I've been meaning to write a review of this place for some time, as it has been my sentimental favorite restaurant in OKC ever since I moved here a couple years ago. I've been hesitant though because I really do consider it a hiddem gem!
Cafe Antigua is a Guatamalan restaurant on 19th and Classen that specializes in breakfast,, but also offers a few other items such as steak, pork chops, sandwiches. However, they are known for the breakfest. Nearly every breakfest item features eggs. The eggs are made any you want it, but they are always served in a special way. The dish they are most known for is their #7, which is two tortillas with beans in the middle, topped with an egg. On top of the egg, they sprinkle a couple differnet kinds of cheeses, a special marinara type suace, and avocado. They then put chips around the edges. Price: $6. Taste: Amazing. You cannot get a bid dish at this place, and trust me since I've tried about every one of them. They are all very fresh and delicious.
They also serve really great frush fruit smoothies that I could drink everyday. The restaurant is a family run restaurant and has some of the nicest wait-staff I've ever seen. You really root for them to succeed because they are the definition of the American dream, moving from another country to start a restaurant in Oklahoma City.
Newsok.com did a feature story on the restauraunt, with a video that interviews one of the workers and provides more information about the food they offer. Here's the link (http://newsok.com/cafe-antiguas-no.-7-hits-a-home-run-with-diners/article/3350134?custom_click=pod_lead_life)
