Description:
Originating in Oklahoma City, this former chain of Mexican restaurants is named Casa Bonita which in Spanish literally means "pretty house" - and this location is the only one remaining open in 2015. Founder Bill Waugh opened the first Casa Bonita restaurant in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, in 1968. By the mid-1970s, the chain had expanded to locations in adjacent states and was known for its "all you can eat" beef or chicken plates and offering sopapillas - small squares of fried bread served with honey - with every meal. The Lakewood Historical Society made the restaurant a historic landmark in 2015.
