To say this is my favorite restaurant in OKC in an understatement. I drive a round trip between CA and TN about once a year and of the 2000 mile drive, dinner at Bar Cicchetti is always the highlight of the whole trip. The food is absolutely amazing. It’s a total gem. Everything I’ve ever had here has been top notch. I always purposefully starve myself on the day of travel so I can eat multiple items. In this case I started with an Old Fashioned, which James the bar tender, handled… as only the first part of his excellent service throughout the night. Then I enjoyed the Potato Jackets appetizer… which was incredible. Followed by the slow brazed ribs with the caramelized honey glaze that is tender and soooo delicious. And not to be missed is their Cinnamon Roll Bread Pudding… I mean it’s literally the best BP I’ve had anywhere! I cannot wait until my next visit. I hope to see James again when I do so I can opt for the “Bar Tender Drink Choice” on the menu to see what he comes up with. Love this place!

My Husband and I came here to celebrate Valentine’s and we’re so glad that we did! our favorite starter has to be the honey ribs. SO delicious and stands out so much. we also had their jalapeño chimmichurri wings, a lot lighter in taste but good. My husband got their blackened chicken alfredo and I stuck with the shrimp papperdale. First off the portions were great, a bang for your buck! I had to take a lot home and the pastas were very yummy. Brie and the upstairs bartenders took really great care of us and every other staff that came in to check in on us without being too invasive. We will definitely be coming back:) Thank you!

Bar Cicchetti always hits! I wish I was joking when I said their burger is the best in the city, but it is an undiscovered GEM! I never see anyone talk about it, but somehow SOMEHOW they take a very simple burger and make it taste amazing! It’s not crazy— no wild toppings or crazy gimmicks, it’s just a good freaking burger. Oh and their espresso martinis are very good too! They always draw a little seasonally appropriate picture with chocolate and caramel on it! This time it was a bow for the holidays and around Valentine’s, a heart with an arrow through it! My only gripe is how close the tables are to one another. I am more or less in other people’s conversations with the closeness and as someone that has a tinge of bad hearing, holding a conversation with the person across from me feels like an Olympic sport. Nevertheless, the vibes are immaculate here— very romantic and moody! I’ve only ever come in the evening and they’ll usually have a sign up that it’s reservation only. Not sure if that’s all the time or just when they expect it to be busy, but would HIGHLY recommend coming with a reservation!

We had several different food options. Started with Roasted Artichoke Fonduta and Seared Tuna Carpaccio. The tuna was good, the bread with the fonduta was very oily, really loaded with butter. But my biggest disappointment was the Wagyu Sirloin Steak. It was the toughest, chewiest steak I’ve had in a long time. Tougher than fajita skirt steak that I’ve had at any average Mexican restaurant. I split it with my wife, and we still did t finish it. The service was slow and inconsistent. When she picked up plates half full of food she didn’t even notice or ask about it. The atmosphere was good, downtown energetic vibes.
But based on the food I would not go back.

Food is mid. Tuna Carpaccio had very little tuna taste. Braised ribs were good, very tender. Patatas bravas was just some thin potato wedges with a dipping sauce. Reminded me of Wendy’s. Fried burrata was decent though better presentation than taste. Artichoke fondues was good. But hard to go wrong with carbs and cheese.
Friend had the Mahi Mahi and it was dry and overcooked. I had the wagyu steak. Tender and flavorful.
Service was good especially as it was busy.
Overall I would recommend a skip. Some decent restaurants in Bricktown but 2 good and 6 poor dishes is not a good ratio here.

By far my favorite restaurant EVER! Their espresso martini is to die for! The service and vibes are amazing here. Whether it’s for date night, birthday dinner parties, or just to sit at the bar and watch a game, it’s truly the perfect spot! I honestly wish I could eat here every single night! 10/10 recommended!

My wife and I got to go on a date here and the food was very very good. Definitely recommend to people for a date or even get togethers. It was reservations only when we went but they found a spot for us. The server was great and again, the food was very good!

First time here and it’s quite cozy. NOTE RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED I think. Menu is “smaller” which makes me think they focus on great food. The fried cauliflower was my fave. The artichoke dip was also excellent, and they were able to put the bacon on the side to accommodate the vegetarian in our group. We tried the crab lasagna, but the herbs were strong and I didn’t get much crab flavor. I would not order it again, but there are plenty of other dishes I want to try. Service was quick and friendly. I really liked the menu choices overall and will definitely go back to try other items.

Great service, it was paced perfect for what I wanted. Food was very good overall. Wasn’t a huge fan of the steak skewers they were good don’t get me wrong but not my thing. Pasta was amazing. I will be coming back when I am in town. Drinks were top notch too.
