Love the food here! We come here every time we visit Tulsa. The vampiro taco is amazing and the staff are great! The beef cheek meat is soooo tender and tasty. Prices are very affordable and there’s a big parking lot in the back.

I have been wanting to eat here for years, so finally got the chance to do that recently. I was in the mood for tacos, so I ordered two crispy tacos. I really wanted ground beef, but they only have shredded beef or steak, so I went with shredded. I also ordered a shrimp taco and two tostadas – one with pork and one without meat. I also got guacamole and queso and two Mexican cokes. My order cost me $31 – which is really reasonable! Unfortunately, when I tried my food, it wasn’t very good. That’s probably my fault since I ordered to-go. There chips and guacamole were were good. Everything else wasn’t that great. I will try again by eating at the restaurant.

While passing through Tulsa, OK today, I finally stopped in to try El Rio Verde Mexican Restaurant after hearing several mentions of their famous “Wet Burrito.” Just a few blocks from The Outsiders Museum—one of my favorite little Tulsa stops—this spot is the definition of a “hole in the wall.” Honestly, it’s the kind of place some folks might pass right by without a second glance. But let me tell you—it was busy, and that burrito had been on my mind all morning.
I was greeted quickly and told to sit wherever I liked. The place is small—maybe 16 tables—but it had a steady flow of customers. Chips, salsa, and a menu landed on the table right away, and I ordered up some queso and their well-known Wet Burrito with Al Pastor.
The queso arrived first and was solid, then just a few minutes later came the main event: that big, cheesy, saucy burrito that’s earned this place its local reputation. It was loaded with flavorful Al Pastor and topped with melted cheese, salsa, a scoop of sour cream, and guacamole. Definitely a hearty meal.
Overall? It was good. Not the best I’ve ever had, but certainly worth a try—especially if you’re in the mood for something bold and satisfying. I’d stop in again when the craving hits. The Outsiders House Museum El Rio Verde Mexican Restaurant

First impressions aren’t great. Old rundown building with gravel parking lot. But when we pull up and there’s 25 to 30 cars outside, you know it’s gotta be good. Once you walk in you can tell it’s a quaint old diner that’s been converted into a Mexican restaurant but still has the swivel barstools at the front counter. The menu is simple, one page front and back, but as I learned, it’s very authentic. On this trip, I tried the signature wet burrito with shredded beef as it comes highly recommended and a classic Mexican taco with Al Pastor. Both are out of this world. It left me wanting more as I couldn’t get enough of this authentic Mexican food and this little restaurant. It’s off the beaten path, but definitely worth the side trip to this little quaint restaurant for out of this world Mexican.

Update! Came back with my husband and he fell in love! Still not a fan of the chips and salsa but these fajita steak burritos were delicious
Read reviews and had to try while visiting Tulsa.. Went with a friend (we are from Mustang, OK) and my daughter in law from California. We started with chips and salsa wasn’t impressed with that at all but the dinner, atmosphere and service was phenomenal

Stopped here on my way driving across country for lunch and was one of the best meals of my trip! Easy access right off the highway and although its in a desolate looking neighborhood, the area seemed safe. Plenty of parking in the side lot. Lots of friendly locals coming and going and was surprised at the quality of the super authentic Mexican food from this little spot. Very retro vibe inside with counter and table service. The girl behind the counter couldn’t have been nicer and they had my order ready to go in 15 minutes. I ordered the chicken enchiladas and they were some of the best I have ever eaten. The red sauce was amazing. Was spicy but not hot, just the slow burn where you need to go back for more. Corn tortillas were super fresh. If I lived close by, would be in every week. Between the atmosphere, service, good prices and quality of food, you can’t do much better.
