    Tall glass of water.
    Dan C.

    Fun and popular place for lunch, quite busy on a Sunday morning. Excellent service all around. We both got the 2X2X2 breakfast - 2 eggs, your choice of 2 bacon or 2 sausage and 2 pancakes. Also includes hash browns or home fries. It was all delicious. Very generous portions. I'm sure we'll be going back soon.

    Two large grilled pork chops with mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables
    Jim G.

    While driving down South Peoria (Brookside) we noticed Brookside Diner. It was close to dinner time and thought we would give it a try. I'm glad we did. There is plenty of parking and plenty of seating. Our waitress was one of the best we've ever had. I did not get her name, she was friendly with a sense of humor and seemed to really enjoy her job. We ordered onion rings as appetizer. Onion rings are fresh made not store bought. My wife ordered grilled pork chops with mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables. I ordered the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and brown beans. We both were surprised at the size of the pork chops and chicken fried steak. The dinner rolls are homemade. We both enjoyed our dinner. And had enough to take home for another meal. I'm sure we will be coming back again the next time we are in the neighborhood.

    Brookside Chicken Salad
    Spike S.

    My wife and I both were thinking about a salad today for lunch. A salad with crispy chicken. And not a fast-food franchise salad. I wanted to go somewhere that had friendly service. Where the employees and the owner cares about the quality of the food that they set in front of their customers. The reviews for Brookside Diner had the rating. 4.5 stars on Google and Yelp. That is a strong indicator of a solid diner. Pictures of Brookside Diner's breakfasts and chicken fried steak seem to dominate as diners' favorites. The breakfast menu and the pictures of the breakfast plates will get me back in the door. Inside the restaurant is clean and comfortable. The service is prompt. The employees are very friendly. The owner made a tour of the dining area, checking on everyone. He also owns Yummy Subs and More in Broken Arrow, which offers excellent daily special sandwiches. Try it if you haven't Our salad orders were the Chicken Avocado and the Brookside Chicken. Both with the breaded fried chicken breast. These are generous plates of food. A pile of salad vegetables and two large breasts sliced up in bite sized pieces. The chicken covers the plate of salad. A wide selection of your favorite house made dressings are available. Creamy Italian for my wife's Chicken Avocado and my favorite, Thousand Island for the Brookside Chicken. Check the pictures. Construction on Peoria has shifted to the east side of the street, making the access to Brookside Diner much easier than it has been for months. Enjoyable meals, great service.

    Pancake
    Steven P.

    Hit this about 9 am on a Sunday. Immediate seating was available. Server and service was prompt. Their menu is fairly standard for diner fare - skillets stand out, but I went with a meat lovers omelet and a pancake for a small upcharge. My buddy had a Denver omelet. My omelet had bacon, sausage, and ham. Appeared to be a 3-4 egg omelet. Generous but not silly sized. I chose hashbrowns which were nice and crispy on the outside, how I like it. The pancake was outstanding - fluffy, but just right texture and size. Warm syrup accompanied it. Again, service was friendly and appropriate. I'll be back - I see why it's rated well.

    If you want to go eat at a local diner that is run by an owner that cares and is constantly getting his own hands dirty doing all of the things his wait staff does as well as all of the other duties it takes to run a restaurant this is the place to go in Tulsa. Fresh hot rolls, freshly cut bowls of fruit are evidence along side the good quality main dishes and flaky biscuits that the details of good food are not being neglected here. The ambiance is not trendy or upscale. It's not quaint or nostalgic it is as practical as you please. The success of this restaurant is due to the sheer hard work and dedication of it's owner.

    What is there not to recommend this great diner: Good customer service - check Good food - check Breakfast all day - check Affordable - check Cleanliness - check The only thing that is a problem was the order. I was pretty sure that the person took my order asked whether I want hash brow or fries which was somewhat surprising as fries typically don't go with breakfast. I picked fries and got that stir fried potatoes which I did not like. If that is what they call fried, they need to change it.

    This is a place that will make you feel like a regular. It is a friendly and welcoming diner and breakfast is served all day! The food is good and portions are hefty but order away and get a to-go box.

    a plate of spaghetti and meatballs
    Jeff S.

    While in Tulsa on a Saturday morning, The Wife, The Kid and I got hangry, so they let me pick a new spot for breakfast. After looking at the local options, I decided we'd give Brookside Diner a shot. Pulled up, walked in and were seated immediately. Wait staff, while busy, were cheerful and friendly. The Kid opted for spaghetti and meatballs, which were excellent. Sauce was a tad watery in the bowl, but the flavors were on point. The Wife had what seemed like a whole ham with eggs and hash browns. Turns out it was only a half ham steak, but we all three ate on it. I opted for 3 scrambled eggs, 2 sausage patties, which is my normal breakfast, with the addition of a side of gravy and hashbrowns. All items were fantastic and well executed. Potatoes were cooked properly, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. We're already looking for a reason for our next trip to Brookside Diner.

For my entree, I got the Chicken Caesar Salad with a side of truffle fries. The fries were insanely good! The salad was okay, but it had very little dressing on it, so we did ask for a side of it to add more. Overall, the service was great, and I'll definitely try more things on the food menu in the future.

Ambiance reminds me of a fancy place you would find in a larger city. Upscale and minimalistic. Very pleasant. I sat at the bar so unsure about service at a table. Unfortunately, I felt overlooked at the bar, especially since I wasn't drinking. The staff was extremely busy making drinks and I had to get their attention whenever I needed anything. Would recommend making reservations to get a table seat to receive proper service. I ordered the burger with fries. Cooked well but the flavor was nothing special. Will return and try something else!

Service was spot on throughout the entire night. We started with the deviled eggs, half plain and half Chef's Choice. The Chef's Choice were the best, drizzled with chili crisp (or pickled Szechuan peppercorns) and topped with a tiny gherkin and fresh dill. The soup of the day was a cabbage and radish soup. It was interesting and very homey but I wish I had ordered the salad. I had the Novarro Farm sweet Potato Gnocchi (kale and pecan pesto, Birch Bottom Farm Georgia candy roaster, fresh chevre). I was a little hesitant about the kale pesto but should NOT have been. This dish was delicious--great garlic flavor. Would order again. The burger looked amazing and while The Hubs said it was good, he also said it needed some more spice. They had a couple of rotating beers from Heirloom--a Mexican Lager and an Italian Pilsner. I had the Water Lily cocktail, their take on an Aviation. Order it just because it's beautiful (and refreshing). The photo does not depict the deep color of it. I asked what other gin based cocktails they had on their menu. They didn't but the server/bartender offered to make me a Bee's Knees for the second round. It was delicious! The atmosphere here is casual but the food is elevated. I kept thinking this is what a French bistro would be like inside. I want to come back and shop the market. Oh, and the apple pie was excellent as well!

The chicken was excellently cooked and was tender and moist with ever-so-slightly crisped edges. The sauce was tangy and the capers added a bite that worked perfectly with it on a way that really made the chicken piccata shine as a dish. The whipped potatoes did not have a lot of flavor on their own, but meshed well with the pan sauce. At the conclusion of the meal, the check came with an Andes mint. I love those, and while it is a small gesture, it made me smile and improved my evening just that little bit more. This was a great experience with great food! 4.5/5

The staff was always quirky, the food was good, and the place ran smoothly even when there was a long line waiting for tables. This visit, our party had 6 people and we got there around 9:30 on a Sunday morning, before the breakfast/brunch/lunch rush and there weren't many tables occupied so the service was fast and attentive. Our coffee was always topped off, and the water carafe always full of ice water. Once our orders were placed the food came out faster than expected. I had the Chickito (flour tortilla around eggs, cheddar cheese, green onions, and chicken, with small containers of salsa, sour cream, and guacamole), and it was good, but not great. Next time I'd ask for more salsa. It also comes with home fries, which are my favorite variety of breakfast potato - crispy outsides and soft insides. Other folks ordered omelette, biscuits, other items off the menu, and all said their meals were very good. The chalkboard with specials says clearly at the top that they add 20% to every check, but I can't recall if it said it was a service fee or gratuity. Either way, they automatically add the tip which, in my opinion, lowers the bar for staff to do a good job. This means, go early to get better service to make the automatic +20% worth it. Overall, I'm going with 3 stars because of that extra 20%. If they didn't do that I'd give it 4 stars.
