South-of-the-border specialties come served in very inviting surroundings.
Restaurant Reviews Doug Hill
Ricky’s Cafe is an impressive,
freestanding Spanish colonial-style building in a bustling strip mall.
It’s maroon and pink outside with a brick-colored tile roof. Although
named “cafe,” Ricky’s is closer to being a fancy restaurant than a snack
bar or coffee shop.
Restaurant Reviews Ryan Querbach
In a city filled to the brim with Tex- Mex joints and taco trucks,
Diego’s trumps all with its authenticity, freshness and cleanliness.
Good food and fun in an informal restaurant on OU’s south research campus.
Restaurant Reviews Doug Hill
First, let’s get one thing straight: Cows do not fly. They don’t
normally anyway, unless there’s an aircraft, high explosives or
wind-assist from Mother Nature. The Flying Cow Cafe serves the
impressive National Weather Center complex on the University of Oklahoma
campus immediately southeast of the Lloyd Noble Center. It’s named for a
memorable scene in the 1996 movie “Twister.”
Steady clientele fill the unassuming neighborhood Hobby’s Hoagies for Philly cheesesteaks and pizza packed with flavor.
Restaurant Reviews Carol Smaglinski
Customers, with real respect, stand in front of the open kitchen in
Hobby’s Hoagies in Edmond. They watch the juggling act going on before
them as the crew pumps out pizza, Reubens, hoagies and justifiably
famous Philadelphia cheesesteaks. They even make their own bread.
Find this out-of-the-way Norman Thai spot for a lunch buffet or dinner.
Restaurant Reviews Ryan Querbach
There are plenty of Thai food options in the metro. Some are no doubt
better than others, but in Norman, one especially stands out. Thai
Kumkoon, although relatively hidden in its hard-to-notice location,
stands tall as a delicious option for authentic Thai food.
It’s new digs for Louie’s in Nichols Hills, and the impressive place runs like the proverbial well-oiled machine.

friends of mine when we try to come to a decision on where to eat.
Chelino’s creates a homey atmosphere for hearty Mexican fare.
Restaurant Reviews Carol Smaglinski
Soaking wet (What, was that rain?), we opened the door of the Chelino’s
on 50th near MacArthur and were delighted to see the colorful, bright orange interior
transporting us right to the heart of Mexico. Who knew Mexico was this
close?
Restaurant Reviews Joshua Boydston
For metro residents looking for the homey nature of the suburbs with the
excitement of city life, there are few districts more suitable than the
Deep Deuce neighborhood, which has been in the midst of a renaissance.
Traditional Thai and Italian specialties intermingle in one restaurant.
Restaurant Reviews Doug Hill

Restaurant brings the cuisines of both countries together in one room.
With an international presence, Golden Phoenix is an authentic Asian restaurant with no reservations.

Travel down Classen Boulevard toward downtown Oklahoma City, and it
would be difficult to miss the Golden Phoenix, where people sink their
teeth into roasted, sautéed, barbecued or glazed duck.
In the Raw goes for big style in Bricktown. Luckily, it has a sushi menu to back it up.
Restaurant Reviews Joshua Boydston
There’s a lot of stock put into
image with sushi joint In the Raw. From the highly marketable and
perfectly suited name, to the refined-but-fun interior and the elegantly
simple sashimi, it’s an attractive, stylish place.
Swadley’s serves top-notch barbecue in a chuck wagon-themed dining room.
Restaurant Reviews Doug Hill
Swadley’s Bar-B-Q’s original theme song plays when you open swadleys.com. Complete with manly man vocals, mustang snorting and spaghetti
Western whistling, the lyrics in part tout their catering: “If there’s a
crowd you need to please / We’ll grab our meat and haul our buns.”
