Thread: Revolucion

  1. #1

    Classen Revolucion

    Rachel Cope and the 84 Hospitality group is planning a summer opening for Revolucion, a Mexcian themed restaurant and bar at Classen and NW 6th.


    The group also recently announced Goro Ramen + Izakaya for the Plaza District.

    Cope calls their approach “social dining”, with all concepts combining a twist on more traditional food combined with a lively bar scene where patrons are encouraged to hang out and socialize. The formula has been wildly successful at 84's first venture, Empire Slice House.

    Revolucion with be a “revolution against Tex-Mex” and feature fresh takes on simple tacos and other items typically found in taquerias, combined with unique margaritas and a full bar.

    Featured prominently will be a large patio and in the interior space will open to it through a NanaWall folding door system that will allow the two areas to flow together.

    The menu will feature tacos, tortas and a large variety of appetizers served at lunch, dinner and late night with special menus for Saturday and Sunday brunch.


    The large bar will be located near the moving doors to further bridge the indoor and outdoor.

    Revolucion will join the soon-to-open Sunnyside Diner in the 916 NW 6th Street project. The development is a renovation of an old tire shop and the exterior is largely complete, including crushed granite parking areas.


    The large patio structure will be added to the west and be certain to bring life to lower Classen Boulevard, which is seeing a sudden resurgence along with west Downtown. Projects in the area include the 21c Museum Hotel, the Residences at 21c, the Jones Assembly, Sunshine Cleaners and the recently opened FlashBack RetroPub.

    How awesome will this be??

    Especially since it is literally two blocks from my place.

    That means you're buying all of us on here a round of tacos when they open, right?

    But seriously, this is really, really cool. I don't doubt it will be a smash hit. Interesting that East Bricktown and West Downtown are really surging now.

    Very excited! Really interested to compare the vibe here with the new concept going in at the old tire shop near Bleu Garten.

    That looks awesome. I love how patios have been such a big emphasis on almost every new restaurant that's opened in the past 2 years.

    Yes, now three proposed Mexican-themed restaurants with large patios:

    - Revolucion
    - Barrios in the Swanson's Tire development
    - Frida in the Via Paseo development

    This has been a hole in the OKC dining scene for a while, and three great restaurant groups have all realized it at the same time.

    No.

    Rachel did a consulting job at Iguana that ended last summer.

    Any update on this? I haven't heard of any news on this for awhile.

    Yes, was in there just last week.

    They are moving along in construction. Still to go in is the glass folding wall on the west side and a revised patio plan.

    It's super cool space and will have a large square bar more or less in the middle, but with those open doors, the indoors and outdoors should be pretty unified and create a cool setting.

    I would guess they are about 6-8 weeks from opening.

    That's got to be tons of fun putting together a menu and trying out different dishes.
