Escape to Baja Jack’s Burrito Shack
Baja Jack's
Baja Jack’s is one of the many new restaurants that has popped up in Owasso in the past couple years and by the look of the lunch crowd, they’re not struggling!
And it’s no wonder, with their colorful island atmosphere, unique build-your-own-burrito setup, and sizable salsa bar, a trip to Baja Jack’s makes for a fun & festive meal!

The bright atmosphere is mirrored by the friendly faces at Baja Jack’s, including the owners who are usually scrambling to keep the lunch crowds happy.

The burritos may be their most popular item, but they also offer a variety of other tasty dishes including quesadillas, tacos, and rellenos, empanadas, as well as ceviche and fresh guacamole appetizers.

I got a carne asada empanada, made in the style of taco stand soft tacos, and was pleased with the well-seasoned, tender beef with freshly grilled onions and peppers encased in the pleasantly thin tortilla. They describe these as being like authentic taco stand tacos, without having to stand, and while no one has matched the quality of the Tulsa taco stands I’ve been to, it was fairly close to the real deal.

My friends opted for the build your own burritos, and it’s amazing how different they turned out! One ended up being a thick & hearty meal, while the other ended up being a fresh yet creamy salad. Both were very happy!

And One Very Different Burrito!
I loved that they offered a free salsa bar; I’d have to say that their Cilantro Lime was my favorite – I always love this fantastically fresh food combination and give kudos to them just for offering this!

We topped off our lunch with a light & fluffy “Strawberries & Cream” dessert – quite the delight!
