Description: One of my favorite places to have lunch or dinner is Los Cabos Mexican Grill. I have yet to find a better eatery, it has it all. To start, every time I go in I feel as if I am transported to the Mexican Riviera. The warmth of the walls paired with the large fish, pottery, dark wood, and water displays makes me remember our days in Mazatlan and Los Cabos last year. My favorite table is one on the open patio, not the large outdoor area with its own bar and music stage, but the patio with the large garage type doors that overlook the large pond and its ducks and swans. It’s best during the early summer with a cool breeze stirring around you.
The staff here is some of the best I have ever had; we have not had a bad waiter. Everyone is friendly and attentive. The food is mostly tex-mex with Mexican touches. You begin your meal with tortilla chips and salsa. They have three different kinds: mild, hot, and tomatillo which is a green mixture of tomatillos, avocados, and peppers, a light and fresh salsa. We always get the queso dip which is made with yellow cheese, peppers, onions and tomatoes. I love the mahi mahi tacos and the shrimp tacos. And of course there is the seafood enchilada which has crab, shrimp and avocados. They do have grilled fish as well. Their traditional menu is large and covers two pages of a menu board. If I’m not in the mood for seafood I will usually get the fajita chicken chimichanga with sour cream and queso. Mike usually gets the same thing every time we go, beef enchiladas and cheese with onion enchiladas. These are very tasty as well. You have a choice of black beans, refried beans or boraccho beans which are a pinto bean cooked with beer, onion and peppers and served in the bean juice. Rice is usually a favorite but if you want to try a little something different, try the mashed potatoes made with peppers and cheese.
On weekends there is standing room only, so come early or go ahead and plan for a weekday. This place is very popular for families as well as large groups. Our usual time is to arrive about 5pm or 4:30 if it’s Friday. One thing to remember, if you are with a large group they will not seat you until all your party is there. This can be frustrating when you are waiting for that one person who is always late. They have a large lunch menu which is fast and priced about $2 less than the dinner entrees.
There are 2 locations, one in Broken Arrow and one in Jenks, but both are essentially in Tulsa. Their website is www.loscabos.com. The price is acceptable. Most entrees will run $8-15 with the alcoholic drinks $6-10 but they are so good. Los Cabos says they have the best margarita in Tulsa. You will have to try that yourself since I don’t care for them. Our check will usually run about $35-40 for 2 entrees, 2 cokes, and queso, not bad for a date night or just a quick bite to eat. I hope you will try our favorite restaurant.
