Met some friends at calaveras for some delicious food and beverages. I enjoyed the chimichangas with rice and beans, while my friends had tacos, burritos , carnitas, and other assorted delicious dishes. We all enjoyed the chips and salsa bar. Some of us had beer while others had frozen margaritas. The vibes were good and the service on point. I will say, it was (we sat near the window in July and they have no shade). I certainly hope you don't blame the Oklahoma summer heat on them, but I felt it necessary to warn you of the only downside to visiting this gem.

My goodness I keep taking pics every time we come here of the amazing food we keep receiving but consistently is what you are reading and seeing. Don't be fooled that breakfast burrito it bordered on too much food but without rice and beans it was perfect. My husband is obsessed with the birria torta and has been getting that the past couple times. I'm obsessed with the consume they serve that sandwich with!! I cannot say this enough, please start selling your salsas and consume because yummmmm. The carne nachos were plentiful crunchy and oodles of toppings. As advertised continuing to eat our way through the menu will continue. As always the staff is lovely and attentive keep churning out the excellent food!!! See you soon.

So thankful this spot opened back up in the Kendall-Whittier area! Located across the street from where the Tulsa Farmer's Market is held, this restaurant offers delicious and filling food as well as a complimentary salsa bar! The fajitas were great and had a pretty affordable price tag. Grant loved their wet torta and we both enjoyed the queso. Again, really affordable for a big bowl!

This is the first time we've visited since they reopened. Even though you order at the counter, service was stellar and uber friendly. We ordered the red birria tacos, one carne asada street taco and an al pastor street taco. The birria tacos were enough to split (three---bigger than a street taco but not huge). The carne asada taco was outstanding, too. The al pastor taco was good. I would probably do the same order next time. The birria tacos came with a side of rice--kind of small but plenty (and good). We got two boats of chips and they were refilled quickly. My only minor, tiny complaint is that the salsa cups are too small. (Because, my friend, there are a lot of salsas to choose from.) Make this corner of town your starting point for date night. Have an early cup of coffee at She Brews, dinner at Calaveras, popcorn and a movie at Circle Cinema and round it out with a brew from Heirloom. (And, don't forget to pick up churros at Pancho Anaya.)

I'm officially done with this place....I tried but anytime I've been there it just hasn't been all that good. This time I only ordered guac and queso with chips....it's something about their guac that tastes store bought like the fake kind that they just add chunks of tomato and onion to...plus it doesn't change colors like fresh guacamole does. The cashier was really sweet though. I've never had bad service there just food that I didn't like and I love Mexican food. I'm so disappointed because I hear people say good things about this place. But for me it's a no

birria tacos, dipping sauce and a cup of rice

Austin M.

It wasn't quite perfect, but close. Today, I ordered, through doordash, the red birria tacos for lunch, with horchata to drink and chocolate flan as a dessert. The tacos came with a dipping sauce and a cup of rice on the side. They were maybe the best tacos I've had in a long time. So much delicious flavor, with a perfect slight spice in the dipping sauce, and a fantastic texture. The horchata had a wonderful milky cinnamon flavor that was perfect to my taste, and the flan was nearly perfect. I will say that I've only had flan one other time and I think I prefer it without the chocolate. I think the chocolate makes it taste a little more like a chocolate cake than a flan, but it was still delicious and creamy. I am excited to try more in the future. 4.5, but I put 5 because overall, the experience was closer to 5 than a 4.

Self service, go up to the counter and order and then you take a seat. Complementary chips and salsa bar with salsa ranging from mild to hot burn your ass. I went on taco Tuesday for the red tacos a.k.a. birria tacos. Plate with three tacos, consommé and rice. Tacos are made with homemade corn tortillas doubled up two tortillas per Taco, my tortillas were slightly overcooked crispy but a little burnt, the consommé was full of flavor. The rice was a little gritty could've been softer. Dining area was OK. A lot of the tables were dirty even though they were empty needed to be wiped down. This is full self service. There's no wait staff to refill your drink or bring you anything. You will get up and serve yourself, they have a lot of new menu items and follow the Facebook page for daily specials. Parking is across the street but there was plenty of spaces service was friendly, short and sweet. I will probably eat here again most likely for lunch and try something else. .

Overall really good. I really enjoyed the birria. There others I like better but I'd definitely eat these again. The others enjoyed their food as well. My partner enjoyed her shrimp cocktail. For days she's said she wants to go get some more. I don't like cocktail sauce but this was good. More of a pico. Not that ketchup based gross stuff you get at other places. Margaritas only come in frozen and they're super sweet.

Went to Calaveras Mexican Grill for lunch today at 1 PM, our order was taken by Brenda at the counter. We got our salsas, onions and escabeche (delicious!) at the salsa bar -- nice selections. We picked a booth and waited for food to be delivered. I ordered 3 red tacos and they were excellent (especially dipped in consommé) and lemonade. My bride had two ground beef tacos. We loved that they fried their own corn tortillas!! And for those that care, the men's restroom was very clean and no trash lying around.

We were doing photography event in the area and this place is delicious and had great service. The salsa bar is awesome and the food tasted great. The Barria burrito was amazing and the meat was perfectly cooked. It was a little salty but I will have to come back again to see if it was just that batch. Worth a try when you are in Tulsa. The restaurant has a perfect authentic feel and is very colorful.

This is a great place to get great Mexican food! To start, the atmosphere is so cool. I love how colorful it is, and the paper banners hanging are just so fun. The whole place kind of makes me feel like I'm not in Tulsa anymore, which is always fun. It's kind of run down, especially from the outside, but I actually kind of like that. It somehow just works with the general vibe, and gives it character. It feels authentic and genuine. The workers were nice, though you don't interact with them much since you order up front, refill your own drinks, etc. It's not "fast food", but it has a similar feel in terms of how things work. The food is obviously better though! I came here once before, and I don't remember the menu having as many options as it does. There's pretty much anything I'd want on the menu from a Mexican place. I was surprised that the verde burrito was actually cheaper than just the chile verde, so I ordered that one since it's basically the same thing just wrapped in a tortilla. I thought the pork was a bit on the dry side but it was still good. I also wish the verde sauce was a little more flavorful, but I know that it's meant to be a mild sauce on purpose. You get complimentary chips, and they have a salsa bar with a few different options. I added some extra verde sauce to my burrito and I liked it even better. The portion size was good. I was hungry at the time and finished it, but could have also easily taken some home as leftovers. Overall I thought it was good, and I want to try more from the menu.

I'm an ecstatic about Calaveras being open again!!! During Covid I would often drive by just to see if they were open yet, anticipating that authentic Mexican food that tastes amazing! My day brightened as if a rainbow cleared the path when I called today and was told they're open . As soon as I walked in I was back in food heaven and couldn't decide on what tasty goodness I wanted today. I chose Gorditas and of course I needed a side of yummy guacamole and chips as an addition to my order. This California girl loves the atmosphere here... the beautiful colors and decor are so nice. I'm in love with the Salsa bar too!! The staff is always so friendly and helpful. Thank you so much for reopening Calaveras.. I've missed you dearly!!

Go to any other Mexican place in Tulsa but here. All the salsas were very bland, chips greasy, guacamole was brown. The meat (carnitas and shredded beef) was fat ridden inside my enchilada. The fountain drinks were all not right, either flat or tasted off. The beans tasted bland and weird and the rice had peas and corn in it - yuck! The service was great, that's the only positive. read more

Though a bit pricey for the portions, the food was amazing and I'd highly recommend to anyone wanting to take a trip near downtown.

Add "everything ," which means salsa, cilantro, onions, etc. to get the full flavor. The chunks of meat in the steak tacos are chopped more finely than at some other places, which gets them a higher score. It's easier to eat and not so chewy. The family running the restaurant has always been warm and friendly, and I've been eating here for many years. Be patient as a long line can appear suddenly. You'll be rewarded in the end with a delicious plate of food though, and they have 6-8 flavors of aquas frescas, which have become a new favorite thing for me. If you have a sensitive stomach (think hangover or sickness) the pepino aqua fresca will heal you. The water of life it is!

But, it was difficult for me to look past someone being extremely rude at the register. The ladies in the kitchen were super nice though! My burrito was mostly beans and lacking flavor for Al pastor meat. At nearly $11 it's tough to say this was a winner. Either way, the building was clean, plenty of seating, but sooo quiet. Definitely not your typical Mexican joint playing music with a joyful atmosphere.

Burrito was fantastic and the tortilla was treated properly, which is where most these places miss the mark. The green and red salsa hit the spot as well.

After hearing nothing but good reviews and reading about them in TulsaPeople magazine I had to try them out. I ordered the fish tacos and they were amazing! Make sure to try some of the creamy green salsa from their salsa bar. The staff is friendly and the day of the dead theme is vibrant. I'm definitely loving all of the new establishments in the Kendall-Whittier area. read more

The lot was packed so we parked by the pizza place nearby and walked over. There were people waiting outside so we expected a long wait. Once we got on the waitlist, they said it would take 20-30 minutes and we gave them our number to receive a text when our table was ready. It was closer to 45 but we didn't mind. We waited inside their to-go building next door since there are some chairs. A guy saw us waiting and came over with a full tray of mini conchas (my love language). I asked if they made them in-house and he shared that they will once they are able to expand and have their own bakery. Something to look forward to! We sat in a booth which was comfortable. The restaurant was absolutely packed and we took a bit to check out the menu since it was our first time. It was hard to decide because everything looked so good! It took a while to get our food once we ordered (about 45 minutes) so we were pretty hungry once food arrived. I highly recommend their corn pancakes. I don't know any other restaurant that offers them and they are delicious. The texture is more hearty and dense than regular ones and they're less sweet as well. If you're undecided on the type of salsa, get their chilaquiles sampler which features 3 different kinds. The charro skillet was also delicious. Can't wait to go back and try more of their brunch as well as their regular menu. They have a great salsa bar. The bar section of the restaurant had live music playing which also added to the ambiance.

The chips were thick, fresh and crunchy, they came without any salt so I added some. The salsa was very mild, so if you enjoy milder Mexican food, you'll like it. If you prefer more hotter ask for the hot salsa, you won't be disappointed. Their burgers looked good, and the steak fries looked amazing. If I go back I'll get those for sure with tacos. I think my favorite thing about this restaurant is the interior decor - it's like you're in a log cabin. With Collinsville being such a small town with limited restaurants, I could see this place be very popular. They even have corn dogs! Who doesn't love a good corn dog?

Inside bright lime green is the theme. Dia de Muertos is just a few weeks away and the decorations are already up here. I like the salsa bar. A well-stocked salsa bar, with mild to liquid fire, limes, pickled onions, and pico de gallo is located up front, where you pick up your tableware and napkins. Serve your self drink dispenser is at the front counter. For me, the Birria Taco Combo. Three big tacos stuffed with beef, melted cheese and a little pico de gallo. A small cup of consume on the side. It also comes with beans and rice. The beans are good. The rice serves no function, except to help hold the foam plate down. And the big surprise, a chili toreado. That won me over. My wife went with 2 Street Tacos filled with al pastor. My Birria tacos were very good; the big winner was the al pastor. Rated as excellent. Check the pictures. Yep, for us it was La Takiza (a taco party)!
