Next spring Olive Garden will open in Stillwater. It will be Oklahoma's first Olive Garden outside of an Oklahoma metro area. I wonder if they will make it as nice as the one near Penn Square with all that exterior sandstone.

I'm pretty sure Lawton has an Olive Garden so this may be the second city outside a metro city.

But Lawton is a metro city.

Good news for Stillwater area folk who might be partial to enjoying OG. They join their kindred spirits from Tulsa [2], Owasso, Broken Arrow), OKC [3], Norman and Lawton.

I may not be a fan, but lots of folk sure seem to find OG very satisfying.
