Tulsa Food

Located on main street in downtown Broken Arrow, Main Street Tavern sits on a busy corner inviting patrons in for a relaxing break. The restaurant/bar is a new fixture to the area, but feels like it has been there for decades. The owners, Jason and Kat Scarpa planned it that way. They renovated the 1904 [...]

One halcyon summer long ago, when I was at that age when Proustian memories are effortlessly formed, my parents and I went motoring around the English countryside. My dad had it planned so that we stopped each night at a grand old country inn, built around the time when Shakespeare was a boy and little [...]

It’s Friday night, or any 7 nights or afternoons of the week, you want a spot to chill with friends, a spot with charactor and some crazy good drink and food specials. That’s what I was thinking before my friends and I hit Fat Daddy’s Pub and Grille last week. Fat Daddy’s is a pub [...]

This year, before you don your green and head out for some scary green beer, check out some of Ireland’s finer exports! Irish Cheese Coolea Willem’s Family Farm Macroom, County Cork, Ireland Originally from Holland, the Willems family moved to Ireland more than 20 years ago to make their Gouda-style cheese. Made from Pasteurized cow’s [...]

Each and every month, one of my favorite spots in town to grab a bite and a pint comes out with a new specials menu, ranging from Soups, Appetizers, Desserts, delicious German specialties for Oktoberfest to one of my favorites, BURGERS. Last year I went down to Kilkenny’s with 8 other burger lovers, and we [...]

“You’re in a downtown bar!” I told my friends as they looked around in fearful wide-eyed wonder. “You’re in a downtown bar!” Yes, there are people who would never in their lives set foot in a downtown bar unless they have a very good reason. The best hot dogs and fries around — that’s reason [...]

“I think I have found my new favorite restaurant in Tulsa,” I satisfyingly proclaimed as we finished up our Jalapeno Cheesecake at the new Go West Restaurant & Saloon near New Sapulpa Road in Tulsa. Everything from the extravagant, contemporary western décor to the strong attention to detail in the silverware, I was strikingly impressed [...]

I always eat before I drink — I learned that the hard way — but I never seem to eat WHERE I drink. Dinner at home and then a night on the town is more my style. But if you want to combine the two, with an emphasis on the liquid part, you might want [...]

If you’re wondering why people rave about Genghis Grill so much, stop wondering and go try it for yourself. It’s a Mongolian Grill concept like no other, and I’ve seen it get more people hooked more than any other current restaurant concept. When you first walk into a Genghis Grill, you will be greeted by [...]

We knew it was coming but weren’t sure if we wanted a change. Fire Rock Grill & Bar has just added a Southwest menu which includes more delicious food and margarita options that have caused me to explore outside the norm. If you are like me you love a good weekday happy hour or Friday [...]

As Restaurant Week continues on, Tulsans everywhere become enlightened as they’ve been enjoying some of Tulsa’s finest dining establishments. Yesterday for lunch we decided to hit KEO. Have to admit, this isn’t the first time I’ve been there and since it is one of my favorite restaurants on Brookside I decided I couldn’t pass it [...]

Bigger, better than ever, open for breakfast lunch and dinner, and now in South Tulsa. There was a woman from New Iberia, Louisiana who visited Chicory & Chives back when it was a tiny Westside diner. She ordered the Crawfish Etouffee. It was so good she brought her family back to try it, and they [...]

Not sure what you want to eat for lunch or dinner. My solution to that is a restaurant with a rotating menu or chalkboard. There are many restaurants in Tulsa that fulfill my indecisiveness. One of them is Campus Grill. Their always changing chalkboard seems to always have something exciting and garsh-darn good on it. [...]

Miranda Kaiser, owner of Cosmo Café and Bar, made a huge decision moving her restaurant from south Tulsa to Brookside a mere eight months ago. It was definitely the right move she said, because the restaurant is flourishing in its new location. I enjoyed lunch there last week and really didn’t want to leave. Cosmo [...]

Wolfgang Puck, like Dior and Armani, is one of those names that seeps into your subconscious without your being quite aware of it. You know little or nothing about the man, but the very sound drips glamour. Wolfgang Puck, the man, is worth knowing about. Born in Austria, he worked with some of the world’s [...]

Love to eat?  The average family eats out at least once a week. Now, you can dine out AND have a percentage of your meal proceeds benefit a family facing a medical crisis.

Hey ladies! Aren’t we all overdue for a girls night out? I think so. The Melting Pot’s next Ladies’ Night Out on Monday, July 19, and will feature a “Pacific Paradise” four-course fondue dinner. The menu will begin with the chef’s choice of creamy cheese fondue, followed by a fresh salad and a petite Pacific [...]

Sit at the elegant wood-paneled bar at Fleming’s any night before seven and look out over a sea of diners eating delicious appetizers for which they’ll pay between $12.50 and $15 each. You, savvy customer, because you’re sitting at the bar and arrived before 7, are eating the exact same appetizers for six dollars a [...]

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could find a chain restaurant that wasn’t a chain? It would have the same kind of casual fun food as your average T.G.I. Friday’s but the menu wouldn’t be designed by a bunch of cost-cutters in suits sitting in a corner office in Chicago and the food wouldn’t be [...]

Elote Café and Catering prepare delicious, fresh, organic Mexican food for people in Tulsa and the surrounding area. They are also environmental trend setters. We’ve met them before when they opened Elote Café and Catering in May 2008. They recycle glass, aluminum, plastic and cardboard with local recyclers “Recycling Revolution.” They support local family farms, [...]

The Canebrake is having a Crab Boil and Beer Tasting this Friday (May 21st) and has only a few spots left! This would make a great date night or time out with friends on the patio.  There will be a Beer tasting from 5:30-7:00 p.m. and an all-you-care-to-eat Seafood Buffet from 6:00-9:00 p.m. If it [...]

Back in the day when Tulsa was oil capital of the world, anyone who even dreamed of being anyone stayed at the Mayo Hotel. John F. Kennedy, Katherine Hepburn, Charlie Chaplin, Harry Truman, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Elvis Presley, Eleanor Roosevelt, John Wayne, Mae West, all that gilded long-gone elite. Pretty Boy Floyd never stayed [...]
