View Full Version : Favorite Local Places to eat?
dankrutka 02-01-2011, 03:57 PM Just curious what your favorite local places to eat are? Here is an ever evolving top 10 list to get the discussion started:
1. Pepe Delgado's - traditional Mexican (Norman)
2. Tarahumara's - TexMex (Norman)
3. Republic Gastropub - Bar food, burgers (OKC)
4. Hideaway Pizza (several locations)
5. Victoria's - Italian (Norman)
6. Iron Starr - BBQ (OKC)
7. Park Harvey Sushi (Downtown OKC)
8. Big Truck Tacos - TexMex (OKC)
9. Iguana - TexMex (OKC)
10. Cheever's - Southwestern (OKC)
I lived in Norman for 8 years, Edmond for 1 year, and I have lived in Midtown OKC for the last 6 months. One thing that I have noticed is that a lot of my favorite OKC places are recently opened businesses... What did the OKC food scene look like 15 years ago?!?
Thoughts?

Something we agree on, love the blackened salmon and the strawberrys and spinach salad.
