Takaramono
Japanese gastronomy is the name of the game at Takaramono in OKC, a modern Izakaya restaurant with distinctly Japanese roots.
Start with miso soup; the Takaramono salad with seaweed, cucumber, ginger and white fish; or the crunchy rice tuna with avocado. Then, venture to the sushi and sashimi sections, with rolls including tuna, salmon, beef, flounder, shrimp or squid.
For those not too keen on sushi, try the grilled and fried section, with options like chicken, grilled salmon and wagyu skewers, grilled pork ribs, miso cod, chicken wings or garlic shrimp olive oil.
If you prefer a very hearty dish, the prime beef steak, wagyu beef burger, fried rice or udon beef sukiyaki should do the trick.
End the night with something sweet, like the pistachio burnt basque cheesecake, raspberry Earl Grey mousse cake or the matcha tiramisu. You can’t lose.
En Fuego
Sitting pretty within Tulsa’s Guthrie Green, En Fuego is a tequila and taco bar perfect for a casual bite or night out with friends.
To kick things off, classic starters include queso, elote dip, wings, street nachos and carne asada fries.
No matter the taco you’re searching for, En Fuego has it – whether you’re craving elote chicken, grilled fish, garden veggie, carnitas, tempura fish or a classic street taco.
