Tulsa Food

Dining at SMOKE on Cherry Street provides a unique execution of otherwise ordinary dishes. With a locally grown focus and a high standard for the finest quality of food you can expect nothing but excellence from SMOKE. Not your ordinary salad, the Bacon and Egg salad is full of goodies like Frisee lettuce, Goat Cheese, [...]

Ardmore, Oklahoma. 7 AM. The day after Thanksgiving. All the fast-food places along Route 35 were barely getting by. Jimmy’s Egg was full. Full of big burly guys. Beards and overalls, farmers and truckers. Serious eaters. For years I’d wanted to try Jimmy’s in Tulsa, and I figured that if the Ardmore Jimmy’s, with the [...]

I have been eating at Bellacino’s for about 3 years now. Up until this week, I’ve been preoccupied with their selection of grinders. Not exploring a restaurant’s menu is the very thing that I try to avoid. Bellacino’s variety of  specialty pizzas and ingredients really impressed me, but what got me even more excited were the [...]

Soooo….what does the Wench love *almost* as much as CHEESE? PIG. All things pig. Bacon, chops, loin, trotters, belly, cheeks, shanks… you name it. Where is her favorite place to get great pork? Close to home. Meet Some of My Favorite Meat My friend Stephen Green is awesome. He is a husband, a father and [...]

I couldn’t believe my eyes and my taste buds when I first bit into the Black and Blue burger at Backyard Burger. Did I just order this burger in a drive-through? Yes I did, however, this burger was everything opposite of what you would expect to find at a drive-through burger joint. If you don’t [...]

One of my favorite dishes, Biscuit & Gravy, is a southern dish normally eaten for breakfast and the comfort it bring me is second to none. Those of you that know me understand that my love for hamburgers is rooted in my soul. Last weekend, at opening night of the new Duke’s Southern Kitchen in [...]

The burger I’ve been hooked on at Billy’s since opening has been their Theta Burger. For those not from Oklahoma, a Theta burger is a burger topped with mayo, pickles, shredded cheddar cheese, and a hickory bbq sauce. These items in combination make an amazing burger. Billy’s version of the Theta keeps it classic with [...]

The New Atlas Grill is located in the beautiful nationally registered art deco 12 floor Atlas Life Building, built in 1922. The Atlas Life Coffee Shop operated since its opening but went by the way side over the years. In the mid 1990’s Matt and Brooke Kelly (who now own and operate Lucky’s Restaurant) opened [...]

Some will look at this beautiful display of glutton with disgust and others will want to eat it off the screen… I am an “other”. I would like to introduce you to a creation that has made me a happy man many-a-mornings. This I call the bacon sausage waffle with butter on top. You may [...]

There has been some news floating around in a local daily newspaper stating that Fire Rock Grill at 71st & Memorial was closed.  We just got back from lunch at Fire Rock and let me tell you that it was delicious and certainly not closed.  If you read anything stating that Fire Rock is closed, [...]

Here is a Tulsa Food Talk round up for your Friday afternoon enjoyment. If you don’t know about Tulsa Food Talk checkout the section under this post which explains Tulsa Food Talk. In my mind it’s like a foodie Talk blog or micro food blog for short form discussion on-the-go. Even cooler than that is [...]

Baxter’s is a branch off the original Interurban Grill, but Owner Craig Baxter has made this restaurant his own personal creation in Downtown Tulsa. Interurban Restaurants began in 1976 when the Founders opened in Norman’s abandoned Interurban Trolley Station. Interurban is a casual and fun concept featuring a wide variety of menu items catering to [...]

Sweet, Salty, Crispy, Crunchy.  These are a few words describing the amazing new trend of Chocolate Covered Bacon.  Who knew you could have all in one?? A mouthwatering collaboration of down home cooking and big city living all in one!  Not to mention it is on a stick, easy to eat, and extremely tasty!  Make [...]

Vrrrooommm Vrrrooommm…Road Trip! After an afternoon drive to Oklahoma City and a visit to my Alma-mater, UCO, in Edmond, we decided to take an alternate route and head down Route 66 making our way back to Tulsa.  As we drove down this famous historic roadway, we recalled that this road was the main form of [...]

A group of friends and I have been anxiously awaiting the release of The Time Traveler’s Wife, the movie. So naturally we made plans to go and see it the day that it came out last Friday night. I met up with my friends in Owasso and we decided to try Arris Pizza before the [...]

This homemade ooey-gooey breakfast sandwich exceeds the McGriddle by far!  Cinnamon rolls made into French toast creates the foundation of this unique beauty.  The middle consists of Crisp applewood bacon drizzled in thick maple syrup atop a layer of pecan halves and fresh strawberries.  All ingredients were purchased at Tulsa’s own Reasor’s grocery paradise.  Mmmmmm…. [...]

The Brook Restaurant and Grill Loaded Cheese Fries, more like Brook loaded mountain of fries, Cheese, Bacon and Jalapenos, mmhmmm. One order of these will set you up for the next 2 meals if not more (see the link below to our leftover video). The Brook Restaurant is a great place that you can always [...]

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 [...]
