Walt's Champagne Chicken Salad

Great service and great food every time! Perfect date night spot as well. I love Walt's salad, candied pecans and dates go so well in this.

Appetizer CREAM SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Loved it no worded can explain how friendly and quick they are with the food. The prime rib was absolutely top-tier. Cooked to perfection, it came out tender, juicy, and packed with rich, beefy flavor in every bite. The seasoning was on point -- not overpowering, just enough to let the quality of the meat shine through. The cut was thick, the texture was melt-in-your-mouth soft, and the au jus complemented it perfectly. You can tell real care went into the preparation. If you're a prime rib fan, this one definitely hits the mark. I'd order it again without hesitation.

OVEN ROASTED CHICKEN

We went there for my boss's birthday. The food was delicious, the service was great, and the restaurant is very low key and relatively quiet, except during lunchtime.

Dynamite shrimp salad
Natalie T.

Food is always good. I love their dynamite shrimp salad. I especially like the tender juicy shrimp crisped up just right and served with the salad made from perfectly chilled lettuce, sliced pea pods, carrots, and sesame ginger vinaigrette! Delicious! Service is always great with ambiance of soft lighting beautiful interiors and delightful aromas. Always a favorite restaurant!

We were seated right away. Offered drinks and appetizers by our amazing server. It was noisy but the way the booths are done we didn't have any issue hearing our own conversation. Never did I see an employee standing around. Food and service were the best!!

Coconut cream pie yummy

We've come to Norman, Oklahoma two years in a row for work, and we've eaten at Pub W both times…read more This visit was just as great as I remembered, if not better! Our service and meal were absolutely fantastic. I wish I could remember our server's name, but she took care of our group of about 12 in the back room and was on top of everything all night. She was so kind, patient, and willing to repeat things when needed, which is huge when you have that many people trying to get attention at once. She even thanked us for coming in, which was such a sweet touch. The food was amazing. She accidentally brought out an extra side of squash puppies and let us keep them, so I tried them even though I hadn't ordered them. Let me tell you, you HAVE to order them. They were absolutely divine, and the butter and jam they come with are incredible. I started with a salad, which was also very good, and then ordered the chicken bruschetta based on our server's recommendation. The Brussels sprouts were insane, so flavorful and easily one of my favorite parts of the meal. The bruschetta was delicious too, and I ended up eating almost all of it. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and would recommend Pub W to anyone. The back room was the perfect spot for our large group and had such a fun, relaxed vibe. We'll definitely be back the next time work brings us to Norman!

Service was incredible. Hat-tip to Emily E., she was on point…read more One problem we had was a large corner booth of 6, obviously over-served men were dropping F-Bombs, laughing and talking really loudly, in attempts to ensure that each respective story was heard. Okay in a bar, but not in a dining room with multiple children within earshot. Food was great, drinks on point and service stellar.

Had my first experience here last Friday. It was awesome. Walked in and sat down at the bar and…read morethe bartender was very nice. They have pool tables and we had fun playing lots of pool. They have a TouchTunes so you can select your songs and hear them while you're having a good time! Just don't forget that if you leave and go into the other room, you won't hear your songs in there so only use your credits when you're in that section and can enjoy your music. We went to the karaoke room and spent the rest of the night there. The two bars system is connected so your tab transfers between both. Their food menu is available until 1 am which is AWESOME! I had some mozzarella sticks when I was pretty wasted and they were delicious, and I'm not saying that just because I was drunk - I know my mozzarella sticks, drunk and sober, they were good. The menu is very large too, plenty of options. I was suprised because a lot of bars don't have much food or even food at all. All of the bartenders and staff were friendly and talkative, it was such a fun time. The Karaoke is fun to watch and sometimes the DJ plays a song that we can all do a group dance to, you know something like the "cha cha real smooth" dance that makes us who can't dance feel like we have some skills at least. In my drunk mind I think I looked like Britney Spears dancing but I know to everyone else it probably looked more like Willliam Hung doing she bangs! She bangs! (YouTube it if you haven't seen it) After hearing last call I decided to pick a song for karaoke but the DJ told me I was too late. Maybe next time. And there will be a next time for sure. The hangover the next day was worth it.

She hit on my friends man in front of everyone while knowing he was there with someone. Then continued to be rude to my friend. It was disgusting behavior and ruined the experience. Enjoyed coming here frequently until the bartender stepped WAY out of line. So so upsetting

First our waiter had come to our table but we were still looking at menu. After 2nd time, we didn't see him for a bit. I ordered the Trio without shrimp. I was pointing at the picture. Guessing they have Fajita that are trio too. That's what he brought me. I asked because pic showed cheese all melted on top with zucchini . They did take it back to correct. Like 3 blobs of cheese when it came. Steak was alittle chewy but Chicken was good. Lots of onions but not really cooked. Would I order again, no. Would I come back, no. I do think great place for a drink! Sorry to say,Waiter Edgar, not the best. Oh, and what was funny is after he took my plate that was wrong. A little while later he came and took the rice and beans that were in a separate plate without saying a word. I started to eat them while I was waiting for meal to be corrected. Glad I didn't, lol.

I debated between a four- and five-star rating, but overall this was still a five-star experience…read more This was my second visit, and I returned because I remembered having the best steak I'd ever eaten here. While this steak wasn't quite as impressive, it was a bit tougher than I'd hoped, the flavor was still phenomenal, with a great smoky, straight-off-the-grill taste. Our server, Gracie, was fantastic: friendly, helpful, and accommodating to our large party. We ordered several appetizers and enjoyed most of them, though the cornbread was noticeably dry according to several people at the table. The coconut pineapple margarita was a standout and well worth ordering. The tropical flavors were delicious, and the coconut rim was a great touch. I also loved my salad, especially the tomatoes, which were surprisingly flavorful. For my entrée, the steak was cooked well and paired nicely with the mashed potatoes. Although the texture kept it from matching my first visit, it was still very enjoyable. One thing we really enjoyed was the atmosphere. We were seated in a room toward the back near the wine cellar, adjacent to a pond outside. It ended up being a great spot because we could watch people enjoying the outdoor area throughout the evening. The restaurant struck a nice balance, it felt upscale and welcoming without being overly quiet. Our group was able to be a little loud and goofy without feeling out of place, which made the experience even more fun. What ultimately secured the five-star rating was dessert. I can't remember its name, but it's pictured in the photo. It was enormous and absolutely incredible, one of the best desserts I've ever had and the perfect ending to the meal. Overall, I would absolutely recommend this restaurant. The steak wasn't quite as tender as I remembered, but the excellent service, great drinks, solid appetizers, enjoyable atmosphere, and outstanding dessert made for a wonderful experience.

I decided to treat myself today and ordered the Wagyu steak, expecting it to be something special…read more Unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment. Another person in my group also ordered the Wagyu steak, and we both felt the same way--it was not good at all. For a $51 steak, I expected excellent quality, but instead it tasted like something you could buy at a dollar store. I ended up leaving hungry because I couldn't bring myself to eat it. I do want to recognize the staff. Our server was a very polite young man who provided excellent service, and the hostess was welcoming and hospitable. In the end, my bill was around $60 because I decided to splurge on myself today. It's disappointing to spend that much money only to end up wasting it on a steak I couldn't eat. I truly hope the restaurant takes another look at the quality of its Wagyu steak because it did not live up to its price.
