    Cheese enchiladas with double beans.
    Vickie H.

    They have the best cheese enchiladas! Also good: tacos, guacamole, nachos, and rice.

    The General Manager!  Charlotte.

    Oh my, a really friendly bar! Got away from the Coctaw casino for a bit and found this gem! The General Manager walked right up and introduced herself as Charlotte and made me and my brother feel right at home. 4 miles from the Choctaw and we found ice cold beers at half the price. Highly recommend! Oh and the world's largest peanut is a few blocks away in front of city hall.

    This was part of my child's chicken strip that was as hard as a rock.  There was no way that my 5 year old daughter could eat this.

    This used to be my favorite Mexican place. They have been bought by another local place that went under and i can tell you it's probably not gonna be long before Salita's goes under. The food was definitely not the quality that we had with the original owner! My quesadillas were cold, my husband's enchiladas tasted disgusting and my daughter's chicken strips were sent back because they were almost burnt and too hard to eat. When they came back out they were the same... the grease they were using needed to be changed. The waitress was nice and told us that we would not be charged for the child's chicken or our drinks but even at that, for two dinners and a child's enchilada, it was almost $50!!!! Unfortunately I'm done with Salita's or Sport's City. Take your money elsewhere.

    Stopped in based on it being the only restaurant in Durant with a review on Yelp. Upon seeing lots of police cars in the lot, I knew it must be a good restaurant since they eat out a lot and I would think would go to good places. The dish to get is the one they label their best seller, the Fireman's Special, which is either chicken or fajita steak over rice with queso on all of it. Trust me, the queso soaks in to the rice making it so delicious. I'm considering asking local tex mex places to try and make this dish.

    Situated on the main drag of Durant, Oklahoma, Salita's looks fun from the outside with separate entrances for the restaurant and companion bar, Saluter's. With a Tex-Mex selection of burgers and enchiladas, the menu is likewise fun, including dinners such as Labor Inducing Tacos, Mark's Mess and Popeye (you guessed it, that last one involves spinach. I'm not sure what the first one involves.) There is a pretty fair selection of the usual, various combination plates, fajitas, quesadillas, etc. I went with the El Marco - two enchiladas and a taco. Service was fast, polite and seating on the patio provided a nice view of the sunset and passing traffic. The taco was okay - sort of like Taco Bell with slightly better meat and trimmings. The enchiladas didn't fare much better; same type of pasty ground beef and a stick of jack cheese in the enchiladas. The bland refried beans and taste-free rice actually elevated the meal somewhat. On the margarita scale from 1 to 10; 1 being " this rocks the salsa" to 10 being "Christ Jesus get the taste out of my mouth", it gets a 5. Having said that, I literally didn't finish my meal for fear of bad Taco Bell flashbacks. Thank God for cilantro and guacamole, the condiments that care. There might be more to those comical entree names that meets the eye.

    I've been here a couple times with family. Grew up on Tex-Mex in Ft. Worth. I'm not saying I'm a expert, but the food is decent. My parents had the enchiladas, they said they could have a little seasoning in the meat. I had the Chili Relleno this time. It was very tasty. I was wishing there were 2 on the plate! But I did get the lunch special, and I really didn't need 2! The rice and beans where about the same as they are everywhere. Chips and salsa where good. The service was ok, I had to stop someone to get a refill on my tea.

    A friend and I stopped in for a late lunch, we were seated immediately by a very friendly hostess. Through my Yelp check-in and we received free Queso along with our complementary chips and salsa. I love Chili Relleno's so asked if the Chili Relleno's were homemade and the waiter said they were frozen - he was not sure if they were homemade then frozen or bought from a vendor. He said the tamales were homemade, so I ordered the tamale plate without rice. My friend ordered the Chicken fajitas. When our order came out it looked and smelled good, they were very generous with the chicken fajitas, my friend said very tasty and happy with her lunch. The tamales were a huge disappointment, they looked and tasted like Hormel canned tamales - one bite, and there was no way that was homemade. When the very nice waiter came back to check on use, I told him I did not like the tamales - he asked if I would like something else, I did not so he removed the tamale plate from our check - that was excellent customer service.

    Service was good. Salsa and queso was good. I had the Monterey chicken which was ok, parts of it was a little tough.

    Always a great place to go! Great Mexican restaurant... Only thing I thing they could do better on is adding white queso dip to their menu!
