The service was great, we were greeted and seated promptly. Food was good, but the beans and rice were lacking a bit of flavor. The guacamole was decent, seemed like there was more tomato and onions than avocado. 🥑 The horchatas are huge, this was probably the first time I didn’t finish my drink. 😆 Overall, it was good, not great. I still haven’t found really good Mexican food in OKC, but this place would rank at the top of my lists."

Some dishes are definitely better than others but the portion sizes, even on the lunch, are always enough. Prices are good. Staff friendly."

The environment are laid back, relaxed, and a authentic Mexican fiesta style of energy. I recommend you give them a try. Local business, friendly team, authentic Mexican food, queso, salsa, etc. 5 stars for fajitas. The salsa & queso are authentic Mexican style. The salsa and queso are authentic style. This means fresh and homemade daily. Queso is thinner than the type served in chain owned restaurants. This means it is prepared daily using the Lazy Donkey's own recipe. I admit I like the thicker, Tex-Mex style Queso like "On the Border". My wife however prefers the thinner, authentic Mexican style queso & loved the Lazy Donkey."
