lol mickeys has one of the best bars in okc and is the best place to smoke a cigar .and doesn't have an old vibe in any way

How are the grand children doing these days?

FWIW, the last time I went to Mickey's there were people in all stages of dress and undress. My group was in slacks and jackets, ordered fairly consistently with what people here are calling MM's "instructions/rules/requirements," know how to use a fork and steak knife and we received pretty crappy service, while the folks in t-shirts and flip flops sitting near us drinking light domestic beers (I have no problem with either of these things in the slightest) were not only allowed in the restaurant but we noted it looked like they got great service in comparison. So at least anecdotally from my experience, Mickey's doesn't care about "their rules" nearly as much as many here are asserting they do.

Actually, it's just a smoking bar.

Went in there once, ordered food, and then realized about half the people in there were smoking their heads off -- and not cigars.

Never went back.

That web page just confirms my thoughts that Micky Mantle's is your grandfather's steakhouse. Watch a few Leave it to Beaver re-runs and it's obvious dining dress code and decorum is ever evolving and not written in stone like salad before dessert.

Yeah, now the standard is more like Chili's as a fine dining establishment. LOL Dignified, classy … out. Anything goes … in.

I guess that just begs the question: “does money spend?”

Found this online looking for something else. Seems a little presumptuous to tell people how they should hold their silverware, order their steak and what to drink.

Nothing says fine dining like wrinkled up messy table cloths. Check out the picture at the top of the link.

Wow!
