Food is the best around and staff are quick and on top of things. If you're looking for authentic Tex Mex it's worth it.

The service was amazing! They are so quick and very nice and friendly! The enchilada was yummy only thing was the tortillas got hard

Best Mexican food since California. Great, fast service! Very busy atmosphere with quick turnover. My husband had the fajitas with: chicken, steak, pork, AND shrimp. I had the big boy plate with the chile relleno, bistek, and Mexican asada taco. The rice and beans were fantastic! The chips were on the table before we were sat, AND they were HOT and fresh. The salsa was the best we've had in a long time- not spicy, good for everyone. The swirl margarita was very tasty and hit harder than expected. Dario was our server and he was very professional and fast. He even boxed our leftovers and brought our desert to go. Thank God we found Taramuhara's. It will be our New Mexican home.

From the moment we decided to visit Tarahumara's Mexican Cafe and Cantina, we knew we were in for something special. The buzz about this place--its reputation for being busy and yet absolutely worth the wait--set the tone for our journey. My mom, dad, and I made the drive, prepared for a crowd and a potential wait to be seated, especially since we arrived right at noon on a bustling Saturday. To our surprise, we were seated immediately, despite the restaurant being packed. The energy inside was electric. We watched as the staff moved with precision and speed--tables were cleared and reset in less than ten seconds. It was mesmerizing, a kind of choreography that promised this would be no ordinary dining experience. Once seated, things only got better. We placed our order: a massive plate of fajitas for my mom and me, and enchiladas for my dad. The chips and queso came out first, and they were a delight. The queso was rich and creamy, and as I enjoyed it with the chips, something magical happened--before I even realized I'd finished the first dip, another one appeared, unprompted. The service was seamless, intuitive, and attentive without being overbearing. Then came the food. Within five minutes of ordering, steaming plates were set before us. My dad's enchiladas were piping hot, and he declared them some of the best he'd ever had. The fajitas, though, were the star. The chicken was seasoned with a spice we couldn't quite place--a unique, flavorful touch that wasn't too spicy, even for my mom, who's sensitive to heat. We savored every bite, pairing the sizzling fajitas with the chips and queso, marveling at the balance of flavors. The drinks were another highlight--huge, refreshing, and constantly refilled without a word. And throughout it all, our waiter knew exactly when to check in and when to let us enjoy our conversation, a level of service that's hard to find. By the time we finished, it was clear: this wasn't just a great meal. This was the meal. Better than Ted's, better than any Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. Tarahumara's delivered on every level--speed, flavor, service, and atmosphere. Walking out, I couldn't help but feel like we'd discovered something extraordinary, a place that sets the bar impossibly high for all others. Tarahumara's isn't just a restaurant; it's an experience, one I'll be telling everyone I know about. If you haven't been yet, go. You won't just enjoy it--you'll remember it.

My favorite Mexican food in ALL of Oklahoma! You will not regret stopping by this place. I've eaten here since I was in college and the consistency has never changed. The owner is always around working and making sure things run smoothly. They have the best food in Norman. I always order the chicken enchiladas, guacamole salad, beef taco, shrimp cocktail, or steak. It's always busy but it's not loud inside. It's perfect to bring the family!

Excellent Mexican food! Some of the fastest survive you'll have at any restaurant. Freaky fast!

We come to eat here at least once a month. One of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Oklahoma. The manager is always friendly.

We enjoyed our visit with friends. The food was very good with lots of variety and very reasonable prices. The service was amazingly fast and the food was fresh and hot! The restaurant was clean and comfortable.
