Oklahoma City Restaurants

An open-style kitchen and homemade cooking makes this family-run restaurant an inviting place for diners wanting a taste of authentic Guatemalan and Mexican cuisines. The daily stew specials are definitely worth a try, especially after you know the proper technique for eating them.

In the search for the best Chinese food in town, I think I’ve narrowed my choice down to three restaurants, and Fung’s is one of them. Just be sure to go with a big group and try lots of things family style, or enjoy their dim sum offering on the weekends.

There’s only four items on the 164-item menu that are categorized as “French,” but that’s not the biggest issue I have with Lido. The main problem is that, while Lido is ok, there are so many other places that do a better job with Vietnamese/Chinese cooking in my opinion. What do you think?

The ultimate stars of this restaurant are the spicy potato stew ($6.95) and Chef’s Specialty ($10.95) — aka “goat” stew. One would be hard-pressed to find tastier potato or goat stews even among the larger Korean communities in LA or New York.

Overall, I think Lushberries might just have the best fro-yo in town with quality, unique flavors (including a couple of sorbets) and a huge selection of toppings. On the other hand, their pay-per-ounce pricing is a little higher than other leading contenders so is it worth it?

Sage offers unique dining, a convenient gourmet market and mini-deli, a pretty nice bar and some pretty good desserts choices. Aside from sub-par service with a large group, I can’t offer much complaint.

Fourteen flavors, ample toppings and a pay-per-ounce system at $0.36/oz make Orange Tree a solid fro-yo option. Plus, if you’re in Edmond, this may be your only option, at least for now.

Pink Swirls is a strong fro-yo contender, with eight organic, nonfat, live culture fro-yo flavors, a huge selection of toppings, and a self-serve set up where you create your own cup and simply pay by the ounce. And if that’s not enough, they have a sushi bar too. That’s right … sushi and yogurt. You know you’ve got to try it.

Passionberri is a decent fro-yo option with quality ingredients and competitive pricing. It may have been the first to bring the fro-yo craze to the metro, but its limited selection of flavors and toppings combined with a non-pay-by-the-ounce pricing model could leave it vulnerable when compared to other options arriving on the scene.

While it’s literally just steps away from the Ok Ko Mart, Seoul Garden’s unique offerings and great value make it worth your attention. Those looking to get the full OKC Korean food experience must definitely give Seoul Garden a try.

Ok Ko Mart’s main business is their fairly small market. From the signage outside, you would never expect to find a restaurant inside, but it’s there, toward the back of the store, serving up some very tasty Korean specialties.

By the end of the night, the job was done. The two of us easily consumed $100 worth of sushi for $40. Sumo’s all-you-can-eat sushi special and the quality of their offerings make them an amazing value for those with insatiable appetites for fish.
