Chef Eric Smith is coming back to the Club on Saturday, April 25 at 6:30pm, this time with a menu entitled “Before Country Was Cool” which pays homage to his Oklahoma heritage. Dinner is $175 per person and is a set four-course menu with vegetarian and gluten free options available upon request, and is open to the public. An $85 beverage pairing and a $125 champagne and caviar pre-party are also available, as well as a full bar menu. Reservations can be made on Clubspot or by calling 580-762-2436.
Chef Eric Smith began his culinary journey over three decades ago under the mentorship of Chef Kurt Fleischfresser, then in Chicago alongside multiple James Beard Award winners. Chef Smith is currently the executive chef and owner of multiple culinary ventures, including The Crown Room in OKC. This concept showcases Smith’s commitment to multi-sensory dining. Each curated dinner is designed to engage all five senses: pairing each course with a beverage, specific aromas and music to create a memorable experience. In 2025, Chef Smith was named a James Beard Semifinalist for Best Chef Southwest, and USA TODAY recognized The Crown as one of the Best Restaurants in the U.S.
