Gorgeous Christmas experience! The food is not worth the high price tag so be prepared to be underwhelmed but the it. The service is outstanding, and the experience is wonderful. My girls said they felt like they were in a movie. I wish it was more affordable so others could do it. I wouldn’t say it’s worth the price tag. I compare it to a character dinner at Disney. It’s about the Christmas experience but not the food.

Oklahoma City

About the restaurant

Tellers serves authentic interpretations of regional Italian cuisine. Traditional methods of Italian cooking and the philosophy of using seasonal ingredients with integrity form the basis of the house made pastas, wood oven-baked Neapolitan pizzas, and locally sourced vegetables and steaks cooked over a wood burning grill. Tellers’ extensive Italian wine list highlights the breadth and diversity of Italy’s wine growing regions and unique varietals. Tellers is located in the historic First National Bank gallery amongst the original teller booths, which have been meticulously restored. The atmosphere at Tellers and The Great Hall embraces the building’s rich heritage as a convivial communal space.

Sat at the bar as it was just me this time. Had a wonderful time, and my server Tyler was great! Had the mushroom soup and southern meatloaf, which were amazing as always.

About the restaurant

Serving the metro for over thirty years, La Baguette Bistro is the go-to place for Sunday brunch, cakes beyond compare, pastries and fine wine.

The Euro-casual ambiance with its ever-changing art gallery is comfortable yet elegant, and the dark, cozy bar area invites leisurely drinks after work. Regulars flock to La Baguette Bistro for the Croque Madame & Monsieur sandwiches, Chicken Crepes and the crispy French fries ("frites"). Daily specials keep them interested.
