Unlike what you may have seen on the TV series "Yellowstone," if you get taken to the train station in Seminole; it's a good thing! Don Ciro's occupies the old Seminole railroad station. The old building has been preserved and is now a nicely decorated Mexican restaurant. Of all of the rundown, repurposed buildings that I have visited across N.E. Oklahoma, which are now Mexican restaurants, this is the coolest building of them all! It is worth a visit just to see the structure; the great Mexican food is a bonus. The restaurant is nicely decorated. The service is excellent. The mild salsa was freshly made, just delivered from the blender. Tomatoes (fresh tomatoes, not cooked or canned), cilantro, maybe some onion and that was it. A little too mild and a little to watery for most hard core OkieMex gourmands. The picante salsa had more body and spice; it was great. Queso also comes with the chips. It was tasty, but a little thinner viscosity then I would have preferred. Even as depicted, I still enjoyed it all. The cups were empty at the end of the meal. The menu pictures sold the meals. I spotted the # 39 Combination Plate (tamale, crisp taco, an enchilada and beans and rice) a delicious looking "way too much" plate of food. My wife was drawn to the # 22 Comelon (carne asada torta with two carne asada tacos.) Let's start with the #22. Having just finished chewing the first bite of the taco, my wife declared it to be the "best taco she had ever had." The excellent meat, fresh toppings, along with the radish and lime slice on the side persuaded her proclamation. Her predicament now was, she had a tremendous sized, meat filled torta untouched on her plate. Declaring her plan "no way was the other taco going to be left behind." What ever is left of the torta can ride home. Oh yeah, it too was declared the best torta. The two cups of salsa that came with the meal (different than the table sauce) were the perfect condiments. My Combination Plate was equally delicious, from the spicy ground beef in the crispy taco, to the flavorful chicken in the enchilada and tamale. The beans were above average! Great food in a cool old building. Ask for a ride to the train station; the food is "on track." read more
