    I was highly impressed with this place. Drinks are yummy- we ordered a "beer-Rita" and it was perfect! We also ordered street tacos and they were just the right size and very tasty! I'll definitely come back and hope my fellow "Yelp-ers" will support this place

    Is it a cartel or a syndicate? Yep, they operate in a failed American cuisine restaurant building, in the small town of Gore OK. Unlike many small town OkieMex restaurants though, El Largo is a clean, noticeably well-maintained building, with excellent air conditioning. It is roomy and nicely decorated, (for Halloween today). The food is very good and priced to provide a good value in today's economy. The service is fast and friendly. They have a bar. So, here is their deal. The combo menu has just about any Mexican food item you can think of, in as many combinations, that you can come up with. The best part of the deal is, a single meal is priced at $9.79. If you order two combo meals the total price for the two is $15.99. You save enough to make a good down payment on a big bowl of queso. That is what we did. El Lago seems to be very generous with the queso. If you order it on your food instead of red sauce you will be happy! My wife had a beef enchilada, beef burrito and a relleno. I had a beef taco, a beef enchilada, and a relleno. Check the pictures, you can see that the restaurant was not stingy with the queso. All items were packed with beef! The taco, enchilada, and burrito were average. The rellenos had a very thin, fried, light batter coating over a very fresh poblano. filled with cheese. I liked it because it wasn't a big pile of fried greasy breading. The salsa served with the chips were very good. Nice flavors and nice heat in the picante salsa. Excellent mixed with the queso or applied liberally on the food. This was an enjoyable meal. Take note; prices shown in the Yelp menu pictures are outdated, as are the prices on the restaurant's website. I only captured the combo menu which is current as of this review. I recommend the combo menu. For 31 bucks plus a tip, we had great service, two tasty meals, two soft drinks and queso. Being curious, I talked with "El jefe" on duty. I am seeing a pattern that many, many of the small-town Oklahoma based Mexican restaurants are actually chains. Sure enough! The cartel or syndicate of owners, operate El Largo, and restaurants in Warner, Ft. Gibson, and Checotah; all with different names. I have a conspiracy theory to go along with this, but since this website is not secure, I can't discuss it at this time. Enjoy the food!

    This is the rice and beans that came with the dish.

    We met up with some acquaintances for a visit and dinner out. They suggested El Lago, so we went(my husband and i). This was our first trip here. From the road you don't think too much of it(to be perfectly honest). But when you walk in, and wait to be seated, it sort of reminds you of a quaint trip through a street market in Mexico. During this dinner I had the steak street tacos with cilantro and lime with a side of rice and beans with a Dr.Pepper(seen in the pictures). My husband had one of the lunch specials for dinner(made with ground beef, a side of rice and bean, and queso with a kick flavor wise and to drink sweet tea). The street tacos were the perfect way to close the evening, before heading home. The husband found the ground beef to be the perfect grind in the dish he chose(and he's pretty picky about that). Tbe staff was very nice. When it came to which meal I preferred, I would have to say the street tacos(perfect portion and not real heavy). They also had a beautifully decorated holiday tree and the ornaments were nicely done.(whoever did the ornaments with restaurant name, you did a great job). So, on your next Taco Tuesday you find yourself in Gore, stop by El Lago and give them a try.

    Need some chips and queso right now? You got it. Great service and delicious margaritas. If you find yourself in Gore, OK and need a nacho fix, this place has got you covered. Try the Chicken Flautas, so perfect and comes with yummy verde sauce for dipping. I wouldn't steer you wrong, enjoy.

    When you walk in don't judge just take a seat and trust ! This old Tastee Freeze from back when I…read morewas a little kid( many centuries ago) hasn't had much of an update . So if ambience is a # 1 for your experience this is not your place. The food however is fresh and fantastic. This is the real deal in street tacos. I had the carne asada and the Pastor tacos. Super delicious with all the right spices dancing the Macarena on your taste buds. Wash it down with Coke in a glass bottle to let that fizz spread the joy! Staff struggles with English a bit but are sweet and very good people. Go a few times and they know your order by heart! Mucho gracious Taco La Tia

    I'll start out by saying that I am incredibly biased when it comes to this place. I come here once…read morea week with some co-workers and it's always the highlight of my work week. I've never had anything on the menu that I didn't love. Today I had the Torta Al Pastor. I would put this Torta up against any in the area. Every bite is perfection! I'm also a huge fan of their Enchiladas Rojas! The Dillon bowl is also a regular staple of mine. It's a simple rice bowl with your choice of 2 perfectly seasoned/marinated meats. The servers here are always very polite and attentive. They put up with our antics weekly with a wry, empathetic smile (note the 32 oz. Modelo). The restaurant has seating to accommodate 20-25 people comfortably, which is needed for the daily lunch rush. Tacos La Tia has a blue collar feel yet their food is that of an upscale, high-end eatery. Every dish is packed full of flavor and the portions are just right! If you're in Muskogee, come see what all of the hype is about!
