    Taco Baja
    Kelle O.

    Cute place and decor. Outdoor seating Food was good but not nothing special. The service lacking and they were not busy. Food presentation was good. We had chips/salsa/queso and guacamole. The guac was fair. Menu had lots of options. We chose the Taco Baja and it was good. Overall didn't knock my socks off.

    birria tacos // ig: @sandyeatslocal

    kalakas is a new mexican restaurant that has replaced the old san marcos restaurant. the restaurant is so colorful and beautiful inside with this skull-themed design throughout the area. I ordered the birria tacos which were recommended from our attentive and sweet server. we had the complimentary set-up to start, and then my tacos were so delicious! the meat was incredibly tender, and the broth was flavorful and overall well-made. this has taken the reign for the best birria taco I've ever had. I also got an horchata (not pictured), but it was so sweet and yummy. i'm excited to come back!

    Pros: We saw some really good TikTok videos that made this place look really good. They have put some work into making it a hip place. Seems to be family owned and they are working hard. The Elote was delicious! And there are some really good photo opportunities here. We got drink refills and they have wifi. Cons: chips were stale, and the main dishes (Birria tacos and street tacos) were disappointing. No alcohol yet but they are working on it! Overall: I'd give them some more time to perfect their timing, recipes, and service structure.

    Stop whatever Mexican joint you usually go to and come here! Hands down the best Mexican I've had since moving to OKC. The birria tacos were authentic and flavorful. Ordered the perfect margarita and it didn't disappoint either. Best I've had ever! Service was so quick and payed attention to every detail. Brought us out a fresh bowl of their hot salsa, fresh roasted peppers and all! My kids loved the lights and colorful decor around. We will definitely be making the drive here every time we want Mexican from now on.

    We really enjoyed the food. The decor is very cool--Day of the Dead vibe. Our server was friendly. We will definitely be back.

    There are a lot of fried chicken places everywhere, and go to any of those, not Zaxbys. Zaxbys…read moretastes like a sad chemically knock-off version of caines. Fingers are all kinds of different sizes, some very long. Others short. All skinny. All oily. None appetizing. The sauce tastes like a very unfresh batch of caines sauce plus a mega load of preservatives. Fries. You're looking at 2 orders. That's not a lot of fries. Some were super oily and soft, some undercooked, none nice and cripsy on the outside with a soft inside. Toast was sad and oily. For fast food. I expect it to be edible, fast, and affordable. I didn't even come close to finishing this because I was working through each bite like a toddler eating boiled unseasoned spinach. So, while technically, it was edible, it was pretty close to not being edible. Fast, they had the order out timely. Affordable for the price of zaxbys, I could have eaten happy hour sushi, good fried chicken 2-3 times, panera, etc. They are so expensive for what you get. Seriously, pick anywhere else, and you've got better odds of enjoying the food. Truly, you couldn't pay me to eat here again. I'll go to one of the 20 other fried chicken places in a 10-mile radius and actually enjoy my meal. Again, terrible quality, inconsistent, pricey, but they did have nice employees and good service.

Tomyam is genuinely one of the best I've had since I moved to OK . It's sour and spicy in all the best ways, just like we make it back home in SE Asia! Most places don't make it quite right, not sour enough or just not flavorful in general but Banana Thai aced it. Hubby loved the green curry too and said it was really good as well. So far we are super happy with the place and we will definitely be back!

I and everyone else dining while I was here had to get up and get the server for assistance of any kind. One of the two kept running outside every 5-10 minutes to smoke right in front of the entrance. The food is bland and way over priced. They used to have a lovely lunch special with appropriate portions and price. Not the case now. No spice or flavor to the food or sauces. Proteins were way overcooked. When I did finally get my bill, the server asked me for the PIN to my debit card! No. That's not how this works. Also, I hesitate to mention this, but a roach was running between tables as I was leaving. There are way too many options for delicious Thai food in OKC to visit this spot again.
