Tulsa Food

Crazy weather normally does not have a factor in the type of food I eat day-to-day. Although it is unbelievably, insanely hot in Tulsa this summer, I still have been indulging on just as many sizzling burgers, steamy soups and even had myself a few bowls of hot chili served up HOT at Ike’s Chili [...]

Everyone has a story or two that involves a grilled cheese sandwich, I know I do. From throughout my childhood, through my bachelor days and now at the new Sage Rage Melt Bar on Brookside. The star of my stories has always been the sandwich which has interestingly evolved and while maintaining simplicity it has [...]

My trip to Sproutz was nothing short of refreshing. A small, hole-in-the-wall deli at 26th & Harvard – be on the lookout, it’s easy to miss. Sproutz has built up quite a reputation for serving fresh, healthy, out of the box meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Sandwiches, Wraps, Salads, and homemade dressings that will [...]

This week I want to spotlight Camille’s Sidewalk Café which is the creation of David Rutkauskas and his wife, Camille. They started the Camille’s concept back in 1996. Now, if you want to talk about a true homegrown, rags to riches kind of story… Camille’s is it. A lot of us remember when it was [...]

There’s something to be said about good quality food that is served up at a local establishment. There is even more to be said about a quality menu that changes every week. That’s exactly what you’re gonna find Tuesday-Saturday every week at The Boston Deli Grill & Market. Throughout owner Ken Shafer’s restaurant career he [...]

Yesterday I confirmed with my own eyes, ears and mouth a rumor I had heard a few weeks ago.  Tulsa’s favorite lovechild of Reggae music and the greatest Philly Cheesesteaks in town will be closing it’s doors for good after it’s 5th anniversary party next Tuesday, September 14th 2010.  I’m not sure whether I’m writing [...]

There is just something about the name that intrigued me to try Sproutz. It sounds refreshing, fresh and healthy…almost guilt-free. It was an adventure, and we got to share it with the owner, Don Eller so that made for a great lunch-time experience. The first thing we tried was the Chicken Soup w/ Homemade Matzo [...]

The first time I heard about Dragon Moon Tea Company was in a tweet from the mayor of Tulsa herself, Kathy Taylor. She mentioned she’d eaten there for lunch that day, and I was surprised. Lunch at a tea company? Dragon Moon sounded more like a fancy name for another Oz competitor to me. Last [...]

Tailgating this weekend? Let Lambruscoz do the work!! Lambruscoz is a Full-Out catering extravaganza. Not only a catering service but a restaurant and they deliver! Walking in I didn’t know what to expect. It resembled a very charming craft store mixed with awesome homemade food. The smell of fresh baked bread and dessert right out [...]

It’s lunch time, and we are HUNGRY!!!! A trip to Bellacino’s sounds like the perfect fix for a hungry office. Four of us decided to go out to lunch to this Pizza/Grinder heaven on Riverside Drive. The place was packed and smells from the huge, open kitchen were drifting through the restaurant. I could hardly [...]

On a cooler day last week I decided that it would be a perfect day to visit the Philbrook museum and the grounds.  We spent the morning enjoying the art as well as the amazing Philbrook mansion.  I had heard several good things about La Villa, the restaurant in the Philbrook, and so we decided [...]

Out to lunch for business, my coworker and I stopped by Fat Daddy’s Pub. He had been wanting to try it for years, yet for whatever reason had never managed to drop by. We showed up on a Tuesday which happened to be Cheap Taco Day. My coworker ordered the fish and chips and one [...]

If you are ever in the mood for some finger licking good barbecue then be sure to head on down south to “This is It!”, some of the best barbecue in Georgia. The brisket sandwich was amazing with perfectly spicy barbecue sauce on grilled Texas toast. The macaroni and cheese was a perfect mixture of [...]

Upon arriving at the Taste of Bixby, I was excited about the event. I was a little less thrilled when I walked in the door having already paid $22 on this event that had been advertised as $15 on the Chamber of Commerce website. Now don’t get me wrong I don’t mind paying the $22, [...]

This Restaurant is closed, but enjoy the review! I just moved to Tulsa from Oklahoma City. Every Sunday in OKC, masses of people head out for what we call “brunch.” True brunch consists of great food and most importantly, MIMOSAS! When I got to Tulsa, I started asking around for the local brunch places and [...]

Out for an afternoon drive, a friend and I stumbled across Freddie’s Hamburgers (not to be confused with the Freddie’s Frozen Custard chain). Freddie’s had been recommended from several different people on Tulsa Food and so we decided to stop in. The building is not much to look at but reminiscent of a grandma’s house [...]

With Mayfest finally here, we are super excited to try all the amazing foods that Mayfest has to offer. Here are just a few of the amazing food you can get at Mayfest: ’¢ Flowering Onion ’¢ Jalapeno sausage on a stick ’¢ Curly Fries ’¢ Rootbeer Floats ’¢ Grilled Cuban Sandwich ’¢ Jumbo Corn [...]

After hearing several people rave about The Great Wall, I had to give it a shot. The building itself is nothing special with a smell that is a little musty and in desperate need of a coat of paint. The staff was very nice and helpful though. For starters we ordered some of their homemade [...]

I met up with a friend at his favorite burger joint Arnold’s Old Fashioned Hamburgers. It is definitely a dive with that greasy felling that you would expect at a hole in the wall burger joint. The food is so good though. I had a double cheeseburger, onion rings and a chocolate malt. The burger [...]

Diamond Jack’s has been serving Tulsa since 1965 and I am still surprised at the number of people who are not familiar with this fantastic sandwich spot. Due to the widening of I-44, they have moved from their longstanding spot along 51st southward to a cozy spot near 71st and Yale. They are tucked back [...]

Upon the recommendation of my boss I decided to give Firehouse Subs a shot. I had never heard of it before and its nondescript location next to Gold’s gym had caused me to overlook it in the past. The whole place is decorated in firehouse theme. They give you the option of having your sub [...]
