Although I value its "history" more than I do its "food," I understand that's just a matter of taste and opinion. But, the reason for this post is to mention a very nice post in the Life & Travel section of the Dallas Morning News at Oklahoma City's Cattlemen's is worth the ride | Dallas Morning News | News for Dallas, Texas | Travel: This Week . It presents a very flattering view of Cattlemen's and contains some nice info on Stockyards City, as well. A snippet:

Oklahoma City's Cattlemen's is worth the ride

OKLAHOMA CITY – At the end of the trail, there's a place with food good enough to justify the journey: the historic Cattlemen's Steakhouse in Stockyards City.

Cattlemen's Steakhouse opened in 1910, the same year as the Oklahoma National Stockyards. A meal here is a sure bet, which is appropriate because gambling plays a part in the restaurant's history. In 1945, its owner bet the restaurant that his opponent would not roll two 3s, otherwise known as a hard six. The place changed hands with a roll of the dice, and the 33 brand on a wall in the restaurant became a symbol of the new owner's good fortune.
