One griddle, a dozen stools, since 1996.
Nic's Grill is a tiny, roaring Oklahoma City lunch counter where the Onion Fried Burger — beef smashed into a heap of onions on a sizzling flat-top — has made it a bucket-list stop since the 1990s. There are only a couple dozen seats, the line moves fast, and the burgers and hand-cut fries are the stuff of statewide legend.
A pint-sized Oklahoma City legend, Nic's is the 2025 Centurion Award winner.
