    Tacos de Birria (3 tacos) - consomé
    Angel A.

    Currently on a roadtrip with my little sister. Stopping for the night in Tulsa we were craving Mexican food. Never been to Oklahoma so I didn't know what to expect. Being from Chicago, I tend to be a bit spoiled when it comes to Mexican food. So I may be a bit critical here... Birria tacos for me with charro beans and rice. My sister got the carne asada tacos. Tortillas were pretty good quality and doubled up, so I appreciate that. Beef in the birria tacos was ok and they were cheesed up pretty well. My only gripe was the consommé was pretty thin and more of a beefy jus than the lustrious dip you get in Chicago. Carne asada tacos were only ok. But I mean it's carne asada so it's going to be bland compared to birria. The chips that were served to start were super thin. The tortillas they have, but fried, would make for a very good tortilla chip. Overall it was a decent dinner.

    I have gone to Bravos many times before and the experience has always been good! The service is always good and staff is helpful and kind. Today I branched out and had something totally different than the usual Fajita Nachos, which are incredibly delicious by the way. But saw the California Fish Tacos and decided to give them a try. I am sooooooo glad I did... they were amazing! The fish was seasoned and fired to perfection and topped with a cabbage, tomato, and cilantro combination that can't be beat! The sauce was a great addition as well! If you've been there and haven't tried them, go back! Try them! If you don't like them, bring them to me!

    Now I know why everyone raves about this place! Not only was our waiter so attentive and friendly, but the food came out super fresh, quick, and hot. I loved having the guacamole made in front of us, and it was honestly some of the best guacamole I've ever had. The portions were the perfect size, the booths were huge, and the prices were pretty reasonable considering the high quality of the food!

    My wife and I have drove by this place several times, and we finally decided to give it a try. The service the food all great my wife and I tried three of the dishes and all three are great. We will be back. Nothing over the top as far as atmosphere but it's a large space that can support large groups and the have outside seating. Service is fast and friendly. Food comes out hot.

    We decided to come to Bravos for a quick bite to eat after work. It was mid. The queso had great flavor but was lukewarm. Especially the middle. The taco soup I got was pretty bland. It was huge bowl though. My boyfriend got four meat fajitas that were pretty good! Grilled shrimp, steak, carnitas and chicken. They were very flavorful and the shrimp were pretty jumbo! If we were to come back, the fajitas would be what I would get. It was pretty busy inside but food came out fast!

    Tacooooooos!

    I've been going to this place for years now. They have great food and good service. I love the taco happy hour. Totally worth it. Fajitas are good too. You can ask for hotter salsa as well. The bar area is nice. I would recommend this place over other Mexican food restaurants.

    This is an interesting place with definitely two different personalities. The bar area has some character and a whole different vibe. It was full at 7 PM and looked where I would like to be. The main dining room looks like a cafeteria. It's loud , dirty and loaded with groups of tables of cackling women, or loud familia groups. So distracting you can't enjoy a private meal. Food was good. Typical Grande plates of Tex-Mex that you get everywhere. Our server was just OK and when she wasn't waiting on us, she was sweeping the floor and rolling silverware. One star for the Heaping plates of food that can feed two adults . One star for a functioning partially clean bathroom. One star for fair pricing. Minus one star for the dirty menus , tables , shakers, and greasy floors. Minus one star for the noise level and cafeteria setting. Another thing surprising inside the dirty drink menu on the table has no pricing? I guess they get to fluctuate the prices based on their ?? I know this is a regular place for a lot of people and they won't get this review.

    This little strip mall restaurant gets 5 stars from me for the TOP SHELF GUACAMOLE and FROZEN MARGARITAS. Ended up here in a scary Oklahoma downpour. Turns out Monday is $9 chicken Fajitas so I ordered that. I saw some stellar looking Guac so asked about it. Bravos has "regular" and top shelf so I pointed over at the neighboring table. Amiga got Top Shelf. Out came a dude with the whole cart for table side guac where he proceeded to concoct some marvelous guac with no less than 3 THREE Avocados!! Omg! And yes, it tasted as good as it looked. Some of the best restaurant guac I have ever had. Amiga also got a frozen "small" rita that was strong and delicious and huge. Fajitas came out and they were ENORMOUS. They tasted great! I had boxes to take home with me. I sat in the bar because it was "cozier" and was able to watch Lara Croft Tomb Raider ( the remake), soccer, and jam out to the sweet tunes of the glass animals and Brittany. I was not bored. The rain kept coming One thing to note is the dishes were very very very mild. If you like spice and hot peppers, ask for it. The salsa was mild, the fajitas and pico de gallo were mild. Mild as in 0 on a scale of 1-10.

    fajita lunch! steak and chicken
    Waily C.

    Went here on a sunday afternoon around 2pm. was surprised to find out that they offer lunch specials even on weekends! We ordered an enchilada lunch special (cheese and beef) as well as the lunch fajita platter (steak and chicken). both meals were so good and really flavorful. They weren't too busy either so the food came out super quick and the Coke we ordered was really bubbly which was a plus for me bc i always seem to crave soda when i have mexican food. I highly recommend going here. we will be back soon!

    Love it!

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.

The menu features many Mexican food favorites. Enchiladas, burritos, tacos and more. They're cooked well and served in large portions by a helpful server. A note - some of the dishes are plain and include a protein charge. I'm not a huge fan, but I'm okay with it if it's explained. I was confused during my visit because my enchiladas listed a $2.50 protein charge, but the protein charge was for each enchilada not the plate, so my three enchilada plate was $7.50 more than it was listed because I asked for chicken. I don't necessarily feel cheated, however I was surprised when the server gave me the bill. $2.50 is one thing. $7.50 is a lot more.

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.
