Othello's of Edmond

The only negative was our choosing the chianti. Everything else was excellent - food, service, owner coming to our table talking to us. ...

Cindy had the lasagna with meat sauce and thought it was excellent. I had spaghetti and meatballs, and they were fabulous. (Always order this if it is the first time you are eating at an Italian restaurant.)

We agreed that when we have people in town as guests, we will eat here.

Bobby the owner is fabulous.

Moving Movers


I moved three times in three years over a distance of 4500 miles. From Pennsylvania to California to Texas and finally, to Oklahoma. Each time I called Wheaton, which was suggested by a realtor. This last time, we used Duryea Moving and Storage from Denton, Texas, to move our belongings from U-Store-It in Sherman, Texas to Edmond, Oklahoma.

I am much appreciative of Wheaton because we only gave them one week’s notice, and most companies will only move you if you give them at least two weeks. Wheaton came through again, and our driver, Steven Peace, contacted us on Thursday, telling us that he would meet us at the storage facility 8:30 that Saturday morning. With a crew of three, including himself, Steven had our two units emptied and loaded in less than three hours.

He arrived in Edmond with a crew of four Monday at 7:30 a.m. If anything, Steven is prompt. They unloaded, took direction, hooked up our appliances, set up the beds and sectional furniture, and were finished before lunch. In addition to being prompt and quick, his team is courteous and professional. We recommend Wheaton and Steven if you are moving a short distance or cross-country.
