A Little More Spice. If you’re a fan of TexMex, New Mexican or Southwestern cuisine, you’ve come to the right place. Frida Southwest in the Paseo District is one of our flagship restaurants, featuring the brilliant work of Executive Chef Quinn Carroll and Pastry Chef Rachel Porter. It’s rare to find a restaurant good at every part of the meal – appetizers, entrees, dessert, wine and cocktails – but Frida nails it in every category. For delicious TexMex, try Barrios Fine Mexican Dishes in Midtown. The chorizo queso and fish tacos are among the best dishes in the city. Here on a cold day? Head over to Hacienda Tacos for New Mexican specialties like posole and green chile stew. Tacos and Trucks. If you’re the adventurous type, hit an ATM and then head to the south side for a tour of our taco trucks. You can also find plenty of choices on the west side, including Taqueria Sanchez , the one that started the taco truck craze here, and Taqueria Rodriquez , a truck at NW 10th and Portland with the city’s best quesabirria tacos. For sit-down dining, it’s impossible to beat Trompudo’s Tacos , with their Mexico City-style approach that includes brilliant al pastor from the trompo, and a full bar that includes stellar frozen margaritas and specialty drinks.

European Headliners. The Buthion brothers moved to Oklahoma from France more than 40 years ago, and we’re thrilled they stayed, because La Baguette Bistro offers outstanding French cuisine at breakfast, lunch and dinner from the pioneer for French cuisine in the state, Chef Alain Buthion. Executive Chef Jonathan Krell is the powerhouse behind Patrono , with their emphasis on modern Italian food downtown. If you’re going to a show at the Civic Center, Patrono is a short walk, and you’ll be glad you stopped in for the carbonara or any of the other brilliant dishes. South American Gems. Our city has a wealth of talent from Central and South America, and while many of the Guatemalan, Honduran and Salvadoran places are off the beaten path, the food at Tienda Guatemala , Pupuseria mi Chalateca and Mi Tierra Sabor Catracho make them worth a visit
for adventurous eaters. For empanadas Colombian style – and sobrebarriga – El Fogon de Edgar is the best choice. Cafe Antigua (rustic) and Cafe Kacao (modern) offer two delicious and popular takes on Guatemalan cuisine from the same family. If you love potatoes (and huancaina sauce), Naylamp has remarkable Peruvian cuisine, including mind-blowing chicken salad.
