Southern Belle Restaurant

"Went on Sunday @ 12pm and was full and before left was waiting list. Food was excellent. Wife had chicken strips, daughter had chicken fried steak, sister had patty melt, and me; club with salad bar. Salad bar was excellent stocked. Waitress Maddy was AWESOME and friendly…"

"Five stars isn't enough for this place. Great food, great service, and come on you're eating in an old train car so the atmosphere is off the charts cool. This is the perfect Oklahoma road trip hidden gem. The best homemade cheesecake I've ever had."

"We met a local resident at Lake Wister State Park and she recommended this restaurant. Thanks Becky for telling us about Southern Belle! We loved eating here. I got the catfish fingers and my husband got the Southern Belle fried chicken. Both plates come with 2 sides and hush puppies and roll. Our food was delicious! The salad bar was used as one of our sides it was delicious too! Fresh produce, wonderful dressings, pasta salads, etc. Great service and food in a very charming rail car."

"We took the scenic route back home from Fayetteville, AR and ran across this gem of a cafe in Heavener, OK. Its unique look and crowded parking lot convinced us to turn around and give it a try. Who wouldn’t want to eat in a dining rail car from another era?? Friendly folks were quick to welcome us aboard and settle us in for lunch as though we were family. I chose a steaming roast beef plate and with a delicious brown gravy and smashed taters to follow a trip to a well stocked salad bar. The selections of southern style comfort foods were many and every plate being served around us looked very appetizing. This is one of those small town diners that are getting hard to find as corporate chains dominate the landscape. We’re happy we took the long way home and found the Southern Belle Restaurant beside the tracks in Heavener! My only regret is that I passed on the homemade pie. What a treat that would have been to enjoy at one of the scenic overlooks up the road. … There’s comfort in knowing I can correct that omission when we come this way again."

"I thoroughly enjoyed the Southern Belle Restaurant! The food was hot and fresh, full of flavor and good to the last bite! It was prepared and delivered in a fairly quick amount of time, and the service was great! The staff was very friendly and attentive. The dining room is inside a restored passenger car of the Kansas City Southern railroad from days gone. If you’re a train enthusiast or just looking for a good meal, stop by and give them a try! I should’ve stopped in years ago. I will definitely be back in the future when I’m in the area."
