When we got there, she had a whole baseball team with several adults and children. I was a little worried at first, however, she managed all her tables well, including ours. She was helpful, kind and took care of us while taking care of several others, too. Whatever shes paid, it's not enough! Shes wonderful!”

Young lady that took our order recommended a sandwich based on what I told her I liked, and she nailed it! Bread was amazing, meat and everything else in it was perfect. Can’t wait to go back! (Can’t remember the name of the sandwich, but it was the second one listed on the board and it began with a “C”)”

I had the veal Marsala and my wife had the chicken parm. Completely on point all the way around. I normally to wait until I am back home on Long Island had veal prepared that perfectly.

We’ll be back!”

“In from out of town and was traveling with friends on this holiday weekend. Our experience here was really good. The food and prices were good, but we all agreed that every employee seemed to want to be here and was happy about it. We watched two parties of 20(?) leave and the staff wished everyone a good day and happily reassembled their dining area back to reasonable table sizes. Sometimes large parties means that everyone else has empty glasses and long waits, but everyone was handled politely and well watered.

The experience was so good to watch that ee even hand wrote thank-you letters on our receipts.”

“The chicken wrap was next level. We also had the Bang bang shrimp, fried jalapeños with just the right kick, fresh onion straws for crunch, and that bang bang sauce tying it all together. Every bite—sweet, spicy, crunchy perfection. Gone in 5 minutes.”

“Fun fun fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“Rafa’s has the best chicken in town. My favorite is the chicken bowl with brown rice and black beans. Great food and great service.”

She was sweet, courteous and can I just say professional again!? Who you choose to put at your window - makes or breaks the place and she’s fantastic!”

“I finished the pizza before the cook finished his cigarette after bringing it to me. 10/10”

“Great Customer Service❤️ We Love Rose Rock Coffee, Have been enjoying it every trip to Tahlequah, while visiting family.

“It’s a great place for me to run in real quick and get a couple groceries. I like the quality of their food. Their milk seems to last longer than the offbrand at Walmart so I run in there and they also provide sugar-free ice cream for people that are diabetics.”

“Hands down the best pizza we’ve had in a long time! My kids love pizza but they loved simple Simons way more then anywhere else we have here in Tahleqauh! (First time trying it)”

“I have never been a subway person. I was taking my girlfriend to get a sandwich and the guy behind the counter (Aaron) talked me into getting one for myself. He was funny, respectful, and extremely nice. I let him get creative with my sandwich since I never eat Subway. This sandwich was absolutely delicious. Aaron was an extremely hard worker and took care of us well. I will absolutely be coming back and I know have an order that I will get every time.”

“ordered a 32 piece and were not disappointed! got Nashville hot and santa fe. Nashville wasn't very hot but still tasty. wings were great size and cooked perfectly. so juicy. fries also good. just needed a tad more seasoning. 8 out of 10 will order again!”

“Went today through the drive thru. Only took about 8 minutes even though the line looked packed. My food was hot and the fries were perfect! I’ll be back to try the new spicy grilled sandwich next time. This location has a playground!”

“We had a great time! Food was excellent, Andres was a fantastic serve, and the atmosphere on Cinco de Mayo was full of laughing parties. The towers of margaritas may have contributed. We even got a few spare souvenir shirts! It was a great time.”

“Surprised dad and mom with a trip to Tahlequah today for fried chicken livers. I called the Chicken Express there before we left, because it's an hour's drive to get there, and they assured me that they had plenty of livers. I made sure they knew we were driving an HOUR to get there, and they said yes, come! So, off we went. Only to find out, after placing our order, that the livers they had on hand were 'bad' and it would be three hours before they had a batch ready. Thankfully, I found Charlie's Chicken online, just down the road, and we had the BEST fried livers around! They will get our business from now on, for sure. Super-friendly staff and hot, fresh food...they saved the day!”

“Excellent service. Waitress Rosie is the best”

“Stopped at the Quah location on our way home to Stilwell. I love Mazzio's salad and their traditional bone in mild buffalo wings. Normally don't even bother with the pizza. However today I grabbed a pepperoni and supreme slice. I have to say it was damn good. It wasn't soaked on sauce and had the right amount of toppings. It was a nice lunch with my oldest daughter. I even told the wait staff how great the food tasted

They use can mushrooms not real. Althought today they didnt taste canned”

“These folks knock it out of the park every time!
I didn't catch his name but the young man whirling the counter Sunday 23 November in the late afternoon was one of the most polite persons I've met lately. He really seemed to love his job and helping folks get a great meal. 100 stars!”

“Whoever the older lady is that works there— she is SO nice. She was working between 5pm-6pm on 08/19/25! THE nicest person I’ve ever come in contact with in any type of customer service. We always know her voice when she takes our order and it doesn’t matter what time of day she works, she is ALWAYS so kind and its genuinely appreciated!”

“Wait time at drive through was 20+ minutes. At window asked to verify my order. Told me what was supposed to be in bag. Not what was in the bag. One of the burgers was simply meat, cheese and enough mayonnaise to devil a dozen eggs!

Tried to call them a little after 1 o’clock. Will try again. Very disappointed today”

“Their smoked chicken is amazing! I got the club sandwich and it was so good. Honestly, the sandwich was so big, I didn't even need the side it came with. Highly recommend!”

“Whataburger is my favorite fast food although I would hardly call it fast food they make it fresh and this one did not disappoint. Nice and clean, It was busy but there was plenty of seats available and Ariel took fantastic care of me. Big smile and super helpful. Definitely will stop in here again on my travels. A+”
