You Can’t Help but Feel Good at Kitchen 324

Oklahoma City· Restaurant ReviewsPosted by Kacy

25 Apr

There are some restaurants you just can’t help but love. They’re not gimmicky or pretentious. They have killer service time after time. The food tastes great, and looks good too. Kitchen 324 in downtown Oklahoma City is one of those places. You just feel good as soon as you walk in, with light streaming through the large windows and the smell of fresh pastries and coffee perking your senses.

brunch at Kitchen No. 324The interior reminds me of a restaurant you’d find in Northern California – all clean lines, with a distinct industrial feel. And I’m all about it. Kitchen 324 started out as a humble quick-service cafe for the downtown workforce but has morphed over the years into one of the city’s hottest dining spots. We stopped in last weekend to take advantage of what they do best: a beautiful hearty brunch.

cappucino at kitchen 324You can’t go to Kitchen 324 without getting your caffeine fix. Their coffee is simply fabulous. Tom ordered a beautiful cappucino while I opted for a “diner cup”. As we sipped our coffees, we couldn’t help but stare at the gorgeous pastry display and start to plan what we might order for dessert.

Kitchen No. 324 brunchThe menu offers everything from light, vegetarian dishes to hearty stick-to-your-ribs plates. When in doubt, it’s always safe to go with the daily brunch special. Tom went this route as soon as he heard the words masa cake benedict with chipotle hollandaise. The dish really showed off the creativity of the chef and was enhanced by fresh house-made sausage and a sweet potato and black bean hash.

The dish comes with bacon but after a meat-filled dinner the night before I decided to keep things vegetarian. This bowl was so comforting and flavorful, exactly what I needed after a big night out.

Kitchen No. 324 power bowlI ordered a side of fruit, expecting a typical small bowl of melon and maybe some berries. Instead I was presented with a fruit platter that was truly a work of art. Again, every bite was as fresh as could be and put a smile on my face.

They rotate daily, but you can expect to find scones, croissants, joenuts (their version of a cronut) and more. We couldn’t pass up the unicorn joenut (who could?) or the day’s special, the strawberry jam cake.

In addition to brunch, Kitchen 324 serves breakfast, lunch and dinner daily. If you’re visiting Oklahoma City, this restaurant should be at the top of your must-visit list (along with Waffle Champion, Hall’s Pizza Kitchen and Mickey Mantle’s, of course).

This post was done in collaboration with Visit OKC. Kitchen 324 comped our meal, but we have long been fans of this restaurant. All opinions are our own.

    The diner cup is the best option 😉 Love me a cup here and there, especially from a greasey spoon LOL. But really, even a cup from a classier joint that 324 works. Just as long as I get one hehehe….thanks for the rocking review!

      Haha I agree, one of my favorite things about going to a greasy spoon in the coffee. The cup at 324 hit the spot and gotta love those free refills. Thanks so much for reading!
