This Mexican restaurant is amazing and they have excellent soups and rice dishes, their tilapia entree was great and they also have a wide assortment of beverages like horchata, pina (pineapple), tamarindo, jamaica, limonada and more. Top notch service: you order at a counter and they bring the food out to you. Interior atmosphere very coolly decorated with paintings, blankets, and other accouterments. Highly recommended! read more

Slightly overpriced but good. One of my favorite places on the south side of OKC. Overall excellent customer service

So, my grandma lives relatively close to this place and I had a craving for some tacos being that it is Tuesdee after all The place was mostly empty when I came in today. I thought it was counter service (later found out there is a waitress) so, I ordered there and once I say I was greeted with a small cup of queso and chips. The queso wasn't very thick but, I enjoyed the flavor very much! My food came out right as I finished the small basked of chips. I ordered 3 tacos: barbacoa, chicken, steak and they were absolutely delicious! All the meats were cooked perfect and seasoned well, tortillas were slightly crisp. Loved each one of those especially with their wonderful green sauce. The beans were a little under seasoned but, these were absolutely the best tacos I've had in the last few years. 9/10 easily recommend! read more

Restaurant El Milagro - Mexican Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

I tried a few of the tacos here, and I'm not a big fan. Meats were too tough and chewy, and they fry their tortillas long enough to partially crisp them, only compounding the chewiness. Kudos to the fresh tortillas, but simply warming the tortillas and leaving them soft may help some. I'll break down the meats. Al pastor was the better of the bunch, but still only just okay..large and saucy diced chunks of pork, sauce a little bland for me, flavor reminded me of a meat stew. Asada was even tougher, with too much gristle I had to spit out. Carnitas wet and chewy, tasted unseasoned. For $2-3 each they are the standard street taco size, and all but the all pastor could use a little more filling, and veggies on all were a bit light. The folks running the place were very friendly. Though it was hard to order over the phone. The man didn't prefer communicating in English, and then passed my husband off to a woman with little knowledge of the menu and none of prices. I can't speak to the rest of their menu, but there are much better places for tacos nearby. But I do hear good things about their Mexican-style hamburger. Next time. read more

Restaurant El Milagro - Hamburger w fries - Mexican Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

I've been slacking on the food posts (and it's not for lack of food Inspo) THERE ARE JUST SO MANY GOOD PLACES I CANT KEEP UP! A few weeks ago my good friend Diana posted this really cute taqueria so I had to check it out. I got Asada and Tripitas.... I can't eat tripitas unless they are extra crispy... so I had to send them back for some Carnitas, they were pretty good! I was immediately in love with the decor though. All the childhood Mexican idols just all over the place, too freaking cute. read more

They have kidnapped someone's grandmother and have her in the kitchen making all the delicious nom noms! Best I've had in a long time in taste, quality, and price! Stop in for sure! read more

My guacamole was made fresh right at my table, and was singularly delicious. (It merits five stars all by itself!) The cheese sauce was scary, though -- a gelatinous, cornstarch-laden mess whose eery yellow color does NOT exist in nature. Very clean interior. Very friendly staff. Authentically Mexican food on the menu with what appear to be only a few token nods to Anglicized Tex Mex crap. Four solid stars with room for improvement. read more

I have not been big on Mexican food. This is in part due to my ignorance of the variety that it offers, and my deathly fear of cilantro(which seems to be in every dish at other places I have been to). Furthermore, my experience with Mexican food is somewhat tainted by chain restaurants. You would think me being a Chinese, and having bear witness to the Americanizing of my people's food, I would be wiser. So it was that I find myself in for a real treat at El Milagro. The decor is very down to earth. From the outside, one would not think much of it; but what it lacks in showmanship, it more than makes for by superb quality in food. Everything is freshly made, you can even peek into the spacious kitchen as they make it. They offer generous portion of chips and salsa. The chips are amazing - crisp, non greasy. They offer several salsa ranging in varying degrees of hotness, and also queso which is done just right (at least you don't actively feel your artery clogging). For beverage, I highly recommend the horchata. I struggle with deciding on the main course as the selection is plenty, and the pictures provided on the wall makes each very enticing. The cow tongue is a rare find, and I definitely recommend it to those who has never had it before. I went with the carne asada, and was extremely pleased with the outcome. The portion was generous, and the soft corn tortillas that came with the meal was great. What I love about this place is that it is not pretentious. Things are made from scratch, and prepared as one would expect from a home cook meal. We weren't rushed in anyway. Just a good sit down restaurant with a mom and pop vibe. It is nice to experience so raw a cultural exchange so close to Oklahoma City, I definitely cherished it. I hope others can too. Tips: Bring cash. Don't be shy with pointing at the pictures and asking about the food. Save room for the flan. read more

Restaurant El Milagro - Mexican Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Some items were better than others. They provide you with complimentary chips, queso, roasted pepper salsa, and green salsa (see photo). The things to avoid when eating here: ...the orange "nacho cheese" tasting queso, it tastes exactly like the kind you get at the movie theater and it was cold. Yuck. ...the asada meat, it tastes very "cow-e" and it kinda grossed me out. Maybe it needed more seasoning?? ...the licuado smoothie drinks, it was served "room temperature" (it's supposed to be cold), and it wasn't very tasty. Mainly just tasted like chocolate milk, I ordered it with strawberries and bananas in it as well, and I couldn't taste the strawberries at all. Things you can eat here: ... the shrimp ceveche tostadas are good. Maybe the best thing they served. ...the adobada taco was tasty. I've never had this kind of taco before. It was pork with pineapple chunks in a red chili type sauce. At first I thought that the pineapples were just chunks of fat and I was removing them, then I tried one of the chunks and was pleasantly surprised! This place features a large menu besides just serving tacos, but overall I was unimpressed with this restaurant compared to other taquerias I have been to. They just don't offer enough great tasting tacos (or anything else) to make me want to come back. But that's just me, I wish them luck. The restaurant was very clean and the staff was friendly. read more

I drove by this place one day and having the munchies, I stopped in to grab a quick snack. Speaking absolutely no Spanish, I walk in and order the first thing that comes to mind. A quesadilla. I ordered mine with beef, and to be blunt, I will never eat a quesadilla from any other place. read more

This place is straight up, mom/pop Mexican food cooking! And it's a breathe of fresh air to find a place like this in Oklahoma City! Reminded me of places my mom would take me to in East Los Angeles (a well known Mexican district of the LA area), the place is in a older sector of Oklahoma City and I believe in what seems to be a small pocket of a Latino community in OKC I tried the tamales with carnitas and it was GREAT! I can't remember if I order horchata (a rice/cinnamon drink) but if I remember right they didn't have it... you also get the typical chips and salsa stuff, rice and beans with your meal The place is very family owned business vibe and the guy at the counter was also serving as my waiter, he did speak english but I could see he seemed to be a immigrant and was still learning the language, I obliged him and spoke what Spanish I knew to help him in ordering what I wanted, the tamale dinner was around $11 IMPORTANT: This place is cash only, I had to learn the hard way when I realized it was and the waiter was extremely nice and told me it was okay, he was going to let me eat my dinner without paying, but I felt so bad I went to the chase bank near by and brought back some cash to pay for my meal. So please if you go to this place bring some cash! Also some other cool stuff... they have at the counter Mexican candy, I saw some gum that I used to see being sold in Mexico a lot, they are small pieces of gum served in small clear packets of 4 a piece, I highly recommend anyone to try it out sometime cuz it tastes great! If you want some good home style Mexican food, come to El Milagro! read more

Visited this place for the second time and it's still goods. The place is never packed but the food is amazing. Usually there are only one or two tables filled so don't be scared of that. It's worth the food. The restaurant does have tv on so you can watch soccer or telenovela, if your into those things. Make sure you bring cash though, they don't take card. I ordered a Horchata and tamale plate. The Horchata was so delicious, it was just right. I could drink this for days but it won't end well. I will say part of one of my tamale was a little burnt/crunchy but still good. When you get there they serve chips, salsa (spicy), and some sort of queso. The price point is still good so I would recommend going. This is on the south side so bring a friend if your not comfortable going by yourself. My friend got a fish plate and boy they give you a whole fish so if you don't like that don't order it. read more
