I am originally from the San Francisco Bay area, having access to the finest fish dishes known around the world. Mr Watson's catfish is the best I have ever had.

The prices are very affordable and the ambiance is down home enjoyable. The service staff are very nice and friendly to everyone.

Visiting a friend that lives on a ranch north of Shawnee and he wanted to take us to Curtis Watkins…read morerestrauant for lunch. It's located on the Southwest corner of I-40 and McCloud road. I've driven by that location many times over the years and never noticed the restaurant. It does sit toward the back of the property behind and to the north of the Sinclair service station. The restaurant is typical small town; a throwback to another era before the explosion of chain restrauants. We were greeted by Curtis who opened the restrauant 47 years ago. The venue is causal and relaxed. The menu features all you can eat catfish for $14.95 and comes with a garden salad and two sides and a small bowl of pinto beans and hot roll. The menu has a variety of Southern comfort items such as fried chicken livers which one of my friends ordered. I ordered the all you can eat fried shrimp, with fries and fried okra. The hospitality and service are excellent. The food is good, the prices are low-moderate ($$) The noise was low.

My wife had the Dagwood sandwich. She said it was very good. She asked for crispy bacon almost burnt. They honored her request. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. It reminds you of the old diners back in the 60's and 70's. I highly recommend this place. When I travel through Oklahoma on my way to visit relatives in Nebraska, I will stop again.

We visit Shawnee once a year usually memorial Day weekend so…read morethat means that some local eateries are closed for the holiday weekend. We tried to come here last year but they were closed. They were open this morning so off we went. This little place is in downtown Shawnee. It's a seat yourself place with bar seating at the open kitchen. We sat at a booth and were immediately greeted. The service was great. Coffee was much better than what our hotel offered. I ordered the "sausage patty" meal which was choice of meat, choice of toast or grits and choice of hash browns or home potatoes with 2 eggs your way. I chose the bacon, home toast, and home potatoes. I was not disappointed. The home toast is made in house and was thick cut, buttered and griddle toasted. Yummy! Hubby got the western omelet with hashbrowns and enjoyed it. Son got the 3 buttermilk pancakes and hashbrowns. It was clean plates all around. We will def be back!

Terrible experience with the food…read more I took my lady and her friends out for her birthday dinner and had reservations for 4 of us on Saturday night at 9pm (4-12-2025). After leaving, we ended up grabbing food elsewhere due to them running out of food and what was left was over cooked... Here's what happened; We sat down and our server asked how we like our meats cooked (Rare/Medium- Rare) and gave us a rundown of the food selections. It all sounded really good! We were excited! The first gentleman that stopped by our table had two pieces of pork loin left and asked if we wanted it as it was THE LAST of the pork loin for the night. Even though everyone at our table wanted it, only two of us got to eat it. Over the next few times they came around with meats, it didn't look too good as it all seemed a bit over cooked. The meat that was being served was at best medium-well cooked and our table kept asking for rare or medium rare meat. We then started to get the response every time that "THIS IS ALL WE GOT LEFT" or "THERE ISN'T ANYMORE COMING".... We were not happy with that response. At 9:30 we asked the server about 3 different items that she listed off in the beginning that were on the menu. All three items were unavailable due to them being "OUT". This made our table pretty upset when she walked away because they didn't have the meats that we were looking forward too, and that everything they were bringing out was over cooked and saying "THIS IS ALL WE HAVE LEFT".. My questions is, THEN WHY TAKE A 9PM RESERVATION ON A SATURDAY?? Seriously, why take a reservation at 9pm if you are out of some meats by 9:30 and the rest of the meat that is being served is over cooked and didn't taste very good.. It's not like it's in the middle of the week, it's a Saturday night!! Super unfortunate night. They still charged us full price. And my lady had less than a subpar birthday dinner. NOT a great experience.

A great hidden gem in downtown Shawnee!…read more We always grab their seasonal special drink and are never disappointed. Their starter of crispy cauliflower is very flavorful but ask for it a little more crispy/charred and you'll enjoy it even more. Their pasta is very filling and flavorful but I've always been a sucker for their burger. Get it with an extra side of their special ketchup and you'll be in for a treat. The space is pretty intimate and comfortable. I love the patio if the weather permits. And always ask about the specials- their staff is always ready to give their tips and things to try for the table.

Mostly Yougart and pineapple, something you could throw together. Service was good Canned pop, but nice lady did bring me cup of ice. I drink alot when I'm eating, so prefer soda machine or Tea.

Comfortable chairs, sofas, work tables and even a bonus classic Speakeasy attached to it for more potent refreshments. I was in Harrah for family and spent several hours in The Simple Brew for 5 straight days and had the pleasure of trying many items on the menu. It is a family/woman/minority owned business and the clientele is very diverse and has a great vibe. I had several coffee and teas and was super impressed with everything. Of note were the latte's and the fruit flavored tea. The homemade cookies were great as was the breakfast and lunch sandwiches. I wished I had gotten the time to try the weekend brunch as the food looked delicious. I can't really say enough good things about The Simple Brew. It was a totally unexpected find for a small rural town. The owners should be incredibly proud of what they've created here.
