The chips were perfect - never had better. Good for someone missing his momma's cooking. Wholesome food and good portions. However, restaurant food should be more special than momma's (sorry, mom). The salsa was average. The taco meat was hardly seasoned. The beans didn't taste like a Mexican restaurant but like beans you would just cook up. The sopapillas were served with the meal instead of hot for desert. I'm sure there's much more to experience in New Mexico restaurants but we were traveling through and stopped at Padilla's based on reviews and on convenience of I-25/I-40 intersection. If you're traveling through Tulsa go to Senor Tequila's on 71st Street a few blocks east of Sheridan. It's fresh, it's delicious. Ask for the picosa salsa and put it on your tacos. WOW! Feel those little sweat beads form below your eyes.
