La Esquina

I will not be able to sample more on of what this charming taqueria has to offer. We are here on travel and I had a craving for menudo. Wifey and I found La Esquina via Yelp and they serve menudo everyday. Target acquired ! Service was quick and the menudo was hot full of maiz and tripe. It was a bit more picoso (spicy) than we are used to but definitely enjoyable. Based on the many workers coming in for breakfast I can tell this food has some comfort appeal.

This place had a variety of my favorite snacks! I’ve been searching for the chiccaron and home made tamales for a while. It’s 10am and I’m in heaven! Off to start the day with my 1/2 dozen pork tamales. Service was great my only gripe would be is it was super hot inside from all the food cooking.

The food was freaking amazing. So flavorful so spicy. I wasn’t even planning on eating it there but decided I couldn’t wait until I get home.

I ordered food for my after my daughters funeral service was done. The frijokes charros, red rice , carne picada , and azados rojo was so salty all my guest were complaining we couldn't eat it- I paid over $400 I brought back the food and spoke to a gentleman and told him to fix the food or refund me my money. He didn't want to said I couldn't get anything because the food had been picked of course it was but everyone threw it out!!!! Because everything was salty if you buy from make sure you taste your food before you leave or don't buy from here!!!

We go for the Barbacoa, and it always tastes AMAZING! The store/restaurant is easy to find as it's not far off from I44.

Basically you can buy meat by the pound starting at half a pound with a couple different choices to pick from. This is half a pound of barbacoa which is high quality and closest to authentic as possible. Comes with about 5 tortillas, onion and cilantro, and one salsa for right under 10 bucks. If you'd bring your own low carb tortillas you can easily make this meal keto low carb.

Tamales were so dry no flavor the rajas con queso taste like vinegar Food use to be so yummy

You will not find better Barbacoa anywhere in Oklahoma City and the tamales are delicious.

My family and I love coming here there food is very good recommend there tacos. Service is good .

Sketchy looking building in a part of town I had never been to before today...But, the tacos and tamales here are authentic and delicious. Carnitas cooked right, tender with crispy edges, not too wet or greasy, just flavorful and plentiful. Lengua also cooked perfectly. Both were especially good with their red salsa, a fairly mild version spice-wise but it adds a punch of flavor. The green salsa they gave me was a coagulated mess and unusable. Tacos are on a single tortilla, an inch larger than typical size. Cost $1.90 for the typical meats, $2.09 for lengua and tripas. I did have to pull a browning, discolored sprig of cilantro off of one of my tacos, which was a first for me. I also had a pork tamale, in a red sauce with lots of shredded pork, also delicious. They also sell many baked goods which I have yet to try. Get beyond the busy street and tiny parking lot, and inside you'll find a quiet little Mexican imports market with very friendly workers. My order was takeout, and while I saw other adjacent rooms I couldn't see whether they had any dining tables. They sure had a steady stream of regular customers also there picking up takeout diners. Even with the questionable cilantro and salva verde, flavors were enough to easily reach 4 stars. It's a great little-known authentic Mexican option if you ever find yourself in this part of town.

Tamales are excellent, very authentic. The carnitas are great as well. Only downside I've found are the pan dulces which are almost always stale.

The baked goods here can be a little stale, as they tend to sit a bit too long. The tamales are outstandingly good, though, as are all the other hot dishes I've had here. Difficult parking. (This is, after all, a true corner store.) Cash only. No cards.

Barbacoa and menudo are on point! Been going 10+ years and they don't disappoint. In my opinion the barbacoa is the best in okc

very dirty place didn't realize it until I sat down and seen cockroaches running everywhere threw away my food and left

This is where my family gets our tamales for our annual Christmas Eve dinners. We've been coming here for 6+ years (after our previous tamale hookup fell through!) These are some of our favorite tamales ever!

Good food with friendly people working there. The place looks like a 7-11 type corner store. When you walk in, there's a large selection of baked sweets to your left. Everything from chocolate cake to Mexican pastries. Some of the stuff I have no idea what it is, but everything looks great. There are a lot of choices when you place your order. The standard fare...tacos, burritos, tortas. They also have tamales, but I would not recommend them. The ones I got were super dry. Plenty of meat choices. Asada, pastor, lengua, tripas... All the makings for some good tacos. There's also a condiment bar in the back where you can get your jalapeños and salsa. The lady working the counter helped me navigate all the choices, and I walked out full and satisfied.

Authentic as it gets. Great barbacoa tacos. My coworker got the lunch plate, tried the stews as well, pretty good. Seems like they're cash only, I was prepared for that.
