76 Years in Tulsa

El Rancho Grande opened in Tulsa in 1950 and hasn't left. Here's how a neighborhood cantina became a piece of the city itself.

Had lunch this week and was delicious as always. El Rancho Grande is a Tulsa staple. I was seated immediately and brought fresh chips, salsa, and iced tea. Taco salad was fresh and delicious. Service was exceptional. Highly recommend for a historic stop on Route 66!

My favorite Mexican food around! Always tasty and their chips and salsa are very good too! I highly recommend the nighthawk. Delicious every time!

These guys are great! Happy Hour is awesome and all day Friday/Saturday 1/2 price draft beer is the bomb!!! The margaritas are awesome. The service is always great, and all the servers and bartenders are always on point!

Lorie A.

This place is so good! The food is wonderful! My personal yardstick for the food at a Mexican restaurant is the guacamole and they prepare the best. The upstairs cantina is beautiful and a fun place to hang, eat delicious food, have a beer, margarita or a specialty drink. You have to experience El Rancho Grande!

Started off with chile con queso to go with our chips, as well as the PB&J Jalapeños. Cheese was good, but the stuffed jalapeños were unique. Stuffed with peanut butter and deep fried, then served with house made pepper jelly. I’ve never seen anything like them before. Hubs got the El Rancho Grande dinner, which was like a sampler and I got the camarones al mojo de ajo. Mine was great- not too crazy with the garlic. Would recommend this place!
