    Chocolate chip pecan cookie
    Aditya S.

    Amazing burger, might be one of the best I've ever had. huge patty, juicy and succulent with friendly service and a really unique vibe. Even the cup of water was phenomenal so you can tell they pay close attention to details. Finished off the meal with a chocolate chip pecan cookie made by nics mom, perfect way to end the meal. Business is Cash only

    Cheese and everything

    Holy crap that was good! Visiting from out of town I was told by a local to go to Nic's and I'm lucky I was. This is one of the best burgers I've had in my life. That's what they have, burgers and curly fries. Felt like that scene out of Hell or High Water, "so, what don't you want?" If you're in OKC you have to go to Nic's. Messy, juicy, flavor explosion in your mouth. Simple ingredients done to perfection. What a burger should be. FYI - cash only, but there's an ATM across the street.

    This is one of those places known for what they do, and what they do... they do very, VERY well. It's simple really. Burger. Grilled onions. Cheese. Plus all the fixings. However, the flavor is somehow dialed up to 200%. For reals. It's certainly one of the best onion burgers in the area. Beware that they do command a high price, but there wont be any room to eat for the rest of the day anyways. It's a monster burger with monster flavor. Cheese oozing, and juice drippin'. This is part of the experience and I enjoyed every bite of it. Good service and experience.

    A/C unit

    My family and I were disappointed by how unclean it was. We came early at 10:30 today cause we heard about limited seating. All the A/C units had dust and grease on them. The one tv that was off had smears. The buffalo taxidermy had dust and what looked like grime on it. The flies were constantly flying around us. The bar seats had big wear and tear on them. And the floor and tables hadn't been cleaned after the breakfast crowd. The staff is at least nice and the food was good, but not great enough to understand the rating of "best burger place in Oklahoma". I was surprised to see that this place hasn't been inspected since 2024 according to the Yelp inspection report AND that it passed health inspection.

    This place isn't only about the cheese burgers and fries, which are very good, it's an experience. Nic is a real character in all the good ways: friendly, talkative and polite. If you want to experience (one) part of Oklahoma, this is a good start. There might be as good or better onions burgers around (Tucker's?) but what Tucker's has in cleanliness, seating and modern interiors (see a previous review complaining about cleanliness) this place makes up in character.

    Nice little place. They don't stay open for very long everyday but it is worthy to go there to get great food. The curly fries are awesome, freshly fried, crispy and not oily at all. Service is super quick. The burger is cooked to perfection. It is full of wok hei, which is caramelization to the fullest, I am not sure if I should use a Cantonese cooking term here, but they are very experienced cooks. If you need a good burger, this is place to go. Service: 10/10 Ambiance: 10/10, the restaurant is older but it is very clean Food: 10/10

    Nic & Jovon are super friendly! They been running this joint for decades! My second visit here and it's still as tasty & juicy as I remember! Worth our road trip down to OKC!

    Nic's is busy for a reason. I've been trying to eat here for years and I finally got to the other day. Nic, who works behind the counter taking orders, was great. The guy who was flipping the burgers was really great, too. The one thing I will complain about is the price. I know eating out can be expensive, but in my opinion, ordering a single patty burger, French fries and a water should not cost $20, which it cost me eating here (this did not include $5 tip.)

    The burgers are cooked right in front of you, the smell is intoxicating ... absolute perfection in taste

    Service was good, food was cooked fine and tasted well, however, it was $18.75 for one hamburger and fries, which is more than I expected.

    How much are their burger and fries?

    I believe it's around $11 without the drink. I think I paid around $25-$30 last time for two people for burgers, fries, and a drink each

    Where did they move to?

    They are at the same location. They opened a second location.

I read about them on wikipedia... and apparently Oklahoma was the first one to create them. they were made during the great depression, were the owner would mash onion with the beef patty to stretch out the meat.... and back then, burgers were 5 cents. Fast forward to almost 100 years later, my burger was about 11 bucks. Don't get me wrong, the burger was decently sized, but it was just alright. I mean, if i wanted to get an onion burger i could simply go to in n out and get a burger with grilled onions and raw onion as well. so, while the burgers were good, it didn't wow me and maybe it was too hyped up and it didn't live to its hype, is the reason i only gave it 3 stars. The fries on the other hand were great. The parking lot right in front is really small, but there are plenty of seats inside and outside.

    I originally left a mixed review for this spot, because nothing about what they called a "patty…read moremelt" actually tasted like one. Instead, it was a massive amount of bread loaded with an overwhelming heap of mustard--though even that wasn't as overpowering as the heavy grease and grill-funk aftertaste it left behind. I ended up throwing away the basket meal with more than half left. Luckily, the owner replied to my review to educate me that my perceived 1/3-pound patty was actually a 6-ounce patty. Clearly, I just failed to appreciate the massive 0.6-ounce difference in those measurements. Point well taken. Hats off, sir. I'll politely decline your offer to ask for you personally next time (trust me, I won't be back) so you can lecture me on which of your generous 6-ounce burgers I might actually like. Having spent 41 years on this planet navigating the burger wasteland unassisted so far, I'm optimistic I'll get the hang of it. If you could perhaps channel some of that energy into teaching the kids on staff, they could share your passion for aggressively explaining to patrons why they are wrong to call your product overpriced, inedible, and completely devoid of quality. Now that is the real community impact you are going for. I am overwhelmingly positive and forgiving in my reviews, but this is one of the rare exceptions where I dramatically underestimated how low a business's rating should actually go. If you want to pay an exorbitant price for a terrible burger, only to be told it was supposed to taste that bad on purpose, definitely give these guys a go. Thank you for sharing your unique business model with the class, and for giving me the clarity I needed to update this to the solid 1-star you deserved from the get-go!

    A New #1 Burger in OKC!…read more Our Burger Passport adventure brought us to Spark at Scissortail Park, and I think I may have found my new favorite burger in Oklahoma City! This was our first visit, and from the moment we took our first bite, I couldn't stop telling my wife how incredible these burgers were. I ordered the BLC Burger topped with pimento cheese, bacon, a crispy cheddar crust, pickles, and Prairie Ranch. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the crispy cheddar crust took it over the top. Outstanding! My wife, Lori, ordered the Spark Burger, swapping the American cheese for cheddar. She absolutely loved it, especially the fresh dill pickles that added the perfect crunch and flavor. The crinkle-cut fries deserve a shout-out, too. They were cooked just the way I like them--nice and crispy. I ordered the signature Pink Sauce on the side, and the garlic aioli was excellent. Before we left, I asked to speak with a manager--not because there was a problem, but because I wanted to compliment the team. Marisol was genuinely excited to hear how much we enjoyed our meal. She also told us about their limited-time Chicken Salad Sandwich, available through the end of the summer, and after this experience, I think we'll definitely be back to give it a try. Spark checks every box for me: outstanding burgers, perfectly cooked fries, a fun atmosphere, and a friendly, welcoming staff. If you're looking for one of the best burgers in Oklahoma City, put Spark on your list. This one earns an easy 5 stars from me.

Many unhoused people were hanging around the outside in the park areas, and I might have been wary of bringing a child but I was alone so not much of an issue. The burgers were good. The grease bomb kind of good where the unhealthy was a feature not a bug. They were sloppy, if I hadn't got them without the tomato it would have been a mess. I don't think the burger sauce they added was necessary and didn't really add to it. I think I'd get them plain next time and add my own ketchup and mustard. The one thing I really hated though was that they want your number to text you when the order was ready. Just call a number. It doesn't make your business better and I dislike them having my number.
