Hebert’s is world-famous. People in Cajun-deprived locales such as New York and California order Hebert’s Turduckens and Alligator Dips on the Internet. For years I’d wanted to try their Turducken, which is a chicken crammed inside a duck with a turkey wrapped around it. Finally I did, and it was something of a disappointment. But [...]

Sometimes dinner out on the town just isn’t enough. Sometimes dinner at home just isn’t enough. Sometimes both just don’t cut it. This thought often crosses our mind as we’re sure it crosses your mind, well when it does we have a solution for you. The Stock Pot is a unique way to celebrate amazing [...]

The Canebrake is having a Crab Boil and Beer Tasting this Friday (May 21st) and has only a few spots left! This would make a great date night or time out with friends on the patio.  There will be a Beer tasting from 5:30-7:00 p.m. and an all-you-care-to-eat Seafood Buffet from 6:00-9:00 p.m. If it [...]

“Ninety percent of our customers are Oriental,” said the owner. “They want authentic food and they’ll know if we don’t serve them the best.” We were sitting in a tiny, gleaming-clean restaurant way out east near Mingo waiting for the owner’s husband. He’s the chef but he’d gone to pick up their daughter from school. [...]

After a good exercise, I find that nothing beats getting a Mexican Shrimp Cocktail (Camaron Cockteles). For those unaware of such a creation, it is not unlike a traditional shrimp cocktail, except the Mexicans put these shrimps in a more of a soup like base than a cocktail sauce on the side. Similar taste but [...]

Valentine’s Day is a special time to really show what you are made of to your spouse. This year we are really challenging you to go above and beyond to express one thing…that’s Love. We know that Tulsa isn’t the city of love, however, there are many locally owned romantic restaurants that are sure to [...]

The Polo Grill is one of the most decorated and revered restaurant in Oklahoma having won multiple local, state and national honor for both their food and wine selections. One of the top meals I’ve ever had was at The Polo Grill in Utica Square consisting of the chef’s tasting menu a while back.   The [...]

Have you ever realized how lucky we are here in Tulsa? When it comes to seafood, we have some of the best in the country.  Bodean’s Seafood Market is flown in fresh twice per day and they get only the best from all around the world. Last week we were invited to a B.Y.O.L party [...]

With Oktoberfest and Halloween with the kids coming up, this might be the last weekend to get a nice romantic dinner in. Brian and I had the chance to visit Bodean Seafood Restaurant and Fish Market. Wow. I cannot believe this beautiful gem is tucked away in South Tulsa. This is definitely a fine-dining restaurant [...]

Cardigans is a great place tucked away on Lewis Avenue offering home-cooked food, great service and a calm atmosphere. Open for 16 years, Cardigans reminded me of a sports bar type atmosphere without all the noise. The walls were scattered with history derived from pictures of Tulsa, and how things used to be downtown. Deep [...]

I had never tried Jamaican food before, so Hibiscus was a new experience! I love the Jamaican culture, and sure enough, the restaurant resembled this culture to a T.  Dim lighting, very chill reggae music, warm colors, comfortable atmosphere and friendly free-spirited staff were all present. We went on a Wednesday night which is “open [...]

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 modern and [...]

In the mood for some really good salmon a friend and I decided after much deliberation to try Bone Fish Grill. I had never been there before but I had heard some amazing things from some very reliable sources. Though we briefly looked at the menu, once our waitress told us about their two for [...]

Are you looking for a way to support a good cause while meeting new people? On July 30 from 5 PM to close Carrabba’s Italian Grill is hosting their “Mix it up for MDA” Event. Admission is $15 and includes a sampling of four new appetizers in addition to one of three signature cocktails: Blackberry [...]

Every once in awhile you stumble upon a restaurant that completely opens an entire new door for you, when you least expect it. White Lion did that for me. A friend of mine had been talking about wanting to try the fish and chips at White Lion for months, so one Friday night 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!

I have always really enjoyed sushi but haven’t had a chance to explore the many different sushi restaurants in Tulsa. The only sushi I had had in Tulsa previously was at Tsunami Sushi and although the food was good the lack of management, service and atmosphere did not inspire me to return. So I was [...]

The Ale Haus is truly an unique restaurant experience. The atmosphere is warm, interesting, quiet and very inviting. The food is wonderful! They just rolled out a new menu and their daily specials list. One of my favorites is the Ruben Egg Roll appetizer! Wow! The London Broil is another one of my favorite entrees. [...]

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 [...]

After these comments were made on Tulsa Food Blog, I decided to try Haruno. It is a new Sushi place but also serves Korean food. According to Haruno’s website, it is a “Pan-Asia restaurant specializing in Japanese sushi and Korean cuisine.” The restaurant’s atmosphere had a fine dining feel and look without the formality or [...]

My wife and I got a nice surprise the other night. The in-laws offered to watch our babies and let us go out on a date!!! Not only that, but gave us a gift certificate to Red Lobster. When I think of Red Lobster, instantly I can taste those awesome cheese biscuits!!! I have not [...]
