No Tex, all Mex

Calaveras brings authentic flavor to Kendall Whittier district

Calaveras Mexican Grill has only been open a short while but has quickly gained popularity mostly by word of mouth alone. The same couple that gave Tulsa the cult favorite El Rio Verde has delivered another authentic Mexican concept at the corner of Admiral and Lewis (just North of Circle Cinema), 2326 E. Admiral Blvd.

“We felt very confident in opening Calaveras because people here have been trying authentic places,” said owner David Molina, who opened Calaveras with wife Angelica. “When we first started, there was nothing truly authentic [in Tulsa], not even a tortilla. But nowadays people like to try new things.”
