| The first dip of a chip reveals the unique flavors that 1492 brings to Oklahoma City: it begins with the fresh ingredients, followed by the tang of lime and then some heat. Though the menu offers Tex-Mex favorites for those who enjoy predictability, it also holds plenty of creative specials and appetizers. The sweet-hot dipping sauce made of an intriguing combination of mango and habanero that accompanies lightly battered coconut shrimp keeps you coming back for more. 1492 Queso is served over beef and refried beans with sour cream and guacamole, an appetizer generous enough to share. A combination of pineapple, lime and other ingredients marinate a pork special for 24 hours before it is stuffed with guava and prunes and roasted; fried plantains and coconut rice with black beans finish the plate. Lighter fare includes fish tacos in corn tortillas served up with fried yucca. The drinks list focuses on South American specialties like Argentinean and Brazilian wines along with the signature mojitos and margaritas. The Chavez brothers, descendants of a Dallas restaurant heritage, operate 1492. They’ve created a buzzing, vibrant atmosphere that encourages lively conversation. |
