7 Best Southern Restaurants near Edmond

“Hi, my name is Mel and I just wanted to share a wonderful experience we had in your store yesterday. We are expecting a baby and to surprise our son we decided to have the gender revealed through strawberry or blueberry pancakes. Our server, Akaisha, took this request very, very seriously and did such a wonderful job with our request. Several other ladies from the kitchen also came out and were so supportive and sweet to our family. I was focused on my son's reaction at the time and wish I had been able to thank them all more for being so thoughtful and supportive of this reveal to our son. Several other members of your team had very sweet things to say throughout our visit, and even when I forgot my purse and had to come back. In a world where times are tough, I just wanted you to know that your staff was so much more than that yesterday, they were plain wonderful humans. Thank you so much for the experience, we are so happy that your store was part of this special memory for us“

“Had a fantastic meal at Slim Chickens. The chicken was crispy, juicy, and full of flavor, and the tenders and sides were fresh and delicious. Everything was served hot and quickly. The staff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout the visit. The restaurant was clean and had a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere. Great value, great service, and consistently tasty food.“

“I really enjoy Chicken Express and have always thought this was a great little place to get fantastic chicken and a good meal.

I dined inside today while waiting for my car to be repaired next door, and it gave me a little more time to notice the condition of the restaurant. Unfortunately, the facility is starting to look tired and could really use some attention.

The landscaping and lawn outside don’t appear to be maintained like they once were, which makes the property look unkept before you even walk through the door. Inside, I noticed bugs collected in the light fixtures, dirty vents, and rugs piled up in the dining area. Overall, the dining room is beginning to have the same tired appearance as the exterior.

The food is still great, and that’s what makes this worth mentioning. Sometimes it’s helpful to step back and look at the business through a customer’s eyes. None of these things individually are huge, but together they affect the experience and the impression customers have of the restaurant.

It’s the small things that matter. A little attention to the building, landscaping, cleanliness, and overall presentation would go a long way because the food itself deserves a better environment.“

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about The Kitchen in OKC. In a time when so many families are struggling, they have shown what true community and compassion look like. Offering free family meals to those facing hardships isn’t just generosity, it’s kindness in action, and it means more than words can express. The food is made with care, but what truly nourishes you is the love behind it. Walking in, you’re not treated like a number or a handout. You’re treated like family. The staff greets you with warmth and dignity, reminding you that there’s still so much good in the world. What The Kitchen is doing reaches far beyond a meal. They’re feeding hope. In times when many are struggling silently, their doors are open and their hearts are even wider. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being a light to our community and showing what it means to care for one another. You’ve made a real difference.“

“This place is alright. The service is okay, but the food is pretty decent. Overall it's just okay.“
