Twisted Taco

Don’t know why it took us so long to try the Twisted Taco. Absolutely different type of establishment and incredible tacos. They have a large variety to choose from. Our group decided to order a couple of tacos each and try several. Note: I like that you can order the tacos individually but they also have full dinners.
Everyone in our group loved their tacos. Each is its own creation. Very flavorable and different. And just two tacos filled me up! I personally had the Argentina and Cheeseburger and enjoyed them both.
I hear they’re known for their margaritas, which looked fabulous by the way, but our group enjoys craft beer and were happy they had a good selection.
If you’re looking for someplace out of the ordinary, food with great flavor, friendly service, and great casual atmosphere this is it. :)

Love the tacos. We have tried a really tastey Greek taco and it was delicious! Our favorite is the boom boom shrimp taco. Really fresh shrimp. You bite into it and the flavor is out of this world! There is a middle eastern taco and many many more to choose from. On Tuesdays, tacos are on special and that’s when we love to go. Whether you choose flour or corn tortillas, you’ll savor every bite. There’s lots more on the menu we haven’t explored, but try it we will. They have over 5 big screen tv’s and at night they offer pay per view UFC fights where you can reserve seats. Twisted taco was very very busy the night of the Rhonda Rowsey fight so we were glad we made reservations. They have a very nice bar and there is an enclosed patio you can rent for big parties, too. With really friendly and attentive staff, I highly recommend this restaurant. We go every week like clockwork. A must try eatery! ENJOY!

The soft tacos here are great. It’s my new favorite taco hangout with a good bar and nice staff as well. The fish tacos were especially good and I highly recommend this place.

I’ve given this place two tries just because the tacos are fairly good. But with the long waits 45 minutes both times and the price for the food. I’ll no longer be coming back here.

Twisted taco is pretty awesome in my book! Great food, good prices and they’ve got a huge variety of tequilas and a lot of other drinks! They have the best tacos around and some pretty awesome burritos! I love the atmosphere they play great music and the customer service is awesome!

We have been here 3 times now and every time just gets better! Staff are very friendly and attentive. Food is amazing! The queso is delicious but the salsa needs some work! The place is extremely clean. My kids love all the different crazy variations of tacos they can choose from. When you go in always check out the special on the board to save you some money!

Came in after finding this place on Unilocal!My first visit was about a month ago and did not go well, so this was my 2^nd attempt.
When they brought me my queso I though it was some kind of Mexican mustard, it was the wrong color and consistency to be what I would consider queso. The taste was non descript. Not even what my husband refers to as «football cheese» (you know the kind you get on nachos at high school football games) which would have been better. At least the chips were good, hot and crispy.
When they brought my tacos she asked me if I needed silverware. For tacos? I shouldn’t, but thanks. When I picked up my first taco (The Cuban, which I was very excited about because of the plantains) I understood. 90% of the contents fell out of the bottom of the two corn tortillas before I was able to take a bite. The pork was decent and the one plantain sliver I finally found under a large pile of black beans was delicious.
My second taco (The Greek) met the same fate as my first, but this time I was ready so I quickly turned it on its side and attempted to eat it like a sandwich. And failed. The Gyro meat was good, though the portion was small compared to the size of the taco, the tzatziki sauce tasted like plane yogurt.
I gave 2 stars because the tacos were only $ 2 (because it was Tuesday), which raised my 1 star to a two.
This place has potential, but I’ll give it a few more months to tweet before I’ll be back.

Everything was delicious, refried beans were a little bland but we will be coming here again to try other tacos

Great tacos. The food was great and the drinks well priced. We came on trivia night so it was a little loud but not so loud we were drowned out.

Food in Lawton is not so great, but this place isn’t too bad. If this was in Los Angeles this would be a 2 star for the food. Trivia night brings the ratings up!
FOOD:
Cuban taco (4 stars): I liked all the flavors in here.
Baja taco (3 stars): Fish is no bueno. Didn’t taste like anything.
The Mongo Salad (2 stars): Just don’t order a salad here.
Rice (4 stars)
TRIVIA NIGHT (4 stars)
A lot of fun! Took a while for people to answer though so the game took time. They did raffles in between games to make the time go buy faster.
ATMOSPHERE (4 stars)
One of the few places in Lawton we came back to. Clean with a laid back atmosphere. In a better area of Lawton. Nice bar area. Also an area with couches and a fireplace.
PARKING:
Shopping center lot.

A superior Los Tres Amigos with a legitimate bar and great happy hour drink prices. The Big Jake burrito is extremely filling and the Tacos look delicious. They have lots of TVs around for sports/​events too if you want to watch a fight or big game with friends.

We went there tonight. A taco place with country music playing. Mama cried. I cried too. Over the food. We tried the guacamole and it wasn’t very good. The quest had a layer of grease. The tacos? I had one with crab cakes. It was okay. The river runs red? I think that was the name of it. It was the «regular» taco. The hamburger meat if it really was meat was the same stuff in the queso. Sooo greasy. I couldn’t finish it.
It is set up like a sports bar. The people were very nice. But the food… go to Holy Chip instead. The food there is AWESOME and you won’t die from the grease.

I came down from KC to visit some friends and we had lunch here. The menu was a little confusing at first (I didn’t know you could mix and match tacos). You order at the counter, grab a spot, and they bring your food over. I opted for two soft shell pulled pork tacos with the black beans and rice platter. It was love at first bite. The pork was soft and the coleslaw on top made my tacos a juicy, runny, and beautiful mess. If it wasn’t faux pas, I straight up would have licked everything off my platter and taco rack. My bestie ordered a salad and it was even HUGE. Their margaritas are good as it went nicely with our food, and the bartender even made it a little stronger. Staff was very attentive and checked on us several times throughout our experience. This place was awesome!

The restaurant is set up so you order food to the left and they bring it to your table, or you sit at the bar and order food and drinks. Taco Tuesday’s have two dollar tacos with a wide selection. My top two: buffalo bill and the Cuban. Buffalo bill tastes like redhot wings. The Cuban is so soft and melts in your mouth with an added sweetness from the plantains. My least favorite was the black and bleu; the bleu cheese was too over powering. The greek tastes like your typical gyro, just in taco disguise.
Recommend the southwest chicken roll appetizer.
Thursday is awesome trivia night with prizes for winners and participants. Loads of fun!

I feel like I need to update my review after getting a to-​go order from The Twisted Taco. I got the three taco platter with the Boom Boom Shrimp, the Argentinian, and the Down Home. The down home shrimp was delicious and my favorite of the three. I would recommend it to anyone who likes shrimp tacos. My least favorite was the Argentinian, it was greasy. The rice has vastly improved. It tasted nice and it wasn’t a ball of crusty mush like last time. I got the refried beans this time and I wasn’t a fan. I definitely recommend the black beans over the refried beans.

So here’s the Twisted Taco review: Not bad but it was pricey, but I did get full. My 2 chicken tacos, side of tortillas, and a drink was about $ 12. My brother got queso, 3 tacos, and a drink and his was $ 19. So for those slow on math that’s $ 31 for 2 people. My bro didn’t like anything on his plate. I liked my stuff OK but wasn’t wowed by anything. The queso was good but really thick (which is better than too runny) but this was almost like chewing cheese slices. They botched my order (I was supposed to get black beans and crunchy shells) but I’m OK with pintos and soft. I’d probably go there if someone wanted to but probably not on my own. My bro will def not be back. It’s a serve yourself joint, as in get your own silverware, S&P, napkins, and drinks. I’m not a huge fan of that if I’m paying wait on me prices.

Twisted Taco… Hmm… How do I start… OK first time I went with a friend and had the taco salad. Really wasn’t too thrilled with it the taco shell wasn’t fully cooked and it was really chewy like eating dough. The rest of the taco salad was fine. So my family was jealous that I came here without them so we came back. This time I tried the 3 taco plate with black beans and rice. We also ordered the chips and salsa. I really tried to like the chips and salsa but some of the chips weren’t cooked enough at first I thought they were stale but my husband said no its still shiny and greasy and just wasn’t fully cooked. The salsa was OK but wasn’t my style. The black beans and rice wasn’t something I liked either. The tacos were one of the reasons why I gave this place a 3 star. The tacos weren’t bad but they aren’t something I would go back for either.
When my husband got his plate he ordered a buffalo bill which came with ranch sauce not salsa but when he received it he asked if they were sure this was his plate because none of the tacos had ranch on them. He pointed to one in particular which had salsa and asked if this was the Buffalo bill taco. Lady replied yes the ranch is on the bottom… Hmm… OK. When another server brought out my plate it was actually my husband’s it had the Buffalo bill on it. My husband asked the new server what the taco with the salsa was because it’s not the Buffalo bill. He replied the down under not the Buffalo bill… Now the funny part. My husband said you need to educate the other server what taco is what. Then pointed to the lady that brought out the first plate. The server said yeah we butt heads with her a lot but we can’t say anything because she is the owner, and does not know what the tacos are. The end of the comedy came talking to the the half of the owners and he also said that the ranch was on the bottom. There was no ranch on the bottom.
We also had a couple of margaritas the Oklahoma thunder and the original. They were OK but not anything special.
If you like different tacos you may or may not like this place but if you want truly a good taco I don’t really recommend this place.

My first impressions of this place are good. It’s new of course so it’s clean. A little small but, definitely has that Sports Bar fill too it after getting about 10′ in the door.
I agree with other reviewers that this is family friendly during the day and probably after dark it’s time to leave the kids home. Although it was rather quiet the night I was in and I wouldn’t have a problem bringing teens with me. I can see where it could easily get loud in here when the crowd is bigger.
I did a quick browse of the menu. Lots to choose from. I was looking for a taste to sample here. Will explore more of the menu on the next visit.
I went with a Two Taco Platter comprised of any Taco from the menu with Beans & Rice. I chose the ‘The Hills Run Red’ and ‘The Argentinian’. I opted for Refried Beans, over Black Beans, with the Rice. The Taco’s are offered Crunchy or Soft.
The ‘Hills’ Taco is their version of the standard Taco with ground beef. The twist was the Queso, which added a really nice kick to each bite. Very tasty. Definitely want to give that one another try. :-)
The ‘Argentinian’ is a grilled steak Taco with their Chimichurri sauce. It was tasty as well but, dripped a lot of oil. So be sure to hold a napkin under it. It comes without lettuce, so it’s a little lighter in appearance. I’m sure you can request lettuce though. It was good but, I’ll put it back in the rotation to try again after I try some others from the menu.
There are 18 Taco options on the menu: 4 Chicken, 2 Pork, 6 Beef, and 6 Seafood … although I don’t know if you can mix and change the meats between options? Some places are sticklers for «as is on the menu», don’t know if they are here?
The platter option comes with Beans and Rice. I’ve gotta say, this is the first time I have ever truly enjoyed Refried Beans. They were flavored just right with a wee kick to them. Or was it just me? I liked them for once, so that says something. :-) The rice was okay, nothing outstanding this time.
Overall, a good experience and I will go back to try more.

Let’s be honest. Twisted Taco is a sports bar. It is a family friendly space, but features a bar along the longest wall, only a few tables that seat more than two with any comfort, and more tv screens than the local Sears electronic aisles. I’d be happy enough to take the family here for lunch or for an early dinner, but as the night goes on, the bar patrons and the loud tvs will make the space a bit less welcoming.
And this is perfectly ok. How nice, honestly, to have a local bar be so much fun. This is not a dive. It is not a place to get yourself wasted while not attracting attention. This is a place to sit at the table with a friend, grab a few drinks and a tasty meal, and spend time with people who are all enjoying the moment together.
Tacos are sold a la carte, and cost under $ 4 each. Chips and salsa are $ 2, with queso or guacamole running $ 8 a piece. The menu also includes nachos and a few other appetizers, but the focus is definitely on the tacos. I did order the chips and salsa, and was pleased at the portions and at the value. Refillable chips and three types of salsa for two dollars mean I will order this again. The chips were thin, crispy, and salty, and it was difficult to stop eating them once I started.
I ordered three different tacos, and had to explain that I wanted them as a platter, even though they were out of rice and beans. The three taco platter is only $ 9.99, so ordering it that way saved me $ 1.50 over ordering the tacos separately. Three tacos plus a basket of chips was more than enough to satisfy my hunger, so I did not miss having the sides. I’ve now visited again and can say that the sides are nothing I need. They have nowhere near the flavor that the salsa imparts, and I’ll likely continue to skip them on future visits.
Order and pay at the counter, and then take your number to a table. The drinks are self serve, but I had waitstaff ask me if they could get me a refill when they had time between clearing tables and bringing food. I appreciated the offer, but was happy to stand for a moment. This is a casual dining experience, and it was nice to walk through the dining area and see how many different types of people were there.
Tips are not expected, but are appreciated. I asked the owner how tips were handled and was told that they are split. This is useful info, as my table was visited by every member of the waitstaff.
If you are interested in a diverse menu of fancy tacos, this place is definitely worth a visit. My meal included a roasted pork taco with plantains, a crab cake taco with remoulade, and a fish taco with red cabbage slaw. If you are looking for a simple taco or a more traditional menu, though, I would head to Taqueria Guadalajara. They also serve their street style tacos a la carte, but for a lower price and with no where near the options. No wrong choice, just a different atmosphere.

This tacos are really very very good. Great tasting tacos and great atmosphere and the bartender is awesome.
