Towards the tail end of 2023, I blew my wad and per diem on the most upscale'iest restaurants Oklahoma City has to offer, from old classics like Jamil's to up-and-comers like Sedalia’s Oyster + Seafood.
As a Catholic act of total contrition, I figured I'd start the year on a frugal note and hit up some of the more affordable culinary treasures in the Oklahoma City (and beyond) restaurant scene.
Aye mios dios, I started this adventure with one of the mejor taquerias in town, Los Tacos de la May, 4540 S. May Ave.
Not to be confused with the other Los Tacos, the eponymous eatery has a simple warming atmosphere that kills the brutally cold temperatures outside.
The restaurant has a variety of bold flavors on its menu, including a startling share of off-the-beaten-path selections, namely the wiener-heavy Salchiapas (cash $8.99, credit $9.35).
