    The Establishment.
    Gianni B.

    The Lokal was an awesome visit... Full bar, plenty of televisions, a wonderful menu that makes you feel like you're eating in Oklahoma! The bartenders were great. The white staff was friendly, and the ambience was cool with the giant OU logo in the center of the room above the bar. I'm excited for my next opportunity to visit this establishment.

    BBQ Cheddar Burger

    My son and I were in Norman for a quick weekend visit and stopped at Lokal for dinner. We went about 7pm and assumed they were on a waiting list, so we got in line on their website before we got there (every place should do this IMO). We were greeted promptly and only had to wait about 10 minutes for a table. Our server was very sweet and made some recommendations. We started with the Lokal Sampler appetizer, which was great. We both had burgers (Guacamole Bacon and BBQ Cheddar) and they were both awesome. Really cool place with a cool vibe. Highly recommend it.

    Fried deviled eggs with bacon and Sriracha

    I cannot believe this place isn't packed DAILY! I've been patronizing this chain in Yukon and Mustang for years and was SO excited to have one near work in Norman! The food is always superb, the staff are nothing short of amazing and the restaurant is beautiful! The food portions are always more than I can eat. The fried green tomatoes have a choke hold on me, they are beyond delicious. The chicken as well as the sweet potato fries never disappoint, and that chicken "strip" is GIANT. The fried deviled eggs do not come with bacon and Sriracha but it elevated this dish to epic levels, so please ask for it. Also, if you've never craved a salad, you should have the Lokal salad. Sublime, it's so fresh and the chicken is so flavorful. You have GOT to try this restaurant!

    Pickle fries

    The pickle fries were so amazing and the customer service was great. Tried other dishes too but the highlight was definitely the pickle fries with the ranch sauce

    We have been to The Lokal in Yukon and Mustang and this one has been just as great if not better! Service was very friendly, Happy Hour was fantastic, food was delicious and management was very attentive! Highly recommend! Ambiance is so fun!

    The Okie Burger with French fries.

    Remember when your dad used to make you the perfect burger, that was flame grilled and tasted like he loved you? You can relive that moment by going to Lokal Norman on Main Street. The new restaurant is impeccably designed (including beautiful photoscapes of our city on the East wall) and delivers great grill in the form of a huge burger that is both fun to look at and even better to devour! Take your friends, family and out-of-town guests to Lokal and show them we know how to dine!

    Bison meatloaf
    Monica R.

    Nice casual atmosphere! There is a decent well lit bar. Our server was very very knowledgeable and suggested several different items from the menu. I had the bison meatloaf and mashed potatoes. It was very tasty! The bacon it was wrapped in added a nice smokey flavor. The mashed potatoes were lumpy style and very buttery! The baked mac and cheese was alright. There was no hint of velveeta which is a plus for me.

    The chicken sandwich and the burger are the EXACT same besides the part where one is chicken and one is beef and they are both OK at best.

    I had the patty melt, which was really good. Pretty typical higher-end bar and grill, didn't blow me away but I'd definitely try it again

    I came here for an EDM night. I'd been complaining that there is nothing going on in Norman, so I…read morewas thrilled when I heard about this. I had driven by Opolis many times, but had avoided the bar scene because I wasn't keen on running into people I'd gone to HS with. Luckily, the night I went there was no one from my HS class, in fact there weren't that many people at all and the music was fire! Normanites need to do better and support businesses and local music scenes like this. The cover charge was minimal at $8 and the drinks were good.

    June 2, 2023 I went to Opolis tonight and it was a blast…read more From what I gather a group of "fascinating and eclectic young individuals" have shown enterpreuneuship and taken ownership of this club in the recent past and are putting together a unique vision into action. This is a good place for entertainment at University of Oklahoma - good people, good times and great experiences. I was a bit early and got introduced to these owners and it was the begining of the wonderful experience. - I had the delicious house Pineapple punch with rum which was excellent and just one glass put a "buzz in my turban" - I got to see the menu and noticed a yummy array of food but did not eat as I had already eaten my dinner! Will be there tomorrow to eat! - The ambience of the place reflects on the warmth and friendly nature of the ownership! The bar was well stocked and well kept, the premises were very clean and there was a sense of pride in what was being done. The outside patio was very charming! - The service was impeccable and as I mentioned in the earlier paragraphs there could not be a friendlier place! Thank you Addi, Lane, Eli, Sarah, Ethan and Julius for looking after me so well. You people are going to go places. To summarize, I had an excellent experience on the above these three categories and I will be going to the dance party on the 3rd!! I strongly recommend this venue for anybody's entertainment needs and a place to get together with friends! As far as entertainment- there was an out of state "modern country western band," Tommy Goodroad and his band, and it was their first gig in Oklahoma. It was excellent stuff played by a very talented band with the artists playing a whole spectrum of originals and cover music. Hope to see you all at the Opolis sometime soon. Have a great weekend!! Regards Baljit
