Steak the Experience

[Mississippi Blues]

Berating their customer's on the reviews didn't help. Their mashed potatoes looked like something from a box.

Yeah, swift failure couldn’t have happened to a more deserving group.

I was reminded by a friend someone in the Village facebook group said it was a Mr. Gatti's coming to that spot. Brent Swadley is the franchise owner.

The Mr. Gatti's website shows 5 locations planned for the OKC area, but no specific sites.

Yeah, like I said, Facebook is the source so who knows?

There was no building permit posted (odd) but as you can see, the inside has been completely gutted:

I'm aware. I'm talking about not having a building permit posted at the work site, which is required regardless of the municipality.

gotcha... thought you meant posted on the okc permit site. i could see removing the drop ceiling and interior fixtures without a permit, but i wouldn't think you could cut and remove the concrete without one.

I miss Luby's Cafeteria.

[emounger]

I guess it's official now.

Anyone know if this chain's any good? I'd love to have another good pizza place close.

i'm pretty sure the current iteration of mr. gatti's is a 'pizza and games' concept, so i'd imagine the quality of the food isn't really the star of the show.

If I had to base my answer on how poorly Swadley's did when they bought Jim's Chicken.... No... it won't be that good.

[Mesta Parker]

Gatti's was good when I lived in TX 20 years ago. Had a spicy sauce that differentiated itself from others. Don't know about now.

I remember loving their pizza as a kid, but that was in the early-to-mid 90's when I lived in west Texas. No idea how good they are today - especially to an adult palate.

It's probably a better "Experience" than what was there before. That said I only expect it to be a little better than a CiCIs pizza.

Can we just petition to get Luby's back?

[progressiveboy]

Mr. Gatti's is not bad pizza for the price. It is far better than Cici's. There is one in Plano, where I previously resided and it was always fairly busy. That location has been there at least 10 years so that should tell you something. The Luby's in Plano was good, but nothing spectacular. They had closed many of the Luby's in DFW so not many left.
