Up the Creek restaurant

Where do you people in north Texas... I mean, south Tulsa... go to eat something different than what you can get in any other city? Husband's brother was in town last night, and staying out there near the retail jungle, so we ended up at Macaroni Grill. Ick. After Mary's, Ciao and Garlic Rose, it seemed Chef Boyardeesque.

Sorry, that's my diva showing... but seroiusly, if I have occasion to host visitors south of I-44 again, what unique, bistro-type dining is there?

Is the Fountains at 66th and Lewis still around? That's a great place down south.

I heard BlueStone is excellent 101/Sheridan
Michael V's 105/Memorial
The Bistro 101/Yale

sO THERE ARE SOME GOOD PLACES SOUTH!

I was shocked by the quality of Micheal Vs.  It is DEFINITELY out of place...but hell if secluded keeps the masses away, I'm all for it!

Is that (Michaels) in the shopping center in the Northwest corner?

We're in too much of a hurry, only drive-through-bistro dining will do!

Never trust an Italian place with a type of pasta in it's name. Macaroni, Spaghetti, Pasta...all bad in a restaurant name.

Many years ago I went to Macaroni Grill with a date (before my wife of eleven years). They had a house wine on the table with their own Macaroni Grill label. My date asked how they make wine out of macaroni.

One of the best in South Tulsa is the little Louie's sports restaurant at 101st and Sheridan. Great food and great service. They have several dishes that are outstanding for that type establishment.

+1 on the service

Service was great, food average I thought, but I didn't feel it was over-priced.  I've stuck to sandwiches or burgers when I've been there, maybe I need to branch out a little next time.

Secluded keeping the masses away seems to be the bane of many restaurants []

Up the Creek is exactly where that place will be in a year....if that.

When you have the backdrop of Blackinton Coat Fatory behind you along with a crumbling sea of asphalt parking lot, you are on a one way float trip up FAIL Creek.

Classy.

No, its closed.

The health department closed it due to multiple infractions of health codes.

Up the Creek is going after the Redlobster market.  Not Bonefish Classy, but not Fish Daddy's low end.  
So don't go in looking for local chic cuisine.  
Its not Michael V's, Garlic Rose... So lets not try to compare it.  It is what it is.  Aiming for family seafood market.

We went there about three weeks ago.  The fried pickles were pretty good.  My wife had the maui-maui with lobster sauce.  She said it was very good.  I had the bone-in ribeye.  It was average.

Must Agree... If your a fried pickle fan these are pretty good. Thought they were better than the ones at Runt's BBQ in BA
