El Jarocho

So if you guys read my reviews, you know how I am about Mexican food. And I did not have high hopes coming into a Mexican restaurant in the middle of oklahoma, when I can't even find decent Mexican food in California!!!I'll start off by saying the staff for all super nice, about half the restaurant was full with locals, and had nice decorum. I didn't venture past the entryway to order my takeout plate, but place looked really clean, had TVs everywhere, wasn't too noisy, and everybody seemed to be enjoying themselves!!So I was going to just opt for 2 à la carte cheese enchiladas, because should I dare get a burrito here... But I told myself "dude, you're in oklahoma, don't get all pissy".. so I did just that.I flipped through the menu, I guess they have mariscos as well as Mexican Fare... I just wanted to gander at the burrito section. And I started reading what went in the burritos. I cannot believe my eyes, when I didn't see any burritos filled with rice and beans!!! I saw the burrito that I ordered, it was shredded pork and shredded carne and I asked the girl what went inside, and she said whatever I'm reading on the menu is what's in there. No junk inside!!! Take a gander of my photos!!My food came out super hot, and they even gave me a big bag of chips which I won't eat, I shouldn't have taken them but I didn't know until it was too late. The salsa was pretty damn good.The portion size was perfect for me, but I could see a bigger fella complaining. My burrito muhado took about five or six bites to eat, but like I said it was perfect size for me. It was actually really really good. And if I ever come back here, I'll definitely come back!Food was way better than I expected, plus they have a bar, so four solid stars for this place!!! And that's coming from a Cali boy who lived in rosarito mexico!!!!

There were a lot of people dining out today, trying to get that turkey taste out of their mouth, and needing a break before facing a weekend of left over turkey recipes. That includes me.El Jarocho, I believe that refers to a person from Veracruz Mexico. The menu and the dining environment are straight up small town OkieMex. Enormous options and combinations of lightly seasoned Mexican food fill the menu. You will need to blend up the salsa to a more flavorful heat level. I had a # 20 combo; Relleno and Taco; a great relleno and a large beef filled crunchy taco. My wife had a Tamale Lunch. This was a little unusual. The tamale was covered with ground beef and a very tasty orangish "red sauce." Both great meals served with beans and rice. The service was great, fast, and the food is served on the essential very hot plates. My only negative critique is with the chips. The chips were a little stale and mostly the broken too small to use, chip fragments.El Jarocho is a good solid 4-star small town Mexican restaurant. I LMAO when I read a reviewer's bold assessment, "the food here is not authentic Mexican food." Cheezas, lady, everyone working in the restaurant is Hispanic. That's not Irish Stew on your plate.

The calling in and picking up at the drive thru window service is great. Very pleased with the food to, it was warm and packed well.

Yum! Street tacos and strong margaritas are the answers to all of life's questions.The refried beans are as creamy and delectable as they should be.The salsa is other worldly great, all in all, this is a stop worth making! Convenient located walking distance to two massive truck stops, they still go to a lot of effort to make the dining experience as excellent as possible.Obviously it's immaculately clean. The staff is fluently bilingual, but will sometimes bring a second party along to confirm any elements of your order they arent 100% sure of. Kudos to them for not just making a guess to save face! Honesty is always the bravest. I love this little place, and you will too! I am adding it to my truck GPS and hope I get sent this way again!

It's kinda difficult for me to rate this place after only one visit but I'll tell you about my experience. First off, the food was fast, fresh, and pretty darn good. Very flavorful and well prepared. I had the steak and chorizo which I recommend. My partner had enchiladas which were also "good". Service was somewhat lacking....I had to ask 3 times for silverware. Because of the food, I'll be back next time I'm passing thru

Overall this place was an average Mexican restaurant. Food was good. Everything had seasoning. Customer service was ok. Nothing special. Ty for coming, what can I get you? I didn't feel the I'm home vibe. It was alittle pricey. Drink, chili Colorado plate and extra order of corn tortillas was $17+

I was parked at the truck stop across the road and definitely didn't want just something regular so I walked over to try it out and I must say it was absolutely delicious.the service was amazing and friendly staff and the food was amazing.I would definitely recommend getting dinner if you are parked near

The Mexican food was awesome and the menu is huge! We had enchiladas Oklahoma, enchiladas especial and Mexican dinner. All of it was wonderful, including the guac and we'll definitely be back. BOB (big 'ol' beer) was served cold, dirty (lime and salty rim) and was great. Friendly, fast service and the place was packed with people who clearly were locals and all stared at us because we weren't. :)

Came in for lunch today. Ordered the Emily special beef and WOW. The staff was great and the food was even better. Highly recommend.

We love El Jarocho. The staff is great, the service is great, and the food is great. What more could you expect from a local Mexican spot! The tacos El Pastor and killer!!!
