This is probably my favorite Mexican restaurant downtown. They don't have many Mexican restaurants downtown like this. The drinks were really good and the food was amazing. They also have a really good Molcajete. The service was really good and the vibe is always really nice. But I know why they called the lazy donkey because you eat so good that your ass feels lazy lol I'm just kidding. I love this place. Ill keep going back. read more

Lunch at the Lazy Donkey at Reno and Walker. The place was hopping. They were a little busy, had about a 5 minute wait. They brought chips and salsa and I ordered queso. I ordered a chili releno with cheese. Never saw the server again until she brought the chili releno. Never got the queso. The chili releno was very good. The service was below average, but they were very busy. Because of the crowd it was a little noisy. Prices are moderate. read more

So the burrito was what I ordered and the beans and rice was good but the chicken in the burrito was way over done. Was a bit disappointed and the kiddo got the wings and he said they were cold so they sat for a while. It was a basketball night and they were busy but... service was a bit slow but she was apologetic about it with how busy it was and it was. Will have to come back and try something else when it's not too busy. read more

Looking for a great spot to scratch that Tex Mex itch? Here you go! *points to Lazy Donkey* The food was sooo good and the service was quick. They'll be sure to get you in and out quickly, meaning you can stop in here on your lunch break or even before a Thunder home game. read more

Service from my waitress, Daniela, was very attentive: I wanted for nothing. I ordered a frozen house margarita and the veggie quesadillas. The chips and salsa taste homemade. I agree with other positive reviews of the salsa. The quesadillas were so loaded with sauteed mushrooms, broccoli, and cheese, a fork and were needed. So tasty. The margarita was flavorful if a little light on the tequila. The interior decor is bright and festive., The music volume was perfect to allow conversation, but was a bit too up tempo for dining. read more

Great food great service and prices are very reasonable I would recommend this restaurant to anyone and everyone

Really good food--fresh chips, tacos are great, good place to stop for lunch or dinner, close to downtown

It's my girlfriend's birthday! The birthday girl chose this location, she'd been before. It was my first time and I enjoyed the atmosphere and food! Oh yeah, the mango margarita was poppin! Once we ordered from the lunch menu, the food came quickly. Chips and salsa complimentary and queso $$$$. The food was fresh and hot. It was simply delicious. Service was prompt and friendly. I look forward to returning! read more

Food wasn't bad but the service wasn't great. Really slow. I'll try it again in case it was an off day for them.

They seem to be getting greedy. Their prices are much higher than other places in the area, and have began to nickle and dime for everything. The ala cart menu, $4.99 for 1 cheese enchiladas, then charged me an extra $3.95 for a tablespoon of cheese on top of it. I ordered 1 cheese queso, 2 cheese enchiladas with a tablespoon of cheese on top and a glass of Iced tea. My bill was $26.97 That's ridiculous. Doubt if I will be back. Chelinos, here I come read more

This place has went downhill so bad. If you want 7 people sitting/standing around while your drink is empty, the manager talking to girls while he looks at your empty glass, frozen butter and cold tortillas, tea that's so watered-down it's almost clear, then this is your place! Prices have went up and the number of selections has went down. The food continues to decline, everything just has a funny taste, and the cheese dip is water-thin. Lunch "specials" at $11.99 for a scaled-down menu... just no good reason to go to this place. 1-star is too high. Do better. Lazy Donkey is a good name because that's excatly what you're gonna get. read more

A different sort of a Mexican restaurant. Overall I would say it was good and I enjoyed my meal as did my wife but not sure if this restaurant is for us. The service was good, hostess was pleasant and sat us right away and our server was prompt and attentive! The restaurant quickly filled up and it even though it was our first time here this is no doubt a popular place to dine. I had the Burrito Texano and my wife chose the Enchiladas - both were tasty. read more

AMAZING! 10/10! Looking for authentic Mexican food, casual dining, and reasonable prices? This is THE place! In the heart of downtown, the restaurant is nestled on the perfect corner. The interior was beautifully decorated. We were seated promptly, and our service the entire time was great. The menu was full of options. We ordered the fajitas texanas, without beef. We also got a choriqueso- white queso dip with chorizo added. And, of course, we asked for a spicier salsa. And it brought the heat. Everything was delicious, and filling. The portions are huge! We were just two eating the fajita, but it definitely could have served four. I've finally found my go-to place for Mexican food in OKC. I can't wait to visit again really soon :) read more

Popped in here on a Saturday afternoon with a friend. Overall it was a positive experience, but in all honesty I probably will not return- unless it's for the setup and beer alone. The service was great, our waitress was super patient with us since we couldn't decide what we wanted. We did order the choriqueso, which was good, but be prepared it's more of a white queso (I still enjoyed it). The salsa was amazing and we got refills. We ordered the habanero salsa and that was a solid choice for us. If you're looking for Mexican beers, they have Victoria and Sol, not all places do so this was a win. Now for the main course- we ordered from the house combo selection and ordered a bit of everything. The chili relleno, was soggy due to the sauce so request it without the sauce. The tamale was good, I would get that again. The beans and rice were good. The tostada, enchilada, and taco were all lack luster. I'd prefer taco bell over those, and I hate taco bell. They had no flavor and were blan. Maybe opt for a different meat option if possible? We got ground beef, and don't do it. Anyway. Overall, I did enjoy the experience. Food was decent, service was great, beer was good, setup was amazing, and the ambiance was pretty fun and festive. I recommend trying it at least once. read more

The Lazy Donkey used to be on top of our Mexican restaurant list. We recently dined after a few months of not eating here. Nothing seemed the same. A very unfriendly young lady seated us and seemed as if she couldn't wait to get back to the bar area to chat with her co workers. Salsa was very disappointing. The flavor was off, texture was off. Our entree meats seemed to be flavored the same. A greasy red. Even though according to the menu they should be different. I'm sad to say we won't be returning since this was our go to in the downtown area. read more

We were leaving Okc and decided to try The Lazy Donkey, luckily our first choice was closed! Lol. We had the Huervos Mexicano and the Green Chile Verde. Yummy!!! My brother got a margarita and he said it was tasty. He can be kind of picky but the Donkey got his seal of approval. We were greeted promptly and seated in a corner booth. It's a got a cool, Mexican theme restaurant vibe. It's was nice and clean. Will definitely return when I'm in the area! read more

If I could give this place -1000 I would. We walked in and my plan was to eat and purchase a gift card for my best friend. We were seated and my husband went to the bathroom. Chips and salsa were placed on the table. That's it. No drinks. Nothing else. For 15mins we were just looked at. The staff were all crowded around the bar area watching us and talking and someone who was probably a regular, was sat after us next to us. In those 15mins his order was taken, he was given drinks and checked on. I refused to let my husband flag someone down because again, they were looking right at us. After 15mins we left and before we could hit the door, the bus boy was at the table clearing it. It's been years since I've felt unwanted somewhere but Lazy Donkey definitely did it. I hope they have the success they deserve. ***** I waited a month to make this review so that it wasn't done in the heat of the moment and in anger**** read more

Excellent lunch spot! The food was delicious and the service was fast and friendly. Great prices.

This place sucks. The food was mediocre but the clincher of bad experience was the beginning. They do not offer queso cheese with the setup. Every Mexican restaurant gives queso, salsa and sometimes the veggies ( carrots and onions) but when they brought out setup they brought no cheese. Only chips and salsa . I was told they do not offer cheese , something I feel should have been disclosed BEFORE we were made to feel obligated to stay since they already put the chips on table and taken order. It was during a slow time yet out waitress was unattentive and I had to ask my drink be refilled TWICE . She also just stared at her phone 15 feet from us . I live less than one mile from this place and I'll never go there again read more

Food was good. But when we got the bill. It wasn't correct. The manager rolled his eyes at us, tossed back the corrected version. It ruined the whole meal and ambiance of the good time we were having. We will not be back. read more

Good lunch specials and the margaritas are great. Very affordable and friendly staff.

The last time we went there, the parking lot wasn't free, it was $11.00 for 2 hours. We like the food, but went somewhere else.

In my humble opinion: Curb appeal: not very appealing. In fact- I drove past it thinking I would be looking for a flashier spot. Dining room was very festive. Chips and salsa had some spice. Staff was friendly- but sometimes there was a communication barrier. For example- just wanted an extra plate. But for $8 I was brought and extra rice and beans set up. Oh well. Margarita were $13 and delicious. Jalapeño flavored and spicy too. The molcajete chock full of pork, chicken, steak, shrimp and onion was unbelievably delicious. $18 This was one of the best meals I've had in a while. Very good. Definitely recommend. read more

This place is wonderful. I've ordered from them through DoorDash ( my first time getting their food) and it was great. Every time I come here it's wonderful, the salsa is amazing, flavorful, spicy but not over so. I tried a combination plate with a taco and a chicken enchilada w/red sauce. ALLL of it was wonderful, the red sauce has depth and great flavor, the taco ( ground beef) was awesome. I'm picky about tacos and this was great across the board. Magnifico!! read more

The food was amazingly delicious and was served quickly in a beautiful presentation. The beans and guacamole were served in a tostada bowl instead of just thrown on a plate. Great effort was taken to serve a nice looking dish. We were seated promptly and our waiter was quick and extremely attentive. I was delighted at the fun atmosphere and the music was happy and upbeat. read more

The Lazy Donkey - DELICIOUS!!!! - Mexican Near Me - Oklahoma, Oklahoma

Nice staff greeted us and seated us with no wait. Sarah was our server and took our order and did fantastic. Living on the NW side of town we wanted to go to the location we used to visit all the time in Moore...however this was 20 miles closer. We headed downtown hungry for Mexican and margaritas and super yummy cheese dip... Lazy pollo for us. Burger & taco for the girls. (Yeppers leftovers) Drank the peach margarita so fast didn't even get a picture of it. We got our food and it was piping hot after a short wait. Our order was accurate and we definitely will return when in the situation of hunger and in the area. I really felt valued with my interaction with the staff. They were pleasant and smiling....that goes a long way! Bathrooms were clean and parking was well lit. Thank you again for being awesome. Respectfully, Bryan Yukon Oklahoma read more

The Lazy Donkey has a prime downtown spot but feels more like an authentic Mexican restaurant. Not fancy - with a large menu and plenty of Mexican vibe. :) Great place for the family. Food was in huge portions! Everything tasted good and service was quick and pleasant. My oldest got a Nacho Supreme and with all the toppings, my Queso loving daughter thought it needed more Queso cuz it got buried down at the bottom. The younger two shared a Nacho Fajita with steak and even though my kids don't like onion, we took it how it is and they both said that the onions and bellpeppers had all flavors so they kept putting onions on each bite. I call that a win! My wife and I had the Parrillada Mexicana (single) as well as the carne Asada platter. The PM was a hot skillet with steak, chicken, shrimp, pork and chorizo. I got rice, beans, pico and sour cream on the side with some flour tortillas. The carne Asada was two pieces of steak with pico, guac, rice, and beans. They were both good and fairly large. Their white Queso was tasty- I don't know if I'd call it OKC's famous Queso but all in we had a good experience so we would recommend it. read more

It doesn't look like much from the outside, but when you enter you're welcomed into a clean, colorful, well lit space. The staff is friendly and the service is above average. They don't serve free queso with the setup and while the chips and salsa are not exotic, they have good flavor and you can tell they are fresh. I ordered the fajita chicken nachos and substituted bell pepper for jalapeños. It was covered in grilled onions and grilled jalapeños and had a decent amount of queso blanco on the nachos. They were good but I'll likely try enchiladas when I eventually return. Overall it's a good restaurant and worth a visit. read more

I dined here for lunch with my mom on a Wednesday. From the outside you wouldn't expect much but the inside is super cute! (Forgot to take a pic) The chips and salsa are complementary. The waitress was friendly. I really loved the salsa. I ordered the juevos rancheros and my mom got the lunch fajita special. It was one of the best juevos rancheros I've had and I get it anywhere that has it so I've tried a lot. Their sauce on top was really good and the eggs were just right. I got rice and borracho beans as my sides and they were both really good. My mom got the chicken fajitas with rice and roasted corn. She said the corn was really good. She loves corn. We got tortillas on the side with both as well. The small margarita was 8.99 the large was 11(12?).99. I know they have specials sometimes as well. Today's was an enchilada special for 8.99. By the time we left they had every table full. All in all really good. I would come again. read more

Great food and highly recommend most items on the menu! If it wasn't so far would come more often!

I have been looking for a more authentic Mexican restaurant here in Oklahoma and this cures my cravings! It doesn't look very pretty from the outside but the inside is bright and vibrant! I had chicken fajita nachos to play it safe and they were delicious. They have a wide variety of dishes. You can get a mocajete, enchiladas, chile colorado, huevos con chorizo, and many others. Give it a try, I think you'll enjoy it! read more
