    The host was great and knew exactly where my party was located. The food and sides were great, I had the brisket and sausage with sprouts and green beans and all were fantastic. Waiter was spot on and glasses never empty. Thank you!

    Iron Star is remarkably consistent and does not disappoint. The food is always very good. I’ve never had a bad meal.

    Was expecting a more traditional BBQ experience but it’s more of an elevated nice restaurant that also serves BBQ. Oddly, the best thing we ate was the quail appetizer.

    I’ve eaten at this restaurant dozens of times. But some of our food was cold and tough. But my husband’s steak was awesome he said. The other five meals were not so good. We may take a break from this restaurant until they can get their problems sorted out. Also a Friday night and only about 1/3 full. That should have been a clue to us.

    Iron Star never fails! We had our rehearsal dinner here in 2007, and even after all this time, it’s consistently good! We celebrate a specific family event here every year on the same day - this, our 13th year. Tonight’s service was exceptional and of course the food was great! Thankful to have this as a staple in our OKC dining repertoire. Many food restaurants have come and gone over the years, but Iron Star still shines (of course, they’ve learned from the best in Cheevers!). IS doesn’t disappoint- whether a date night, night out with friends and drinks, or a family dinner that appeases both picky kids and sophisticated parents! 🙏
