Coming to Norman tomorrow and am looking for some dinner recommendations.
Not looking for bar food or marathon upscale, but would like to try a few Norman traditional spots that have good food. Preferably a place to have a conversation so not too loud. Hit me with don't miss spots in Norman.
I will not hold my breath for serious responses, but have faith in humankind that I will get a couple?

I can't speak to Norman itself, but one must stop at a Braum's while in Oklahoma.
The Boomerang Diner is another Oklahoma tradition.

Im an LSU fan but have lived just outside of Norman for about 15 yrs and I can few pretty good places as sit down resturants go:
1. Pizza: Hideways
2. Brick Oven Pizza and great burnt ends: Pryors Pizza (On Outskirts of Norman off of Riverwind Casino and head chef is a huge Georgia fan)
3. SportsBar: Louie's, LandRun Grill, or O'Connell Irish Pub
4. Hamburger: Garage Burger(and its a pretty good sports bar)
5. MEXICAN:
Tarahumara's Méxican Cafe & Cantina
There are many other places obviously but we go to these regularly and they are pretty good but and if you want a much bigger selection then you would have to drive to OKC

Most of these recommendations are pretty good.
I'd add The Standard if you have kids with you or a large party in general. Food is pretty good, tons of tvs, and lots of beers to choose from.
The Mont is also a Norman staple, but that's mostly for their drinks, their food is not what I would recommend.
Volare on campus corner has good pizza. If you sit on the rooftop, you get a great view of campus corner and the stadium.
If you get into town well before 6 you can also try Midway Deli. It's a sandwich place just a little north of campus in the heart of a neighborhood. Barry Switzer frequents there depending on the time of day.

Mizzou fans haven't had much of an appetite in Norman since 1966

If you swing on into Landrun Grill I’ll be there. It’s my place. Hope you have safe travels! Good luck to you guys.
