Chalo's Tacos - Green chicken tamales - Mexican Near Me - Bethany, Oklahoma

I love Chalo's Tacos! I have been getting takeout Tamales from there for at least 10 years. I have had tamales one time each from a number of restaurants. This is the only restaurant I've ever ordered them twice. As a matter of fact, I have ordered them from Chalo's Tacos at least 90 times over the years. Their masa to filling ratio is perfect! We love Pork Tamales so that is what we always order. One time they were out of pork so we ordered a combination of tamales, some chicken and I think the others were spinach and cheese. They were excellent as well. Another favorite of mine, when I stop in to eat there, is their Pork Torta! Their bread is so nice and crusty on the outside and so soft and lovely on the inside and, of course, their filling has a beautiful concert of flavors. When they have it, they also make a flan that is full flavored and silky smooth. This is not a fancy place, but I don't always need fancy. I'll take well prepared, great tasting food every single time! read more

Cute little taco shop and fast service! My burrito was amazing; however, I did not get any salsa. Salsa is the #1 thing that keeps me coming back to a place. read more

Kind of a basic taco joint. Menu is limited but everything I tried was very good. The tamale was outstanding. Service was quick and they brought food out as it was ready. read more

This little place seemed to be a pretty legit, simple, Mexican joint. I wasn't overly impressed with the flavors in my tamale or my steak taco. Very affordable and reasonably priced. read more

Here is authentic Mexican cooking in the locally common 'Calvillo' style. I frequent these kind of places for fast street foods like burritos, tacos, sopes, etc. First thing I noticed here is they have only a limited selection of meats..only asada, al pastor, chicken and lengua. No carnitas, no tripas, no chorizo, etc. I had two of their $4.95 burritos. They were on the medium side size-wise, filled with a lot of cheap vegetables. Chicken one was not good. I didn't care for the diced unseasoned chicken breast, and it had a bland runny sauce inside leaking out everywhere. The asada was a little better, more meaty and none of the runny sauce, but beef was too tough. So while prices were fair, flavors and quality were just mediocre. It's quite possible I have yet to try their specialty items. But burritos are easy, and could be done much better. read more

LOVE this place! Excellent food with great flavor and decent prices. Sometimes the wait for orders can be long and sometimes hard to communicate if you don't speak Spanish, but otherwise very good. Clean restaurant but very small. read more

This was a great find. One of the women who works behind the counter graciously answered my questions about the menu and had such inviting, good energy. I ordered the flautas which were made fresh and the queso fresco was spot on. The chicken was lightly seasoned and deep fried crispy. The portion size was a little light so go with a burrito if you're starving, of course. A little smoky inside the restaurant. read more

I didn't love my taco (very dry and bland) but the tamales were great. There's absolutely no spice to anything but a cool place to go for lunch. None of the 'sauces' provided had much taste at all. Just overall very bland food. read more

Given the "social distancing" that we are all doing, I decided to get out and support one of our favorite restaurants! I called in an order of 6 pork tamales, 4 beef and 4 pork tacos and one beef burrito. All amazing as usual. Chalo's Pork Tamales are the best in OKC! I love all the food here and have one of each item and add the green and red sauce, radishes, and sautéed onions. Total heaven! I called and picked up my order in approx.10 minutes. Always very friendly service and outgoing cashier. Get your Chalo's on...... read more

We had a Mexican theme potluck at work and so I decided to bring tamales. After searching for the best tamales in the area, this place popped up. I called the day before to order 2 dozen tamales, just to give them a heads up. The lady on the phone spoke decent English and she was very nice. The next day I came in, the order was already ready for me to pick up. So I really appreciate them for being dependable. The fillings in the tamales were very flavorful and the corn dough wasn't dried, yet it was still firm. The chicken tamales were moist and savory, but the carnitas tasted even better. read more

We love their Pablano tamales. The quesadillas are very good. All food is very reasonably priced.

Went out of the normal street taco routes last night for "Taco Tuesday" -- gave Chalo's a shot. Meh... red salsa everyone raves about on here, was more like a watery tomato sauce, store bought salsa would have been better. Street tacos (order of 4) was meek with onions and cilantro and as noted by others who reviewed; very bland in any taste.. Wife had poblano & cheese Tamales (one veggie item on menu) -- said they were decent - but overall it's a hard pass next time with so many street taco options throughout the metro. Step up the game Chalo's! Make changes! read more

Found this place on Yelp and did not disappoint. Small restaurant but quick service. We had take out of tacos, tamales, burritos and quesadilla, all were very tasty. My son who normally doesn't eat salsa was even eating his quesadilla with salsa! Portion size was appropriate. This is another small business I will be supporting! No frill but just good food, clean restaurant and good service. read more

Super awesome! Fast friendly and cheap!! Also they are open till 11pm Fri and Sat when all the other good places are closed and you can't stand to eat fast food. I Recommend the Beef Torta and a Tamale to fill you up. Burrito and Tamale is also great. Be sure to ask for the green sauce, limes, and grilled onions (free on request) read more

Great food and service. The pork tamale was the best I've had. The beef burrito was the best my friend had ever had and he spends time in Mexico Loved the chicken tacos Tacos and burritos are a $1.50 each. Family run with table service and beer. The green chili sauce is to die for. I love the goat dish served on Saturday and Sunday. This is my favorite OKC Mexican restaurant and the best value too. Don't be intimidated if you're the only gringos in there read more

We went because coworkers said it was good. My wife tried to order Chicken Quesadilla, and I, the beef Quesadilla, extra cheese. We were then informed they were out of chicken, so my wife order the beef as well. They were brought out alone with no sour cream, guacamole, etc. My wife's plate had a sizeable hair on it, and she lost her appetite. My quesadilla wasn't "extra" anything but lettuce. Heavy on the lettuce, extra light on beef. read more

BEST tacos and tamales you will find! It's a small, very authentic place! The green sauce is fantastic. They are very reasonable with prices! GREAT place!! read more

Fantastic Mexican food! Local, authentic. Bit of a hole-in-the-wall in the best way. Love me some chalos. Every time I'm in OKC, it's a must-stop. read more

Service was friendly enough, albeit somewhat cursory. The food we ordered (a chicken burrito, two tacos al pastor, and one tamal stuffed with cheese and poblanos) came out fast. All of it was fairly good. That said, the portions were small -- terribly small, we both thought. Also, I asked for a can of Diet Coke and was brought (and charged for) a large bottle of the same. There are just too many good taquerias in the OKC metro for me to have to drive all the way out to (yikes!) Bethany for small portions of somewhat tasty Mexican food. read more

Missed my street tacos when I lived in Colorado. Have driven by this place many many times. Finally had to give it a try. It was a bit busy for a Saturday night. That's quite ok though. Got the beef tacos and chicken and cheese/pepper tamales. Made sure to get lime, green sauce and they also gave me onions and a jalapeño. The tacos were great!!! The cheese and pepper tamales were delicious with the green sauce over them. Would love them a bit more spicy but I just love the heat. Didn't have the chicken tamales (lunch tomorrow). I'll let you know. I'm very glad I finally decided to turn in this little strip mall and take a chance. It was worth it! read more

Awe what can I say bad about this place, nothing! They have a small menu and focus on doing it really well. I have only had he beef, I have not tried the other meats. I fell in love with the beef tacos and recently tried the beef torta, it was amazing as well. The poblano tamales as well. All of it is delightful. Tastes fresh and made in house. The price couldn't be better! The only thing is the dining area is a bit warm, worth it just seeing the making there wonderful food for you fresh, hot and pretty darn quick. read more

Small family run place with the best tamales I have found in OKC. They are made and presented simply which it appreciated. The tacos are good but actually better if to go with some time to sit in the foil. For some reason this improves the flavor. They run out of tamales sometimes but that is just another sign that this is the fresh real deal. Good pricing here too. read more

Great little taco shop with fantastic prices and amazing food. My family and I are traveling through town for a wedding and are very glad we made the effort to try this local shop. read more

Good tacos and better tamales. Placed an order of tacos and tamales to go. Price was right and the service was quick and the young lady who took my order was very nice and had a huge smile. Food was fresh despite my being there at an odd time of day (around 3:30 PM). My only complaint was that the dining room did not look very clean. read more

Their pork tamales are incredible - some of the best I've had! I also ordered a pork quesadilla and was pleasantly surprised that it came with avocado, lettuce, tomato. It was delicious! Horchata was great too. Definitely a good place for a quick, yummy bite! read more

Went here for dinner one day. Ordered beef tacos and pork tacos. The beef tacos were under seasoned, so that was disappointing. The pork tacos were better. They were out of chicken everything that day. The tamales were probably the best thing to order here, very good! The place is small, but very clean. The staff is very friendly and fast. Our orders came out quickly. read more

BEST TACOS IVE HAD IN A MINUTE. for $1.50?? a STEAL!!! yall better pick up some tacos here immedietly.

Been going here regularly for about a year now! It's our favorite place and is a hidden gem! Try it out!

This is a 4 star place within its category. This is a strip mall mexican place. Mom and pop type. The daughter waited on us. She helped make the tamales. We are used to Austin type mexican and this comes really close. Its kinda like La Taqueria Original #2 in Edmond. My wife says it is better than Big Truck Tacos and La Taqueria. The al pastor was really crispy. We had the pork tamale, the cheese and poblano tamale, the taco al pastor, the pork and the chicken burrito. We liked the green sauce better than the red sauce because it had a little more heat, but not a lot. When we come back, not if, we will focus on the tamales and the burrito. The burrito was huge. We bought a dozen pork tamales to go to hold us over until we come back. One star off for no chips and a little slow to refill our water. No beer sold. read more

Honestly, after a good sesh of bridge jumping me and the boys had our adrenaline pumping and needed some good grub, we look this place up and it's one $ so of course we take a gander. Upon arrival we were disappointed with the lack of chips and queso available (none). But the food made up for it, tasted like my grandma's cooking and definitely hit the spot. The pricing is super cheap and it's very filling. 10/10 would recommend. read more
