"Meh... .. but it's kind of hidden so gps should take you here. If I had to guess I would say this used to be either a pool hall or a pizza parlor. When you first walk in you do a double-take because you will walk into two pool tables and a jukebox machine making you think you are at a bar and then you see two pool tables and realize okay it might be a restaurant as well but don't let that discourage you if you are daring if you can try the food here. I should have read the recent reviews and they were not very convincing that I should have tried but I took the leap of faith and fell flat on my face.I ordered the Korean beef and the fried tofu was not a very good presentation everything comes in a to-go box not like the others pictures so they changed something. The tofu was okay if you are very hungry but the Korean barbecue beef I had two bites and it was like beef jerky like someone else reviewed. Only ate half of it and left. The ice tea is very good here at least and the owner/manager or wherever he is his kind of nice I guess. You can look at the pictures that I posted and you can pretty much see the experience you can expect here so yes, like other people said this isn't the best place to go but if you're hungry give it a try"
"The Flea is one of my new favorite watering holes in OKC!What is it? The Flea is just a super friendly dive bar with saloon-style snacks and lots of options for entertainment. With its great big juke box, pub games, and ample patio, it's a perfect spot for kicking back with your posse. It reminds me of a little gay bar in San Francisco that I visited once. Maybe it was the guys in flannel shirts under the soft light of Tiffany lamps. Maybe it was the thumping music mixed with the alluring smell of weiners. Or was it the mention of Cornhole? I can't quite put my finger on it...Anyway, we stumbled in on a Thursday night and were treated like regulars. The bartender gave us the 411 on The Flea and served up a couple of icy-cold local beers from a selection that was ample and varied. That Francie is a keeper, for sure. We felt right at home here and wish we could have stayed longer. On that night, we uttered words of thanksgiving that there were only grown adults in the joint. No frat boys, blecch! If I ever moved to OKC, I would be a regular at The Flea."
"Favorite dive bar in OKC. As an older millennial, I don't dare go after dark when it turns into a real bar, lol, but I love to go late afternoon which is that sweet spot time between meals. Their double cheeseburger and fries with a $2 beer is a true OKC treasure. They've added a salad to the menu and it's fantastic. They're happy to turn on the game as they have 4 TVs so you don't miss any of the sports action. One of the best burgers in town, hands down. May 2023"

THE JUNCTION (2022) ... Sadly at the beginning of this year we had some very special folks retire after 28+ years of running the Junction. Moses & Mama (to me) hung up their chopsticks and are taking a very well deserved retirement. They've always treated me like family and I will definitely miss their presence at the restaurant. If you're on Moses Facebook, you know he's enjoying it. I couldn't be more happy for them.Knowing my dear friends were no longer there, and during this ridiculous era we're going through, I couldn't get myself to return yet and meet the new owners. Well, last weekend I finally got up there. After being there about 5-minutes I saw one of the best sights come out of the kitchen to make this fat bellied old man happy.My old friend David Gracia is the new owner. He and his beautiful wife Dina Gracia were the ones to purchase this landmark restaurant. David used to be the cook at El Fogon, and I definitely loved his work there. I knew I was in good hands again.The menu is fantastic. Many things to come from our conversation that night. Not only will they have their legacy items, but they are expanding the menu to include some international cuisine. I'm always excited to try new foods and definitely look forward to what David & Dina are bringing to the plate.I had ordered a sampling of items, with the plan to bring home leftovers. I was not disappointed and my tastebuds (and belly) were extremely satisfied.If you haven't been by The Junction in a while, I highly recommend you do drop in. They have kept the late night hours for the weekend. I believe it's until 3am Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.Pictured is the Beef Bulgogi, Chicken Dakgogi, Jap Chae, Vegetable Beef Bulgogi, Yakimandu, Radish Kimchi, and Cabbage Kimchi.Huge thanks and love to my Korican family for all the years of good food and awesome company!! Moses & Mama, Sonya, Violet, Jazmine, Lina, Kaitlyn, Jessica, and all the former employees slipping my memory this second. I do look forward to many more years with David & Dina Gracia.To end this review ... I WANT TO KNOW WHEN LAWTON IS GOING TO CELEBRATE AND PROCLAIM MOSES COLON DAY??!!

Really enjoyed hanging out at this place while in OKC. Eclectic and friendly crowd. Cheap and familiar beer. Casual and cool service. Lots to see and do - whether it's the jukebox, the memoribilia, the games or the clever bathroom graffiti - all good. I will ALWAYS go to The Flea when I'm in town.

George Motz would be a fan of this place, because the double cheeseburger here is outstanding! Classically done, patties smashed thin and deeply griddled, simple but perfect. Each bite buttery, beefy, and it just melts in your mouth. And it's only 9 bucks. Actually, value here is darn good across the entire menu. The daily $2 beer on tap just can't be beat. I enjoy the dive bar atmosphere geared toward a younger crowd. Plus the blonde gal who served us (I didn't catch her name) was friendly as hell and keeping up with the busy kitchen with ease. Some of the other food didn't compare well to the burger (chicken sandwich and tots both too greasy, bun soggy, fries too plain).But I'll definitely go back for another burger and a beer.
