This 20-seat restaurant serves a tasting menu that would properly rival any restaurant in a larger market. Eating there makes me feel proud of what Oklahoma Chefs and our locally grown produce and meats can achieve. It makes me full of possibility for what are city is capable of and breaths new hope into our growing culinary seen. If you eat out once a year eat here. Some of my highlights were a cream and mushroom tart with a luscious umami flavor and smooth texture in contrast to a perfectly crunchy tart. A seemingly simple dish of salted yogurt with carrots and herbs was real knockout dish. Home-raised bison with leaves over cream had a lot of classic oklahoma flavors presented in new light. The desserts Caramel, picked watermelon and truffle served as a sweet and satisfying ending to a wonderful experience. The cooks and staff at represent the Oklahoma I've come to know and love since moving here serving humble, thoughtful, artistic and enlightening food. I look forward to the next tasting menu, I get too experience from this truly unique restaurant. I am so happy this place is here. read more

This was a great culinary experience to try out! My cousin heard of this place last year, so took her for her birthday this year. I will say if you are a picky eater then this is not for you because you don't know what they will be serving you until they literally put the food in front of you and tell you what it is and what's all in it and how it is made. The staff was great! Very nice and easy to converse with! Definitely a great experience if you are willing to pay the price for it! read more

This is an experience-oriented type of place. I loved all of the ties to earthy, organic meals with delicious wine pairings. The staff was knowledgeable and guided us through our meal. The variation in the courses was exciting. read more

Pros: Everything but Cons: price. Terrific dinner experience, top to bottom! A wonderful space in a reinvigorated part of town. We enjoyed everything. Seriously. The ambiance was quite nice without being super fancy. It was very intimate without being cheesy. The lighting was perfect: dark-ish, but lights shining down onto the tabletop so you could really see your food. (And this is food you want to see-some is as beautiful as it is flavorful.) The music was perfectly energetic without being stupid high-energy or stupid-loud. We could smell a hint of smoke in the air from the wood-fired grill in the kitchen. The smell was not smokey; it was just enough to pique the imagination of what was going on in the kitchen. The kitchen is visible, but not loud. Right when we sat down, my wife and I felt immediately comfortable and conversation just began. It's a special place in this regard. We attended a planned beer-and-food event, with nonesuch doing their thang and Prairie Artisan Ales providing the beer pairings. I drink a lot of craft beer, so I was concerned that despite the high price point, they were just going to go to Byron's and grab stuff off the shelf. As though it were a dinner for beer beginners. I was wrong. I had three beers I had never had before from Prairie, one of which was not even in distribution yet (Era). So they scored on the beer selections-a tribute to the thoughtfulness of nonesuch. I uploaded photos of the food. The chefs bring the food out and explain what you're having. I felt like a judge on Top Chef. all of the food was wonderful. It was adventurous without being crazy stupid out there weird. Like, they know their market. Perfect for OKC: adventurous, outside the comfort zone, but not wacky. A foodie's delight. I won't explain all the dishes I had, but I did upload photos, along with a picture of the menu from our dinner. They change the menu near-constantly, based on the season and what is available. You don't get the menu until the end, so it's fun! You just can't wait for that next course to come out. Trust them. The only con: So, this is probably the most expensive meal I've ever had in Oklahoma City (we don't buy expensive wine, so it might not be that pricey to you, dear reader). But it was the most memorable. I want to go back, but it will be a while. Until then, I'll dream of it. read more

We dined at Nonesuch last evening and were blown away by the amount of effort they went to in creating visually stunning micro dishes. Unfortunately, most of the courses lacked depth of flavor and they were tiny. We felt like we spent way too much money for a tiny amount of food. We felt the need to have another meal immediately after leaving, which was more plentiful and flavorful. read more

This was a true culinary experience and a feast for the senses. I was worried about the hype and people saying "it is great" just because they were on that magazine, but this really was phenomenal. Unlike anything I have done before. I cannot wait for their reservations to open up for next season. I am definitely coming back. A suggestion for people going, I personally think you can get wine anywhere... I would suggest considering the non-alcoholic beverage option. The pairings are beyond interesting (and they'll give you plenty of water to quench your thirst if that's what your worries about). If you appreciate attention to detail, the complexity of subtle flavors masterly combined, and how they combine ingredients in a way you would Hebe never even fathomed, then you will enjoy Nonesuch. Eat lunch before going, and maybe a light snack. Do not ruin your palate eating before going here. But, do plan on eating something afterwards as you will not be full. Remember this is a tasting menu, so it is not designed to fill you up, but to tease and stimulate your palate. Take it all in, and savor every bite. Listen carefully to how they describe the courses, and ask as many questions as possible. Can't wait to go back (though, I'll literally have to) read more

Came years ago, and this place was fantastic! I couldn't wait to make another reservation when I came back to OKC. I should have saved my money. There is apparently a new chef, and he's only interested in saving money. The atmosphere is still the same, but that's where the similarities end. I paid for the 6 course with wine paring. The complimentary bites were the best, but everything else was very poor. Every course had vegetables only except for the main course, which was just a thin slice of bison steak on a big plate and nothing else to go with it. They served 2 dessert couses, and what really made me upset was the juice and cookies they served you. The wine paring was the most disappointing. You were only given 3 glasses of wine, and for $100, they were the poorest tasting pours I've ever had. The juice and cookie course took away from one of the wine parings that went with the course. The last dessert course was melted ice cream. I didn't even eat it. I got up and walked out. Save your time and money and go to Grey Sweater instead. It was a million times better, and I'm planning on going there again before I leave. read more

Great concept and amazing food presentation. At this 20 seat restaurant, you order an eight course tasting menu (or upsell for a larger number and wine pairings or kombucha pairings). My group chose the eight course menu. With a group of three, any more would be very difficult to hold a conversation as seating is at a bar. Staff told us that the menu changes monthly. We went at 6:30pm and noise level was perfect until about 7:45 when the table filled up with overlapping conversations and the kitchen noise increased. We were there until 8:30pm. My favorite was the noodle soup and the ice cream sandwich (first and last plates of the December 2017 eight course tasting menu). Word of warning to odor sensitive people: they use a wood burning stove without a hood. Also the overhead table lighting shines right into our eyes when we are listening to the chefs describe each of the plates. Minus a star because of these two drawbacks. A smoke-free environment and less harsh lighting would make it a sublime experience. read more

What an amazing experience!! The attention to detail. The perfection of the presentation. The extraordinary wine pairings! This is a really special restaurant. If you have the chance to go here- don't miss the opportunity. Every bite was so special. Thank you Nonesuch!! read more

So glad we have this culinary genius in OKC. Phenomenal! We enjoyed celebrating our daughter heading off to college with a very special experience at Nonesuch read more

Personally, I tried to book my next reservation while I was still there. Yes, it's expensive. Yes, every single bite will blow you away. The restaurant itself was fairly well hidden. No clear signage and the windows are dark. The decor is simple. Minimalist. Dress code is come as you are. Most people were wearing jeans. I did the non-alcoholic beverage pairing. It consisted mostly of different flavored Kombucha. There was also a soda and a horchata. Each beverage was for two courses. I was genuinely happy I didn't get the wine pairing!!! All the drinks were flavorful, intriguing and definitely complemented the dishes. One of the beverages DID taste like heavily salted mongolian mares milk.....but they can't all be gems right? The food was simply amazing. Each dish ranged from a single bite to about three bites however some courses were comprised of more than one dish. The amount of food was perfect. After ten courses I was quite pleasantly full. IF I had a critique I would say I missed having a seafood course!! Two courses of bison were offered. (A one bite tartare wrapped in a potato crisp. Incredibly flavorful, but the texture was a little off putting. And a medium rare sort of bison Wellington dish with a complex blueberry sauce). There was also BBQ quail. Other than that the dishes were largely vegetarian. However, Nonesuch will make you LOVE eating your veggies the way your mama never did!!! The only nod to seafood was the caviar atop the herbed waffle. Basically, every bite/sip counts. Every single bite has such amazing and complex flavors and is cooked perfectly. Nonesuch takes you on a culinary experience that redefines what truly great food should taste like. TREAT YOURSELF. Fork over your hard earned cash at least once. Close your eyes, and taste heaven a.k.a NONESUCH!! read more

Great tasting experience--especially with the wine pairings! We are so excited OKC has this kind of a menu--first of its kind! I am vegetarian & my husband is a carnivore and Nonesuch was able to accommodate my dietary requests with minimal changes to the experience. The food was sensational--taste, texture, smell were amazingly incorporated. The wine pairings went well with the courses & allowed me to try new wines I wouldn't typically order. The only down side was both of us were still hungry after the 11 courses--recommend appetizers before you go! We plan to go back in the winter to try another menu! read more

Amazing food. Great wine pairing. Surprising dishes. This is a Michelin Star worthy restaurant in downtown OKC.

It's been weeks since my meal here, but for some reason I've had a hard time writing this review. Nonesuch is a serious place, and they are serious about what they do. It felt right to let the experience roll around in my head a little before reviewing, since they obviously put a lot of thought into my meal. First off, to address the elephant in the room: yes, this meal was very expensive. Add that to the reputations of the owners and staff, and expectations were about as high as can be. The experience started just after I made the reservation when I was contacted so they could get my dietary restrictions as well as any other preferences. They were delighted to hear I would be there with my wife to celebrate her birthday, and promised they would help make the evening memorable. Upon our arrival, I was immersed in the atmosphere. My wife called it modern, I called it spartan, but it was clear that we had entered a temple of haute cuisine. Decorating choices seemed to be made with one thought in mind: how do we get these people to stop what they are doing for a while and focus on the food? Front of house staff was friendly and helpful - smiles all around without pretension so we immediately felt comfortable. There aren't many seats in the restaurant - it's intimate, and it feels a bit like you and the other guests are seated on the other side of a U-shaped bar from the benevolent clergy that will be performing the rites. We were all there for one reason, but I was shocked to see a customer staring at his phone while eating a very delicate buttermilk gelato. Sacrilege! The meal kicked off as soon as we sat down. We were served our first wine pairing, and after asking a question about the grower champagne, I was a little disappointed that the bartender wasn't more versed in the wines on offer and didn't seem particularly interested in discussing them. No big deal though, the food started coming out and before long I was swept up in the meal. I won't list out every course, but I'll stick to the general feel. The food was very deliberate - it seemed like someone had agonized over the details of each dish. The dishes were nuanced, with a chorus of ingredients arranged to emulate the vision of the creator. I didn't always agree with the choices, but the food was confident. It seemed like the chef had a singular idea that was then transferred to the plate. The execution was flawless, and the technical skill of the kitchen staff shone through. The flavors were somehow wild but restrained at the same time. It didn't seem as if there were any limits to the flavor combinations, but each dish was tight and subtle. I don't have much experience with tasting menus like this one, but to me, the pace and order of the dishes were perfect. Each dish was unique, and it felt like I was being taken on a culinary journey into lands I didn't know existed. Even if I didn't like every dish that came out, each was cohesive and immersive, drawing me in to take another bite. One last feat of attention to detail was saved for the end: my wife was served an exceptional birthday dessert with her name on it. It wasn't a huge thing, but it was the perfect small, simple gesture to end the evening. Now that I have some perspective on the meal, I feel like every one of the thousands of perfect, small, simple things they do are what makes this place great. My advice: bring an open mind and go check out what's going on here. read more

Sleek bar dining area does not over shadow the multi course meal that awaits. Every dish was creative and well executed with a variety of local ingredients.

The reputation of Nonesuch speaks for itself, but it's Yelp, so I'll add a few thoughts. My husband took me to Nonesuch for my birthday dinner, and the food was incredible. He ordered the wine pairing, which I can't recommend enough. The restaurant is intimate and makes you want to put your phone away so you can take it all in. We got to know the couples seated to our left and right because everyone sits at a bar top. Our server walked us through the meal, and we stared into the kitchen, as the chef carefully crafted each course. Take your time when you go to Nonesuch. There were people that came in, ate quickly, and left, but that just doesn't seem like it gives this meal the time and attention it deserves. Follow the restaurant on Instagram for some delicious eye candy. read more

Decided to try this place after I saw it won some national awards. It's nestled near downtown OKC right next door to Ludivine. Might need to dig deeper in your pockets for this restaurant, but your tastebuds will thank you later. These excellent chefs and wait staff here truly take you for a ride. The reservations have to be made months in advance, make sure you show up on time! The food was delicious and the waiters were more than willing to explain what was on your plate. There are wine pairing options with the various plates as well but it costs extra. I opted for just a bottle of champagne. There's not really much to compare this place to since almost every menu item was a first to me. I was impressed with the natural seasonal menu. All the items/ingredients were local which is always a plus too! read more

Probably one of the best restaurant experiences I have had in my life (and that says a lot, I have been to so many places). The 12 course option with the wine pairing has left me mesmerized and longing for another go. Be prepared to pay a hefty ticket for this exclusive experience, but I promise you it will be unforgettable and delightful. Definitely a place for adventurous foodies, but don't take my word for it just go and see for yourself! read more

I'm so happy I finally got to try this place! I was a little nervous that it wouldn't live up to all the hype, but it 100% did. I highly recommend doing a drink pairing, either alcoholic or non-alcoholic. My friend & I did non-alcoholic and we were thrilled with all of the pairings. All of the dishes were wonderful, though we did have our favorites. The staff is friendly and helpful and the overall atmosphere is very nice. Also, I'm surprised to say that my friend and I were both quite full at the end of our meal! We were initially worried that the small (but tasty) portions would leave us hungry, but that wasn't the case at all. The amount of effort put into the food and the entire experience is clear. read more

Wow. Ian, Kiki, and Jeremey really made this a special place. Celebrated an anniversary here and was not let down. The food started off amazing and just kept getting better.

Nonesuch represents the best of Oklahoma City by not only showcasing the culinary talent we have here but by combining ingenuity with local ingredients and flavors you may not expect in the middle of America. The state motto is "labor omnia vincit" or labor conquers all and it is easy to appreciate the hard work these chefs have put in to create a remarkable experience. I have been to Nonesuch before and the reality is that most Oklahomans will not come here based on the price point alone. Since you purchase tickets for a pre-planned meal you will know upfront your total cost, while having the choice of a wine pairing with gratuity already being included, so you will not have to worry about a bill at the end of the evening. While guests are served food and drinks I would not consider this a traditional restaurant. At maximum capacity it only has 22 seats and during Covid times it seems they intentionally leave at least one chair between parties which provides an extremely intimate setting between you and your servers. We attended during October 2020 as the weather was beginning to change and the fall flavors came bursting through. One of the most surprisingly enjoyable dishes was the Pumpkin with Chicken Demi Glace, which had many layers of texture almost like a pastry but with savory flavors and a hint of sweetness. The truth is as their menu changes frequently the likelihood of your tasting being the same is highly improbable, but I assure you the level of attention to detail at this establishment is what will make you want to return. We appreciated that all staff were wearing masks and they performed temperature checks when you arrive. In general, the servers are very knowledgeable and friendly and we had a wonderful time allowing them to explain each course. I hope you'll consider Nonesuch as a future destination for perhaps a special occasion or as we did which was a necessary break from the monotony of eight months of quarantine. read more

I'm sure it's exciting that okc has a tasting menu style place. It's just a shame that it's not a good one. Which kind of make sense. The food is subpar at best. There is very little creativity, and actually less flavor. The only scintilla of creativity to this place is the concept...which of course is a concept that has existed for longer than I've been alive. read more

My all time favorite restaurant in Okc. Hear me now. Believe me later. Eat here, eat here often. I cannot believe we have such a world class wonderful restaurant right here under our noses. Almost all ingredients are hand foraged. In house aging of garlic and Batchelor buttons. Gives farm to table new meaning. Meal is approximately 12 courses and lasts a couple of hours, at least. Go with an open mind and come away as an apostle. read more

IT'S WORTH IT! I'm not going into the details of each dish, so you can experience it for yourself. Each course is explained as its brought out and you don't see a physical menu until after all 12 courses are complete. The only thing I wish I had done differently is the premium wine pairing, which I will do next time. Almost everyone sitting at the 20 seat table arrives at different times so most people are on a different course schedule than you. It's a very interesting concept with excellent flavors. Some people would describe me as a picky eater but I ate and loved almost every single thing in front of me. I can't wait to return when the seasonal menu changes for another nonesuch food experience. read more

A true experience! Who knows what will be on the menu but perhaps the finest dining experience in Oklahoma.

I was lucky enough to have a chance at Nonesuch before the #1 designation was given and a chance at the table became much more difficult to come by! Every bite was as delicious as it was thoughtfully and beautifully put together. They were even about to accommodate my being a pescetarian (although I wish I ate meat that night by how good it all looked.) The service was perfect, the wine pairings were on point, and I had a hard time focusing on my friends eating with me because the whole place was so well decorated. My favorite thing was that they took the time to really explain the process behind each piece of food. It made everything taste that much better knowing how much time and care went into every bite. If you are what you eat... We were gorgeous, exotic, and well paired with our drinks last night. read more

I'm so disappointed. I thought we were going for a dinner . We barely got any food . I get the concept of small bites or a tasting experience but either they needed to serve more courses or increase the quantity of food per serving . I like to come back full when I go to eat ! Also we made the mistake of choosing non alcoholic pairing . I kid you not . They paired only 3 of our courses . And they repeated one of the pairings ! So don't bother if you am have special requirements . We had to wait 15 minutes for each course . Ridiculous. Never going back read more

This restaurant is a mind-trick. After an hour of incredible food and service, I was really confused about walking back into Oklahoma City streets. It feels like NY or LA or Seattle, not the middle. Lemme explain. For starters, only 20 seats in the house. All along a u-shaped bar. The options for dinner are like, a 6 course meal or a 9. And with or without a wine pairing. That's it. Now prepare for the show! We went with some foodie friends of ours and had such a fun experience through each dish. I don't even want to get too specific because it might ruin yours and I think they change the menu quite frequently. So much of the ingredients are super local, so some days they might have a random item they wanna get out. I will say, keep an open mind. Some dishes are really out there and might not be a hit, but the hits will come. My advice: come after 9 pm for a discounted price and special treatment. Come hungry. Come open. Come with friends who would enjoy a different experience. Also, the actual dishes they use are gorgeous!! read more

Our experience at this restaurant was absolutely horrible. The food was not enjoyable and did not taste good, but one single course of the many served. One! And my other three guests were all in agreement. The wines that were paired were terrible choices for what was being served. I was astonished. I travel all around the world and was so excited that OKC of all places would introduce such a great concept. Well that's all they've got for you, a great concept. The food was terrible. The wine pairing was a joke (and very stingy pours for what you pay) and above all....the service was snobby, pompous and totally unfriendly, like we were a bother for even showing up. Completely appalled with the whole experience...especially when it costs way too much for what you actually get. Total joke. I'm so dismayed, in every way, about this place. Do not waste your money, unless you want to overpay for aweful, tiny bites of food that may look pretty. Do not waste your money on the wine pairing. It does not pair well at all with what you'll be eating, unless you want something to get you tipsy so the food will taste a bit better. But it certainly won't make the nasty, arrogant wait staff any nicer or attentive. Do not waste your time! Do not waste your money! I had high hopes. read more

I really don't get it. I've had tasting meals like this across the country that have been fabulous. Here... Not so much. Do they source great local ingredients? Yes. Is the food presented beautifully? Yes. Does it taste good? No. I can't imagine spending all that time making sauces, foams, emulsions, etc to have them taste like absolutely nothing. The food is just bland across the board. Not once, not twice, but three different visits all resulted in the same thing. We left disappointed and hungry. Don't get me wrong, it's a really fun and interesting experience, but don't expect to leave with a satisfied pallet or belly. I think all the glowing reviews are from people in Oklahoma who have never experienced dining like this anywhere else and just don't know the difference. read more

Wow! This is one of the best tasting menus I have had in a long time. I haven't seen presentations like this in a very long time. The food was amazing, especially paired with their wines. And the staff was a joy to be around as well. I highly recommend you going there read more

Worth it just for the experience!! The staff is very attentive and helpful, and I loved the fact that the chefs served each course and explained what each dish was.

Nonesuch - Fifth course: Tartlet filled with soft scrambled eggs and black garlic (OUR FAVORITE!) - New American Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

This is a place to eat food, and I intend to speak to that part of it, but I also want to comment on how amazing, beautiful, welcoming, and interesting the place itself is. The room is gorgeous. It's intimate size, the bar counter, the chairs, the black and blank walls, the perfect lighting, the visual access to the kitchen, the colorful food pickling in jars on the shelves, the persimmon drying on twine hanging from the rafters, the utensils and plates (all one of a kind and made locally). It's evident that the chefs played the major role in the design and detail. I love it. (Props to Common Works Architects for its contribution to the design.) The chefs at nonesuch give the ingredients they use and the food they make a level of thought, care, and attention that I did not know could be given to food. Each of the chefs takes the opportunity to present one or more courses to each of the diners and describe what is being served. Each wine is hand picked to pair with certain courses. Each non-alcoholic drink is painstakingly made and hand picked to pair with certain courses. Every bite I ate and liquid I drank was brand new to me. It was not intimating, but rather incomparable: beautiful, exciting, and delicious. It was freeing to not have to choose what to order, and simply eat what was made for me. I thoroughly enjoyed every bite of nonesuch's beautiful food. I highly recommend carving out an evening to spend here. read more

We were given gift cards about a year ago that we were told were good for a meal for two at nonesuch. Not long after they got their big national press and the place became the hottest of hot stuff. We planned to use the cards but were not just dying to go, so we did not keep close tabs on when they were open for reservations, which apparently are booked out far in advance and only open from time to time. Fast forward to very recently. We learned, pretty randomly, that nonesuch had just opened a 3 month block of reservations, so we decided to finally book and enjoy our meals. To even make the reservation now required pre-payment for the meal. My wife e-mailed the restaurant explaining that we had gift cards for the meal. To their credit, they replied promptly. Much to their detriment they informed us they no longer honor their gift cards. The meal could not be paid for with the cards, but drinks and "extras" could be purchased with funds on the cards. Well, being non-drinkers, that's pretty much the same as giving us the ol' bird. There are few worse sins a business can commit then to collect money then refuse the promised services. As such, beyond the money they've pilfered from our associate who bought the gift cards, this place will never see a penny of my money. This won't hurt them while they're the cool kids on the block, and may never hurt them at all. But what goes around tends to come around. Perhaps they make glorious, incredibly-tiny food, but their business ethics are trash, and as such I wish only for their failure. read more

Wonderful. Unique. One of the best food adventures I have ever been on. Yes it is pricey but worth every dollar. Every dish was excellent.
