Aug 19 Laredo's Mexican Restaurant at Belle Isle in NW OKC is opening soon after 4 years of construction. Hopefully, he says, it will be open next month. Maybe sometime in September, customers will get to see for themselves the restaurant at 5111 N Classen Blvd. that took four years to build.

If that doesn't say it, I'm not sure what would. Seriously, though. The interior sounds very cool. I don't mind waiting another month or so.

Steve 08-20-2009, 03:54 PM There were a lot more cool photos. I know it's not downtown, but would anyone mind if I post them at OKC Central anyway? Doug Loudenback 08-21-2009, 08:54 PM There were a lot more cool photos. I know it's not downtown, but would anyone mind if I post them at OKC Central anyway? You mean to say we have veto power over what you post in your blog? :woowoo: kevinpate 08-21-2009, 09:47 PM so long as you don't do a whole series on coffee haus chairs, i don't see me rising in protest to your content decisions 8^) ddavidson8 08-21-2009, 11:08 PM Don't change the freaking food. sooners83 08-25-2009, 10:06 AM Anyone been by this week?
