Listen-up Football fans!  This contest is simple.  The Super Bowl is this Sunday, and we want to help you win some free food.  If you have not heard of Bellacino’s, I can personally tell you: it is the only place in Tulsa, that I know [...]

Its a beautiful morning, and I get a phone call from a good friend that is in town! She had just gotten out of class at OSU-Tulsa, and asks me if I would like to go to lunch today.  Since she is new to Tulsa, she asks if there is a place I recommend [...]

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. [...]

With a unique approach to creating and presenting some of the most beautiful dishes in town, executive Chef Justin Thompson decided to create one of the specials that will be available during Restaurant Week. We also had the pleasure to speak with manager Mark Shefield at Sonoma Wine Bar and Bistro. Located in [...]

Tulsa restaurant week 2009
Here is some exciting news!!! Tulsa’s Annual Restaurant Week befitting the Community Food Bank is Sept 13th-19th.

Sadly, according to the USDA, “Oklahoma is the eighth hungriest state in the nation and number seven in food insecurity, which means that the food intake of some household members is reduced and normal [...]

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 [...]

Out for an afternoon drive, a friend and I stumbled across Freddie’s Hamburgers (not to be confused with the Freddie’s Frozen Custard chain). Freddie’s had been recommended from several different people on the Tulsa Food Blog and so we decided to stop in. The building is not much to look at but reminiscent [...]

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 [...]

We needed a local restaurant for 10 special needs young people going to prom (and their entourage of proud parents, family members, teachers, sponsors, paraprofessionals etc) give or take 40 people. Napoli’s in Owasso fit the bill. They were very gracious and accommodating and in spite of the natural chaos caused by some of [...]

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 sombrero [...]

Although Tulsa has some amazing places to get pizza like Hideaway and Mazzios, sometimes I really get in the mood for some traditional Chicago deep dish pizza straight for The Windy City. For that there is only one place to go: Giordano’s. They started serving their deep dish pizza in 1974 and quickly [...]

Diamond Jack’s has been serving Tulsa since 1965 and I am still surprised at the number of people who are not familiar with this fantastic sandwich spot. Due to the widening of I-44, they have moved from their longstanding spot along 51st southward to a cozy spot near 71st and Yale. They are [...]

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 [...]

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 atmosphere in Ti Amo Ristorante Italiano reminds one of an upscale Italian restaurant that might have been frequented by the mob in the 1980’s and 1990’s. The high back semi circle booths provide privacy while still allowing you to take in the surrounding atmosphere, and the dim lighting gives an off an air of [...]
