We stumbled upon this hidden gem in Tulsa during a recent visit for an event. Our group of three had a wonderful first experience at this restaurant! Our server was outstanding, effortlessly answering all our questions and offering insightful recommendations that enhanced our dining experience.

As for the food, every dish we ordered was a delight—each entree was flavorful, The drinks were skillfully crafted., and the dessert was a perfectly sweet ending to our meal.

The service, food, and ambiance was so good. We started with mimosas, then had the avocado toast, blueberry bread pudding French toast, and crab cake benedict. I was very impressed. Our server Dani was knowledgeable of the menu and her recommendations were spot on.

It wasn’t offensively bad but I wouldn’t go back. Ribeye was only 1/2” thick and not trimmed very well, ordered medium, delivered medium-well and dry. Béarnaise sauce in ramekin looked like it was pulled from fridge with residual skin showing on top. Mashed potatoes appear to be dropped on plate from an ice cream scoop. So food is pretty rough, like a restaurant that was great decades ago but now relies on cost-cutting and premade bits to support an owner who no longer really cares. Interior environment is really noisy.

One of my favorite Tulsa restaurants! The vibe is great. The food is outstanding. The bartender was so awesome! We actually went 2 nights in a row. Highly recommend the spinach and artichoke dip and the beef Wellington bites! We did a few shared plates so we could try several items. The crab cake was also very tasty. Highly recommend checking it out!

We're glad you enjoyed your food, especially the spinach and artichoke dip, beef Wellington bites, and the crab cake (I am personally a big fan of all three as well!)

Food was great but service was very slow. We had to wait on our food and drinks once we ordered. When I made the reservation I requested downstairs. They seated us upstairs instead. The restaurant was half full so I checked downstairs a couple of times to see if those tables were still available and they were. By the time we left they had a large table set for a dinner or luncheon for next day. It would’ve been nice if they communicated to us that’s the reason why we didn’t get seated downstairs. They have a new chef and he’s doing a great job. We will be back.

Unfortunately our experience was incredibly disappointing. We were celebrating my Birthday. The plating was awkward. Very small plates😏 difficult to eat the average food. No VISUAL appeal.

Kevin was a terrific server. We had the filet and braised short rib and both were delicious. The bread pudding was divine! A quaint atmosphere! We will return.
