It's a little different because it's more authentic but I don't really care about that, they just have a chicken burrito that I love lol. Some of their burritos are $6+ but they're huge. Kind of like Qdoba's.Quote:

I've heard Revolve Pizza is good and quick. That'd be perfect for lunch!

It seemed pretty silly at the time since there wasn't a Del Taco place in Oklahoma, but now they are here.

That is the story I have always heard about the name change too.Quote:

Earl's isn't terrible...My wife loves it. I much, MUCH prefer Spencer's. I've been meaning to try the place at 29th and Douglas called Judge's.
Del Taco is...Okay. But I lived in SoCal for a decade and they're everywhere. They're drunk food at 3 am because the real restaurants aren't open. Which is fine, they're great for the niche they're in.
I'd love a GOOD Chinese restaurant. But I've not found that anywhere in OKC, so I won't hold my breath for MWC to get one.
Pizza...I ain't picky about. I love it all. I even love the low-calorie diet frozen pizza. If you could make your shoe look like a slice of pizza, my brain will tell my tongue that it tastes good and I'd eat it all.
I'd love to have a theater. That's my biggest want, I think.
Are there any Goldies left in OKC? I think there is still one in Tulsa.Quote:

I haven't heard anything about Judge's, I'm looking forward to trying it.Quote:

I'm not sure where this belongs, but I noticed in this morning's DOK that On the Border has bought property between Air Depot and I-40. Not sure what that means, it doesn't look like an ideal place for a restaurant.

I believe it's the property where the Bamboo Room was locatedQuote:

I don't personally like On the Border, and can't say I think it will last with Ted's so close, but I'd take that over the Bamboo Room. LOLQuote:

Look at Interurban. No matter where they go, they always seemed to stay busy, but they also always seemed to close....then rebuild nearby, then close...the cycle never ended. Only recently when they stopped and focused on the existing locations, did they get some stability.Quote:

We always enjoyed Goldie's. They have been around for a long time, but just can't seem to make it in the OKC metro area.

I'm so excited for On the Border! They're by-far my favorite franchise Mexican food. Their flour tortillas are homemade (which is few and far between, sadly) and their empanadas and queso are delicious. This is a great addition to MWC, IMO!Quote:

What is about at S.E 15th and S.Sooner Rd. There were empty land and last of May 2015 were torn down Sooner Rose School. So now what have a planning to a new building next year in 2016? So do you have any idea of this planning?
It was purely speculative purchasing by the bank that bought out Sooner Rose. That huge chunk of land has been vacant for 60+ years. The couple of other shops, like the auto auction, that got destroyed in the may 3rd tornado thankfully never came back. It's near the highway, but not visible from it. It's quite large too. So I wouldn't hold my breath that anything is in the pipes, and honestly, I don't know how much of it is contiguously owned.....check the assessor's website for that info. If the ownership is divided, then you wont see much happen.
MW City is having a planning hearing on Feb 2 at 6pm to create a PUD for retail at that location. This will be combining the school property with several other pieces.
Sooner development has the development contract with MW City to put this together.
I'd love for more Entertainment, (whether it be movie theater, mini golf, bowling etc) , I want a Michaels back & a Jo-Ann's (i'm a crafter) , I've had Del Taco & they were ok imo, a lil cheaper than Taco Bueno but their meat was a bit spicy for my liking , I'm excited abt getting an oncue at 23rd & Douglas & wish there more more food options on the north side of Reno lol (I live off ne10th), , maybe Mardel could come back to mwc in the space that Hobby Lobby is going to vacate.. , I'd also love to see some smaller independent bakeries so if I want a special BD Cake , I don't have to go out of my way or just settle for Walmart/ Crest etc..
