Rojas mexican restaurant

We finally decided to go try this restaurant, and happy we did. I love that its closer to my house and much quieter than "the other restaurant" in town. My daughter really wanted to go in to look bc of the age of the house. Food was all great, salsa was great, and you get queso before the meal. The only negative Id have is, we didn't know.if we seat ourselves and nobody was up front, and when it was time to pay, nobody was around again.

Friday night and they kept up with the pre-football game crowds. Friendly staff but struggled a bit with English, please note my Spanish is not great. The cocktail menu is incredible! We loved our margarita! Wished the salsa was spicier. We look forward to sampling more of their menu!

This review was originally posted on Yelp Jun 23, 2022, by me Spike Speewell. I had driven by Nate’s Diner many times, and every time I thought who the heck eats “Diner Food?” Nate said he realized that the Mexican food selections he offered, were more in demand than the typical “Diner Food” selections on his menu. So, he painted the house red, dedicated the menu to Mexican food and changed the sign out front to “Rojas Authentic Mexican Food” It worked! It drew my wife and I in for a meal. Rojas operates in a cool, properly repurposed, historical home built in 1909! My wife went with the Burrito Chili Verde. A large burrito filled with lean delicious pork covered with Rojas special tomatillo sauce. Very good! I had trouble making up my mind. The very nice waitress offered some suggestions, pointing out their most popular offerings, and noted that today “Thursday’s Special” (and every Thursday) was Rojas Tacos. (Aka. Red tacos and Birria de Res). Red Tacos seem to be the latest rage at all of the cutting-edge Oklahoma Mexican Restaurants. Never had it. What better time than now. Plentiful chunks of lean beef in the red dipped tacos, the right amount of spice for a great flavor and tasty beef stew for dipping. There was a small cup of house made tomatillo salsa on the side, that blended so perfectly with all the flavors. This is a great two or three napkin meal and I am glad I tried it at Rojo’s first! Nate and staff very friendly, give Rojas a try. Both meals, fresh, hot and delicious. We liked it! Note: Check the pictures for more descriptions of the food and the current menu. Bonus! Spikes Inessential Commentary: I recently read a review somewhere, for Rojas Authentic Mexican, written by an expert foodie from the land of Del Taco. The astute reviewer stated that “the salsa was watery.” Hmmmmm. Well, it is a liquid…. The salsa is not watery! Get back in the car and keep on driving. This the land of delicious Oklahoma Mexican Food.

So the service was terrific, I had a pork enchilada. Just told them to surprise me. It was really good. I had the birria burrito. It was decent but not amazing. The place was kinda neat for sure and the drinks were awesome. Huge margaritas for fair prices. Would absolutely come back.

I enjoyed their shrimp tacos. All their salsas were really thin and bland. They serve complimentary white cheese sauce with their tortilla chips. They are putting an old house to good use! I will return when I am in the area to check out other items on their menu.
