The enchilada sauces here are good in our experience, especially the chili con carne and entomatada.

This place is better than most of the Mexican restaurants in the Tulsa area, and I can assure you that we have tried many of them. The place has a campy hole-in-the-wall Mexican place vibe.

Their lunch menu was great so many options for so cheap! The lunch fajitas were 7.99 i think how can you beat that and it came with sides! Everyone gets free chips and salsa also which is a plus. My lunch fajitas came out and i understood that they were a smaller portion but my one year old could've ate more than that. The chicken was so small and it was mainly just grilled onion and bell pepper. Was super disappointed. My aunt got the quesadillas those were normal size and she even had leftovers. My mom ordered ala carte tacos and they were great. We all ordered a margarita and they were probably the strongest margarita I've ever had i walked out tipsy from just one! Which, no complaints there just don't think they measured the tequila on them. Friendly customer service a tad slow but still kind.

If you do, you'll know why it has over 1000 Google reviews and why so many people like it. I was traveling with a group of friends through this area and we didn't have much time to eat. We were looking for something better than fast casual, but also not a sit down place that would take 20 minutes to make our food. Los Potros hit that fine line and I was extremely satisfied. Their menu wasn't extremely long and they had multiple options for select food preferences. Service was incredible with very friendly staff who were very attentive. Plus you get complimentary Chips and Salsa which isn't always offered in every Mexican Restaurant. I ended up getting a Molcajete which was beyond incredible. The Molcajete was packed with Steak, Chicken, Shrimp and Fajita Veggies. The portion size was HUGE. Enough for 2-3 meals for myself and I eat decently large meals. Whether you're traveling and passing through or you live near this area, Los Potros is worth the stop. You'll find great value for some incredible food and you won't leave disappointed.

Three Crispy ground beef tacos plate with refried beans, rice, and some dabs of sour cream and guacamole. The tacos are full of meat with some lettuce, tomatoes and cheese, very good. Refried beans were nice and creamy, rice didn't have any flavor and tasted very plain. Chips and salsa is free as long as you order at least one entree. Chips were fresh and salsa was just ok, for me it was too tomatoey and could use a little more heat (green chile or jalapeños). All in all it was a nice filling meal.

We drove around town to see the old buildings. Mostly crumbling, vacant structures with faded signs…read morepainted on the building's exterior bricks. The logos once proudly announced the owner's name and services. Essential then, now ancient. Sad. We imagined what the town was like, when oil was life in Oklahoma. The buildings then housed businesses that employed many, put food on the table and provided opportunities for several generations. Yale, a living ghost town now. The massive building has a Spanish architectural hint and colors that suggests, Mexican food can be found here. It is now Chava's. It covers almost a city block. This place probably rocked in the old days. The parking lot being full of oilfield worker's trucks at noon during the week and family cars on the weekend. Now well worn, the neglected exterior matches the town; weeds, the structures only landscaping. Today, the entire declining population of Yale could probably fit in the building. The parking lot was vacant when we arrived. The restaurant survives, thanks to dedicated locals and with the help of hungry sports fans headed to Stillwater for the Saturday game. Currently its ranking as the "Best Mexican Food in Yale" is unchallenged. The food is served on hot plates, properly prepared and good portions. The service is friendly and the restaurant is relatively clean, but noticeably warn. We ordered one of the combination plates, a relleno and a beef enchilada. On their own both were good; but the red sauce on the meal didn't work. Closer in taste to marinara spaghetti sauce than anything Mexican. The salsa served with the chips was similar in taste. Very mild, oregano flavor prominent. When we ordered, the young man offered three options: white queso, yellow queso or red sauce. We asked about the red sauce. He described it as "like chili. Nope, it is more like spaghetti sauce. The beans and rice were good. Underneath the sauce, was a nice big, fresh poblano, filled with cheese, battered and fried, accompanied with a mildly seasoned, beef filled enchilada. My recommendation, order queso on anything that comes with a sauce. It will be very mild, but better than the spaghetti sauce. If you are a person that finds a Tic Tac to be a little too spicy; you'll love the mild salsa.
