Did he ever fix the name Prhyme or did he run with that?


So much for using that as my rap name.

My wife and I have not been to Prhyme yet, but two different couples we know have been. Both have reported back that it is overpriced and underwhelming. We will probably still try it, but it sounds like one of those places we will go once if we aren't blown away.

I drank at Delks probably once a week.  Ate there rarely.  Lunch crowd was thin.  After dinner drink crowd as fairly good. I will miss it.

An investor in Prhyme tells me the cheaper steaks are better than the more expensive steaks.  The feedback from patrons has been the same.  Goes to show, don't always order the most expensive thing on the menu.

Sounds like a good investor...not sure if I would be spreading that around..

Too bad. Wonder what killed it? Was it the early problem with the food? Ever changing staff? Bad signage?

I knew it was there, was going to go in and walked by the door more than once.

The food got better?

Yes, the food had greatly improved because they weren't trying to make things that the kitchen could not handle. I had a Tuna TarTar and a mushroom pizza that were very tasty.

Oh, then why are Atlas Grill, Elote, The Vault etcetera still doing well? Why does JJ Sandwiches want to open in the Thompson Building?

You just hate downtown. You either have some personal greivance against it or you want it to fail bacause it will help you personally along with your development plans and for some reason you also dislike our heritage neighborhoods. Go build a bland restaurant or a big box in south Tulsa, why not?

I blame the owners...they knew nothing about the restaurant business and thought all they had to do was build a bar and fill it up with Restoration Hardware lighting.

No, it's a question everyone should be asking.  Its basic market forces.  In a crowded market you have to provide a top notch product.  Delk's nailed the decor, but failed at food and in my experience service.  If you don't hit all three you don't stay in a crowded market.
