“I just had the best Coney of my life at 3:36 PM at Deans Coney Island! I grew up on Coney Islander in Tulsa. I love that place! I have tried (over the span of 25 years) hundreds of Coneys. There are 2 that have made the cut Reds in Claremore (he closed up shop to travel) and Deans Coney Island. Perfect experience“

“Great food & service at the lake!“

“Just ordered at the drive thru and the young man taking my order was awesome. I had a difficult order as I am picky and my order was made correctly and delicious thanks for the great service“

“The food is always fantastic. We were upset they ran out of bologna! Turkey is always delicious and yummy!! Ribs tender and really tasty and we all loved our ribs. Mac and cheese was not good at all tho. So dry and yuck. The link sausage had no flavor this time. Normally does. Thought I ordered sticky ribs but it was just ribs with sauce poured on top seemed to me. My Son said the pulled pork was really good. Hubby said his St Louis ribs were great! I think dining is better than take out from what I'm reading. We did take out past 2 times and maybe that's the issue. Not sure. Son got the side salad and as always was fantastic. They do have good salads there. I'll get that next time.“

“Amazing friendly and kind .Thank you ERIQ for your service and being a great person to us!!!!

Dietary restrictions: Alot of people have alpha gal including my son it would be nice to see like Turkey sausage or turkey links on the menu so that other people out there with it can eat here also“

“Great food and a fabulous waiter, Josh!!“

“Great food, great bartender! Justin was on point!“

“My mom (not vegan) wanted to go for Mother’s Day. I assumed their vegan items would be over priced and not worth it but we went for her. We got the 5 Course Grand Prixe Vegan Menu and OMG! I don’t think I’ve ever had better vegan food. Everything was incredible, they accommodate so many dietary restrictions (no cross contamination, gf, etc.) and although each course looks small we left feeling really full. The Chef even came by our table and chatted for a while to make sure we loved everything and the entire staff hand made & signed the sweetest Mother’s Day card for my mom. ❤️ They offer their vegan menu May-December and change their menu every month! Worth every single penny and we can’t wait to go back! @farmbar“

“Julie (our waitress) was incredible. Extremely polite, prompt and fast. Good was delicious and pricing can’t be beat. Highly recommend the chicken fried chicken (Julie recommended it to me and she was spot on). Will definitely be back next time I’m in Tulsa.“

“Had to try out Tulsas Oldest Restaurant, Had a delicious fresh beefy burger with a side of fries and chili! Take time to stop and try them!“

“Great food and service. Love the location too.❤️“

“Been eating at this place since back in the '90s. the food is always good. You walk in place your order pay and you can stand and wait on your food or you can go set a table and they'll bring it to you
They get a steady business for lunch so expect there to be a short line to wait in usually goes pretty quick
But if you like cony's and hot dogs this is the best place in Tulsa to get one
This is located in the Crystal City shopping center.“

“My friend has been urging me to come here for a long while, and I finally came 2 evening ago (so glad I did!) and had the autumn salad with balsamic, which was amazing. I’m back again tonight, and I’m having the fajita salad with jalapeño ranch. Both times I had with chicken and had great and fast service. Josie was patient and kind, answering all of my questions. I hope I can find one of these establishments closer to my home, in north Frisco or north Plano Texas. Would be great for a quick to grab lunch, especially when time is tight! Very generous portions. Lettuce and all ingredients were fresh and tasty and the dressings are great too! Note both pics were after I started in because they are so good! 🥗😋“

“Get down the Cherry Street Kitchen NOW!!! That burrito is BOMB!“

“If you are ever in Tulsa do not miss the Coney Island. Everything is incredible. The service, food, and atmosphere is out of this world. A lot of the heart of Tulsa is here.“

“Food and service is great, however when sitting in one of the booths I noticed dust along the wood where the plants were. I did inform the waiter who waited on us and he assured to let management know. Hopefully they've gotten better with the upkeep of the restaurant.“

“Absolutely fabulous service, food and atmosphere“

“This is our favorite location. Friendly staff, great food!“

“Jack’s is awesome. While I’m in Tulsa I eat there every week. Jack and Tana are very cool. I love the live music and the Wednesday special is the Bomb. See y’all when I’m back in town.“

“my daughter had her baby at Hillcrest and is in the nicu, we went and tried this place today it was amazing. The burgers and rodeo fries was the best. Very friendly service too. Recommend everybody go try it. thank you“

“We went today and the old menu is back and the food is incredible again. I had the Albuquerque Chicken, which has always been my favorite, and it was excellent. Can’t wait to go again.“

“My family was in Tulsa Christmas eve weekend. We came to see the Rhema Christmas lights on Friday and the gathering place park on Saturday (both amazing!). On our way out of town we needed to eat lunch before we drove back the KC, MO. I just did a Google search best restaurants near us. We enjoy finding places we have never been before and hopefully non chains while on road trips. Upon searching through a few the high amount of reviews along with the high amount of positive reviews took me to search the website. I was instantly intrigued by the menu and fresh cut fries always catches my eye! So we decided to go to the brook! We were NOT disappointed at all! First cute neighborhood lots of neat shops etc and the building looked cool. The workers were very nice and although busy were attentive. We started with queso and chips and after eating almost all of the queso were offered a 2nd cup for free! I ordered the ground beef taco wrap with fries, my husband got a SW chicken wrap with mashed potatoes and my son got Mac n cheese. No one was disappointed. The fries, mashed pot and Mc n cheese were all frsh and definitely homeade. my taco burrito was delicious and very big..enough for a 2nd meal the next day. My husband's was the same! My son loved his Mac! I would give this place 10 stars if I could!“

“I went here a few years ago. Before I moved. I was thinking about this place. I enjoyed the cleanliness and kind staff. I can’t wait to visit so I can come back.“

“Great food n great service.“

“Stopped in on a whim when we were checking out the Giants on Route 66. What a GREAT surprise! The chicken was HOT and crispy (as it should be), the roll was sweet and fresh, the fries were crispy, and the mac 'n cheese was tasty and super-cheesy. We'll DEFINITELY be heading back soon!“

“Food is always great, service is impeccable, especially if Brandi, Lana, or the owners daughter waits on ya. Saturday's brunch is plentiful and great tasting as well. Been going to this restaurant for years and will continue to do so.“

“My husband and I found this place by chance, we looked for a place to take out and the pictures looked good. Well, I’m so happy we did!! This is for sure going to be our spot for takeout/dine in.

We ordered the fish and chips and vegetables curry and they were both SO good! We stopped by to pick up our food and were amazed with how cool, beautiful the place is. Go and enjoy!!“

“The duck was cooked perfectly. Loved the food, service and ambiance .“

“Had the chance to eat at The Summit and it was quite the experience. The only way to eat here is you either have to be a member or be the guest of a member. There are two restaurants TH1RTYONE Kitchen on the 31st floor and The Penthouse on the 32nd floor. We ate at The Penthouse. For drinks, I enjoyed a hot toddy, which was really good. My partner had a hot tea with honey - he enjoyed it. Mae waited on us and she was absolutely fabulous! For an appetizer, we had the tuna tacos. Those were fabulous. I also ordered the warm spinach salad, which was scrumptious. For dinner, my partner had the duck and I had the ribeye. They were both delicious. My favorite part of my dish was the Brussels sprouts - they were so good! For dessert, we both had a affogato. It was a nice finish to a lovely evening. If you have the opportunity to check this place out, do. Nothing beats the view!“

“Time to try yet another Burger place.
I heard some friends make some fuzz and told me this was a good burger place.

I reluctantly made my way here since I was not in the mood for a burger but I came anyway. I figured that if the burgers are as good as they claim, there should be no problem with me enjoying it. Even if I am not in the mood for one.

Right from the get go, the curb appeal is awesome and exciting. The restaurant looks and feels fun. The bar is placed right in the middle between the outdoor and indoor areas; what a clever idea to be able to make the bar accesible no matter where you are in the restaurant.

We chose to sit inside. Immediately our waitress made her way and greeted us which such charm. She introduced herself with a big smile and offered us drinks. I wanted no alcohol, just a soft drink will do. The menu was straight and to the point.
We picked burgers, mine was the OKIE my daughter picked the Sliders.

As we waited, I took the time to observe the flow of the restaurant. The staff seem seasoned and efficient. The manager appeared engaged in how things were flowing.
The bathrooms were in excellent condition and clean. I did noticed the bathrooms are unisex. I would recommend to have urinals in both, that is to guarantee that the female costumer can enjoy a dry clean toilet seat.

Back to my table, we were waiting for our food. The food arrived in a timely manner; not too early nor late. We were enjoying the tennis game as waited.
Here is where things got a little sour. Maybe I didn't read it right but I personally like the choice to get a double meat or single. Our burgers came with double meat. There are people who like that but I personally don't care for it at all. Here is why I don't like double meat; the double meat tends to have a lot of juice in the meat. That juice alone spills out of the meat and by the time the burger is delivered the bread gets soggy. And soggy it was! My bottom bread was already half wet. Such a turn off; at least for me. That in itself irritated me. I removed the second patti but it was too late. I enjoyed what was left dry. This could have been a great burger if it had not been for the sogginess of the bread. My daughter's burger had the same problem. The rest was just basic, the fries were just average.

Nothing really sets this place apart. The location alone cannot be the sustaining factor of this business. Yes, people may come to drink and enjoy the atmosphere; which is stunning. But all it takes is for another joint to do the same but with better food, and your business is over. To stay relevant there must be a balance between quality of food and atmosphere, pricing is a very minimal factor, especially for the area. People who come here already understand this won't be McDonald's prices, so, they are used to paying for premium.

In a nutshell.
° I would say that the urinals are key to the unisex bathrooms.
° Maintain the quality of your food good. And listen to your costumers. Don't relay on your bar to be the sustaining factor of your business.“

“First off, the service was top-tier. There was a group of 8 of us, and we were celebrating a birthday. Alex was our server. He made us all feel like the most important people in the room and made sure to run us through the menu. Alex REALLY knows his stuff.
We started off with Dirty Martini's. They were excellent. We took all of his recommendations. For appetizers, we had crab cakes and the house bacon. Possibly the best crab cake experience I've had. We went with the family style approach on the main courses. We all shared the Halibut with broccolini, a very tasty, cooked to perfection table steak. It had the perfect char, yet was buttery amd melt in your mouth. The sides we chose were the lobster mac, crispy brussels, and the thick cut house fries. All were as desired and then some. 10/10 would recommend to anyone wanted a great dining experience.“
