Dinner with Baby Jesus: What’s Open Christmas Eve in OKC
Christmas Eve is a busy night for area restaurants, at least for those that are open. The easy answers for Christmas Day diners not at home for the holiday have been hotel restaurants or Chinese food, but the night before offers far more variety. We’ve compiled a non-comprehensive list of bars and restaurants that will be open at some point Christmas Eve to help you choose local. The information was submitted to us, so its accuracy should be guaranteed, given that in most cases, it was owners or managers who replied to our query. Where available, we’re posting the hours; for the rest, check their social media. And we don’t have interns, so we’re not linking these. That’s too much to ask for a Monday.
