La Reina de los Tacos
La Reina doesn’t overcomplicate it; it just serves classic, cooked-to-order Mexican food made from fresh ingredients. Start with the fan-favorite al pastor tacos and work your way around the menu, but make sure to end your meal with the sopapillas.

Taco Villa
Everyone knows that to raise a taco, it takes a villa. At least, that’s the belief of Taco Villa, with three certified chefs bringing hand-made tortillas and simple ingredients to Norman for authentic Mexican food. Order street tacos or beef quesabirria that’ll transport you directly to Mexico.
Velvet Taco
Have late night cravings for authentic Mexican at reasonable prices? Velvet Taco gets it. Pay this funky taco spot a visit to try international flavors, slow-roasted chicken and margaritas. Customers can’t get enough of the customizable Velvet Bowls, with your choice of rice or napa slaw as a base.
