Prohibition Room (closed)

[Urban Pioneer]

Can only say that their intention is to remain nearby. Exciting location planned though!

[OKCMallen]

I hate that they wojn';t maintain their position in th Gold Dome. This is why we can't have nice things, OKC.

They intended to go in by Tower in the first place, but the geriatric pace of that development forced them elsewhere. WTF is happening with that anyway? The sign lighting was nice but geez.

If by "nice," you mean smelling like sewage from time to time, I guess. If they move, I'll consider it a win.

The Tower would be an odd place. I know there's parking in the back, but it also looks like they're going to put a parking lot on the south side of 23rd. Having a bar where you have to cross a busy street to get to your car sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen.

I think moving out of the Gold Dome will be a positive step for the Prohibition Room. I have never thought of the Dome as a good location for the Prohibition Room. The Gold Dome, although restored still needs many improvements to be a good location for a quality restaurant.

Again I really hope they stay somewhere along 23rd in Uptown.

I didn't mean "nice" like high quality. I meant "nice" like totally unique and interesting to OKC where someone NOT from here might like going into a dumb-looking historic gold dome building and find a great restaurant with good food, better drinks, and great local culture.

Talking about the big picture, here. Back out for a little perspective.

Are they still open? Online hours listed as 11am to 2am but I stopped by for lunch and it was closed.

[okclee]

I didn't think they were open for lunch anymore. I thought they stopped serving lunch nearly a year ago.

Can you share any more details?

Are they or are they not moving?

They are closed for lunch except on Tuesdays, when they have a networking group meeing there.

Just found out they are moving. They will close on June 30th and reopen 2 months later in the Tower theatre building.

[betts]

Much better location for them, I think. Or perhaps it's just that it's a much better location for me. It was always hard to remember it was there, because there was no significant visible evidence of its existence.

Hope the Gold Dome can fill the vacancy quickly, otherwise fantastic news! That area is really coming to life now.

Oh that is awesome. Sauve has some TASTE in his building selection. Always interesting and hipster quirky, just like the Pro Room and its regulars.

Heard they were moving to the 10th and Broadway area

that would be wonderful for Auto alley and great for okc

I knew that they were moving a long time ago but I keep things zipped. That's how I roll. I had their lobster club and asparagus at 12:30 tonight and it was amazing. Name one other place that you can get this much lobster at this hour? I've spent some time in some amazing cities around the country and this place feels like only something I'd find in Chicago or NY. I don't care where this place moves, they "get it". Nick is made my experience what it is and I cannot wait to feature this place to our frequent diners. Consider me a massive fan!

So... the current location has tons of parking, which is handy for when they have large events... where does everybody park when it moves to the Tower?

I suspect that they will park in areas where people parked when it was a theater and drew even larger crowds. That shouldn't be a problem.

People might have to *gasp* walk a little bit. Like a WHOLE BLOCK.

Hopefully they will contract with WalMart to lend them the motorized shopping carts at night

I can leisurely stroll faster than those things can possibly go.

walking a whole block to a pub doesn't concern most folks near as much as the three block walk back.

I can't tell you how many times we walked from our downtown apartment (near the art museum) to Bricktown and back, late at night. I guess I have a skewed idea of what people can do after an evening out
