Que Gusto

There's a plethora of latin-American restaurants in Tulsa. However, Que Gusto may be the cutest one of them all. This eatery has been on my list for quite a while as it's location is hard to miss and the buzz seems to be never ending. I met up with a special friend for lunch on February 8, 2024.After a quick jolt from my downtown job, I arrived around 12:15pm on a Thursday. I've often passed the place and noticed their outdoor/sidewalk seating. I got in and I was surprised to see how quaint the inside space was. There were four, maybe five tables in total with enough room to sit 10-12 people maximum. There were about 3-4 people there (which you notice considering the square footage) However, I don't need much space to operate. The large overhanging menu jumps right out and the cashier is unavoidable. I ordered the Arroz Con Pollo with a House-Made Juice (Mango & Passion Fruit). The House-Made Juice is worth the price! It's tangy and potent. Plus, the drinks are self-serve! The food didn't take long and it was quite fulfilling. The rice was soft and the vegetables were light. The chicken was pretty standard but the plantains were wonderful! They had a glaze that shined on the crispy outer-layer while the inside was soft and sweet. The serving size wasn't as hearty but it packs a delicious punch.I was primarily there to chat with my friend but was surprised at how comfortable I found myself. Though the inside space isn't abundant, the theme of the eatery seems to be quality over quantity. I spent about $20 but I still took food home and I got a refill on the juice. Overall, I think Que Gusto is an excellent option for a weekday quick lunch or weekend meetup on a beautiful day. I can't wait to go back!

Ok on this visit I took a few pics. Delicious as expected. Beef empanada on point perfection, a fresh tasty salad & the sweetest plantains. The service was wonderful and fast. Establishment was very clean and well stocked with foods and drinks.

This location has street parking only. The location is small with maybe 5-6 tables inside and an outside covered patio. I love that there was a gluten free option but be prepared to wait 17 minutes for it come out (they will tell you when you order). The yucca fries with the chipotle mayo were so good. The gluten free is thick like a pie but still good. I wish there was a no cheese option. It was quick to order even though there wasn't a formal line and people were checking in who had ordered so it was a little confusing to determine who had ordered and who needed to order.

Que Gusto is a lovely little Ecuadorian spot that serves homemade empanadas and warm plates along with their fresh arepas. I got arroz con pollo and an arepa since it was my first time trying this place out. The girl working the register was super sweet & patient with me while suggesting what to add to the arepa (mayo chicken & avocado) and food was served rather quickly. I have been telling some friends about this place in hopes they will get to enjoy a delicious plate like I did. Also, this is just a block or two away from Guthrie Green which is nice if you need a filling small bite or plate nearby. Ps. I may be biased because I could eat plátano every day of my life - I love it that much lol.

Stopped in here for a quick bite and it was so nice! It's a smallish space but there is plenty of outdoor seating. You order from the counter and they bring to your table. The yucca fries are delicious and there are several sauces to pick from. Definitely want to come back to try the empanadas.

Ordered the vegan empanada and dulce de leches cookie. The preparation time was way too long, considering only one item needed to be cooked. Despite the wait, the empanada was excellent. I didn't even need to use the accompanying sauce.The dulce de leches cookie was just okay.I would definitely return for the empanadas and preorder over the phone for pickup.

This is such a cute spot in the heart of Tulsa's Greenwood district. Wonderful spot for breakfast, lunch, or dinner if you're looking for Latin delights! Empanadas - check. Tres leches - check. The space was clean and employees had a smile. Sorry folks, that really is the baseline. I have no interest in going to a place that's dirty and the employees are unfriendly.

Que Gusto is cute and delicious! I got the Gluten Free Chicken Empanadas and the Yucca fries! It was soo good! The green sauce is amazing! My friend got the regular beef empanada. I wasn't a huge fan but it wasnt bad at all. I'd definitely go here again! Highly recommend! It is a little small inside so it's probably more ideal for picking up your orders to go but we were able to sit down and enjoy our food and 2-3 others were sitting inside eating as well.It's a delicious hidden gem! Excited to try the other items!

We ordered our food to go and called our order in. Glad we did- the wait time was 20 minutes. My friend had been in the week before and had ordered the vegan empanadas and said they were amazing. Also said we couldn't miss the fries. She said when she went last time she asked a lot of questions and they were very helpful and answered all her questions and verified everything would be vegan. The vegan breakfast empanadas come with vegan cheese, spinach, organic tofu and organic soy chorizo. We both said we wished it had more filling. Like more of the spinach- we both felt it was salty- we never add salt to our food, so maybe this was just the chorizo that came across as salty. We really liked the yucca fries and ate most of them on the drive home. The empanada was for brunch the next day. We didn't eat a lot of the shell- feeling that it was a lot of breading. Many may like that. The restaurant was cute when I ran in to get the takeaway order. They a a frequent diner program if you add your phone number. I already had a text coupon for my next dinning experience before I even made it to the car

The empanadas are good, but the wait was tremendous and there is limited seating inside, but they do have outdoor patio seating. This is next to Lone Wolf. But - it's the only game in town to get your fix, so I will wait. It's nice that they have vegan filled empanadas. They are relatively big vs a small empanada app. Think hand pie sizes and Midwest portions. I think I'll go back for some of the other side dishes.Also - Friday/Saturday = ceviche days but it's a little pricey around $20.
