    Cool bar and restaurant across from Oklahoma University. The food is cheap, the staff is great, the view on the patio is awesome, and the food is really good. I got the burger with bacon and egg. It was tasty and cooked perfect. It came with a side. I chose tater tots. Good. My daughter got the chicken tenders. They were really good. I highly recommend The Porch.

    This is my new go to spot when visiting campus! The Porch restaurant is conveniently located on campus corner and features seating both upstairs, downstairs, and patio seating. The upstairs seating has a beautiful views of campus and is perfect for gameday drinks and food! Our server was very friendly and attentive. There is a selection of restaurant cocktails but there is also a full bar for whatever you would like to drink. Both the loaded nachos and the chicken strips were delicious. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anybody, especially those wanting to get together in groups/with friends!

    My friends and I had a great time eating lunch here! The food was excellent and not a bad price. Plus, there's a balcony with a lovely view of the OU campus.

    Just left here usually a fun time, friends and I always have good time...until tonight when my…read moresisters and I were trying to use the restroom as my sister sat down on the toilet the door got kicked in by two grown ass (40-50) women. One said "I know there are more stales in here open the fucking door" if you've been to the deli you would know there is only one toliet in the girls restroom. A grown male walked in to the restroom totally unprofessional and weird... The owner told us to get out obviously to de-escalate the situation this led to him telling us to get the fuck out as the bar was starting to close. We were just trying to tell him what happened as it was very uncomfortable, he then told us to use the mens restroom and it will be fine . If i were you i would avoid using the bathroom...because everyone felt like it was okay to watch you half naked/ felt in-tilted to kick the door open.

    In a bar with only drinks to serve, hitting the service level to achieve a reasonable review of…read moresuccess should be easier; however, the only thing easy about The Deli was leaving, never to return. While the list of things wrong with this bar is longer than the lines at the restroom, mostly caused by the breaks taken by the staff to visit the facilities every fifteen minutes, I'll try to keep the problems to the most egregious. First, the bartenders couldn't be bothered to take an order. If you were lucky enough to make eye contact with one of them between their continuous arguments with each other, you were met with an uncanny ability to either forget your order within seconds or walk back to your table only to find the order was wrong. The line in the bar was quite long, not because the bar was packed with patrons, but rather because you would have to place your order multiple times, or return because it was an errant attempt at your order. The line was so long in fact, that multiple fights broke out while in line either between staff and customers or amongst the patrons themselves. Overall I believe the reason this place even stays open is it's near OU campus and doesn't have to work too hard to take advantage of the occasional new student, over served future middle management cog, or some out of town parents trying a local place. Do better.
