A Magical Dining Experience at Michael V’s Restaurant

September 8th, 2011 by Brian McCullough – Comments (6)

I found myself in many conversations with fellow foodies, chefs and restaurant owners about the food and service that is, “magical” over at Michael V’s Restaurant on 103rd and Memorial. I thought to myself, surely I would have been here sooner if it were that good. I later found out that I have, only it [...]

A Contender for Best Catfish at 2 Brothers Bistro?

July 21st, 2011 by Brian McCullough – Comments (3)

Head down Memorial Drive just past the Arkansas river in Bixby to find catfish greatness, and I’m not talking about noodling it out from the river. I’m talking about a small bistro that serves up an all-you-can-eat catfish feast ($9.99) every Friday night from 5-8p.m. Cajun, regular or both, that’s what we did. I like [...]

Get a Guided Tour of Southern Cooking at Duke’s Southern Kitchen

January 28th, 2011 by Brian Schwartz – Comments (4)

I once told a top food critic that a great new restaurant was opening next week. I thought he’d be thrilled to be there on opening night. No, I’ll go in a month or two, he said, give ‘em time to work out the kinks. I should have done that with Duke’s. Though we got [...]

Eat like a Warrior at Genghis Grill

October 14th, 2010 by Brian McCullough – Comments (18)

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 [...]

Rex’s Chicken – Just Great Chicken (and Fry Bread)

October 7th, 2010 by Brian McCullough – Comments (10)

Memories have a way of becoming a bit foggy, and if you haven’t noticed, things we remember tend to get idealized beyond what they were in realty. That’s why I wasn’t sure what to expect when I paid a visit to Rex’s Chicken recently. The brand has recently been revived by Beautiful Brands International in [...]

Taste of Bixby – Food, Food and More Food

June 4th, 2010 by Staff – Comments (4)

One thing that is obvious is that we at Tulsa Food eat out a lot.  One thing that’s normal is me feeling unfulfilled after eating at just one restaurant in one night.  For me, one of my foodie fantasies is to eat from multiple delicious restaurants back-to-back.  The Taste of Bixby Event this year fulfilled [...]

Same Quality Ice-Cream, Now Stadium Subs & Cream

May 21st, 2010 by Staff – Comments (2)

If you are wondering why your favorite ice-cream shop is missing it’s sign, and if your favorite ice cream shop is Maggie Moos, fear not. Tulsa’s four area Maggie Moos franchise locations are not going away. Rather, longtime owner/operator Mary-Ann Brinton is transforming these locations into a non-franchised, fast and casual concept called Stadium Subs [...]

Jake’s Place BBQ: Where Smiles Come with BBQ Sauce

April 9th, 2010 by Brian McCullough – Comments (48)

Tulsa area, home of the BBQ lover, including myself…home of the BBQ joint which now includes Jake’s Place BBQ. Moving to Tulsa for me meant a lot of things: beautiful rolling hills, nice people and of course the wet, sticky-icky BBQ. I have eaten at a lot of Tulsa staples, many of them being very [...]

Crispy, Steamy Beef at Scott’s Hamburgers

February 26th, 2010 by Brian McCullough – Comments (13)

Some food items may be a little harder to justify traveling long distance to indulge on. There are only a few dishes I will travel for if I hear they are the best in the area. Rarely do I get very excited about going across town for a hamburger because there are so many mouthwatering [...]

Some of Tulsa’s best BBQ is adding an Express location to South Tulsa / Bixby. Next time you drive down Memorial past the Spirit Bank Event Center you might notice that the old Copper Town Coffee drive-through is being transformed into an Elmer’s BBQ Express. So what exactly does that mean? That means that the [...]

June 5th, 2009 by Staff – Comments (0)

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, [...]

Clubhouse: So-so on a Sunday

February 26th, 2009 by missfoodie – Comments (2)

CLUBhouse seems to be the IT restaurant of South Tulsa right now. So I thought I’d give it a try after hearing about it from everyone at work. I was surprised upon arriving that the restaurant was quite slow for a Sunday night. The atmosphere was relaxed and family oriented. After standing by the door [...]

Indigo Joe’s in South Tulsa

July 23rd, 2008 by Brian McCullough – Comments (1)

Indigo Joe’s in South Tulsa is an awesome sports pub and restaurant. It’s a place where you can gather with friends, or bring the family for a dinner out. My last experience there was really good. I ordered the burger, and I’m telling you this burger was like a hockey puck! The burger was so [...]
