The Tulsa Food Blog

Some food items may be a little harder to justify traveling long distance to indulge on. There are only a few dishes I will travel for if I hear they are the best in the area. Rarely do I get very excited about going across town for a hamburger because there are so [...]

I have never met someone that is not in some way on a search for good food.  From my experience, good food at a great value is hard to come by and unless you have an open mind sometimes this can be hard to accomplish. You have to be willing to take all recommendations and [...]

Corner Cafe might not be the ideal Valentine’s Day date. however, if you are looking for a bit of an adventure and an awesome chicken fried steak on Tulsa’s stretch of Route 66…this is your spot. For some, walking into Corner Cafe will give you a feeling that will make you want to walk [...]

Check out this delicious lunch special from Chicory & Chives. This is Cajun grilled shrimp with cheese grits. The shrimp is spicy and tender and the cheese grits are definitely more sophisticated than they seem. Loaded with flavor (and bacon), they are so light and fluffy. The sausage was an unexpected extra and was not [...]

Go south on Memorial, past the malls and the huge new Super Target, and somewhere south of 150th St the busy 6-lane highway becomes a sleepy country road. You’re not in Tulsa anymore. Around 168th St there’s a fork in the road, and what looks like a little low-slung wood farmhouse appears. That’s the Lazy [...]

Recently, after being out with the swine flu, I decided to follow the old adage and seek a cure by finding the hair of the dog that bit me, or in this case pig (admittedly, I should have sought out the gentleman who was next to me on that flight from Dallas to New York [...]

With summer slowly beginning to fade I decided to join some friends up on Grand Lake. After spending the day relaxing on the waterfront, we went swimming and then went hiking down a spillway and then began to walk back through Disney, Oklahoma to the starting point of our trek. After all the [...]

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 [...]

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 great [...]

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 [...]

After hearing several people rave about The Great Wall, I had to give it a shot. The building itself is nothing special with a smell that is a little musty and in desperate need of a coat of paint. The staff was very nice and helpful though. For starters we ordered some [...]

I met up with a friend at his favorite burger joint Arnold’s Old Fashioned Hamburgers. It is definitely a dive with that greasy felling that you would expect at a hole in the wall burger joint. The food is so good though. I had a double cheeseburger, onion rings and a chocolate [...]

Ever since I fell in love with my first Baja taco in Rosarito Baja, California I have been on a quest to find the best carne asada tacos in Tulsa. Last weekend, I believe, was the end of my quest. If you didn’t know this Tulsa has a taco stand row where you [...]

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 [...]

In need of a quick lunch my co-workers and I stopped in for a bite at Ty’s hamburgers. The place itself is nothing impressive with plain décor and the mom and pop feel to it. What was impressive was the line, 15 people deep at 11:15 on a Wednesday morning. The line [...]

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 [...]

Looking for a new place to meet, for a business dinner on Tulsa’s West side, I stumbled upon Ollie’s Station Restaurant. Ollie’s is right by the train yard and located on a corner that has been around since 1894. The entire restaurant is decorated with the railroad theme and there are electric trains [...]
