If you know what to order, Alvarado's can be very good. I had a Chile Relleno that was very good, and was made with excellent white cheese.

The Gorditas are OK, but a definite disappointment if you've ever had the ones in El Paso.

I thought the Enchiladas were downright bad.

Refried beans are horrible, but the charro beans are very good.

The hot salsa, which is not served unless you request it, is excellent (maybe the best in the OKC area). The regular salsa and the complimentary queso are mediocre.

Thus this restaurant can be a very good experience if you happen to order the right thing, but I suspect it can be an extremely disappointing experience if you don't.
