You’ll come for the stunning views of Lake Hefner, but you’ll stay for the delicious food and wonderful atmosphere of Redrock Canyon Grill.  Last month I went back to Maryland for a weekend to visit family and friends. During football season it’s rare to have completely free weekends, so I take full advantage when the opportunity …

100% grass-fed burgers, hand-cut fries, food cooked to order. The building doesn’t look like much, but the food at Patty Wagon more than makes up for it.

BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse does not disappoint with a great sports bar area, a huge menu, a great atmosphere, and locations across the country. My parents come to visit me in Oklahoma every August.

Why choose between breakfast and lunch when you can get both at Corner Bakery Cafe!

Our first stop was NorthPark Mall for a little shopping and then lunch at Corner Bakery …

Packard’s New American Kitchen, located in Midtown OKC, has a rooftop with fabulous views of downtown. Come for the atmosphere, stay for the food. Oh my gosh, I just realized it has been 2 months since I’ve done a post about a brand new restaurant! I have done a few repeat restaurants during that time, but no new ones. The …

There are dozens of sushi restaurants in Oklahoma City. Keep Inaka Sushi and Bar on your short list, serving up delicious food in an inviting atmosphere.

For a wonderful, unique taste of Latin America in Oklahoma City, look no further than 1492 New World Latin Cuisine in Midtown. I was raised Catholic, so as a kid there was no option whether or not we were going to church. Once I got to college, I stopped going. My friends and I all had …

Delicious Mexican food, a gorgeous view and lakeside dining? Look no further than Mama Roja on Lake Hefner in Oklahoma City Last month I took a road trip with my parents to New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl. We drove, and since it was an 11-hour trip, we broke it up by staying in Lafayette on …

About a year ago, I was in Oklahoma City running errands, and discovered Sheesh Mahal.

Since moving to Oklahoma, I’ve only had the chance to spend Christmas with my parents the first year. Usually my parents meet me wherever the bowl game is, and that is always the week between Christmas and New Year’s.

Cattlemen’s Steakhouse in OKC is the oldest restaurant in Oklahoma. You can’t go wrong with dry-aged, hand cut steaks, and lamb fries. Yes, lamb fries.
