    Visited on July 2, 2026…read more Service: The service was phenomenal. The waiter gave a tour of the menu - recommending what to get. Ambiance: The inside was quite busy during the dinner hours, but the patio was calmer. The weather was nice so the patio was perfect. Food: The Nam Khao was full of flavor and the crunchiness was perfect. Peeng Seen was flavorful, but the least favorite dish. Chuen Gai was the best part of the meal. Incredibly bold flavor with a crunchy texture. For dessert, the Naam Vahn was refreshing, light, and not overly sweet. Overall, the food-to-cost ratio is not the strongest, but the quality of food and service is top tier.

Even though weather was pretty warm, we enjoyed sitting outside under the covered patio. Food: everything was delicious. Be warned, though, the original papaya salad at "light spice" is incredibly spicy, even for a thai person. Sai Oua (sausage) is exactly how it should taste and I loved this nice little side dish. One star off for service - not only was the service really really slow (had to walk inside to ask for the server to come out and take our order), but we ordered the fried chicken and never received it because our server forgot to put in our order. So sad, especially since the fried chicken is supposed to go with our salads and sticky rice we ordered! And the fact that we don't plan on coming back to OKC in the near future. Street parking wasn't that hard for us during late lunch hours.

    OOOOOO EMMMMMM GEEEEEE!!!! That fried chicken though! The last time we were here I had the mashed…read morepotatoes with my steak so I knew those were a standout! I noticed a lady sitting on the patio last time eating some beautiful fried chicken and I decided to inquire....."Hello, ma'am. Do you mind if I ask how the chicekn tastes?" She enthusiastically replied that she loves the chicken at Pub W and that is her go to for fried chicken. What an awesome recommendation. Incredibly flavorful, crispy and came with the perfect mashed potatoes and fresh green beans with roasted bell pepper. The service here is over the top friendly, conversational and a delight! We had the squashpuppies again and they were as awesome as last time. The waitress indicated that ceviche was the special that day and I regret not trying it. Next time!

    We'd heard great things about the chicken, but didn't really feel like sitting in a restaurant, so…read moreI ordered it as takeout. We ended up getting 3 of the chicken meals, 3 sides of fruit, 2 sides of mashed potatoes and gravy and side of squashpuppies. I arrived for the curbside about 10 minutes early but before I could even check in, someone came out to acknowledge my presence and to let me know she'd be watching for the order to be ready. I know sometimes when you order chicken it takes a bit, so I was not worried about waiting. By the time my order was running maybe 5-10 minutes overdue, another employee came out to assure me they were working on the order. Again, no worries, it was kind of getting to be the busier time of evening, it was lovely out, I had no problem sitting and waiting. About 15 minutes after my "order time" the food came out and I headed home. Since the orders were each for 1/2 chicken, you get 4 big pieces of chicken, plus a nice side of pineapple and the mashed potatoes were decent size, maybe not enough gravy. I'll be honest I didn't pay much attention to the squashpuppies as they weren't mine and I don't like squash. I did take a teeny nibble from one and instantly said "nope" but really not fair for me to judge. The mashed potatoes ended up being very rich and overseasoned. I'm not sure if it was the gravy or the potatoes or both. I know they were going for decadent, but it clashed with the chicken which also had a lot of seasoning. We both didn't finish our potatoes and didn't bother saving them. The squashpuppies also were not a hit with the person ordering them. The chicken seemed a bit overcooked (the breading), but inside was nice and juicy. I saved the breast for later and it definitely seemed the most overcooked of the 4 pieces, but also I had reheated it a bit as a leftover, so probably unfair to judge. The food was good and for $20 each meal, it actually was not a bad price. The attention from the staff was nice as it's not uncommon for curbside pickup to be less easy these days, but it worked out and I appreciate them for that. I'd be curious to try something different next visit (I don't live in the area), but also liked the chicken enough I wouldn't mind having it again either.

    We wanted a casual Sunday night dinner. We had not been to Eddies in Chisholm Creek in Oklahoma…read moreCity. We were thrilled to enjoy quite a variety of food types on their menu. I had a great grilled chicken and avocado sandwich. My friend had a personal pizza. My husband had a very good Cobb Salad with chicken. That looked like a terrific choice. They also had a variety of hamburgers and pastas. Great menu! Eddies had lots of TV monitors & a covered patio where each table fir 4 had its own TV monitor. The service was excellent and prices were good. This is in a great location near Top Golf. I highly recommend Eddies!

After 40 minutes I finally asked my server to physically go check on it. She disappeared into the kitchen for 10 minutes, then came back with the manager. Turns out my server had rung in a cocktail instead of my salad. Fine -- mistakes happen. What's not fine is that the manager's solution was to ask me to pay the difference because the salad cost more. I'd been sitting there for an hour. I said no thanks, cancel the order. On my way out I overheard the manager tell the bartender "don't worry about it" -- apparently already moving on while I was still standing there with no food and no apology. I turned around and confirmed my card wasn't charged. Left after an hour. Hungry. And no putting Eddies on the Do Not Go Back list. Went to RR and had a RR salad. Belly happy!!!

I measure burger spots by their onion burgers if they have one. My gold standard onion burgers are at Tucker's and The Garage. I like an onion burger to have onions seared into the patty, but I will take sauteed onions as a close runner-up. That is what you find on the onion burger at 74. I ordered my onion burger with no cheese, some dill pickles, and the scallion aioli on the side. The sauteed onions were the best part about this burger - buttery and savory and mmmmmmmm good! The patty itself was more firm than I like; I suspect that it started out frozen in the kitchen. That's not my preferred burger. However, it was served hot and had some grill flavor. The onion bun sounded promising on the menu description, but it ultimately added nothing to the taste of the burger. On the other hand, the salty, crunchy dill pickles provided a good contrast with the umami from the sauteed onions and burger patty. I tried a little bit of the aioli by itself and decided that it was not worth putting on the burger because it was much too rich for me. I ordered green beans instead of fries for my side. These reminded me of the green beans at the Drum Room. Sigh. I miss the Drum Room. Their fried chicken was my favorite in the OKC metro, and those green beans were my favorite side. At the Drum Room, they were uneven in quality. Sometimes they didn't make an effort to mix the bacon and onion into the green beans. What I ate at 74 was the best version of the Drum Room green beans that I remember. Crisp green beans mixed with real bacon bits and sauteed onion bits -- mmmmmmm good! 74 is not near where I live or work, but it's worth another visit to try some more burgers and their wings the next time I am near Nichols Hills.

    If you grew up in Oklahoma, then you likely know about the famous Eskimo Joe's. My family went here…read morefor dinner on New Years Eve - we thought we'd encounter a huge wait like we have in the past, but surprisingly they were able to sit us right away. I do recommend checking the waitlist they have on their website if you plan to dine here - it just gives you a good idea of how long the wait will be and you can also add your party to the waitlist before you arrive so you aren't just standing around waiting for 30 minutes to an hour, this location gets pretty packed some nights. The restaurant itself is pretty big, it's been the same for as long as I can remember and I like that about it. It isn't super trendy or chic, it's got the wooden floors and pool tables and it just reminds me of Oklahoma if that makes sense at all. Our server was super nice, he was on top of everything and had a great attitude. I ordered the frito chili pie - mostly for the fact that I live in Florida now and I don't know of anywhere else that I can order that, it's a nostalgic thing for me for sure. I also had a side cesar salad - no complaints there either. The food has always been good for every time I've visited here. You have to check out the gift shop as well while you're here - you can't go to Eskimo Joe's and not bring home a cup, or shirt, or sweater, or koosie showing the world that you've been there lol The gift shop really is one of our favorite parts about eating here. Our kitchen cabinet has stacks of these Eskimo Joe's cups (which is great for a house with kids) and every member of the family has an Eskimo Joe's shirt...we love it here and will definitely be back.
