Just a note. That the bottom floor windows have been blacked out for several weeks now

Okay, I've figured this out... They will be taking the corner space which includes that great staircase -- see shaded area below.

However, the mezzanine stretches across to the space just to the north as well, so I don't know how they'll handle that.

This should be a really amazing setting:

I know who the operators will be, but can't say just yet.

Will be a group behind this with ample experience.

Can you say what type of food?

Edit: Nevermind, missed the Chophouse part.

That space actually has a large mezzanine from back when it was a car dealership, with a great wrought iron staircase. Hopefully this will be integrated, although this certainly won't be the only tenant on that ground floor -- it's big space.


Wow. What a great space. This has the potential to be another show piece restaurant downtown. It would be very odd if they didn't integrate the staircase. Seems to me that would be the whole reason for wanting the space.

I dig the name!

I've heard about this as well and I am very excited. This will be an excellent addition to the Midtown area with very high quality food. Will likely compete with RedPrime for business and clientele.

I now who the operators will be, but can't say just yet.

Any idea as to time frame for opening?

I believe late spring / early summer.

I will go ahead and guess this is from blvd steak house

It's a new group that has been formed featuring a few people with experience from a good local operator, plus some investors.

I'm going to sound like an idiot here, but I'm going to ask anyway-- what constitutes as a "chop house"? Is it the same concept as a steak house? Barbeque joint? High-end Arby's?

Yes, usually features fine steaks plus pork, lamb and veal chops.

Here is a menu from the Arroyo Chop House in Pasadena, which is fantastic:

Yep, Red Prime is going to have some competition!

I like the guessing game, so here is mine... Totally random, and I know nothing, but I'm going to guess the guys behind The Mule have something to do with it. Total guess.

I'm guessing the Stella people.

No, it's former higher-ups from the Hal Smith organization.

Pete is correct. :)

Yep, ex Hal Smith guys

No, it's former higher-ups from the Hal Smith organization.

Hopefully this is a long term investment for them. Correct if I am wrong, but I thought Hal was notorious for opening restaurants and flipping within the first 2 years to somebody else. Using the honeymoon period to pad the numbers and make a quick profit.

Padding the numbers and then flipping? Which restaraunts are you accusing him of doing that with? Padding numbers implies something illegal or unethical. Is that what you are saying?

Again, this isn't Hal Smith Group running it, it's former chef/front of house that used to work for him. I also know the money guy behind it. Hal's policies and influence should have very little to do with how they choose to run this. I predict it will be a success, although to beat Red Prime food-wise will be tough. This location is better and more visible though.

A peak inside their space from catch 22.

Looks like they have yet to start in earnest, which isn't a great surprise as I haven't seen a building permit as of yet. I think that is coming soon... I've heard they are trying to get all the detailed plans from the ground floor tenants at both 1100 and 1101 so they can be coordinated all at once.

I'd take Mahogany all day long over the Red Prime, I hope they keep to those same high standards .

I prefer Red, but they're both outstanding. With this and Ruth's Chris eventually, it'll be even better.

Is that ever going to happen.....Geez seems like they've been running commercials here for about the last five years now.

They keep saying so here, but I'll worry about it when they break ground. There are some pretty outstanding options for steak already, it's not like I'm missing out.

Still think Ruth's Chris will be coming to Classen Curve in the empty lot just south of Upper Crust.

Glimcher has only owned the properties a month or so... Give them time to close that deal as well as Trader Joe's.

No on Hal being a restaurant flipper.

Ruth's Chris is massive. Those are national spot commercials you see.

Just learned Broadway 10 will be taking over 8,000 square feet on the ground floor plus the full, super-cool mezzanine.

This is going to be a big, elaborate operation with a large bar featured prominently.

They are taking all the space in yellow; darker yellow is the mezzanine.

Any clue on target date to open? Very excited about prospect of a another good local steak place.

They haven't even filed the building permits for the finish-out.

Early fall is the target.

Steve has a great article (http://m.newsok.com/oklahoma-citys-automobile-alley-gets-new-restaurant-neighborhood-pub/article/4880020) on this today. Based on it and the accompanying video, this looks like it is going to be a fantastic development.

The proprietors provided these detailed renderings from Fitzsimmons Architects; note the massive bar in the center:

I suspect it will take a prominent place in my rotation.

so is this going to take up the entire frontage facing Broadway? there's a small space facing Broadway on the north end of the building. wondering if there is something else going in there, or if it will be a part of this project

Scroll up to see my post with highlighted floor plan.

BTW I believe the two other spaces on the ground floor are still available.

Yes

thanks pete! i guess i got a little lazy and didn't bother looking at the floor plan.

If this place is good, I'm going to go broke with all these new restaurant openings. We could use a good, cheap falafel place to mix it up a little.

Or a really good cheap halal stand like the one on the corner next to the New York Hilton

Love the streetside Halal places in NYC. Mmmm.

$317,000 building permit application today for this project. Remember, this does not include furniture and fixtures which will be substantial here.

Should be starting construction soon.

Work is starting on Broadway 10 (thanks to catch22 for the photo):

Some more details on this restaurant...

First look at the signage; understated but very cool. I suspect they will use window graphics to denote "Broadway 10".

Also, detailed floor plan shows a separate entrance for carry-out and a chef's table.

They are getting busy on their construction with the hopes of being open before the end of the year (from their FB page):

They have said they wanted to be open by December, and I'm starting to believe they could make it:

From the Fitzsimmons Architects FB page; this space is going to be something special:

This may turn into the most stunning restaurant in OKC.

Drove by tonight and all of the tables had table cloths and place settings. Looked almost open. Pretty stunning. I almost slammed on the brakes and ran to the windows to peer inside.

Soft opening is 11th 12th and 13th. Sooo looking forward to it.

The website still doesn't have a menu. Has anyone seen one?

does look absolutely fabulous. congrats!

Do those bench seats have some kind of lighting in them or are they just see thru tops?
