This week, Tulsa will welcome the NCAA Wrestling Championships, which will be held at the BOK Center from Thursday-Saturday.
The O’Colly pieced together a list of notable eateries to make your week one-to-remember in addition to the pinnacle event of college wrestling.
Juniper:
A gem of a fine-dining restaurant, just walking distance from the arena.
Nola’s Cajun Eatery:
End your day with one of the best Cajun ambiances in town. The gumbo is a must-get.
Kilkenny’s Irish Pub:
The Kings River Fish and Chips will hold a special place in your memory down the road. Add a side of Irish potato soup and you’re asking for a meal-to-remember.
Fat Guy’s:
Just want something fast? Swing by one of the best burger places in the state and taste its mouth-watering patties and satisfying sauces and seasoning.
SMOKE:
If a casual setting fits the vibe, this is the place to go. Sit down, have a drink – the wines are a fan favorite – and embrace some of the best food in the downtown area on a more formal scale.
Sisserou’s:
Stop by the Tulsa Art District (not for the art), to try food inspired by that in the alluring island of Dominica.
Andolini’s:
Brace yourself for some of the largest pizza pies in the Midwest region. Varying from 16 to 20 inches, two may not even be enough to down one of these.
