    Great cafeteria style restaurant inside the Devon building which has sleek, modern, environmentally friendly interior design. The staff is friendly, the food is fresh and there's a great selection to choose from - sushi, sandwiches, noodles, protein, salad bar. I got the salmon dish last time with side dishes.

    Very good. $10 plus tax.

    I am not that reviewer who gives 5 stars away like jolly ranchers. I just wanted something healthy since I was in Oklahoma City for a short time. I am a fan. The Lady Executive Chef was so kind and she explained to me how it worked. When I got in line for Salmon, the big chef was so cheery and friendly. What's going on here? It's so awesome. Food was excellent. I loved the green beans and cauliflower. $10 plus tax. I cannot wait to dine here again.

    I am at a loss for words. I have lived in Oklahoma City all my life and started working downtown before I could drive. This restaurant, much like the building in which it lives, is a game changer for Downtown OKC employees. I worked in the First National Center (FNC) for seven years. The closest, fastest, cheapest options, were national sandwich chains and after so much processed meat, sometimes it was better to just not eat lunch. Kashi Go Lean bars became my go to. Some great little local spots were in the surrounding buildings, but you can only drink so many smoothies and eat so much chicken salad. And I love me some Ken (owner of the Chinese buffet in FNC- big ups, Ken!), but you can't get Chinese buffet on the daily, no matter how much you think it calls your name. So back to Nebu: Do this math: for around $7, you can have your pick of sandwiches, salads, wraps, soups, sushi, or one of four or five daily specials. I think between the regular options and the specials, if you worked in this building and chose to eat here on the daily, you could have something different every day, all year. I posted a bunch of pictures because it literally has to be seen to be believed. I had the soba noodles in a miso broth. I got to pick from chicken, shrimp, tofu or a combo. Broccoli, asparagus, tobiko, peppers, carrots, onions, mushrooms and more could be added, as many as you wanted, for the same price. Which (with tax) came to $6.88. I had a (free) cucumber water, but had about 100 different teas, waters and natural sodas to choose from. The meal itself was fantastic, as my lunchmate can attest because I ate with so much gusto I ended up with soup all over me and really did not care. I've eaten in one of the cafeterias at Microsoft, and I can tell you that this is so much better it is difficult to compare the two. I plan to work here from time to time, so let me know if you want to try it. They'll probably just think I actually work in Devon Tower!

    How can I explain Nebu? It's like an adult cafeteria. It's located in the Devon building and you really can't miss it once you enter the building. Nebu is open to the public, not just for the Devon employees. I had a friend that assumed that the cafeteria was just specifically for the Devon employees. They're only open for breakfast and lunch, providing daily specials. You can find the specials on their website, but if you don't want their daily special, they also have a lot of other options. I applaud them for having such a fantastic salad bar! That's another thing, if you're looking for a healthy meal, Nebu has that!! A tad bit pricey, but that's it.

    In downtown OKC for a meeting or jury duty try out Nebu for lunch. A full buffet and salad bar with a relaxing outdoor seating allows you to getaway with ease from whatever brings you to the area.

    Cool adult cafeteria! There are several options to choose from I grabbed salmon with veggies and cous cous. Plenty of seating and outdoor seating great for a relaxing lunch break!

    Salmon with chimichurri sauce, rosemary white beans, and green beans.

    I LOVE Nebu. Seriously. I can walk there and eat lunch with time to spare. They're friendly, and the options and variety is just incredible. I always get the salmon because honestly, they're one of the few places in OKC that makes a decent piece of salmon. The food is very reasonably priced and absolutely delicious.

    Plenty of delicious and healthy options but it can be expensive at times, so beware. I go there weekly for lunch, and there's plenty of unique and tasty dishes but the salmon, salad bar & BBQ offerings tend to be my favorite. It can be a bit crowded at times but the lines move quickly.

    Before a single dish arrived, this restaurant had already won me over starting with the air itself…read more Walking in, I was met with a clean, refined fragrance that perfectly matched the room's energy, upscale without being cold, polished without being pretentious. The kind of place that knows exactly what it is. The hospitality was exceptional. The host made me feel genuinely welcomed, and my server was knowledgeable, warm, and clearly passionate about the chef and the menu. Not a rehearsed performance, real enthusiasm. That's rare. I ordered the chef's signature: sea bass with black rice. The fish was perfectly executed, delicate, flaky, with a sear that gave the skin just the right amount of texture. The black rice was earthy and dramatic, the ideal counterpoint. Every element on that plate had a reason to be there. Some restaurants impress you. This one made me feel like I was exactly where I was supposed to be. Come for the sea bass. You'll be back for everything else. 10/10 -- Return without hesitation.

    To be honest, really disappointed. When we walked in, staff was so friendly, the place is…read morebeautiful, and the ambiance is great. But the food was really subpar. I got the tomato pasta which ended up being a weird collection of pasta, tomatoes, olives, and edamame that frankly didn't blend well. My fiancee got a strip steak and it was undercooked and tough to chew. The mushrooms, brussels and tiramisu were all good however. Our server was very kind but they seemed understaffed so service was slow. Overall, the food was definitely not worth the price, and I don't think we will return.

    The service here was amazing! We didn't have a reservation unlike the people before us and they…read moreseated them promptly and were able to accommodate our party as well. The food and drinks were top notch and the service was superb. 10/10 would recommend!

    Just don't go here…read more I've lived here for 5 years and by far the worst restaurant experience I have had in Oklahoma, and if you see my other reviews I'm pretty forgiving and tend to give spots the benefit of the doubt. This is a place worth an absolute flaming of a review.... But they already wasted enough of my time and energy today so I'll just summarize. No management on scene, no hostess, one server, two bartenders and a restaurant at 50% capacity on Mother's Day at 1 p.m. From walking in to having our orders taken, 30 minutes. 45 minutes later our order of roasted vegetable salad, steak eggs Benedict, and sourdough toast arrived. Salad was very well burnt but my mom was trying to be nice and didn't want to walk out. Eggs Benedict came out with two eggs boiled through, a hollandaise sauce with a sour smell and cold steak. I didn't eat it and no one seemed to notice, had it removed from my bill easy enough, but again zero F's given and no management showed daylight. Wife's toast actually arrived 5 minutes after the 'rest' of the food and the only thing hot and delicious. Toast here is $11, so there's that. No one cares here. From the health violations and poor food safety I saw in the kitchen, the multiple tables I witnessed sending back food to the multiple parties puzzled as to why they weren't being sat or once they were entirely ignored... it was so wildly bad I was embarrassed for everyone else having the same experience. Again, don't go.

I was delighted to find out that our hotel was only 2 miles from this highly acclaimed restaurant. Upon entering, I immediately felt the welcoming atmosphere. We were warmly greeted by the host. The inside is lovely, modern and well laid out. It's perfect for date night or hanging with friends. The host chatted with us, explained the restaurant concept, and answered all my questions. We got the Baked Chèvre for our appetizer. It was layered with flavor and a most delicious and perfect bite for a cold evening. My entree was the Rainbow Trout. The fish had crispy skin and was moist, flaky, and well seasoned. The broad bean mixture served with it was equally delicious. The hubby had Honey Roasted Lavender Chicken which he declared to be one of the best chicken dishes he's ever had. He even raved over the vegetables that came with it. Of course I also had to try dessert. I loved my warm spice cake with a scoop of ice cream and swirls of buttery caramel rum sauce. The cake was so moist and paired perfectly with the sauce and ice cream. Our wait staff was friendly and professional. I forgot to jot down names so I could give them a shout out. Excellent staff is always a part of an excellent dining experience. This was just a delightful experience. The host even gave us the name of some nearby live music venues that we enjoyed later that evening. We will certainly return here the next time we are in OKC. If you are ever in the city, make a reservation and stop by for a fabulous experience.

    This is a nice place for a happy hour with friends or colleagues. The bartender didn't not pay too…read moremuch attention to me even though I was the only person at the bar. The food and beverages were on point. To top it off, the happy hour prices are reasonable.

    So delicious! Food…read more- all were very good! - Dips and Spreads | bread was soft, fluffy, hot, and delish - Nashville Hot Chicken | chicken was VERY moist and the outside was crispy it had the perfect balance with the cole slaw. To me it was not spicy... I would have like more spicy heat. Overall, delicious! - Hot Rod Pizza | amazing flavor combination... crust sauce and toppings were all very yummy. Was good hot and even better the next day cold Service was great - friendly and upbeat staff. Large and lively establishment - I love how they had The Princess Bride playing on the big screen (muted). Definitely a good spot for groups. It was a little loud... so be prepared to compete with the crowd when having a conversation. Would I go back? Yes! So much more yumminess to try!

    The place was pretty packed when we arrived, but we got a table faster than I expected…read more I went with the butter chicken pizza mostly out of curiosity. Honestly, I wasn't convinced that combo was going to work, but it did. The crust held up well and the toppings felt balanced, nothing was overpowering anything else. We also got the dips and spreads platter to share, and the warm bread with the pimento cheese went fast. Like, everyone kept going back for it without really saying anything. The server was good. Checked on us a few times without hovering, which I appreciated, especially since the restaurant was slammed that night. Food came out at a reasonable pace given how busy it was.
