Los Garcia's Mexican Rest - Langley

I did something in Los Garcia 's that I have never done in a small-town Mexican restaurant. I was surprised that it was necessary. But, enough was enough. I needed the town of Langley as I work toward earning my Mexican food merit badge. There are only two Mexican restaurants in town. After reading the reviews they both seem a little sketchy. Since the reviews and ratings of each restaurant were so similar, I figured the only logical way to decide, was to evaluate the restaurants based on the reviewers ' pictures. Los Garcia 's seemed to be a little grungier and more worn. Indisputable qualities that indicate an authentic Mexican restaurant. Los Garcia 's was the choice and a good choice it was. A very friendly, older Hispanic couple own the business. They have been folding burritos and slapping refried beans on customers ' plates for over 16 years. The decaying little building occupies a wedge-shaped corner lot, between Main and Cherokee Ave., just east of First St. The restaurant is clean, nicely decorated, but shows its age from years of wear. It is a typical Oklahoma small town Mexican restaurant that serves a more traditional lightly seasoned style of Mexican food. My wife had the 8. Chili Verde Burrito and I had the 18. Poblano Chimichanga. Both large plates of food, check the pictures. The pork in the burrito was tasty, but a little tough. Not gristly, just not tender. My meal was a big poblano filled with strips of seasoned steak and cheese, rolled in a flour tortilla then fried to a crisp texture. A different way to prepare a relleno. I liked it. Good beans and rice. The cold front had reached Oklahoma. It was 68 in Langley this afternoon. Inside the restaurant the air conditioners were set to 65 degrees. They were performing well. It was cold enough to make your burrito shrink up. I have never had to ask at any Oklahoma Mexican restaurant, "could you please turn the AC off? The owner did, making the dining experience much more enjoyable. Los Garcia 's may be the better choice of the two Mexican restaurants in Langley.
