Nice, clean restaurant with HUGE portion sizes. Everything was very yummy and the service was very good.

Okay SoBA, I ventured out into New Orleans Square today and popped into the newly opened Bison Steakhouse! Since I came in at 11:30 AM you get a lunch time review. I looked over the menu carefully so I could try a menagerie of items. Some things of note that I DIDN'T try are the tabouli and cabbage rolls. I also saw a steak with a lobster tail available. Here is what I DId try!!! To start, I sat at the bar because I came in solo. I met a man named Jeremy on my way to sit who recognized me!!! Totally made my day, he introciced me to his family and it was just fun!! Anyway, I sat at the bar and enjoyed a stiff glass of ice water !!!! Only the hard stuff for me!!! I started out with the BLOOMING ONION!!! Welcomed addition to south BA IMHO!!! Great size, fried to perfection and was seasoned well!!!! I had it with regular ranch but very much enjoyed that chipotle ranch. I like some extra flavor!!!! I moved on from there to a BISON BURGER!!! Where it normally comes with a side of fries, I opted for a side salad . I liked how it was more than just lettuce. It had some nice red onion, tomatoes , thin slices of hard boiled egg and croutons . This was taken down with basic ranch. BREAD!!!! How can I forget the complimentary bread!!! Get it. Just so it. I don't care, try it and enjoy it, I mean, unless it will do your body harm, please don't die for bread!!! For the rest of y'all, get it. It will make your day better. Okay, now for the bison burger!! When it came out I was so glad to see it be a pub style patty!! It was substantial in size and paired well with mustard!! I had mine cooked to medium well and prefer bison burgers with all the veggies. It is a very lean meat and without the fat, needs something to provide some moisture beyond the mustard. Overall I enjoyed this lunch specialty and found it to be very satisfying. It is a little spendy but for me, worth it for a lunch treat!! Overall great experience. While sitting I did notice a few things that will go unmentioned, but are to be expected for a spot that's been open 1.5 days. It takes time to get all the processes nailed down and everyone working efficiently and cohesively. I would as that you be patient as they get lined out and not be a jerk to the staff. None of us are so special that we can treat each other poorly. Please be kind and tip well!!! When YOU come in, ask for Tracy or Desiree!! They were awesome and be sure to tell 'em Big Ray sent you!!!! read more

Made a last minute reservation for 11people and they were very accommodating. Needed a table with wheelchair access and it was no problem even with the late notice. Granted it was a Wednesday night but we arrived to find the restaurant still nearly full. Food was incredible. We weren't really sure what to expect as it was all of our first time coming, but thru out the meals courses, nothing but positive remarks and compliments flooded the table. Was personally very excited to see cabbage rolls on the menu and they were delightful. The steaks were all cooked perfectly and could really taste the quality of the meat. Overall we were very impressed and expect to visit repeatedly if experiences continue the same! Highly recommend. read more

The past couple of times we've gone, the service has been very slow, food comes out only mildly warm. Which is disappointing because the first time we came it was excellent. The last couple of times we've been disappointed. read more

The first time we came everything was really good. Then each time thereafter, it gets worse and worse. The bison ribeye they used to have when they first opened was excellent. For whatever reason they took the off the menu and now the only bison steak they offer is a 't-bone'. It is awful. Super tough. Horrible flavor. Barely any meat. It was not a true tbone. Definitely didn't taste like bison or any quality grade meat at that. The beef steaks are good but not worth the price. The rolls are gross and have an odd flavor. Cake was dry and tasted freezer burnt. The other food is mediocre at best. The best thing they have going for them is the drinks now. The service sucks too. I don't know what happened but it's so disappointing. Will not be back! read more

Decent for Broken Arrow, absolutely nothing special if you ever travel outside of this area. Our silverware and table was dirty - so I hope they don't get inspected tomorrow by the health department *wink*, the bloomin onion still had raw batter at the bottom, the cabbage rolls were pretty much rice and sauce, the rolls are just store bought, the catfish was actually very clean and hot, salad was fresh but all the dressing and sauces served just taste straight out of a store bought bottle. This place can compete with places in that neighborhood, but this is basically just an Outback in an old Applebee's if you really need the honest review. Best description I can give you. Good, not great. read more

Karessa was an amazing waitress. The food was great. We will definitely come back!!! We had steak and catfish. Everything was cooked to perfection. The salads had real bacon and the rolls were fresh and hot when they came out. 5/5!!! read more

The food is really good and not overpriced at all. Great variety of sides for low carb if needed. Best smothered chicken ever!

Fried Chicken Salad was good--fresh salad items (no wilted or gross lettuce!). The chopped fried chicken fingers on top of the salad were flavorful and freshly prepared. They have dinner rolls and that cinnamon-flavored oleo. Service was slow, restaurant wasn't crowded, but diners were seated all across the restaurant. Waitstaff did a lot of walking. Ambiance? This is not a fine dining restaurant. It's casual and geared toward families for food and a bar for weekday afternoon drinkers. And a TV EVERYWHERE you look. read more

My steak came out undercooked, sent it back came out overcooked and My husband's food came out cold. We will not be going back!

Went to Bison (2nd time) to celebrate Cray Cray's birthday and try out happy hour. Got there around 5:30 and it was already somewhat busy. I asked the host about happy hour and he was unsure so we sat in the bar to be sure happy hour would be honored. A server came over and took our initial drink orders, house margaritas on the rocks. Dr. Pepper for LM. She was delivered a sprite by the bartender Then the host came over and let us know we could get happy hour drinks at our table but not appetizers. No big deal. The waiter came back with the margaritas and asked if we wanted any happy hour apps ‍ Margaritas were not good and came with salt which I asked to have left off. What do you want for $3? A third person came over and introduced herself as our waiter We ordered grilled shrimp and cabbage rolls as our app. 1st waiter (turns out is the manager) delivered our apps. 2 orders of cabbage rolls and the shrimp. There went our happy hour pricing ‍ We only ordered one order of rolls. The group said the cabbage rolls were excellent. LM wanted the shrimp and did not like it. Others agreed. Too garlicky. We also ordered wine and beer. I like their house wine. I've had it elsewhere. Brand is Forum. Happy hour wine is $1 off and happy hour beer is $1.50 off. We ordered filet and pork chops for entrees. Side salad, loaded baked potato and filet were all excellent. Pork chops came out with the manager and an apology. They were super thin and overcooked. She immediately apologized and ended up comping it. Somehow, we still spent $125 with 1 entree, happy hour drinks and apps ‍ Food was mostly great and we will return. Happy to have the local option and happy to support. They still need to work out some service issues which I hope they do by our next visit. read more

Finally tried Bison Steakhouse and it was very good. Service from Desirae was excellent. Portions were large so brought home enough for tomorrow. The Decoy by Duckhorn Merlot was perfect with my filet. Definitely going back to try more. read more

Our waitress Josie did an excellent job. We aren't locals, but visit the area periodically & stumbled on this gem through Yelp when looking for somewhere that served steak that was nearby. Everything was amazing from the Hot Rolls that were served with cinnamon butter to the NY Strip that was cooked perfectly. You didn't need streak sauce with it if that says anything. We had the green beans & mashed potatoes with white gravy. I loved the garlic butter taste with the green beans, it's probably my favorite that I've ever had at a restaurant. The cocktail I had (Frozen Watermelon Mojito) was so refreshing. Josie was very pleasant & made light conversation & even recommended a cute boutique for me to check out. Anytime I visit the Tulsa area this will be a must. Highly recommend! read more

Ooof where to start, from overpriced steaks to not even preparing them correctly, a medium rare steak came out RAW, a rare steak came out RAW (cold in the center raw) don't bother with the cheese sticks, gas station is better, the rolls are cold?? Weird. Fries weren't done, mashed potatoes taste no better than instant mash, just add water!! (Service was good, but the food? 2.1/10 read more

Excellent meal! Salads were cold...entrees were piping hot! Thatcher was attentive and friendly. Celebrating the anniversary of our first date at Bison Steakhouse. Highly recommend read more

Oh my goodness, our waitress at Bison Steakhouse was incredible....Karessa. She was so friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Very attentive to our whole table. You should ask for her section. read more

We went on a Friday night. The place was packed, but the two of us were seated immediately. The tables are very close together and a family and I had to share some arm space. We ordered the mediterranean app with the tabouli, hummus, and cabbage roll. The hummus was too salty for me, but the rest was great. We ordered chicken fried chicken with fries and mac and cheese, as well as, smothered chicken, loaded baked potato, and brussel sprouts. The entrées were delish. The servers and the food runners were working well as a team and getting tables the things they needed and turning them over quickly. read more

We tried Bison Steakhouse today for lunch. It is in a former Applebee's. They painted the walls. That basically sums up the experience. The food was fine, but it had hot and fresh going for it. The service was remarkably slow but also attentive. There was a large table of women cackling and airing their dirty laundry way too loudly (and I'll add that they were done dining the entire time we were there); that totally ruined any hope of an atmosphere. Sadly, there are better options so this place does not receive our recommendation, though we wish them well. read more

A really solid place to grab a bite to eat, UNLESS the manager is your server (short blonde hair). Really an unpleasant experience with her. Throws things around, no reply to a simple thank you, etc. This is based on several visits, it's actually an uncomfortable environment with her.... RBF is one thing, but sheesh! read more

Ordered take out, service and people over the phone were super sweet and personable. Steak was cooked to the perfect temp, however, I ordered the bread pudding and upon opening it up at home, smells like moldy feet? I really can't describe the scent but I can't eat this. A little disappointed because to add ice cream to it (which it usually comes with a scoop, from other places) costed $.99. i took a few bites hoping that it was my brain messing with me but could not get past that horrid smell. Stear clear of the bread pudding. The milk or whatever in it is spoiled. read more

For the price the service sucked and didn't get all of our order and told them 2 times and still didn't get it

I really love their steak. At lunch they have an amazing deal with their mashed potato's and roasted corn and it really hit the spot! Their service is not as great as the food but they only had two servers so not sure if they were short. read more

Both times we've visited The Bison, we've been thoroughly satisfied. The portions are generous, the food is delicious and served hot. I particularly enjoy the rolls, blooming onion, and the delicious steaks. The atmosphere is laid-back, making it unnecessary to dress up. read more

A friend and I split the cabbage roll tabouli Appetizer. And then split the best hamburger I've ever had. I will definitely be going back. Service is very friendly and helpful. The ambience is a nice and comfortable nicely decorated, those people quiet despite the televisions around the bar. read more

We have had Bison Steakhouse on our list after hearing about it from a few different people. We started off with the cabbage rolls, which were very tasty. My MIL said her plate of cabbage rolls were a bit cold, while our plate was warm and they had a great flavor - not too much cinnamon and more savory. The rolls at Bison are (in my opinion) better than Texas Roadhouse as they are much fluffier and substantial. I ordered the ribeye and the flavor was pretty good but it was a bit tough to cut at times. I always get medium rare and it was perfectly cooked. I also ordered the Brussel sprouts and they were kind of large and undercooked for how I like them. My MIL's were smaller and cooked more. My husband got the chicken fried steak with brown gravy and he said it was good but not great. He was not a fan of the green beans as well. Overall, the flavor for most of our food was good but the consistency between orders was not the best. We still want to come back and try some different things on the menu! Our server was super kind and attentive throughout the night, giving my MIL a peach dessert for her birthday and making sure we all had what we wanted. The inside of the restaurant definitely still looks a bit like an Applebee's (but upscale and updated) and is pretty crowded with tables fairly close together. All in all, we will be back to try other things and get a better idea of what Bison is all about! read more

We have been here four are five times and the last two times have been very disappointing. So much so that we won't be going back. Dinner tonight was cold and the steak was really over cooked and not seasoned. The salad came out after our main course. The hostesses and wait staff hung out up front and had their soft drinks and coffees sitting on the front desk and they just talked and talked like it was break time. Huge change from our first few times here. What a shame. read more

Bison is a good mid-level restaurant. The food was good but not outstanding. TBH the steaks were a little overpriced for top sirloin and NY strip. The tabouleh was good but the humus needed salt and the cabbage roll had an odd taste. The rolls were good and the cinnamon butter was a nice twist. The building still feels like a converted Applebees but they did a good job redecorating. Certainly not a romantic place nor a family scene. The parking lot was crazy and we saw so many close calls. The service was good but the timing was off. It took too long to get the appetizers and the main course was not far behind. Our server had too many tables but did his best. read more

Husband and I went for dinner and husband opted for the 12 or 14oz bison steak ($44) cooked rare with mashed potato no gravy, and I opted for the bison burger ($14?) cooked medium rare with steak fries. 3 out of 10. The steak was cooked well done and was chewy, the mashed potato's were cold and my burger was awful and fries were cold. I didn't eat it. The service was abysmal. We were going to grab a drink but when I asked if they had any specials server just looked at me. So we got water. The ambiance was so - so. Not very busy and they didn't have music playing the first 25 minutes we were there so everyone could hear everyone. There are way better steaks and burgers in Broken Arrow so please don't waste your time and come here! read more

It is nice to have a good place to go in south Broken Arrow. Food was good and servyemwas good. We will go again.

I gave them one star only because the waitress was nice. My husband ordered smothered chicken it was charred dried and tough to chew. If the chicken is half burned I would hate to try a steak. I ordered bison chili It tasted as if someone took the entire salt shaker and dumped it in. It also came in a bowl that was more like the size of a half cup serving pretty pathetic but since it tasted so bad I only had a couple bites then left the rest. So we basically threw away $35 for two unedible meals. read more

The place looked great... very comfortable, the bison burger was great, but my server, Olivia, was absolutely perfect!

Great new place in BA. Seems like it might be a newer version of all of the great Lebanese Steak houses that have been a part of the Tulsa area for years. The steaks are great and competitively priced. The Humus is to die for!!! Best I have ever had. Jeff read more

The food was excellent and prices reasonable. I mean, it is a steakhouse... I love seeing more Broken Arrow restaurant options, especially when they're good. read more

My wife, daughter, and I stopped by on a Friday night to check out Bison after giving it a few weeks to work out any kinks that can be associated with opening a new restaurant. We live nearby and were excited to finally go there. The building itself formerly housed an Applebees and the layout was the same as the last time we'd eaten there when it was an Applebees. No big deal for us because Bison has added their own touches and we were there for the food anyway. We were seated in a booth and immediately greeted by our server who gave us menus. The menu itself is large enough to happily suit anyone looking for beef, fish, chicken, or pork. We ordered a blooming onion for the table which was brought to us soon after ordering. I haven't had one in years, but this was much better than I remember. You know how the breading would fall off the onion at other restaurants who serve the blooming onion/awesome blossom? This was not the case at Bison. All batter stayed put and had a great flavor - a hint of black pepper - and wasn't greasy. I ordered a cowboy ribeye cooked medium, and my wife and daughter opted to split a medium rare filet and sea bass. I'll say the entrees and sides were the highlights of the meal. Steaks were cooked and seasoned perfectly and the cuts of aged beef were very flavorful and tender. I love a ribeye but they can sometimes have a lot of gristle if the cut is inferior. Quite the opposite at Bison - I ate happily. My wife wished her filet had been cut a little thicker but enjoyed the flavor immensely. But her favorite was the sea bass. She said she could eat it daily. The Brussels sprouts were amply portioned and had a tasty balsamic glaze and the side salad was good as well. My daughter's ranch dressing was good and tasted fresh as did our chunky blue cheese. Service was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Nothing bad to say about them at all. Things I think could be improved: The rolls were meh - a bit dry and lacking flavor. Not a deal breaker at all and the least important part of the meal. We also wished the bar was a bit more diverse because we enjoy a nice cocktail or beer at a restaurant. My wife asked why types of gin they had was given only two options. I noticed their draft and canned beer choices were very limited in the craft beer department. I would've liked to have seen local craft beer options since we have many good craft breweries in the Tulsa area. I believe locally owned restaurants need to have some local alcoholic beverage options to really show they're part of the local community. But maybe they're working on this and I just don't know about it. TLDR, go to Bison and enjoy a very good meal. They're a welcome addition to South BA. read more

Atmosphere and service was good. Food was not. Wife ordered a medium well steak. It came out rare. She sent it back and it came out medium rare. Meanwhile I had already eaten my sub-par meal. So we both ate alone. Will not go back. read more
