classen grill

always great!. i love the eggs benedict and their grits are wonderful. fresh oj as well. i even took my sister and mother for breakfast about a month ago and they loved it too!

delicious & pretty food. yes, the place needs updating, but it was clean.
went for breakfast, and was expecting greasy diner food, but, no, what i got was ohmygod delicious! i had the veggie taquitos - the veggies were good, and there were lots of green chilies - it had so much flavor. the southwestern hashbrowns were good - a nice, big flavorful order. the only thing i found lacking in flavor was the cheese grits, and i love cheese grits (mine, anyway) - i like that they were baked, but they had no flavor, and they need to use a sharper cheddar cheese (just my opinion).
the presentation of the food is very nice. everything i saw them serve looked delicious - the biscuit debris, chicken fried steak, and eggs benedict.
and our service was great.
i look forward to going again.

was ok. building looks kinda dingy.

good lunch!. wasn't sure what to expect after reading the reviews. went on a monday around 12:30 for lunch. our server was fantastic. very sweet and accommodating. i got the bacon guacamole burger which was great, but even better were their fries. do yourself a favor and order the ranch/cholula dipping sauce. my sis loved her eggs benedict but wasn't crazy about the cheese grits. and my dad really enjoyed his angus burger. the three of us ate for less than $30. we will definitely be back!

love love love!! i am obsessed with the memphis toast.. i come here for breakfast any chance i get. it is usually really busy.. this morning my waitress was really busy but checked on my table. my boyfriend had to get up and ask twice for something. that's the only time ive had an issue, usually service is great. i understand it was crazy busy. overall i recommend this place

disappointed. i was really looking forward to trying after all the positive reviews. to me, the food wasn't any better than cheap diner breakfast.

i just don't understand. for years classen grill has been a regular sunday brunch spot for the wife and i,but not anymore.gradually the quality of food and service has gone downhill,and doesn't seem to be getting any better any time soon. from poached eggs being overcooked,to cold hollandaise to terrible service. last sunday we went and tried again. well,it was the straw that broke the camels back. i ordered a waffle topped with fruit,and am still appalled at what they served me. overripe canteloupe,a few grapes,and about half a pint of squishy,old,some moldy,blueberries that i wouldnt feed to my dog. working in food,i would never imagine serving that,and am disgusting that not only a cook(s?) served it but a server brought it out like that. these people just don't give a damn,and we will not be returning.

first time at classen grill today. had the coyote chicken sandwich with fries. sandwich was a good size & delicious! fries were thick cut and very crisp. our server was prompt & friendly.

restaurant looks old and a bit like a dive from the outside but don't let that change your mind. the food is good quality. i'll definitely come again. maybe try their breakfast menu next time.

my first time here!. why have i never gone here before? well, i guess the fact that i live in dallas doesn't help, but i'm in okc quite a bit and have managed to never eat here until recently. after a night out drinking, wife and i decided to meet a couple of friends here for breakfast. first impression isn't much, just a really small hole-in-the-wall. my buddy told me to try his orange juice, which was supposed to be freshly squeezed and amazing. i thought it was just ok. but my chicken fried steak was really good, and my wife's pancakes were awesome. i can't really explain it, but the pancakes blew me away. we don't eat out for breakfast often, but if we do, she usually gets pancakes. i thought these were some of the best pancakes i've ever had. they were really fluffy, and had a lot of flavor. something about them just really stood out, and i can't put my finger on it, b/c they're just pancakes, right? never again will eat at ihop or denny's for breakfast in okc. server was really sweet too; she was down-to-earth and very attentive.

my favorite breakfast joint!. yes, the building is in need of repair. yes, the tables are crammed in close together. yes, the art on the wall (which is for sale) can sometimes be atrocious. oh, and the parking sucks. but the food speaks for itself. it is my all-time favorite place to grab a delicious, satisfying breakfast on the cheap. i like my eggs over-medium, and they always get it just right. their bacon isn't the thin, transparent, almost-not-there slivers you get at ihop. the fried potatoes are hearty and satisfying. no tropicana to be found here. they have freshly-squeezed orange juice, squeezed right there in the restaurant (but be prepared to pay a premium for it - around $4 a glass). their waffles are so good you almost don't need syrup, and their beignets (served with raspberry sauce) are a delicious treat. i can't speak for their lunch menu. i've never tried it, because every time i'm at classen grill i default to their tried and true breakfast menu.

great place for breakfast. love the omelette add-in options and it's cooked well. cream cheese, spinach, and jalepeno...mmm.

best breakfast in town! service was great and all of the food was delicious. we will never go anywhere else for breakfast.

i love this place, service is usually quick and efficient. gets busy real fast though. i try and eat here every weekend

good breakfast, good service, popular with locals, great menu variety with good classics. french toast was only disappointment- not really toast, more like a really thick pancake.

a good little breakfast place in belle isle. prices are about even with denny's, ihop, etc. don't know if a small glass of oj is worth $3, but it is fresh-squeezed, and it tastes good. got eggs, bacon, hash browns, and wheat toast, and it was all pretty good. probably will go back at some point.
