Authentic Mexican On Route 66

By Otto Harrison

The city of Tulsa may be filled with Mexican restaurants throughout the city, but Tacos Don Francisco stands out not just because of the authentic taste, but also because of the location.

Tacos Don Francisco is located on the historic Route 66. It’s unique from others because of its hole-in-the-wall feel and the “gracias” you receive after placing an order. It’s also one of Tulsa’s few places to grab a late night meal, staying open until 4:00 a.m. on the weekends, which is convenient for all the University of Tulsa students a short mile away.

 

When I visited, I ordered the wet burrito, which was suggested to me by one of the workers. Tacos Don Francisco has been voted one of Tulsa’s best ten-dollar eateries in the past, according to one of the few English posters they have framed on the wall.

There was very little English to be heard at all when I stopped by in fact, and that’s partly why Tacos Don Francisco is set apart from the others in Tulsa. When I left it felt like I had visited Guadalajara
 
Tacos Don Francisco is located at 4008 E. 11^th St, Tulsa OK 74112.
