I have strong personal attachment to the building because I grew up just to the west and it was a Braum's back in the day, and the greatest treat in the world was the rare occasion where we got to go and get a hot fudge sundae.
and right next door to Booton's Nursery. . a great plant place!!

It's in our regular rotation. It's reliably good and so charming and homey. It's like dining in someone's home.
I visit 2 of their locations regularly, and find the food very consistent between the two. Looking forward to the Hefner and May location, since it will be even closer to my house.
Casa Perico NW 63rd west of Meridian is my favorite Tex-Mex in OKC. We've been known to take-out 2 days in a row. What makes it special are the vegetarian options and wide variety of side dishes, not just rice & refried beans. Don't get me wrong, the rice and beans are fine, but if I get double sauteed vegetables instead of r&b this guarantees a second meal the following day.

You sold me on charming and homey. Those really are the best types of places. Not fancy but they just hit the right spot.
Hoping they can make the May location work. It has been quite the restaurant black hole(I still miss Taco Cabana...)

Make sure and try the papas once, if you haven't. Delicious fried potatoes.

The papas rancheras and the Mexican corn every time with my meals.

Favorite restaurant? Far from it, however it's our favorite Okie-Tex-Mex in the metro. They offer consistently good service. I love their carne asida dish, their papas, and their salsa; fajita's are super good and very generous portions. I'm especially in love with their refried beans. We've been concerned with the location there on 122nd and Penn as it's literally been crumbling apart. We've assumed the landlord doesn't want them there because they've had one of those portable AC machines blowing in there for almost a year it seems. I'm assuming with it being so close they're leaving that shopping center for the new May location, do we know?

We don't know for sure but that almost has to be the case.
Casa Perico has another location in downtown Yukon.
