Just started $10 Racks of Ribs at both Iron Starr locations on Sundays!
Dine-in or carry-out.

The Iron Starr on Campus Corner is great. I have probably been there 15 times since it opened and everytime was great. I've only had one menu item there that was underwhelming...and that was probably just a one-time thing. I love the fact they have Native Amber on tap as well.

This is great. I love that place. If Iron Starr's not real bar-b-que, then I guess I don't want real bar-b-que

Great day for the patio at Iron Starr Norman!!

How was it a great day, it looks empty.

Iron Starr - Campus Corner is excited to partner with The Norman Arts Council. We are giving back 10% of food sales to the Arts for the entire month of May. Look for our team passing out cards at The Norman Music Festival!

How was it a great day, it looks empty.

it was a great day for the patio because of the weather.

Iron Starr on Campus Corner is now offering FREE valet parking for our guests Tuesday-Sunday, lunch and dinner!

[dismayed]

I did not know that. That is actually a really nice amenity.

I like Iron Starr--I used to go there once a week. Recently, however, the food has not been too hot (literally) and the service is lacking. I've been in there 3 times in the past month. Each time, it took about 10 minutes for a waitress to come take our drink orders, and then 10 minutes to actually get the drinks and order. I see the wait staff hanging around the bar just talking to each other and playing on their phones while we wait. It's ridiculous. The food is still pretty good, but sometimes the meat tastes dry, as if it's been sitting out waiting for someone to order or like it's the last batch of the night they're going to cook. Pretty disappointed. I'll go back and see if the past 3 times were just an odd aberration, but I'm not hopeful.

Update: I went back to the Iron Starr location on Campus Corner and the service was noticeably better. The food was very good, though the meat was still a little dry. I will return again soon and see if it continues to improve.

I expect it will because someone from the Good Egg Group contacted me directly after seeing my complaint and wanted to see what he could do to make the situation better. That shows me these guys take their customers seriously and are serious about creating a good dining experience. That's highly encouraging-- and, in my opinion, rare in today's dining industry. Having visited some of their other restaurants and enjoying the food and atmosphere immensely, I'm confident the campus corner location will continue to improve.

Iron Starr is closed in Norman. Just couldn't make it. I enjoyed it and hate to see it go. I'll just have to go to OKC now.

This is a surprise, I thought they were doing very well.

Campus Corner can be a cruel mistress.

[blangtang]

If memory serves, they recently had a groupon for the norman location only. Glad i didnt buy any!

[Andrew4OU]

Wow, that's a bummer.

[Bigrayok]

Probably too expensive for college students, plus I am not sure how popular BBQ is with college students, especially upscale BBQ like Iron Starr. I have seen a lot of restaurants come and go on Campus Corner. During breaks and even in the summer it can be a ghost town. I like Campus Corner. I have been going to Othello's, Toto's, and Victoria's since the 1980's.

The Wimgo Deal will still be good at the OKC location. No worries on that.

[dankrutka]

Really sad. It was a great place to go...

[jbkrems]

Yeah, this is sad. I had many good visits there. Too bad.

[soonerfan_in_okc]

damn. I go to OU, and me and my roommates love that place. Their ribs are top notch. This pisses me off, now my only choices are burritos or sandwiches on campus corner.

[kevinpate]

Or, ditch CC and keep the Q ....
Ribs, etc. at Van's on N. Porter (less than 1.0 miles from campus corner
Ribs, etc. at Sooner Legends at SW 24th and W. Lindsey (less than 2.0 miles from CC)
Ribs, etc. at Ray's on W. Lindsey(even closer to CC than Sooner Legends)
There are other spots around town as well, but these three are close to campus and you can't go wrong at them.

[BG918]

That's surprising. I wonder what restaurant will fill that space? BBQ was something I thought could do really well in Campus Corner. Tuck - what happened??

What's the story with the slight name change from Iron Starr to Iron Star? They had a website update and the whole nine yards with it. Home - Iron Star
