    Comfortable, clean and friendly bar tenders. Beer is cold prices are good. If you smoke they do have a covered patio out back.

    I am often asked, "What is your favorite restaurant in (Wichita Falls)?"…read more I generally hesitate with the answer, as I ponder that question and answer. I usually answer with one or two I'm frequenting more often in the current time period. When it comes down to it, I can solidly say Deli Planet is in the permanent Top Three. This year, I have been dining with Deli Planet for 40 years. Now with that being said, Deli Planet is truly my number one. I have eaten with no other that long (in the Falls). First as 'Subs n Subs' then Deli Planet. The consistent thing has been Eric Rutledge. He's been serving me since my first visit in 1986. Bob did an awesome job with hiring this guy. All the employees over the years have been fantastic and have always treated me like family. Always greeted with hugs and smiles. The one big change in all the years that turned this place into a powerhouse business is when Eric married Becca and this true power couple became one. Legends in the local restaurant business! The food always top-notch and very consistent from visit to visit. The place is always clean. All the employees seem to really enjoy their working here, which translate to a great atmosphere. I really love dining here and reflect back fondly on all that have crossed my path while dining here. Especially when I think back to all those that this place gave me a permanent friend like Samantha Ellis Stanley. Of course the whole of the Rutledge family is included in that, as they have all worked here at one time or another. Love my Deli Planet!!

    The worse service and food experience in Wichita Falls, Texas! I made a reservation for 20 people…read moremajority seniors over 60 years young via telephone message, because this business never answers the phone. They called me back a few days later saying I was good to go and they had a back area set for me. I called again to confirm twice and no one answered again. I left another message and we showed up on the time and with good spirits. The waitress made sure she told us multiple times that they were very busy and short staffed while in a hurry. Every time new people came into the Restruant the waitress would say "have a seat, I'm busy and will get with you and get your drinks in a bit". We all got seated and looked at the menu and waiter to order. She seemed happy and excited to talk to a table of 10, giving them hugs, smiles and conversations. Whenever they would come back to our section the wait staff was snappy and agitated. When we ordered the waitress was in a rush and rude. She took our orders then walked away. Another slimmer waitress came back like a crazy person, saying our entire group needed to leave since someone called her wait staff a B world... this was a group of church going people. I think they wanted to make something up to get rid of our huge group since they were never kind. One of my ladies decided to head out, since the waitress accused her. The rest of the group was very reluctant to stay. We try to figure out where else we would go. At this point members of the group started to walk away because they were nervous that the weight staff would do something to our food. One of the ladies walked out, and I followed her to just check on her, because the situation was so unprofessional. She said she just could not stay in these type of circumstances and they went to a restaurant near this location. When I came back in from outside, the manager started yelling at me and somebody would be paying for the food of the lady who left. Even though she told the manager to cancel her order and said what she had. I informed her that I did not know what she ordered and I never ordered it in the first place. She started yelling getting loud and the entire restaurant to hear her say that the cook was cooking it and so it had to be paid for. As I walked to my group, I realized there was a table full of food on a pool table getting cold. I turned around and said how long will it be to my food is here and the waitress manager said that's your food right there. I said it would be great to actually have it while it's sitting out here getting cold with people walking past it when people are hungry inside this room. The bigger waitress came and started dropping food off, slammed it on tables being extremely rude. It was the worst service we have ever had in our lives and none of us will ever go back. The food was not hot and was not good either. I had a mushroom burger that had two mushrooms on it and everybody else who had specialty items did not have a good amount of extra sides. Have the group with Military and this business was extremely unprofessional. I ended up paying for the girls food who left And gave it away. The bathroom smell like pee we never got Refills and they charge us a 15% surcharge for a big group and never gave us receipts for any of the food that we ordered. I do not recommend this business nor do I recommend the staff.

    First of all, I am not from Lawton. I lived here from '98 to '05 and come back from time to time to…read moresee relatives and old friends. I was here recently and low and behold, I found this gem. The Side Bar is a true diamond in the rough of what is Lawton, Oklahoma. The owner(s) is definitely not a local and why he would live here is beyond me. BUT the ambiance, decor, and cosmopolitan look is very well done and stands up with any great bar in Deep Ellum or Lower Greenville. It's only when the clientele open their mouths do you realize, "yup, I'm still in Lawton, Oklahoma." The bartenders are not just cute but actually were attentive (more so than many places in Dallas) and, considering it is Lawton, Oklahoma, know what a Manhattan is as well as an Old Fashioned. Unfortunately they served without rye but I don't hold it against them (looking at you management/owner) because I was immediately told about it. I'm looking forward to asking for a sazerac or a cosmopolitan on my next visit so hopefully they have the goods. The only issue I had with the staff (IF he is on the payroll) was some idiot who treated the music as his own personal playlist; diverse clientele be damned. Even the bartenders were annoyed at him but he straightened up once the owner was on site. Also, there is a lot of smoke/vaping but I give that a pass since, well, it is Lawton, Oklahoma. PROS: Atmosphere; diverse crowd; attentive bartenders who knew how to make a drink without googling it; owner seems cool CONS: CASH ONLY (but there is an ATM just outside); may be out of liquor for classic cocktails; smoking/vaping; idiot wannabe DJ In closing: I would have given a 5 star if the liquor was stocked (in spite of the idiot dj). BUT I will be back again and have already recommended to the locals I know there

    Best bar I've been to in awhile. Very friendly good staff and patrons. Cash only but very good…read moreprices. So glad I found it and sad I didn't find it earlier.

    I was traveling through Wichita Falls and wanted a good steak and some family atmosphere. I found…read moreMcBride's on YELP. I walked in just after 6pm on a Tuesday and the only seat left was at the bar, which was fine with me. There was live music playing in the center of the restaurant and a lot of families were enjoying their meals. I drank club soda and ordered a ribeye with German potatoes, which my server recommended. The atmosphere was great. A lot goes on at the bar so it was very entertaining. I was chatting with the people around me as if I'd known them. That's refreshing while on a business trip alone. My food came out pretty quickly. Yum. Steak was seasoned well and cooked just right, medium rare. The potatoes were delicious and reminded me of the vegetables that are often served with a Sunday roast in Germany (I actually lived there for 25 years). A restaurant does not have to be 'upscale' to receive a high rating. I did take away a star for the salad. It was just ok, pre-made and kept in the fridge until time to serve it. The romaine edges were dry, as were the carrots. The dressing was fine and I did eat the whole salad. As a matter of fact, I cleaned my plate. The guy to the left of me asked me if I was gonna post the empty plate on YELP with my review. Great idea. It turns out that the man was Ford Swanson Jr., the owner. I had no idea and I told him that. His response was, "I didn't want you to know." I guess he wanted to see if I really liked my food. Anyway, I don't even know if he looks at his YELP reviews or not but if he does, "Thanks McBride Steakhouse for treating me to a delightful evening!"

    Grilled chicken sandwich was great. Delicious baked sweet potato. Great service and staff!read more
