I'm not debating whether the small location is an asset, I think it is. But I think they could be better located.

Such destination restaurants are typically located in the best area of town or the showcase; in my opinion, in OKC it's in the CBD. Also, CBD spaces tend to naturally be small so there's a fit. Finally, you can't get more urban than the CBD. Put them all together along with the national praise they've gotten and this is why I made the comment/suggestion.

Now I'd like to know why GoPokes (and possibly others) think such a move would be suicide?
