America's Most Underrated Food City: Here Are the Best Restaurants in OKC
"Elemental Coffee is a minimalist café near the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum and the perfect spot to grab a coffee and a snack after exploring one of the city’s most iconic attractions. The café has a warm and friendly atmosphere and serves espresso and craft coffee from ethically sourced and in-house roasted coffee beans roasted in-house, along with a variety of teas, and other drinks. The café serves a breakfast and lunch menu of healthy food like gourmet sandwiches, salads, soups, and baked goods like cookies, cakes, and pastries."
"Originally just a coffee shop, Elemental expanded in 2014 to feature a full kitchen and, most importantly, a vegan bakery. The muffins are a consistent favorite of mine, but if you catch them on a day that they're feeling inspired, try whatever they're experimenting with. Recently, they featured lemon-strawberry sweet rolls."
"Elemental Coffee Yesterday we started with donuts and coffee and today, we’ll start with coffee and a cookie!. Are you sensing a theme yet?. I touched on this cookie in my vegan guide to OKC, but I’ll let you know here too."
"It has been more than 33 years since La Baguette crossed the seas from France to serve the citizens of the Oklahoma City area. La Baguette is primarily a bakery that produces warm, fresh goods daily for any time during the day but especially for breakfast. Sunday brunch includes a special menu that consists of items such as crépes, Belgian waffles, and much more."
"La Baguette Bistro is an upscale yet casual family-owned eatery specializing in contemporary French cuisine. Stop by for brunch, housemade baked goods, or settle into the cozy bar for a glass of wine. Check their website for special wine tastings held in The Wine Room.Address: 7408 N May Ave, Oklahoma City, OK 73116Website: labaguettebistro.com"
"La Baguette Bistro on May and La Baguette Deep Deuce are perfect spots to relax and enjoy a leisurely brunch. The Euro-casual ambiance is comfortable and easy while maintaining elegance."
"I am so happy to say that there is a vegan-friendly bakery right in Classen Curve. Not only do they have vegan pastries and gluten-free pastries, cookies, and cookie cakes but they also specialize in cupcakes. I’ve had many wonderful birthdays brightened with their vegan birthday cupcakes!"
"Despite the generic dining room, Chae (opened late 2015) is — like Goro Ramen — the kind of place it’s good to finally see happen in OKC. Results definitely aren’t as consistent here as at Goro (and cocktails are better at Goro) but the joy is to be able to find some solid modern Korean food in OKC (there is a short list of spots like Korean House and newcomers like Taste of Korea). Daniel Chae and team offers traditional family dishes and some of my common Korean favorites, like ddukboki ($12 – Korean spicy rice dumplings) and short rib bibimbap ($25), alongside more hit-and-miss “fusion” from kimchi duck sauce egg rolls ($6) to kimchi arancini ($8)."
"Perfect setting for a fun dinner where you really want to catch up on conversation and be treated to delicious meals."
"Start your day here with a breakfast pastry and cup of coffee. Enjoy options like muffins, scones and croissants to begin your morning right. For those with a sweet tooth, the cinnamon rolls, peanut butter cookies and chocolate chip cookies are always a big hit."
"A southside classic in the heart of Capitol Hill, its prices are surprisingly small and its food’s flavor levels (and quantity) immense. My strong recommendation is the cheesy omelet filled to bursting with deliciously slow-building heat courtesy of their homemade chorizo. (Ground pork shoulder, peppers, plenty of spice – it’s delicious.) Accompanied by a mess of well-done hash browns, toast and black coffee, this is basically an ideal start to the morning."
"Elk Valley Brewing raises the bar on Anthem Brewing and flavored saisons with their Cucumber Saison. Actually EVBC raises the bar on the abv as well. Elk Valley is brewing some Imperial Stouts with an alcohol profile that rivals that of nearly any other brewery in the United States."
"A retired airline engineer turned a home brewing hobby into a rather successful business, focusing on beers he enjoys drinking at home or on the golf course."
"Founded all the way back in 1992, Bricktown Brewery is a famous local brewpub chain serving burgers, pizza, American comfort food & beer in a brick-walled space."
