New steakhouse to open soon
Eric Bradshaw
A new restaurant is coming to Mustang but not just any restaurant. Winding Creek Steakhouse promises to be a high-quality establishment where you might take a date or celebrate a special occasion.
While area residents have had to go to Yukon or Oklahoma City for a nice steak, owner Ina Unsell is launching her business all the way from Del City into Mustang, just off Highway 152, in the Castlerock Plaza. It will take over the location of the former restaurant Favorites.
“We chose Mustang because it was a small town but up-and-coming and full of friendly people,” Unsell said, who plans to move to the town shortly. “I’ve attended church here and a Chamber of Commerce luncheon and everyone has been friendly and welcoming. We looked at a number of locations in the Oklahoma City metro area but they were either not big enough or the people weren’t as friendly.”
With an extensive menu that includes at least four cuts of steak, seafood, and chicken, Unsell promises that everyone can find something they like at affordable prices and for their particular diet. The restaurant also offers rooms that may be used for special events. Unsell noted that the rooms would be large enough to accommodate groups such as the Kiwanis Club or the Chamber of Commerce.
“We are trying for high-quality here,” she said. “We are going to improve on the décor a bit and we are currently remodeling the kitchen. Our wait staff will be dressed in black pants, white shirts, and aprons.”
The restaurant will offer no lunch menu but will have prices running the whole gamut to make Winding Creek accessible to all.
“We will have items for diabetics or those who can’t have sugar, for the kids, and our precious senior citizens,” Unsell said.
Unsell has been interested in the restaurant business since her parents’ own establishment opened in the 50’s and 60’s, a place she describes as a mom-and-pop coffee shop over in Del City.
The owner’s own favorite menu item will be the chicken-fried steak, she said.
“We won’t have those chicken-fried steaks that are all crust and an itty-bitty steak,” Unsell said. “It will be a light crust with a thick steak. We won’t skimp you on the food. More than likely, you’ll need a to-go box.”
The target date for the grand opening event is tentatively set for March 8 at 11 a.m. Winding Creek Steakhouse will be open daily Monday through Thursday and Sundays from 11 a.m.-10 p.m., and 11 a.m.-11 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. The restaurant also offers delivery and catering services for offices, individuals, and special groups.
