Tally's Good Food Cafe

My bride decided we could stop at an antique mall as we were entering Tulsa, OK. We found Tallys Mall on Route 66, which was nice, but as I've found has nothing I like, sports cards and that's itBut, the prices for those are higher than eBaySo, attached to the mall is the Tally cafe. A classic 1950s dinner on route 66. The diner is indeed classic with two counters for dinning and lots of red vinyl booths and chairs at tables. They have a very large menu menu, with all the classic choices, plus daily specials.I wasn't terribly hungry and ordered their chili and beans bowl. It came with cheddar cheese, onions and fresh chopped tomatoes. It was so good, I'd forgot to take a picture to post.My bride ordered the Chili Frito plate. Which was good, too.We then split a peach cobbler. Not the best, was still good.The place was full of locals, so that speaks for favorable. I agree! Thanks

Simply outstanding food and service. We went on a Saturday mid morning and were seated immediately. The waitstaff were so helpful and personable and our drink order arrived almost instantly. On my wife's recommendation I tried my first Monte Carlo sandwich. Delicious! Overall there hasn't been a better family breakfast experience in memory, ever.

Tally's was once a favorite spot for breakfast, but hadn't eaten there in quite a while.WHAT THE HECK HAS HAPPENED TO THAT PLACE? Finally ordered after a long wait (despite the fact that restaurant was nearly empty). Food came out after another long wait- all but our toast, which we were told would be served in just a minute. As we ate the less-than-great food, there came a burning smell from the kitchen area and a cloud of smoke could be seen from that direction. A minute later, our absentee waitress brought two small plates of a black material to our table. The plates contained what was left of our toast order, with a huge pat of butter on top. As we sat there staring at the burnt offering, all the waitress could say was that sometimes their toaster could be difficult. She then proceeded to return to her seat at the counter where she had sat as our toast burned, eating a snack, drinking a large soft drink, and talking on her phone. When we were finished eating (everything except the burnt toast) our waitress was nowhere to be found, and we had to flag down another employee to provide us with our check. (By the way, it was $30 for two bacon & egg meals, with no drinks!) Needless to say, we don't plan on a return trip to this establishment!

Genuinely makes me sad to leave Oklahoma w how good this place is. THE FOOD THE SERVICE THE VIBES?? HELLO??? Will be booking a trip back just for the milkshake(Peep the diff outfits bc we came here multiple days lol)

The restaurant was decorated playful and fun inside. The first young girl with the long dark hair was extremely rude!! She was leading us to the back but we requested a table in the front so we can keep an eye on our company truck so apparently that made her mad and so when she brought my tea she actually SLAMMED it down in front of me where it actually spilled on me!! No apologies what so ever!! She shouldn't be in costumer service if she takes a simple request as an offense!! The other lady was nice but she made a joke about her co workers delivery of my drink and laughed it off. I will pass on EVER going there again!! I actually had to run to the bathroom and throw up after I ate some of the food, and of course the toilet handle was broke so I wasn't able to flush. I'm not sure if the gentleman that we saw there was the manager or owner but he seems very nice and a hard working man. Too bad that the rest were horrible!

I ordered the grilled cheese on Texas toast, because that sounded healthy. I added the tomato to it (the pickles were a bonus) and to make sure it was super healthy, I chose cole slaw as my side. Everything was delicious. I could not have been happier with my choices. I was with two friends and one had chicken and the other had something else, but I don't remember now. They both enjoyed their meals as well. The wait staff was pleasant and attentive and the prices were good.All-in-all, it was a really great experience and a very pleasant time was had by all. I'm including a picture of my sandwich.

Tally's is a "return if in the area restaurant". We usually go early for breakfast but this time enjoyed lunch there. Portion sizes were large, food was hot and as ordered. Pricing was reasonable. Waitress was on the ball keeping our party of five satisfied. If in the area, this iconic restaurant is a must visit!

This place is a historic treasure, and just like stepping into a T I M E M A C H I N E or time warp going back to the 50s-60s. Very cool posters of James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Elvis, 50s diners, and other emblems of that era adorn the walls. The chicken fried steak (I believe their signature dish) was excellent and I got the okra as a side. The lemon meringue pie was delish, and the substance they used to create the meringue is fascinating. Also the ice cream is not bad. Service was excellent, from a very friendly waitress that was easy to talk to. Definitely a must-visit spot when you are in Tulsa!

Very cool homemade food. The restaurant is a nice old time vibe that is nice to come in to. The servers were all nice and helpful very quickly and kindly. The food I ordered was very good too and it was so much that I actually asked for a to-go box to take half of it home with me. So that's a good thing for most people. You get a great bit of food for what you pay for.

Tally's was spectacular! Food, service and atmosphere was great. We ate breakfast and plan to come back next time we get down this way. Go there! You will not be disappointed!
