    My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary and I know how much he loves a good record, so I surprised him with a trip to The Sound Bar. We got there almost right when it opened at 5:15 and it was pretty empty, but we loved it, it was nice to have the place to yourself. We ordered some drinks from the bar and just listened to the music that was already playing until my husband decided to request a record of his choice. This is such a vibe. Listening to music while have a few drinks, is a great date night out. They also have tables with cards, or chess boards, to have a fun night out with friends if you choose. Definitely give them a try. Check the website for the days they are open to the public and not just price events.

    The sound Bar is one great place, Jay the owner has one great man cave away from home. Been coming here when it was listening up Okc from the Yelp event. Now it's the Sound Bar which I like this name better. Come once a month for our watches meet up and never went anywhere else because Jay and staff are super awesome. Can't say it any better, coolest chill place to hang out talk with drinks and get to know people better. Love love sound bar!!!

    OMG! What a must experience in OKC! The SoundBar OKC provides the lucky ones a unique experience - listen to vinyl in comfy lounge while serving tasty adult beverages! An incredible experience! Chad was our vinyl guru . He played our requests and he played new stuff . Give this place a chance and you will fall under its magic!

    I feel like I should gatekeeper this place. It's upstairs from Saj Lebanese Cuisine in Automobile Alley. they don't have food but they let you bring in food from downstairs (or somewhere else). The drinks we got were all really delicious. I got the Midnight Mischief. It sounds like the ingredients would be a weird combo but it is heavenly. The vibe of the place was so cool. They have music theme nights that you can follow on their instagram for what the nights theme was. This night it was music with color (songs by artists with color in their name: White Stripes, Moody Blues, Green Day, etc). The staff were all great and the record selection was awesome.

    The cutest hidden gem here if you want a chill evening or casual date night. There's vinyls and couches so you can request your favorite song and relax with a drink. Such a cool vibe & bonus points for being located next to a delicious Lebanese restaurant below. Parking is street and you have to take a stairwell past the doors between Saj & Ash up to the second floor.

    First time in and it was such a lovely experience! We had the best bartender who was happy to make us drinks and talk to us about the story behind each one. My friend and I got to try a secret menu drink called Beyoncé's drink (pictured) and hands down this was the BEST drink I've ever had! You have to come and try this! Highly recommend... thank you again Angel and Jay!! and the music makes this place that much better.

    Cozy seating with good vibes.

    WOW! What a great space to relax and enjoy a few tunes. Enjoy your favorite album and experience new music from all genres. They offer several NA options of wine & mocktails along with the classics. The SoundBar is a great spot for date night, a friend adventure, or a solo visit for self care. 10 out of 10.

    This place is a gem! Bri and the other staff were friendly and made great conversation. The owner was also there and made everyone feel welcome in the space. They have drinks and will play just about anything you would like on their incredible sounding system. A great third space to chill, hang w friends or just have a night out! Highly recommend this spot that feels like you're in the best living room!

    First time here and it was beyond amazing. Angel was a treat. Each drink on the menu has a story, which I love. Make sure to ask for the secret off the menu drink called Beyoncé's Drink. To die for. Refreshing. Cozy and casual bar to hang out at. Amazing records and great music. Highly recommend. Thanks to Jay, who makes sure what song you want to listen to.

    ListenUpOKC is conveniently located of broadway in the automobile alley. They are a bit difficult to find if you don't know where you are looking but it's between two stores and up the stairs. The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the music. I absolutely adore this place. There was plenty of seating available and it truly is a sit down and vibe to the music place. They let you bring in food and drinks from the bar and restaurant downstairs which is stellar. The vinyl selection is vast and the views aren't so bad from here either. I recommend coming after a long stressful day to relax and unwind. Enjoy a glass of wine and kickback-- this will soon be your favorite place to be.

    Absolutely love the vibe here! This is a laid-back vinyl bar located above a cigar bar and Lebanese restaurant (SAJ). There's a bartender and lots of seating! This location is open Wednesday - Saturday with music theme nights for everyone's music taste. Thanks to yelp elite and our community manager for bringing us to this new gem in downtown okc! Will definitely be back.

    Lovely selection of bourbon.

    So much to say during my visit to the NCAA Tournament…read more.... First off, I apologize for not remembering names. That's not my strong suit. Humidor: It's small, but everything in stock is top shelf. Well stocked also. Staff is very helpful in finding what you're looking for and making recommendations. 10% off for military, vets, and first responders (cigars only). You can smoke on site, which is getting rare these days. Bar & staff: Nothing short of outstanding. Friendly, chatty (if you want that) and make the best Old Fashioned I've ever had. 3 different bartenders, 3 old fashioneds, all amazing. I told them they need to have a "mix off" for bragging rights. They're considering it. If Old Fashioned isn't for you, very wide selection of top shelf liquor, wine, and beer. Wanna play "Stump the Bartender"? I dare you. They'll know how to make it. Atmosphere: Lots of locals and a few visitors like me. Very welcoming. Told me a lot about the city and made me feel welcome. Definitely not a snooty "you're not from here," vibe. They welcomed me as one of their own. Not a sports bar, per se, but the games were on the one TV, which is fine with me. No kitchen on site. If you need food before your liquor, eat beforehand. Bottom line: My go to place in OKC. Should be yours also. Miss y'all already. Hope to be back soon.

    Let me set the downtown scene for you guys! Me and the boys were rolling around in deep deuce on…read moresome scooters having a great day. I seen a sign outside a stag that said happy hour. Instantly we stopped in and were greeted by, Monica and Tay!!! and let me tell you they were so welcoming we came to sit at the bar for a couple old-fashioned! Next thing you know, we were eating appetizers and having a few more drinks accompanied by everybody's good vibes and spirit. 10 out of 10 you guys this is what customer service is supposed to be. This is how bartenders are supposed to interact. They answered every question and provided amazing. Suggestions with so much knowledge about the product. We were blown away. We are definitely coming back.

    We've been to Crain a few times now and we've loved each experience. It's a cute sit down venue…read morewith plenty of space and light. The service has always been enjoyable! The staff know exactly what to recommend and we've never been steered wrong. Their prime rib is probably my favorite item on the menu. It is such a great meal for the price. It's cooked perfectly, is a large portion, and has great flavor for the Au Ju. We also lovedddd the beef stroganoff! It was a special item of the week when we first tried it and we were happy to see it became part of the regular menu when we came back a second time. Their poutine fries are apparently one of their most popular items. I'm usually not a fan of poutine fries, but my husband really wanted to try it and I'm glad I agreed because they were phenomenal! Not mushy and weird like normal poutine fries at other places. The sauces complemented the crispy fries very well. Overall this became one of our favorite spots to just pop in and grab a meal at while our daughter was in the NICU nearby. We will be making it a staple going forward!

    The same night that I tried Eastside Pizza House (at The Collective) is the same night we ended up…read morecoming over to R&J to get away from the crowd. Walking in, it was dimly lit & it reminded me of a bar Downtown in Tulsa. We found a table (the place got filled up pretty quick afterwards) caddy corner to the bar & we got help quick. My partner ordered the Oaxacan Old Fashioned, a friend of mine ordered some Truffle Fries & a drink that I didn't catch - as for me, I got the Ginger Beer (I don't drink). The Oaxacan Old Fashioned looked nice with the orange peel climbing out of the glass & had a really good aroma (I took a big whiff of it). The ginger beer was a spicy ginger beer & it was really good. With every sip, it was opening up my nostrils, it had some spice to it for sure. I tried my friend's Truffle Fries & it's something I'd order, especially if I wasn't as hungry & wanted a "snack". You can smell the truffle while the taste was real subtle. All in all, the place was chill. It was a nice wind down from leaving an art show & The Collective (I had no clue it turned into a clubbish scene on a Saturday... they were jammin' that night). My friend was a regular there, the individual who served us was super nice & friendly. There was whole menu to explore full of sandwiches, burgers (I want to try the South West Burger along with the Umami Burger) & all kind of other dishes to choose from. As much as I come down to OKC, I still get familiar with the scene more & more - R&J is added to the list of places that I'd return to. Side Note: A friend of my friend stopped by right before my partner & I left. She ordered the Brussel Sprouts and Bacon & in my head, I dove into her plate before she could.
