Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in Yukon

"Like much of OKC, Cheever’s Cafe is housed in a repurposed building with a history. Founded by one of the children of the 89ers, a sub-group of folks that settled this area of the country in the run of the Unassigned Lands in 1889, it stood tall as a family-run floral business until 2000. Now, converted to an Art Deco culinary outpost that features roast quail tostadas, shrimp and grits, and a short rib melt that’s to die for, among other delights, it serves as one of the culinary scenes anchors, going strong for nearly 20 years."

The finished piece is about twice the size of an actual cougar, towering 15 feet above its base."

"When your brood is craving the bold flavors of Mexico, check out Cultivar Kitchen on North Broadway Avenue. If you’ve ever dined out with little ones, you know it’s hard to get them to try anything. Your finicky eaters will gobble up the grub at this non-traditional Mexican restaurant."
