I got there just ahead of their 2:00PM closing time for lunch. The waitress who saw me come in disappeared into the kitchen for several minutes came back out about 1:58 and told me they were closed and that the cook had gone home ... she wouldn't seat me. Guess how often I will drive from Edmond to Juniors in the future.

Junior's is one of my favorites and an OKC tradition. If you come here, you must try the Caesar Salad, it is the best. I don't know of any other restaurants in OKC besides Michael's Grill that does it right! The Shish K Bobs are also excellent, as is their lobster. Sometimes they have specials such as Fried Catfish or Shrimp Cocktail, both superb. It may be a little pricey for some (especially the lobster!), but definitely worth it. Come for lunch and it's very reasonable.
We have eaten at Shiki's several times and the food was always plentiful and very good tasting. For this type of restaurant we feel the prices are within reason. We look forward to eating at Shiki's again soon.
I was very disappointed in this restaurant. The food was not tasty. The fried rice was dry and crunchy.The steak was dry and tasted bland with an overall flavor of lighter fluid from our unexperienced cook attempting tricks.We waited for 30 min for t

a diner from Moore, OK
For a place billed as "fine dining" it was quite a disappointment. The food was good, and quite edible, but not what I expected after seeing this place mentioned on a number of sites as a high-end/fine dining establishment. The prices fit the billing, but not the food, presentation, or service. Our food server was average at best. Our bar/beverage server was a joke. If the ONLY thing you serve is drinks from the bar, knowing a little about booze would be a good idea. When I asked what single malt scotches they had, she was clueless, and told me they had Jack Daniels single barrel. Not even the same type of whiskey (or whisky if you want to spell it like the Scots). She had to bring me a list. Now, that wouldn't have bothered me quite so much if it were any other restaurant, but in a "nicer" place, you'd expect them to serve AND know about higher end liquors. Especially if bar service is the only thing she's handling. Sad. From what I hear it used to be quite the nice place.
One highly redeeming factor was the piano bar after dinner. That was awesome. It starts at I believe 8:30 nightly. Quite a good time, and we wound up closing the place.
