I thought the The Garage getting best burger was a crime until I saw Ted's won best mexican. What in the world is up with these rankings?

I decided to use The Gazette's "Best Of" results so as to not show impartiality/bias on my part. That said, I often question how many of their winners always seem to come out on top, year after year when I know personally there are better restaurant choices here locally to pick from...Popularity contest?

That's a great list. I can't argue with any selection except one. Cattleman's is the most overrated steakhouse in OKC. I've tried it multiple times, and have been underwhelmed each time. I can think of 5 steakhouses off the top of my head that I would choose before I would resort to them.

That's true. Texas Roadhouse or Logan's Roadhouse matches or surpasses Cattlemans Steakhouse. Even Santa Fe Cattle House is good for the money. Personally I think Cattlemen's is living on their reputation that in my opinion is no longer applicable.

Couscous Cafe is amazing, too! The owners personally hand-select all produce and meats. Also, La Baguette Bistro is great too

There's no shortage of good to great Mexican restaurants and hamburger joints but Howard's burgers in Nichols Hills was king of burgers in the 80s. If you're hungry for a consistently good European style sub sandwich Napoleon's in Midwest City is a must try. The original founder retired about 13 years ago and under their (husband and wife) management they were at another level but they're still darn good. Try the #1 Emporor and you won't be disappointed. I warned the new management to never mess up that sandwich or they'd go out of business. Napoleon's Deli has survived moving from near Reno and Meridian to Midwest City and then two more moves within Midwest City. Most places couldn't survive changing locations that drastically.

I’ve been to Clark Crew about 5 times. First two times were unreal. Best burnt ends I’ve ever had inside a restaurant. However after that it has fallen off a cliff! It pains me to say this but I hope the man himself can get the magic back before he opens the Tulsa location. When it was good, it could compete with the Texas restaurants. Please Travis, get this right!!!!!

Outside of the sushi and seafood recommendations, this is the worst list of OKC restaurants I’ve ever seen. People who voted for these places are the same people who crowned Taco Bell “America’s best Mexican food”.Anybody who voted on this still thinks Red Lobster is fine dining.

A&T Garcias Mexican Restaurant was the best for many years located in the old Oklahoma City fire department training building off of California but sadly they sold and moved somewhere over by Borden's milk plant off of Broadway but I didn't even get to visit that location before they went broke I assume. It's a shame because no other Mexican Restaurant has even come close in my opinion.

The Garage? Really? I went to one and it was mediocre at best. Service was nothing to write home about and the burgers were very ordinary. The fries were cold too. Never went back. If that made the list, we are in bad shape.

Oklahoma is the thrift store version of every other place you've ever been to. Everything is the penniless version of what you're expecting. Nothing in Oklahoma is worth the money you'll pay for it. The cost of living in Oklahoma is as bad as anywhere else now with a garbage economy, government, and infrastructure. One of the worst states ever.
