Does OKC currently have any restaurants with a crazy view? I know that Vast at Devon Tower will, but it won't be open for a while.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

What ever happen with the plans to reopen the restaurant at the top of Founders Tower?

I've never been that impressed by the food there, although the view is great.

Its also a great place to go if you ever wanted to time travel to 1977.

dmoor82, those are some really nice shots. But what's with the brown coloration? Was there a dust storm that day?

I particularly like the Devon pic. Not only is it a good angle, but the contrast with the old Hotel Black is amazing. That hotel was probably considered quite a tall building when it was put up -- now it's just a tiny midget next to the Devon Tower.

What about the Beacon Club in Oklahoma Tower?


And I have no idea what happened to the restaurant planned for the top of Founders Tower. IIRC, it was to be run by the Deep Fork Group.

Actually, they should have a soft opening in just a few weeks, I believe starting Oct. 1.

Another few other ideas:


The OKC Art Mueseum Cafe will cater an event on their rooftop deck. Stunning views!

Flint at the Colcord is ground level but with great views of Devon Tower and the Myriad Gardens.


The deck above Rawhide; can have outside catering.

Same for the new rooftop deck at The Packard, they are calling 10 Roof:

Well in that case, Nonnas also has a 2nd story patio seating.

So does it cost, like $100 a year to be in "The Petroleum Club"?
Or is the "Petroleum Club" one of those fake "Private Clubs" from back in the 50's---70's.
And is it just me . . . Or is the interior of The Edmond Version of The Petroleum Club (in the building formerly known as The Greystone) like something out of The Garish Needlepoint School on PBS?

(i still miss Nick's at The Top . . . (sob) . . . =)

The view from Gabriella's (the second Gabriella's not the real Peter Seay Gabriella's over off Western) formerly known as "The Oklahoma County Line BBQ" is wonderful. I wonder why the food at that location never seems to rise to the level of the view.

(P.S. Ref. Post #13: Nice deck. I can't believe they didn't spring for "hidden fastener clips" instead of unsightly screws. =)
