Tulsa Food

1988. President Reagan was sending aid to our allies, including a young man named Osama bin Laden, to fight the Soviet Union in Afghanistan. If you had a great time at the bar and wanted to share it, you’d snap some photos, rush to the store to have the film developed, and then run to [...]

In MY (picky) opinion, there are three PERFECT Caesar Salads to be found in Tulsa, with the perfect marriage of garlic and lemon, plenty of tang from the proper use of mustard & Worcestershire, and no added “stuff” that would make it, in my book not a “real” Caesar (cream, tomatoes bacon etc…). One such [...]

Yeah, I know what your thinking…. I do eat salads (not just burgers and tacos), as a matter of fact you can find some dang good salads at many locally owned Tulsa restaurants. You may consider a green journey this Spring after browsing these Tulsa salads. Many make their own unique dressing and use very [...]

Brassy, opulent, welcoming, its walls painted a gutsy bordello red, Ella’s Good Food is a brand-new place that feels like it’s been there forever. You could almost believe that (like Nelson’s Buffeteria) it started 80 years ago as a diner and turned into a speakeasy. You can almost feel the presence of the ghosts of [...]

A narrow upward-sloping path, the sun blazing down. The path is white and dusty, everything is white with heat-wave shimmer, the sun is fierce. There’s a scent of thyme in the air from Mount Hymettus, and the constant whirr of cicadas. You reach the top of the hill and gleaming white columns sparkle against the [...]

The holiday weekend has arrived, and at my house that will mean 3 things. 1.The pool will be put to good use. 2.The grill will be put to VERY good use. 3.At some point over the weekend I will want something quick, easy and cooling to eat. Salad is an obvious choice, but why stick [...]

For a woman, few things are better than shopping and dessert. I love a day when I have lunch with a friend, enjoy a few hours of shopping at my own pace and top it all off with dessert in the afternoon followed by a nap. Lunch is best when it’s spur-of-the-moment, but since The [...]

Dining at the Global Table: Argentina Think Oklahoman’s like their moo? Check this out… the average Argentine consumes 2-4 servings of beef per meal, making their per capita beef consumption double America’s. Not surprisingly, they have one of the highest rates of heart attack and stroke per capita. On Saturday I ignored these red flags [...]

I was very excited to try Nibbles Cafe on Memorial. I have heard good things about their cakes, especially wedding cakes. It was mid-week, and my friend and I wanted to meet up for lunch. When it is a “girlfriend lunch”, I enjoy going to cute place with a lot of personality and good food. [...]

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, [...]

I never really expect to find a hidden treasure inside of a grocery store, but my perception changed this past week when I got invited to a business meeting in a very unusual place. When I first got the phone call to have a lunch meeting at Reasor’s grocery store in Jenks I thought to [...]

Hammett House, in Claremore, is one of those restaurants that is absolutely worth the drive out to Suburbia. The Hammett House has been a Claremore staple since 1969 and remains the ultimate restaurant in the area to get “Down-Home Cooking”. The Hammett House is one of those hidden gems in the Tulsa area that you [...]

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 [...]

If you want to try something different, here’s a suggestion from a guy who works in the restaurant supply business, so I know restaurants intimately both front and back side. The Thai Garden Restaurant located just west of Elm on 71st in Broken Arrow,  has not only a very immaculate  kitchen, they also offer a [...]

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 [...]

If you are looking for a healthy alternative this summer consider throwing some shrimp on the grill. These shrimp were coated in Lowery’s Baja Chipotle sauce, grilled to perfection and then placed on this colorful salad. This is a delicious healthy meal that is still BOMB!

We went to Baja Jack’s Burrito Shack. I had the the quesadilla with guacamole and my husband had some kind of wrapped up chicken and a salad that didn’t look like a salad to me – beans and corn etc. Mine was delicious but I anticipated from years of experience that my husband would not [...]

The first time I went to Andolini’s I was impressed by their menu and glad to have a specialty pizza place in nearby Owasso. Since then I have been back a few times and it seems as if the service there has steadily decreased. The food is still good though, they offer several appetizers like [...]

Before even setting foot into Lola’s, one can’t help but notice the unique logo, and the unique interior design is even more intriguing. The doors and windows are etched with a Dia de los Muertos (Mexican celebration to honor loved one’s passed away, translated in English to ’day of the dead’) skull sporting a decorated [...]

I was a beautiful day in Tulsa and a co-worker and I took a walk down to Joe Momma’s Pizza Downtown Tulsa at 112 S Elgin and what a great idea it was. I was not only so excited that it wasn’t cold outside but I was finally getting to go to Joe Momma’s I [...]

In such a busy part of town, Cosmos is still undiscovered by many who frequent the saturated chaos that is 71st and Memorial. Cosmos doesn’t do a lot of advertising; however they provide catering and do a lot of charity work which is very important to co-owner, Miranda Kaiser. Most of Cosmos popularity is likely [...]

Food Blog Submitted by Carrisa http://andsosheblogs.com When my best gal friend and I decided we’d go out for lunch this past Friday, we had one place in mind. Gaetano’s Pizzeria & Creamery at 121st & Elm in Jenks. Being that we work in Jenks, we are always beyond thrilled when a new place opens up [...]

On a short trip to Stillwater we decided to have dinner at Eskimo Joe’s. Everyone has seen their shirts in the mall, but not as many people have taken the short trip to Stillwater to eat at the restaurant. Located right off of OSU’s old campus, Eskimo Joe’s is still in their original building. Having [...]

Post Submitted by Caren My Husband & I were celebrating our 39th Wedding Anniversary. My Son & Daughter-in-law were celebrating their 11th Wedding Anniversary. Our anniversary is on the same day so they told us about how they had eaten at Doe’s before and it was really good. We thought it was kinda pricey, but [...]

It’s a casual Italian hot spot with all the usual’s one would expect to find, pizza, pasta, ravioli and lasagna. However Bellacino’s also offers 24 unique “grinders” which greatly contributes to the popularity of this establishment. Grinders are basically subs on steroids, they come in 9″ and 18″ and are sure to satisfy. The sandwich [...]

The Spudder is under new ownership!!! Please read their NEW Review Here! New Times at The Spudder Steakhouse Please, please save your money and go somewhere else. I had one of the strangest dining experiences of my life at this dwindling place of business. To start off, the wait staff was exceptional, but weary of [...]
