Here's my list from last year.
There are several good places within a few miles of Expo Square and close to area motels. Some of my favourites are Crackle Barrel, Villiage Inn, Lotta-Burger, Coney Island, Mac's Chili and of course the Cherokee Casino, open 24 hrs, great breakfast, lunch and dinner buffet's. A note for all those depending on Denny's for food....forget it, they are all shut down in Tulsa. There are many other good places and I'm sure there will be numerous responses to this post. Enjoy your stay in Indian Territory. Correction, Ike's Chili, not Mac's. On Admiral Blvd, between yale and sheridan. Also, for good BBQ at reasonable prices, The Rib Crib, closest location to Expo is on Harvard between 15th and 21st, just west of Expo. **Many recommendations for Ike's** http://www.albertgs.com/ Albert G's BBQ 2748 S Harvard **Many recommendations** Los Cabos in Broken Arrow has awesome mexican. Located right by Bass Pro Shops. http://www.loscabosmexicangrill.com/ Texas Roadhouse is on 71st, A great place at a good price is Free Way Cafe on 4th and Sheridan. Jamils has moved to a new location. It is at 3823 E 51st St, Tulsa, OK 74135-3603 (918) 742-9097 Pizza: Papa Johns, Brothers Pizza at 101st and Sheridan Tally's on 11th and Yale. **Multiple recommendations** Delta Cafe on 41st and Garnett My wife's uncle, who lives in Tulsa, shot me this list of good eats. Best BBQ ribs. West on 21st street to Harvard (about 1/2 mile). South on Harvard to Albert G's. West side of Harvard, in a one-time service station. Also, try the tabouli. Choice of sweet or hot sauce. Goldie's Gourmet char-burgers. West on 21st toward the hospital, west of Lewis. About 1 1/2 miles from the Chili Bowl. Goldie's on north side of 21st. Superb burgers. Or, Goldie's on north side of 31st, west of Yale. About 3 blocks. Same people and menu. Gourmet bakery, Danish, brownies, and the like. Merrit's bakery on 15th street, south side, about a block west of harvard. Best bakery in Tulsa, by far. Best Danish in the state. Old-fashioned greasy-spoon burgers on Harvard, about a block or so south of 21st. Brownies. (May or may not be in business at that time, owner is dying but hanging in there.) If you go there, save room for pie. There is an Amish restaurant on Harvard, south of 31st, east side. Edge of the parking apron of the Homeland grocery store. Old-fashioned dinners. Also, a popular Thai buffet on about 32nd street. Inexpensive, all-you-can-eat buffet. In a little strip mall, east of Harvard, north side of the street. There is a decent family-owned place on 11th and Yale, Talley's. Old-fashioned diner, good omelets. Good food all around. There is an inexpensive Mexican place on west side of Harvard near Brownies. Good menu. These are some of the better non-chain, locally-owned places. The sort that the natives know about, and superior to just about any chain. If your hungry for a real steak dinner and also plain hungry, then Jamil's is your choice. On 51st street, north side, east of Harvard. Almost due south of the Chili Bowl. BTW, Jamil's is one of those places with autographed pictures of local celebs. e.g., picture of Oklahoma football coach Barry Switzer hangs in Jamil's. (Switzer is also a fan of Goldie's -- he owns the one in Norman, Ok.) Don't go there if you are not half-starved. **Many recommendations** Zio's Italian Restaurant... best Italian I've ever had. The pepperoni bread is definitely worth the trip to Oklahoma! Last year someone referred us to Elmer's BBQ (4130 S. Peoria) through this same topic - great BBQ and we will go back again this year! Another new restaurant we tried for breakfast was a place called Jimmy's Egg. Great breakfast and service. There's a few locations in Tulsa.

If you want some awesome Asian food, go to Viet Huong. It is due East of the fairgrounds 2 miles on 21st just west of Memorial. It looks like a ******** outside but it's the best I've ever had. It is Vietnamese, however they also do Chinese. Dad owns the place, mama cooks and the daughters (who are HOT) wait tables. I NEVER go to Tulsa without eating there at least once or twice. As I tell people, Imagine if your grandma was Asian, that's how good it is!!!
Seafood - White River Fish Market. It is the best and freshest seafood in town that is flown in daily. It's not in the nicest area in town, but it is PACKED every day for lunch. Go 3/4 of a mile North of Pine St on Sheridan, it will be on the left right before the RR tracks. Hamburgers - Hanks Hamburgers...It's on East Admiral Blvd. Go North from the fairgrounds 3 miles, turn right and go about 4 miles (at the bottom of the hill). In business for over 50 years.... The "Original Coney-I-Lander, awesome coneys....In business since 1927.... Ike's Chili House - In business since 1907.....Good stuff.....The direction given above are correct, I grew up 2 miles from there.... BBQ - Elmer's "It be Bad" BBQ......The best!!! It's at 42nd and Peoria. Go West from the fairgrounds to Peoria and make a left (South) and go a little over 2 miles, it's on the right. |
