Get ready, a brand new restaurant is coming to Lawton, Fort Sill. It will be located downtown at the Central Plaza in the old White Buffalo location. That's great news, but it gets even better. It's opening very soon!

So what is the new restaurant and what will they be serving? It's called the La Grand Cantina and will serve authentic and modern Mexican cuisine. The menu will be filled with favorites and some all-new dishes to try.

The brand-new La Grand Cantina will be opening soon at Central Plaza in Lawton, OK.

We've been hearing rumors online and elsewhere about the new place but weren't too sure exactly what it was going to be, and when it could be opening. So we stopped by this morning to check it all out and see.

The marquee sign for Central Plaza has announced it and there's a sign hanging outside at the old White Buffalo location that also confirms all the rumors. While taking photos we were invited in to take a peek.

We met with Moni Ramos who's the co-owner and manager along with his partner Victor Ramos. They let us come in and get some pictures and talked with us about the new restaurant. It sounds absolutely amazing!

La Grand Cantina will have a wide menu of traditional Mexican food along with all the popular modern or Tex-Mex dishes. Both Moni and Victor have 20 to 30 years in the business and in the kitchen. Can't wait to try it.

The La Grand Cantina in the Central Plaza could be opening as soon as next week

We really appreciate them letting us hang out, take a few photos, and talk with us about the new restaurant. The place looks incredible and there's tons of space. From what they told us they could be open next week.

As a matter of fact, it could be as early as this Monday or Tuesday. Looking forward to having another place to eat in Lawton, Fort Sill and in downtown. After hearing about the menu I can't wait to grab a bite to eat.

The Highest Rated Local 'Cheap Eats' Restaurants In Lawton

Sometimes you just cannot eat another bite of chain-restaurant food. There's a bit of comfort in the fact you can visit any location in the country and have the same meal, but it grows tired on the taste buds. Sometimes you just need something uniquely local and preferably within your budget.

While there are higher-rated restaurants in town, they come at a steep price. Paying $12 for a lime-washed beer or glass of wine crosses the border between eating a meal and paying extra for entertainment. Here are the highest-rated local cheap eats in Lawton according to Trip Advisor.

Being a Top-5 cattle producer, you might expect to find a great steak on the menu of nearly every restaurant in the state, but life is never that simple or easy. The biggest hurdle isn't a lack of steak options on menus, it's the variation of personal tastes that drives reputations and reviews, but here are the steakhouses most Oklahomans can agree on.
