    Doña Gloria's Restaurant is a popular restaurant. We tried to get in a few months ago and the parking lot was packed. Today we waited until midafternoon. There were still a dozen cars in the parking lot. Fortunately, most all were departing customers. Soon we were in a fairly empty restaurant. We were the only gringos coming or going. That is a good sign. Indicative of authentic Mexican food, at a good price, at a restaurant we already knew was popular in the community. For sure the food is authentic, not TexMex, OkieMex and certainly not the Left Coast version. It is a different authentic. Most authentic Mexican food I have experienced is prepared with mild, to no seasoning. Nothing bland at Doña Gloria's! A friendly, welcoming greeting met us as soon as we were in the door. The friendly, fast service continued through the meal. Very good! Everything is riding on the salsas. Doña Gloria's get's my approval with two flavorful versions. A delicious hot, with noticeable garlic and cilantro, and an equally flavorful mild. Neither excessively loaded with tomato sauce and both excellent, unusual flavors in comparison to most other Mexican restaurants. I struggled with the menu. It is not big like the pages and pages of an OkieMex restaurant There are four prominent categories: steak, tortas, seafood and breakfast. Almost every item is in Spanish with an abbreviated English translation. There were a couple of items without translation "Entomatadas" and "Costillas." I avoided those, whatever they were. My wife figured out her choice, Carne Asada con Enchiladas. Chicken in the enchiladas. I was still lost in the menu, so I told the waiter "Just make it two." The theme of this review from the beginning has been that Doña Gloria's is a little different version of authentic Mexican food. Let's continue with the carne asada. It topped the enchiladas. It is the thinnest slice of steak possible. So thin, it only had one side. It is well done. Almost a carne seca. I thought it was good and to my surprise my wife loved it. The enchiladas were covered with an excellent green salsa, sour cream and Cotija. The shredded chicken inside was wonderful, well-seasoned and a lot. Beans and rice on the side. This was a big plate of food. A good delicious, value meal! I recommend you try to squeeze into Doña Gloria's busy restaurant and try a little different version of authentic Mexican food.

    Chicken tostadas for the WINNNN

    I go to Dona Gloria's once a week, sometimes 3. I have never not been satisfied, hence why I sometimes go 3 times a week. The staff is so friendly and they put their souls into the food. The tostadas are top tier and everything that goes on top makes it perfect. If you haven't tried it, you should. And if you don't like it, then try it again. The atmosphere is authentic and relaxing and you have a nice place to enjoy your food, or take it to go.

    Authentic Mexican food at reasonable prices. Great service too. Nothing special about the restaurant, but the food is plentiful and tasty.

    Carne Asada

    I don't have any words. These have to be one of the worst asada fries I ever had I found a hair and the damn food was cold! give me a refund buddy

    Everything about Don Glorias is amazing. Like what can I fu*king say? We got this dish and it was packed with more food than we could eat. Gonna have to bring the whole family to eat this meal. Every time we eat here it's a blast of fresh and seasoned food. The elites is good and the tacos are to die for. This current dish was a super dish!!!!!

    Since moving from Ca over a year ago we have been on the search for authentic Mexican food and so far this is the closest we've found. Salsa is great. Minchelada was also great. Only downside is it was hot in there.

    Totally in the mood for street tacos we decided to check out Dona Gloria. It was packed during lunch time on the Sunday afternoon. So we waited with others for a table. Always a good sign! The service was good our waitress was very busy but she was attentive to our needs. Free chips and salsa that we added the white queso my kids favorite. We tried one of every street taco offered which were all delicious my favorite being the chicken and pork but all were delightful. We ordered a couple fun flavors of bottled soda and waited for our food. There were two TVs on both with Mexican shows playing One reality show was too violent for my kids to watch so we kept trying to distract them from it. My son got the chicken and cheese quesadilla (the only thing he ever gets) meal, no onions. He liked but as an adult portion it was too much for him to finish. We will definitely be back it was really yummy

    Always a great lunch here! The best wet burrito in Tulsa...

    Wanted to update this review, they have new furniture, friendly owners/staff and some of the best salsa anywhere in Tulsa...be sure to check out the breakfast menu for some great breakfast or brunch! Quick, very affordable and authentic ambiance.

    I'm surprised to see that this place is listed on here as permanently closed? I eaten here recently…read morewith my family, party of 6. There's a parking lot in this plaza, and we were seated immediately upon arrival. They offered complementary chips and dips (salsa and queso). We ordered additional guac. The chorizo queso is sooooo good! I ordered the birria taco plate and I'd say this is very authentic compared to food back home (California)! They were generous with the birria and the consome is chefs kiss!!! The staff did a wonderful job in assuring our needs were met and that we were satisfied. I hope this place is just renovating and hopefully will reopen in the foreseeable future. I would love to see this place continue to thrive!

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.

Even though the website suggests…read morereservations, we called to check if they accepted walk-ins, which they did so that's good to know that both options are available. As what was stated over the phone, the moment we walked in, we were seated. The place is very intimate in space, I'd recommend for dates. I went with the Enchiladas, something I've been craving for a couple of months & La Tertulia helped that fix. There were a few meats to choose from & I went with chorizo. The wait on the food wasn't long (people were starting to fill in as well & it didn't stop the servers from being on point) & the food was really good. Coming in with 3 enchiladas, stuffed with the chorizo & the fixins, I was left full after I finished. The spanish rice & pinto beans were good as well, paired good with the enchiladas. The chorizo looked more like breakfast sausage more than the chorizo that's more on the dark brown + reddish tint I'm used too. The enchiladas also come with chiles (I picked green) & plenty of cheese. Side Note: Chips & salsa were also super good, my favorite type of salsa. Kinda like a Taquera/Molcajete style. I was so hungry that the chips & salsa didn't slow me down from running through my main entree.

I've heard of the highly lauded 918 Maples Tacos & Cantina many times since I moved back so I finally decided to try it on August 28th, 2025. Since then, I've experienced 918 Maples on different occasions and I'd say that it deserves the high praise. I've eaten at 918 Maples atleast 4 times, twice at the food truck (4931 S Union Ave.) and twice at this location. On 8/28, I arrived around 5:50pm. The walls are filled with color & different decorations, from murals to Latin-American art as well as TV's behind the bar for entertainment. The area is very home-like, compact, with just enough space for walking lanes. There's only one booth while the rest of the seating is either tables or at the bar. The host podium is at the door immediately upon entrance, I sat at the bar. Their menus are large but not overwhelming. On Tuesdays, tacos are $2 each. This doesn't include Birria, fish or Shrimp which are $3 or $4 on Tuesdays. My server was Diego, great guy! I ordered 5 Tacos: 2 Birria, 1 chicken 1 Carne Asada and 1 El Pastor. I also ordered a Paloma and a small queso. The meal comes with chips & Salsa, brought out immediately. Their chips are thicker and their salsa is mild. Add a little salt, good to go! I'm a fan of white queso but I particularly enjoyed theirs, worth the $2. The food came out within 10mins, not long at all. Two ramekins of salsa & 4 tacos. Each taco was amazing individually. The el pastor had crispy edges on the meat, the carne asada was soft & delicate while the birria was to DIE for. Only criticism is that the chicken was a little too salty but not terrible overall. As I mentioned, I ordered 5 tacos, queso & a Paloma but only received 4 tacos. I wasn't upset about the paloma, I could do without. But, I was a little uneasy about being shorted 1 taco, especially since I paid for 5. However, I didn't fret. I paid the bill & praised the staff because they deserve it! Since then, I've returned once or twice. Each time, usually on a Tuesday, the space is decently filled which a sign of a well-run & good quality establishment and the food is just as good. I consistently ordered tacos but I would gladly try their Queso Chicken, Rustic Quesadilla, or Birria Pizza. I've had their tacos at their food truck as well and, though the ambiance isn't comparable, the service is sweeter & the food is just as good. Bummer that their food truck doesn't do discounted tacos on Tuesdays. Photos here are from 8/26/25, 9/16/25 and 1/6/26. Had it not been for the forgotten taco, this would be a FULL 5-Star review!

It's well-worn but clean. Staff is quick and friendly. The prices are very reasonable. You'll leave full, but not bloated. I've been a fan of El Rio Verde for many years and always look forward to eating here. It's not a large place and only has perhaps four or five booths and a half-dozen tables, and it fills up fast at lunch. They're known for their "Wet Burrito," but the enchiladas and burritos are also outstanding. The refried beans are fresh and made in-house. The salsa is freshly made too and very good, but not memorable like the food. You'll see people from all walks of life eating here - couples, single moms with children, police officers, business people, blue collar workers, and everyone in-between. If you want really good Mexican food that is not TexMex or from a chain restaurant, try this place! You won't regret it! One of my favorite places in Tulsa. However, as of this review, be aware that Utica Avenue, just east of the restaurant, has been blocked to north-bound traffic only for water main replacement, so getting into the neighborhood is easier than leaving. Plan to go toward downtown on the service road next to I-244 for most efficient egress.
