot of tacos in my life and this place offers the best tacos in Tulsa without a doubt. If someone can prove me wrong, please tell me. Yet, for now, this place gets my number one spot. I absolutely love their slow cooked shredded meats, corn tortillas and authentic style New Mexican plates offering pork style pinto beans, black beans, green chiles and sautéed veggies. Vegetarians should have no problem finding deliciousness either. I love their spinach enchiladas and their spicy Serrano salsa. Ask for extra sauces! Really happy to have finally found this place! read more

Toasty patio with the fireplace aroar, excellent taco Tuesday menu, the best margaritas, top notch service and delicious pie for dessert!

Great leisurely lunch spot on a leisurely afternoon. It was Good Friday at 12:30 when we arrived and there was no patio seating left. In fact, we snagged one of the last "hallway" tables and soon after the tables in the small front were packed. Service was a bit slow but we were not in a hurry at all. We ordered margs which were delicious as were the stacked enchiladas (my all time favorite). If you know they're going to be busy and you have to sit on the patio, I would arrive super early or late. We left about 2 and there were a few spots open. I just love this quirky place. Four stars only because of service quickness (but they were busy!!!). read more

Parking is a shared lot in the back of the restaurant but depending on the time of day fills quickly and then you have street parking. The server was efficient with order taking and getting us our drinks and refills. The staff was nice but there was little ambiance or character to the inside it might be different on the patio. The food was okay other than the charro beans with chorizo nothing stuck out as an item to go back for. I had the carne asada and got an arm workout cutting the meat as it was fatty and a little tough. My friend got the fish tacos and said they were okay but also nothing stood out for her. For the food a 2 but the service was good so a 3 it is. read more

I forget about Cafe Ole sometimes because it's just off S Peoria Ave so out of sight out of mind I guess. But then again, sometimes I remember about Cafe Ole and then realize what a great place it is. Very laid-back and casual, they have a very nice covered outside area for seating which is also dog-friendly read more

Outstanding food and service. Heather & Colby are OUTSTANDING! Sure am happy they have gone back to when they began.

If you are new to Tulsa or visiting, you definitely want to try this T Town icon. Cafe Ole is known for its healthy cooking. Some people like that and others don't. It's also known for its patio. I love the patio. Today, as we approached the restaurant, I commented to Dan that it looked like a party. When we walked in, friends greeted us. It was a party. Everyone seemed to be enjoying the atmosphere. This is my favorite part of this restaurant. It's fun. I was disappointed that they no longer have a lunch menu. We both got Cuban sandwiches which was small enough for us. It's slightly different from most Cubans. It didn't have ham and pickle but did have guacamole and caramelized onions. It was flavorful and moist. The slaw is tasty and crisp. Parking on Brookside can be a problem, but they have a private parking lot with a parking guard. Even though they don't have lunch specials, they have Tin Pan Tuesday. On Tuesdays from 4 to close, Tecate is $2.50 and they offer a variety of tasty treats such as tamales, street tacos, etc for $2.50 each. To help keep the patio atmosphere pleasant, they have small windmills on tables to keep flies away. If you live in Tulsa and haven't been to Cafe Ole, you need to try it. read more

Ohhhh...I'm so full. They have 2 different kinds of queso so yes, we did it. We ordered a small of each. One is made with cream cheese and the other is 'regular' queso. Both are taaasty. There are several gluten free options on the menu. I ordered the chicken verde enchiladas and the verde sauce had so much flavor. My husband ordered the stacked enchiladas and enjoyed them. Everything was delicious, our server was friendly and I didn't have a reaction. Now that's a win in my book, WOOT WOOT! read more

Cafe Ole has been a favorite of ours for 20 years. but new ownership is ruining the experience. All our favorites are gone from the new menu and the margaritas are made from a mix not fresh ingredients as has been their tradition. The new staff doesn't want to be there and service is quite poor. We were weekly customers, then monthly and now we don't plan to return. It's very sad and we will miss the Cafe Ole that once was. read more

We dined at cafe ole last night and the food was great. Typically we like to be seated on the patio, but the weather was not permitting, unfortunately. We had a large party of 10 and the service was decent, but it took a while to get our food. I suppose you have to be more patient with such a large party. I had the stacked blue corn chicken enchiladas with blue cheese crumbles....delicious! Someone suggested adding the crumbles a while back and it is a game changer. Do yourself a favor and try this if you like the tangy flavor of blue cheese coupled with red chili sauce. read more

So good!! I'm so glad that I tried this place and I'm definitely going back! The chicken quesadillas were amazing read more

First time back in a year. Same owner that has Te Amos and the MK Bistro (which used to be Ol' Vine). Since we love MK Bistro food and service, we decided to check out Cafe Ole. The last time we were here, the service and food were on a decline. We knew the Happy Hour is 2-6pm so we dropped in shortly after two. Immediately greeted and shown to a table on the patio. There were 3 other couples there and it never got more crowded until we left at 3:15. Grace brought us waters and confirmed the Happy Hour menu consists of 1/2 price small plates. We each ordered a Top Shelf Margarita ($12.50), small guacamole ($2), Queso Ole ($6) and had the complimentary chips and salsa which are very good. She ordered the Ceviche Tostada Stack ($7) and I got the Quesabirria Tacos (3 for $7) which come with a cup of consume. We got the perfect amount of food and a very good price. I think next time I would get the regular Queso. It was very pleasant on the patio (atmosphere and music) Our waters were filled regularly and we were checked on periodically. Tab came to $54.38. We added a $15 tip. We'll be back. read more

The food was great! Very delicious and tasty! Mexico City style. I enjoyed the salsa and chips! I ordered a Torta Cubano! Massive! The best Cubano I've ever had! Must try this place! Outdoor vibe and great location. Service was decent. read more

We dined here on July 13, 2019 about 6:30pm. I got the Spinach Enchiladas with double rice instead of beans, my daughter got the Olé Quesadilla, and my boyfriend got the Chicken Verde Enchiladas with rice and black beans. We were seated immediately and the service was good. The complimentary chips were a little thicker and heavily salted which I thought took away from the salsa that came with them. My Spinach Enchiladas were ok. The spinach was the issue it was really dry and bland. Almost tasted like it came from a can. Other than that everything else was really good. My boyfriend and daughter thoroughly enjoyed their entrees. Sitting out on the patio was ok when the wind was blowing. Without the wind, even with the overhead fans, we had flies bothering us and it was a little warm. The wait staff was on top of everything though and kept up with refilling our waters and checking on us. Our server was Matt and he did a really good job making us feel very well looked after. He was really quick with everything. Overall I would eat here again. read more

Cafe Ole offers the best Southwestern / Mexican / New Mexican food in Oklahoma, and luckily for us it is right here in Tulsa! I have enjoyed the food and service at Cafe Ole for 20 years, and their menu only gets better over time. Yesterday I had the "queso rellenos" which are chile rellenos stuffed with cheese and served with a chile colorado red sauce. Piping hot and excellent flavor combinations, I could not have been happier. I have eaten many chile rellenos, with the best being in Santa Fe, NM, but outside of that city, this is the best I have ever had. The sides that come with it are equally if not more delicious... savory black beans and delectable, perfectly cooked rice, and a small jalapeno cornbread muffin which was an excellent compliment to all of the savory flavors. Peach tea is delicious! (I'm not a margarita person so I go against the grain.) Chips and salsa are quite good here, though yesterday the salsa was not spicy enough for my taste. That's okay though, it was fresh and enjoyable, and with a main meal that is such a winner, I can handle one small glitch in the meal. I recommend Cafe Ole to anyone traveling to Tulsa who enjoys Mexican, New Mexican, or Tex Mex flavors. They make their food fresh and the service is excellent. Enjoy! read more

Had a wonderful dinner last nite at Cafe Ole in Tulsa. The new owner likes the food to have taste and it did not disappoint. The original Queso was back to perfect. It was creamy and full of flavor like it has been in past years. The Blue Corn Stacked Enchiladas with veges melted in my mouth. The cooked from scratch Black Beans and Rice both were seasoned perfect with lots of secret flavors. I think Ole is better than it's ever been. The quaint, cozy patio with a wood burning fireplace made me feel like I was in a cafe in Santa Fe with a flare of New Mexico cuisine. Emma my waitress could not have been more attentive. I was there for the evening and never felt rushed. read more

By far the best south of the border cuisine in tulsa. Always fresh and delicious. They recently went to thicker chips which was a mistake. Likes the thin. But like ice cream, it's why they make chocolate and vanilla. Salsa great. Love the hot plates. Keeps my meal perfect. read more

I went for their brunch. Sat on the patio as well. The weather was nice so it was only right. I got one of their famous Cafe Ole margaritas. It was strong enough, especially with it being topped off with a shot of Grand Marnier. Also, got a Sangria. It was pretty good as well. It goes with the food they serve. I recommend that over any drink with their brunch. I got the Olé Hash. Red potatoes, two poached eggs, hollandaise & chorizo sausage. Real good. I'm starting to like poached eggs more & more (had some about 3 weeks ago as well). Their potatoes were good, seasoned well. I added Sriracha & it took it up a notch. Had red peppers & onions (which it didn't state on the menu because I don't like onions) but it was tolerable. read more

I went into Cafe Ole for a late lunch this afternoon. I noticed the menu was different. Poor graphics and less options on the new menu. The staff told me there were many changes under the new ownership. My enchiladas were terrible. Dry blue corn tortillas, bland sauce, barely any filling. I'm sad to say the restaurant has gone downhill. read more

Excellent margaritas. They're strong and flavorful! They have a cute little patio that's covered but it seems to be always full. They do offer a couple tables directly out front but it can get hot if you're out there trying to enjoy yourself... Service is prompt and courteous even if you're ordering just drinks and not food the wait staff doesn't seem to be annoyed by that. Even though I didn't order food I did glace at their menu and they had some amazing quick $6,7 and 8 entrees which is super duper affordable! I will definitely be coming back for lunch and definitely ordering their margaritas because they were absolutely fantastic! read more

Fantastic queso. Not what I expected but delicious. Blue corn quesadillas were spot on, highly recommend.

Cafe Ole is a little Tex Mex place in the revitalized areas near Peoria and Utica. It is a modern, yet not pretentious. Service was friendly. Street tacos were really delicious, along with their fresh salsa. What I really appreciate about this place is that have a spicier version of salsa that is actually hot, versus other places that don't deliver as advertised. It's green with a lot of fresh ground chilies in it. read more
