    The service was really good but the food was very bland sadly:( it wasn't to busy which was nice and it was very quiet! They are right next to a dispensary so you can smell it though the wall which I didn't really like !

    This may be our new favorite Mexican restaurant in Broken Arrow. Salsa is definitely made fresh. Margaritas were great, especially for the price. Shrimp cocktail is on point! This Taco Tuesday is a great bang for your buck. We got great service tonight. Glad we came.

    Good sized dining area.

    Norma and her brother run this little restaurant. They are related to folks that run the Chava's and Vallarta's restaurants scattered across NE OK. This particular restaurant has been open a couple of years and it is conveniently located just a few doors down from the Indian Springs Tag agency on south Elm Place. So, you can drop by and have a couple of margaritas both before and after visiting the tag agency. The salsa was good. They have mild and the essential hot. We tried the Chilaquiles and the Pollo Encebollado. The Chilaquiles were average, not bad, but nothing to brag about. It was a huge serving! The Pollo Encebollado was very good. It is basically a version of what some restaurants call "pollo loco." A thin chicken breast grilled on the flat top with queso AND this version has grilled onions on top. A nice add. It was tasty! Both plates came with good beans and rice. The Pollo Encebollado also had a generous dollop of fresh guac and pico de gallo. The service was quick. Norma is a friendly young lady to visit with. Drop by and give Chava's a try. We will be back!

    I was so impressed with Chavas! Everything on the menu sounded great. I went with the chori pollo, and it was fantastic. The portions were huge. My husband had the burrito Broken Arrow and he loved it. The salsa was great too. We both ordered margaritas, which were almost too strong haha. Next time I'll stick to beer. Definitely give Chavas a try! The service was excellent.

    #81 Enchiladas Seafood
    A. J. J.

    1st time to visit Chavas since their opening a few months ago. We arrived around 7:30 on Friday night and they were pretty busy. We were greeted by Bubba who seated us. Our waitress was quick to arrive with chips & salsa and took our drink orders. I ordered the #81 Enchiladas Seafood and she had the #55 Steak Feliz. My enchiladas were pretty good with a shrimp, a crab and a cheese enchilada. She wasn't fully satisfied with her dish as the menu says cooked to your taste and she thought it was a little charred. I tasted it and thought the flavor was good, but it is hard to cook a thin steak to a medium rare. Overall I thought the service was friendly and efficient, the food was served hot and fresh, but is nothing extraordinary. If your in the area and in the mood for Mexican it's as good as most in the area.

    Nice little hole in the wall Mexican Restaurant. Started off with some tasty tortilla chips. They were warm and crispy, but half the basket was filled with broken chips about the size of my thumbnail. The salsa had a zesty taste which left me wanting more... once the waitress bought us more chips (which were again half whole chips and half broken.) We ordered a side of guacamole which was very good and consumed quickly. I had the Fajita Broken Arrow which had steak, shrimp, chicken,chorizo,carne asada, grilled peppers and onions. The steak was a skirt steak seasoned to perfection. All of the other meats were grilled just right and not over done. The meal came with a side of shredded lettuce, rice, retried beans, and sour cream, and three warm flour tortillas. I asked for corn tortillas, but received flour. After informing the waitress, she quickly brought the corn tortillas. The fajitas could easily fill four or five tortillas, so you may want to request a couple more. All and all, it was a good meal, but not great, for everyone. We will try it again though as these new local restaurants are much better than the chains, and I'm hoping they are busy getting the "kinks" out being a new restaurant.

    Hawaiian Fajitas in a pineapple!

    Our first time there was Friday night. I didn't know what to expect, but I was blown away! We got the #2 Hawaiian Fajitas and it came out in the cutest half pineapple!

Since this was our first visit here, we had to order our comparison dishes. Those are guacamole, birria tacos and street tacos. When we received the chips and salsa, I noticed the salsa lacked some cilantro, but had a unique flavor, different from our other favorite Mexican food establishments. My wife was really fond of it, but said it was ok. I really liked it, even if it lacked cilantro. The guacamole came out and it looked like my guac that make at home. It was very good, didn't need any additional salt and was not overpowering in lime. I'd give it 10/10. My wife ordered the chicken street tacos. She said they were the best out of all the places we go. The chicken was flavorful and the tortillas didn't fall apart. It came with a tomatillo crema that was infused with jalapeños and was too spicy for her. I got the Birria tacos and they were especially good with the crema. The birria consumé was excellent. The rice was fluffy and tender and the refried beans were on point. They serve Coke products which includes Coke Zero and they were quick with the refills. We will definitely put this place as #2 on our list of go-to Mexican cuisine establishments. They are located in the Rose District, so the prices will be slightly higher, but it's still worth the visit.

Really good and would order again. Rice and beans were probably above average. My dining partner asked how the chile relleno was prepared. (He doesn't like the eggy batter.) We were literally told that it came premade and frozen and was "just fried." Obviously, he ordered the street tacos instead. We sat at the bar and it took a bit to get waited on but the manager jumped in and gave us water and silverware. I liked my Blackberry-Rosemary Marg but I honestly didn't feel like it had much tequila in it. The regular marg was just OK. Since it is a tequila bar and we sat at the bar, I would have liked to have discussed tequilas but my bad for not asking. Would have loved to have done a tasting. The menu was informative. I would go back when in south Tulsa. Not sure I would make it a destination. (Well, maybe. Those enchiladas were good! It is a cute place.

We arrived around 6:45pm for the 7pm bingo, only to find out it wasn't being held on the patio as advertised. That was fine--it was hot out anyway. We were shown to a small indoor section and luckily grabbed the last high-top table. Service was very slow. We waited a while before anyone came by, and it took 40 minutes to get my margarita. Our food actually came out before our drinks. I ordered a skinny margarita but got something syrupy and full of sweet & sour mix instead. Tried to switch to wine, but surprise--they don't serve wine. At a full bar. Odd. The food was just okay at best. * "Cilantro lime" rice had corn and no trace of cilantro or lime. Not good. * Black beans with pico--bland. * Cheese enchilada--fine, but forgettable. * Queso tasted like El Chico (nostalgic, but not in a good way). * Salsa had zero spice. Our server was rarely around, and when we were ready to pay, we actually had to get up and ask the manager at the host stand to bring us our check. Not a great ending to the meal. Bingo was... fine. It moved fast but had long breaks in between rounds. We played five games and didn't win. Prizes were $10 gift cards--not bad, but not enough to bring us back.
