We had my sonâs rehearsal dinner here. Very professional staff and the food was delicious. The menu for our guests gave them a choice of beef or fish, along with all the trimmings. Before dinner, there was a cocktail hour, with a beautiful display of fruit and assorted cheeses, as well as the house bruschetta, which is outstanding. The grand finale was their white chocolate bread pudding. Once you have that, your life will be complete!

While visiting my daughter in Broken Arrow shesuggested a new restaurant âPolo Grillâ on Utica Square in Tulsa. Itâs so rare to find deliciouseverything from the bread to every side item thatis ordered plus every entreeâ! This place has wonderful people greeting you, taking your orderquickly even if their full. Then bringing you deliciousfood in a normal amount of time. Now I knowthe place I will go first when we visit Tulsa again.This is definitely a favorite for Brunch, Lunchor Dinner and moderately priced with greatatmosphere. This kind of Restaurant is hard tofind. They do take reservations but you may haveto wait even then as people enjoy it so much theyleave slowly but itâs well worth the wait. I love GrillRestaurants but this one is a favorite!

Came here after our first choice was closed for renovations and there were few choices open on Sunday evening. The atmosphere is nice (upscale pub). Service was very good, but not memorable. The food was good, but my pork chop was very small and dry. Good selection of draft beers. Prices were on the high side. Myself and my two other guests was satisfied, but did not think the meals were worth the price. This place might be better for appetizers and drinks at the bar (not sure if they offered happy hour).Darryl, thank for for the feedback!! Our pork chops come from a local purveyor and are typically huge and juicy! We've since corrected the issue, I'm so sorry yours wasn't up to par. We do offer some amazing happy hours specials - 1/2 price drafts and bar snacks week day afternoons. We also love to promote Winesday - 1/2 price bottles of wine every Wednesday evening, and our amazing burger is 1/2 price after 9:00 pm EVERY night!

We were a large group and had preordered our food. The service was excellent under these circumstances, they were definitely ready for us. I ordered the "Buffalo Burger" and it came with nice fries. The burger was cooked perfectly, not dry, not gamey, a tad bit of pink in the middle. I would order this again. Others in the group got a big salad that had grilled sliced chicken on it, sliced avocado, sliced hard boiled eggs among other things. They all seemed to enjoy them. Our lunches came with some warm biscuits, I could have feasted on those alone. The place has a small bar and there was a list of wines on a card on our table. We stuck to our waters.
