The Best American in Tulsa

Whiskey Barrel Saloon

★★★★☆ 4.1 (7) • $

"Looks like this place started getting livelier.Pew pew pew! I guess wear kevlar if you come here for a drink."

Henry Hudson's Pub

★★★☆☆ 3 (20) • $

"Great Service, Good Drinks, Great Prices on the Specials, Full of Smoke (which I hate)How do I pray that Oklahoma or OKC will pass a no smoking law in bars and restaurants like almost everywhere else in the US and the world... That said, this is a great local bar where every single patron has a cigarette and is smoking like a chimney. You will get lung cancer by hanging out here frequently... so you have been warned.... that said the drinks are good, the service is good and the specials are awesome... $1 - $1.50 beers... and half price apps late at night... People were nice... and they have darts and pool, everything a bar should have... all in all, it is a good place to go late night for a beer... or pool or anything else like that! 3 stars b/c of the smoke 4 stars without... bring a flashlight to find your way through the smoke however so you can find a table or see where you are going..."

Bison Steakhouse

★★★★☆ 3.9 (71)

"Food is always great here, the steaks are amazing. Never had a bad experience with the service and we've visited 5+ times by now! The ambiance is super casual, but the food is always great!"

The Wooden Spoon

★★★★★ 4.6 (175) • $$

"We walked in at noon and the wait was 45 mins. The hostesses and servers were courteous as people were standing and waiting and checking the wait list.The restaurant had a rustic open feel but what stood out for me were how the tables were widely spread out and therefore everyone had their own private space.The food ... I had the crispy mushroom burger with the baked beans. I looked at the beans and it's not what I had in mind until I took that first bite. It's sweet and the variety of beans made it so good! My niece ordered the chicken wrap and potato soup. They pan fried the outside crispy! Potato soup is a must. Creamy and full of flavor.It's a beautiful restaurant with outstanding service and the food is well with the wait!"

Sassy's BBQ and Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (131) • $$

"My first time trying and should have tried BBQ, since that is their brand. I love catfish and always looking for a new place, so did that. I won't say it was bad, but, it was just okay. It was little fingers and you got plenty. The hushpuppies were undercooked and raw in center and not something I will order again. The two sides did not meet my hopes. The baked beans, not what I would order again, they were almost good, but needed to have a little sugar for this southern girl. The loaded baked potato was chopped potatoes with cheese, bacon and something that made it funky to taste, not sure what it was, but they have created their own version of loaded bp and it is not mine. I did not finish the sides or the hushpuppies and am not left with any desire to return. I paid 19.00 plus tip for some catfish with not so good tarter sauce."

Nibbles Eatery

★★★★★ 4.7 (205) • $$

"Cute little sandwich shop that serves a yummy lunch. We split the Bruschetta and the Chicken Bacon Melt as well. Both were amazing! Jerry, our sever, was a delight. Will definitely come back if we make it back to Eureka Springs!"

Flo's Burger Diner

★★★★☆ 4.2 (120) • $

"Excellent hamburger and the french fries are seasoned perfectly. Everyone is always pleasant when you go in. And their food exceeds my expectations every time I order something."

Woodbridge Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.7 (49) • $

"Woodbridge is a solid place for a classic diner experience. It's not much to look at, but the food is good and so is the service. My partner and I like to come here for breakfast every once in a while, and they never disappoint! Good coffee that keeps coming and such yummy fluffy biscuits. Try the jalapeno gravy! I recently had the blueberry waffle which was perfectly golden and slightly crispy. You can tell they have a lot of regulars by the way they interact with the customers which is always a good sign to me too. I haven't had anything besides breakfast here, but they have quite a large lunch/dinner menu as well. Definitely worth a visit if you can get past the outdated decor/atmosphere!"

Hooker's Bar & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.7 (34) • $$

"This place is a Diamond in the rough! Great food phenomenal service!! Such a great vibe to this place! You won't be disappointed I promise!"

Red Door Grille

★★★★☆ 4.2 (72) • $$

"This menu made it so challenging to decide what to eat because it all looked so good! I'll definitely be back to try more, but the mac and cheese with shrimp was delicious! My friend got the beer battered fish and chips which is a fall special and said it was great too! The shrimp was seasoned so well, and I'm really intrigued by the rest of the menu"

Babe's Drive In

★★★★☆ 3.5 (55) • $

"Classic American diner food and atmosphere. Friendly workers and quick service. We'll be back!"

Bricktown Brewery

★★★★☆ 4 (50) • $$

"I have visited a few times because the food and service are excellent. They serve the Perfect Margarita and it is smooth and Perfect. Fish and Chips is consistently fresh and tasty as are the "chips" fries. I would like the coleslaw a little less dry but that is not a factor as I look forward to the main meal. Salads are full and fresh.The restaurant seems to be busy Friday night and Saturday nights so plan to visit accordingly. Pub like atmosphere but no rowdiness. Recommend this eatery and hope to see you there,"

Baxter's Interurban Grill

★★★★☆ 3.6 (86) • $$

"Props to Cathy B. https://www.yelp.com/user_details?userid=UJa_TdvLS4eBVWOjHEAA4Q for her post "For a case of the Monday's" https://www.yelp.com/topic/tulsa-for-a-case-of-the-mondays in the Tulsa talk threads because while I didn't have a case of those Monday's, I was all in for an inexpensive burger.Baxter's is suffering only from being too big for its location by about three times. Sure, it was a Monday evening but it was rather quiet tonight with only me and five other people while I was there. Bummer because a burger this good deserves a larger crowd.The burger? Solid. Served with smoked cheddar and a honey cured pepper bacon. A good portion of bacon on an eight ounce burger patty (that's a half pound!) with a toasted bun and the usual lettuce, pickles, tomato slices. I opted to sub out the fries for cole slaw (hooray, keto) but forgot to tell my waitress to hold the bun. Sorry to waste it, folks!Warm and friendly service, a nice comfortable place that I could see being a regular joint, and a very inexpensive burger. $6.99 plus the beer? That's a bargain.[Review 16031 overall - 46 in Oklahoma - 1536 of 2021.]"

Big M Marina Dock-N-Eat

★★★★☆ 3.6 (16) • $$

"Excellent burgers, cold beer, and fries. Appetizers are good too! We had mozzarella sticks, fried mushrooms, and alligator bites.My son was disappointed in shrimp po'boy sandwich ...but we figure people just don't know how to make them N of Louisiana ? And one menu item that someone wanted was sold out .Father in law enjoyed pork tenderloin sandwich. Sweet potato fries are good! They'd be better with something more fun than syrup for dipping. Family said waggle fries are good too.Prices and portions are good. Cleanliness, location, decor all a 5. Highly recommend the burgers!This is a must stop and enjoy place every year!"

All Star Cafe

★★★★★ 4.6 (8)

"5 stars for service!! They were so kind here and excellent service. I was the only one there for a late lunch and got the California club sandwich, which comes with fries. The facade outside may look a little weary but I had a great experience here and a nice filling meal. Plus I was surprised when they let me know dessert comes with lunch, so I got to try their bread pudding. It was served hot and was the cherry on top of a lovely lunch."

Bricktown Brewery

★★★★☆ 4.4 (94) • $$

"Since eating here two years ago. I've been here several times and it's been nothing but excellent! Everything from the front door to the bathroom's and in between. We're going to eat lunch at BTB today and I can't wait to get my second favorite blue ribbon burger!"

Patrick's Pub & Grill

★★★☆☆ 3 (15)

"Under NEW Management... And it shows!! Great little bar in Tulsa! Great specials! Hometown crowd! Chicken Fried Steak on Tuesday is worth coming in for!! We will be back!"

Arsaga's Mill District

★★★★☆ 3.9 (99) • $$

"Every time I'm in town, I have to go to Arsaga's for brunch. Their menu is comprised of unique dishes you don't see at every other brunch place, with some classics as well to satisfy the traditionalist. They keep the menu on the smaller side and do everything very well. Their coffee is also my favorite out of the whole of NW Arkansas, I always take a bag of beans home with me.In addition, the restaurant itself is aesthetically immaculate. If you go on a nice day, you really must sit on their back patio, it's a haven. Side note to management - I really wish you would bring back the orange rolls, they took me back to my childhood, and I crave them frequently. :')"

Destinations, Chandler Oklahoma

★★★★☆ 4.3 (47)

"Destinations restaurant is an awesome dive, Located in Chandler Oklahoma. This once was a gas station dating back to it looks like the 40s 50s the inside has been converted to a fun restaurant. I ordered chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes, green beans, brown gravy and white gravy. The breading on the chicken fried steak was very tasty, but the meat was not tender, it needed to be put through the tenderizer a few more times. Mashed potatoes for bland, the canned green beans - average. My sister ordered chicken fried steak, fried pickles & fried okra. and my nephew ordered Destination Burger and fries. The Okra and the fried pickles were delicious. My nephews who is a regular customer here ordered his usual the 'Destination burger' it's very good with the grilled onions, jalapeños and of course yummy bacon. The inside decor is great, ample seating and there is seating outside."

Hackett Hot Wings

★★★★☆ 4 (211) • $$

"A local favorite and very popular! The owners are from Memphis and make great wings with choice of both dry and wet rubs. I'm a fab of their basic "seasoned" wings but there are plenty of other choices. The pork chop sandwich is also popular. Large area in separate dining area with TV's for sports (get there early on popular game days) with a huge selection of beer and spirits to choose from. One of our go-to places at home!"

Bamboo Lagoon

★★★☆☆ 2.7 (10) • $$

"Enjoyed my salad but forgot the name. Really inexpensive at $4.95 and the atmosphere was nice with the music. The salad was an ice berg wedge with a few tomatoes to the side, topped with bacon, their dressing, but an overload of blue cheese. It was very overpowering due to the immense amount of cheese. I wouldn't order it again because it wasn't anything special. Also ordered a side of mashed potatoes because I couldn't resist! You can't really screw up on that and it was good! Had bites of my friends dishes and was not impressed. We ordered 2 desserts; the m&m/cookie/ice cream and the pineapple cake. Splurge an extra dollar for the pineapple dessert if you still have room to eat ($6). The cookie and ice cream you can make yourself. Nothing too special other than the laid back environment. I most likely won't come back but I encourage others to check it out!"

BlueJ's Rockin' Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (25)

"Wonderful reunion, try again the DELICIOUS French fries of BlueJ's Rockin' -now- Grill, outside the truck and in such a cool place. It's fantastic. Now instead of looking for them in the city, just come to downtown Edmond to enjoy their dishes."

Cowpoke's Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.2 (71) • $

"Pretty good breakfast experience here while driving back to OKC from Lake Eufaula. It seemed to be the only place worth stopping on the way, so I was excited to give it a try! Nothing too special or out of the ordinary diner experience here, but I enjoyed my huevos rancheros and my partner had the biscuit scramble which was also delicious. Unfortunately they didn't have waffles that day which we wanted to try or any other sweet type breakfast items. The service was very good with friendly staff. Since we went for breakfast I can't speak to any of the lunch/dinner items, but seems like a decent place to me!"

Alfred's Mediterranean Grill

★★★★★ 4.5 (28)

"Used for catering. Food is so so good. Paid an arm and a leg for it but it was more than enough for everyone and people left our home raving about the juiciness of the kababs. Will be back again and again! Service and punctuality are exemplary. My husband gave them a tip just for being such wonderful people."

Mary's Grill

★★★★★ 4.6 (73) • $

"Had the spud and brisket and loved every bite. Salad was fresh and delicious. Been traveling a lot and this food was best I had in months,"

Frank & Lola's

★★★★☆ 4 (255) • $$

"One of your basic staples in small town Oklahoma. A lot of different burgers, a couple salad dishes, pasta dishes, a little pork, a little fish.I had the Johnny burger, which is a basic smash burger with jalapeño cream cheese. Fries are a little limp for my style, but average. So far in my experience, they mostly do smash burgers in Bartlesville. I haven't seen a medium or rare patty anywhere.I had a couple cocktails. One refreshing, one sweet and heavy. Busy around 7 PM, was cleared out by 8. I got seated immediately. Staff was attentive.This is an average restaurant. Will try again, but nothing mind blowing so far. They reportedly have a famous bread pudding, which I had planned to try, but the server brought me my check before I was able to ask for it. You're supposed to ask for it about 20 minutes ahead of time because it's made to order.Prices moderate. As others have said, don't expect substitutions. It's written expressly on the menu. Yes, all condiments are extra. Doesn't bother me, but may bother some.Will revisit my rating when I try again."

59 Diner

★★★★★ 5 (4)

"Yum!! Had a cheese burger - quite tasty, moist and juicy and the bun was nicely toasted so not soggy! Friend had a patty melt - excellent patty (1/3 #) and lots of perfectly cooked onions! Highlight - The tots were fab! Hot and crispy!! The pies looked amazing!! Service was prompt and friendly. Ambience- Don't get dressed up! This place is no frills - lots of patriotic decor and vintage soda bottles. But that's not a down side! The parking is a bit sketchy - you may have to run across the highway. But for this good of food, I'm happy to play irl Frogger!"

Dogwood Canyon Mill & Grill

★★★★☆ 4.1 (37)

"The grill was a wonderful stop in our Spring Break trip to Dogwood canyon. We purchased a package ticket that included $25 toward anything.... As a foodie family we chose lunch of course!! As I was looking through pics we were saddened we didn't get a picture of the ENORMOUS Fried Chicken sandwich.... But please note.... It was HUGE and my daughter ate every bite, not sure how it fit into her tiny body! The rest of the family stuck with the bison burger. We chose some pink and each burger was tender, juicy and wonderful!! A couple had no pink, but our waitress Bree (hope that's right) was quick to make it right ;-). I have celiac and they were wonderful accommodating my gluten allergy. Gluten free bread was super good, I couldn't eat all of it!! This stop was a luxury, but a luxury we will most likely visit again! We took a tram tour at 9:30 and stopped in for lunch right after. It was the perfect pairing time wise."

Route 66 Cafe

★★★★★ 4.5 (91) • $

"This is an amazing small dive. The cobbler is worth a stop! We had the special--meatloaf. Amazing."

Prairiefire

★★★★★ 4.5 (230) • $$

"Great local place in an old Katy Railroad depot. We dined here during an overnight road trip stop and found the Food and service to be wonderful. We dined at the bar along side a colorful set of local residents who basically told us what to order... and they were spot on in their suggestions. My husband had the pork chops, I had the salmon, and we both raved about the food - wonderfully spiced and expertly prepared. Such a treat! Like everywhere, PrairieFire is struggling with a shortage of staff and supplies. Even so, service was very pleasant and not rushed. This locally owned, woman owned business is deserving of your business! I wouldn't hesitate to return and neither should you!"

5th Street Bar & Grill

★★★★☆ 4 (24) • $

"The service was superb! Talked with 4 year bartender and she was awesome! She kept my drinks on full. I want to thank the nice lady for taking great care of us... Miller Lites were ice cold. The atmosphere was awesome! Sports were on Pool league was upstairs....I will definitely return when in Pittsburg again. It's a great place to be. Thank you for being awesome!RespectfullyBryan OKC"

Myrtie Mae's

★★★★☆ 3.9 (189) • $$

"Stopped at the restaurant when driving through Eureka Springs area. Was very clean. Comfortable atmosphere, not too loud, though I bet when it gets busy it's hoppin'. Got the turkey club, split onion rings and fries with hubby, and salad bar. Sandwich was exactly how I'd make it at home, with crispy bacon and Swiss. Beer battered onion rings were fabulous. Fries were crispy goodness. Nice little salad bar with good options. Service was excellent. Left totally full and wishing we lived closer."

Cafe 501

★★★★☆ 4.1 (230) • $$

"Sunday brunch with friends at Cafe 501 in Edmond. The restaurant is fun, upbeat, with a nice vibe. It' s in an old building with a modern decor inside.We started with Bloody Marrys. I believe the one we ordered is named Barcelona Bloody Marry. They had hot sauce added, which gave them just a little "kick." Thoroughly enjoyed them.I ordered the black bean quasadiaa. It's not your usual quasadiaa that you find in TexMex restaurants. The presentation is different, in a good way. It is hearty and flavorful. I thoroughly enjoyed it, but I was unable to eat all of it.Jan ordered the Hueavous Ranchero. It too is very robust and hardy. She thoroughly it, but was unable to finish it.The noise is low-moderate. The service was slow."

Texas Roadhouse

★★★★☆ 3.5 (111) • $$

"The food is always great, the staff is always friendly and the mood is always a vibe!!! Texas Roadhouse is well oiled machine that creates the perfect recipe for delicious steak and house maid sides!"
