This is my kind of place; Urban BBQ!…read moreI am from out of time and I love me a good brisket. I absolutly figue Oklahoma has got to know BBQ! My friend suggested this place and specially burnt ends- which Ive never had before. Well this place did not disappoint. Its five star baby! I ended up getting a choose 2 plate which includes 2 meats and 2 sides. I did have the burnt ends and turkey; brussel sprouts with carrots and fried okra. Everything was delicious, the brussel sprouts had no bacon (which is plus for me). The one and only thing I would say is a little more flavor on the fries okra... but thats just me. Put some salt on it a keep it moving. Now they had some corn muffins that were good but huney let me tell you about the butter with the jabanero jam! Wow, wow, wow! The service was great from everyone but special shout out to Matt who was patient and kind even tho we were one of those annoying people who came in less than an hour before close. The manager came by and greated everyone. We really wanted to meet the chef and pay our complements but he was probably ready to go since we were there late. Looks like they have outdoor seating as well. If I lived here- this would deffinately be my go to.

Good thing for me, they are open on Sundays to take all my money (Let's be honest, I was throwing it at them). Okay, fine, I'll talk about the food... YUMMMM. Ordered the brisket & rib combo plate. Meat was falling off the bones and flavored to perfection. Comes with two sides - I got the above mentioned jalapeño corn bread & greens beans. Came with an unapologetically absurd amount of butter - aww, they know my love language. My favorite part is the chewy, sweet pieces of corn they add to the batter. Reminds me of Jiffy... IYKYK. Now the sauce - IMO Texas bbq style. Bold, red and perfect balance of sweet & tang. They allow 2 choices so I selected spicy and regular. Both highly recommended. Lastly, I tacked on a side of their green cabbage slaw; it couldn't be skipped. It indeed is green, has a great crunch and not too creamy. Overall - fantastic flavor, quick service & quality ingredients. My brother is a huge fan of ribs so you better believe I texted him pics to bait him into visiting soon. I ordered takeout this time but we'll visit the restaurant when he comes to town!

It was about 1 p.m. Last Monday and they still had a good crowd and it became busier while we were there. They have been in business for 23 years, having first opened its doors in 2003. Located at 610 Northeast 50th Street in a non- descript building. The interior is casual and pays tribute to the history of OU and OSU along with Oklahoma's rich Indian history. They have a lovely, very large outside patio with huge fireplace that in the fall will be spectacular. The menu is on the wall when you come and you place your order with the hostess, pay, and they bring it to you. I ordered the bolona sandwich with fried Okra. Jan ordered "Jeff's Favorite". A sandwich with sliced brisket and a hot link topped with cole slaw. She had them put the cole slaw on the side. As her side she ordered fried okra. Both sandwiches were very good. It was a good lunch and Jan was a happy camper.

Thank you for your amazing hospitality…read more I won't say when we came but I want to personally thank the staff that included management during our visit. I'm sorry I had not planned for lunch today but should have. I appreciate your kindness to an old former city resident. What a thrill to experience the view and elevator trip. Thank you!

There are meals, there are experiences, and then there are evenings at Vast that feel less like…read moredinner and more like an awakening. Perched above Oklahoma City like a temple dedicated to excess and indulgence, Vast delivered a culinary performance so extraordinary that I briefly forgot every other steak I have ever eaten. The evening began with the Porn Star Martini, a dangerously seductive masterpiece that arrived shimmering with confidence. Bright, tropical, and impossibly smooth, it tasted like luxury had decided to become a cocktail. Then came the star of the evening: the 8 oz LINZ Heritage Angus Filet Mignon. To call it tender would be an insult. This steak surrendered to the knife with the resistance of warm butter and practically dissolved upon contact with my tongue. Rich, deeply flavorful, and executed with surgical precision, it was the kind of steak that makes you question every life choice that led you to eat lesser beef. The Vast potatoes were decadence incarnate, creamy, velvety, and unapologetically indulgent, while the asparagus provided the perfect green counterpoint to an otherwise gloriously excessive feast. As if the universe wasn't showing off enough, the meal was accompanied by a glass of Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon. Bold, velvety, and dripping with dark fruit and sophistication, it wrapped itself around every bite of filet like a velvet curtain closing on a Broadway finale. The view stretched endlessly across Oklahoma City, but by the second bite of steak, I honestly stopped looking. Vast had managed the impossible: it created something more captivating than the skyline itself. Five stars feels inadequate. This wasn't dinner. This was theater. This was poetry. This was a full-blown gastronomic fever dream from which I never wish to awaken.

I'll be thinking about this place for a very long time. Their baked beans, chef's kiss. The sausage…read morelinks, wow! The brisket, HOLY MOLEY. If I could have seconds, I'd plow thru it and have thirds. Remember the Hobbits and second breakfast? Yeah, I'd be having that and second lunch. Just line up the brisket and beans. The flavor is out of this world. Walking in, and being greeted by the smokers and cooks added to the experience. My senses were primed from the moment I stepped in. But even then, I STILL wasn't mentally prepared for the mind-blowing flavor that was to come. The mouthwatering brisket was done to perfection, juicy and tender. My taste buds could barely comprehend how blessed they were to taste beautifully done OKC BBQ. The links were full of smokey flavor and paired well with the sauces. Then finally, the slaw cuts thru it all to reset for the next bite. Rinse and repeat. Until finished. And until next time when I have room again. They're famous for what they do, and it's well deserved. 100% a future stop for whenever I come around.

I did not ask about a booster however. Our server gave us the rundown of the dishes and the popular ones and the portion sizes so we were aware. We ordered a variety of dishes and it came out fairly quickly. Pancake fritter: it's Dutch pancake style so the kids weren't really into it but it was delicious with the berries and the lemon curd for the adults! Chicken and waffle: the chicken was crispy and I thought slightly too dry but the kids loved it with the waffle which was really fluffy! Kids breakfast platter: straightforward dish with scrambled eggs, half of a waffle, some bacon. Breakfast sandwich: they piled on the ham so I thought it was a tad too salty but flavor and texture wise very good. Eggs Benedict: we opted for the smoked salmon and I highly recommend! Eggs poached perfectly and their hollandaise sauce was sooooo good. Quiche Lorraine: this was the star. It stood out because they added caramelized onions I think. It was the best quiche Lorraine I've ever had and I've had my fair share! Overall, the brunch is a solid choice and the price was very reasonable. I plan to come again. Also if you get too full you can go to trader Joe across the parking lot and walk it off :)

However, I am really tired of their inconsistent approach to requiring identification when ordering alcohol. A few years ago we were there for dinner and we ordered wine. They asked for my DL and I produced it. They asked for my wife's and she didn't have it with her. When we go out she does not take a purse, wallet or phone. So they would not serve her. We left. Then a few years go by and they never ask for ID. Then the next time they want ID. Sometimes they ask for ID, sometimes they don't, and we are well beyond that time in our life where anyone would question whether we are 21. This is the only restrauant, anywhere we have had the ID problem for my wife. Maybe Odell's law is helping the situation. With respect to food and service for this meal it was all very good. They may have the best fish and chips in OKC.

This place isn't your typical brunch destination at first glance, but that actually made me even more interested in giving it a try. Parking is street parking only. It is not the worst situation, but depending on the time of day you might need to drive around a little before finding an open spot. It is manageable, just don't expect to pull right up to the door unless you get lucky. Once we walked inside, my party was greeted almost immediately. We were seated quickly, and the space had a warm, inviting feel. It struck a nice balance between classic and modern, almost like a hidden gem that still has a polished, slightly upscale atmosphere. It felt familiar and comfortable, but still special enough for a weekend brunch. Our server was friendly and attentive. He checked on us several times, but always timed it well so it never felt like he was interrupting the conversation or the flow of the meal. I ordered the Okie Breakfast along with the Hot Stack Waffles. The standout item on the plate was the soft scrambled eggs. I usually don't think too much about restaurant eggs one way or the other, but these were genuinely delicious, even without cheese. They were creamy, flavorful, and cooked exactly right. Honestly, I don't think I've had scrambled eggs at a restaurant this good before. The brunch potatoes were equally impressive, seasoned well and cooked to that perfect balance of crispy edges and soft centers. The bacon and sausage didn't quite hit the same level for me. They were fine, but not memorable. The bacon could have used a little more time on the grill to give it a crispier texture instead of the softer bite it had. The sausage links were acceptable but didn't add anything special to the dish. They felt more like standard breakfast sausage rather than something that elevates the plate. I was really looking forward to the bacon biscuits and gravy, especially since most places serve it with sausage gravy instead. Unfortunately, this part of the meal fell short. The biscuits were quite thick, and the gravy itself felt a little too light. I think the dish would have tasted much better if the biscuits had been split open, buttered, and had the gravy poured over both halves so the flavor could soak in. Instead, it leaned on the dry side, even though there was gravy on the plate. As for the Hot Stack Waffles, they surprised me. The first few bites were absolutely delicious, but after that I noticed a caramelization on the outside that made them extremely sweet. It almost tasted like candy, which gave me a bit of a sugar overload. Without syrup, the sweetness was already intense, and with syrup it became too much for my taste. The texture was nice and smooth, but the sweetness was stronger than what I usually look for in waffles. Drinks were exactly what you'd expect. It's hard to go wrong with champagne and juice, and they were simple, refreshing, and enjoyable. Overall, I had a nice experience. The service was good, the environment felt comfortable, and there were definitely some standout parts of the meal, especially the eggs and potatoes. I'm not sure if I would go out of my way to return during my next visit to Oklahoma City, but I do think it is worth trying at least once if you are local or nearby. There is potential here, and depending on what you order, you might walk away very happy.
