2026 Best New Restaurants in Oklahoma City

Photography by Jared Kinley, Rachel Maucieri, Josh Masterson, Starving Artist Co. and Selena Romero. All eyes are on Oklahoma City. I know I say it every year around this time, but as someone who has lived all over the country and travels multiple times per month, there’s no place like OKC. That’s true of so many aspects of my adopted hometown, from its booming arts scene and its impending colossal coliseum to its characteristic neighborhoods, year-round events, world-class hotels and metropolitan developments.

In 1953, a debate over Oklahoma’s state song was interrupted by a performance. Rep. George Nigh wanted to replace the solemn “Oklahoma, A Toast” with the title number from Rodgers' and Hammerstein’s musical. An opponent had defended the old song by singing it on the House floor.

Nigh got his bill passed. The Oklahoma Historical Society preserves this wonderfully improbable episode. The Legislature had not been persuaded by a written argument alone. Its members had heard what the proposed anthem could do when sung by a roomful of people.

When the Pride of Oklahoma strikes up “Boomer Sooner,” the song asks very little of anyone who knows it. The words are short. The tune is quick.
