Florence's Restaurant

I've seen so many positive reviews of this restaurant. Since it was a late lunch, there was ample seating. I had no idea I was about to indulge in such an interesting flavor of the well-prepared chicken. I can't recall ever having had yam fried chicken. The sweetness paired with the crunchiness of the skin and the tender meat inside set my tastebuds on alert. Oh the mushroom and sprouts in the crisp salad..so good! There are three vegetables of choice offered with this meal. I selected the seasoned spinach, yams and seasoned green beans. Not to mention all of that included a cornbread roll. Wow! Plenty leftover to take home and share with my family. The service was lovely. I had such a respectful server referring to me as ma'am with each exchange. For me, this is a standout. Reminds me of being in Louisiana. The restaurant music was relaxing and enjoyable. I couldn't have asked for it to be more pleasant. Thanks for a memorable experience. I'll stop in again and bring others.

This is food for the soul for sure, the yammed fried chicken is something I will dream about! It was delicious and I've not had fried chicken like this in quite sometime! Definitely planning to go back for the Monday special.

Pork chops were awesome. Atmosphere is a vibe. Will def come back. Wish they were open on the weekends of for Dinner. I'd eat here even more.

I popped in yesterday for an early lunch, and I was (no surprise) NOT disappoionted!I had a huge order of luscious neck bones and outstandingly good (collard) greens.My only complaint? They were out of spinach for the seasoned spinach. Meh -- I'm good with that.My lunch partner had the beautiful fried chicken, and I got a bite of his!

I stopped by for lunch a few years ago and the food is delicious. Excellent service and I enjoyed the atmosphere. Perfect for when I am craving the home cooked taste.

I've been dining here for well over 30 years! The food is consistently excellent. Never hada bad meal from this restaurant. Over the years, the interior has changed, but the food continues to be excellent! Good service!

Finally got to try this restaurant & we will definitely come back. The food was delicious! Our waitress was friendly & service was great. They have an outdoor patio & an inside dining area. My brother in law said it's the best fried chicken he has had, so I need to try it next time.

Good southern food. The fried chicken was delicious, but the pieces were tiny, while the chicken breast was dry. A personal preference, but I was not fond of the mac n cheese, very dry and bland. Mashed potatoes appeared to be made in-house, but it was clumpy, and the gravy was thin and lacked that beefy flavor. For $18 a plate, I was still hungry. Decent customer service, but our server could have been friendlier and attentive.

My last day in Oklahoma, I decided to stop by. The neighborhood is SUPER SKETCHY, but here was a diamond in the rough. Nicely designed patio, though the inside was a bit cramped. It was just myself and I was almost turned away at the door because they said they were very busy. Ultimately she let me sit at the bar. I ordered the oxtail, they were out. I ordered the chicken liver and gizzards, they were out of those too. I ended up ordering the chicken and dumplings with spinach, cabbage and collard greens.The experience so far would have earned them a 1-star review, but being that I grew up in the restaurant industry (my parents owned a small restaurant) I gave them the benefit of the doubt being that I was not treated rudely, she just seemed flustered being that she was busy.A few minutes later, out comes the food. Here is where the experience took a dramatic turn. I was floored by how distinct the entree and each side dish was in flavor. Though the spinach was just a tad heavy on the salt, everything was flavorful and delicious.In the end I'm glad I stopped in before leaving OK. Will stop by again the next time I'm in town. I'll try to call ahead and get a table when they aren't so busy.

Chicken/Dumplings were outstanding!! Taste just like how my grandmother and mother made theirs!Appreciate the fact that they were full ,but allowed my party of 3 in! Just flew in from Cali!!
