Hello, I am new here, but I have some OKC food memories.
Included:
Crystal’s Pizza (Always enjoyed watching Laurel & Hardy, etc. in the movie section).
Shakey’s Pizza (Great Canadian Bacon)
Lefty’s Pizza in Del City (Awesome combo pizzas)
Pizza Planet (We always went there after the races on Friday nights).
Mr. Gattis Pizza
Casa Bonita (Flag was always up)
Taco Tico
There was a Mexican restaurant off of SW 59th and Western that was like a buffet line, but I can’t remember the name. Anyone know?
Big Ed’s (I remember THE Big Ed working behind the counter at the NW 23 & MacArthur location).
Westoaks (Another good place for burgers).
Bonanza (Same as above).
Tasty Freeze (Another good place for burgers III).
Fudruckers (Another good place for burgers IV).
Longneckers (Another good place for burgers V).
Garfield’s or El Chico in Shepherd Mall
UR Cooks
Harry’s Oyster Bar (I think my buddies and I put them out of business on $.10 oyster nights).
Colonel Drakes (located off of I-35, now I believe it’s a strip club). They had the best blue cheese dressing I have ever had.
Neptunes Submarine Sandwiches (People act like Subway is the greatest thing in the world, but I would put these up against them any day).
Hotsy Hot Dogs (Great Bacon Cheeseburgers, no. 16 I believe).
Girlies Pancake House
Hillbilly Barbeque Sandwiches (They used to sell these at Rudy’s on SW 59th and May)
Also, there used to be a BBQ place on SW 59th between Penn and Western that sat on the north side of the street, but I can’t remember the name of it. Anyone remember that?
The Round Up Café on SW 29th & Agnew (a great greasy-spoon).
Sirloin Stockade
Alamo Plaza on S. Robinson
