I'm going to say it. I didn't have high hopes going to a Tulsa sushi restaurant. In the Raw Vu is a good spot that could hold its own in many cities. Service is friendly and responsive. The interior is contemporary. The bar looked fun and made good drinks. The view from the sixth floor is great and sunsets are spectacular. I'd love to be here on a night the baseball team is playing. Let's get to the main event. Edamame was great. What made it different was the salt on the pods. I couldn't place it and didn't ask but it just had a little "something something". Loved it. The recommended tuna nachos were a beautiful maguro cubed with two aioli sauces, jalapenos and some excellent restaurant made wonton(?) chips. Light and flavorful. Interestingly, we had to ask for a nigiri menu while the primary menu had all the appetizers, soups, salads, rolls and mains. Nigiri was good and your standard options. Rice ratio was good and fish well cut and prepared. Rolls were great size and two could feed two people. One person in our group of eight ordered the salmon main and it looked fantastic and she said it was very good. In the Raw Vu, I'm sorry for doubting you. See you next month. read more

The blatant racism, discrimination, and more so the disrespect that was given towards a group called, Soft Life Society | Tulsa , last night at In The Raw: Vu is disappointing, disgusting, and disgraceful. From the corporate operations director to the manager on duty last night, I will NEVER be doing business or dining with them ever again. The manager last night flat out called us out of our names using language I cannot even bring myself to type. In short, all because we asked for our proper change and for our tickets to be reworked. Every restaurant and place of business can do that with ease. That shouldn't call for us to be disrespected. It makes zero sense. Zero. We were respectful, pretty, and paid! We weren't "loud, ghetto, or any (special choice of words)". So with that being said, if you're brown, we're not welcomed there!!! This holds serious weight. This did happen. This will be dealt with in the proper way and through the proper channels. I do not tolerate disrespect of any form. read more

Food, service, ambiance all awesome! The feta chicken bowl is one of the best meals I've ever had! Loved it and will definitely be going back read more

I loved everything! What delicious seafood we ate. I couldn't resist trying the specialty sushi roll--the raspberry salmon roll. I think this was my favorite thing I ate. That salmon was so tasty, so fresh, so tender, and so satisfying, coupled with the cream cheese, raspberry aioli and shrimp--it was amazing. It's a little pricey for once sushi roll, but if you get just one roll, this is a really good one to get. I loved the blackened salmon. It was crunchy on top, juicy in the middle, and perfectly cooked. The fried rice (instead of plain rice) was really tasty too. The veggies were nice. All together I loved this dish. My nephew enjoyed the lomi salad and took half of it home. We split the tempura bananas and enjoyed it. If you like funnel cake, you will like the tempura bananas. I can't wait to go back! I need to stay close by so that I can imbibe with a few of the cocktails. The views from the patio are spectacular especially with the fire pits going. read more

Love this location downtown! Pros: the view is amazing , the music is a vibe, and the service is great. I sat at the bar this time around and the bartender was super attentive . It always feels like a diverse crowd . The outdoor patio is amazing and a beautiful view of the city . The food is always great and drinks as well. Love the Korean BBQ wings, fried rice, edamame, and sushi. Cons: sometimes the staff don't promote the extra menus or happy hour specials. It would be great if that was consistent . read more

Went for my friend's birthday & it had an amazing rooftop view to the Tulsa tough! Great service & good food! Great spot to socialize or celebrate. However The food was average in my opinion but the view makes up for it. The not raw combo was definitely not good. Spicy noodles I would recommend. Our hostess was also very kind & patient which made our experience worth it! Definitely would come back for drinks & a chat! read more

The Thai chicken salad has been on my mind since I had it! It was so delicious and there were huge portions! We also had the shrimp appetizer (not pictured) and it was so delicious! Everything everyone ordered was amazing! We will definitely be back to enjoy the beautiful view! We went here for my birthday, we had more people than initially planned for and the restaurant was kind, understanding and did whatever they could to accommodate us. We had such a great time! The service was top notch! Marselle was perfect! Thank you!! read more

We normally love ITR and have been to this location before (with a good experience). Our recent experience was less than stellar. We went for our first date night in 3 months and were underwhelmed. The wait staff was very kind, helpful, and understanding that we just wanted to slow roll our night. But the drink service was extra slow, our water glasses were rarely refilled, etc. Food was "meh". The rolls are things we normally order from the other ITR locations, but this night, the overall taste wasn't what we've come to expect from ITR. Also the ambiance was TOO DARK. I understand having a dim lit room to help with ambiance, but when it is too dark to eat, even with table lamps, that's not helpful. Even just turning the lights up a little bit would have been helpful. read more

The staff members are very nice and very tentative. The atmosphere is very nice especially if you sit outside of the roof top patio. The food is so so. I ordered some rolls and they all lacked flavor. The rice for the rolls was under seasoned and kind of mushy the not a good texture for sushi. The ahi tuna was a very off putting color it should be a vibrant red and it was this dark almost brown color it tasted fresh but was poor quality. I maybe spoiled with the sushi in Los Angeles, but I have had better sushi in Illinois than this place. I don't think I'd come back when I'm in town. read more

Fantastic views of downtown Tulsa and great atmosphere. We sat at the bar which has some of the best unobstructed views. Bar tender was fabulous too with amazing energy and a great smile. Food was perfection! A few items I thought could help earn 5 stars is the booking system. Tried to book a table at 5 but said no availability so booked 4. But our waitress was busy with photos. Ahhhh. Also - chairs could use a good cleaning or maybe replacement. Overall great experience and I'm certain we'll be back. Happy New Year 2026! read more

This is my favorite "In the Raw" that I have dined at. The view was superb & the booth we were seated in was very comfortable. My daughter ordered their "Hello Kitty Roll" with chicken & a side of fries from their extremely inclusive kids menu (all kids meals come with ice cream too)! She ate every bite of her food & dessert. My friend & I ordered the Candy roll, the New York roll, the Rock n Roll roll, the BOK roll, and the Restless Ribbon roll. They were all so delicious! This is definitely a restaurant I can see myself coming back to whether with friends & family or seated alone at the bar. read more

We had Marcel as our server. We ordered the duck bites, which were perfectly prepared. Hot and the sauce was spicy. My partner order a miso soup which was good and the spicy Tako salad which was fresh and delicious. It was larger than most but had a taste as above average that would rate an 8 out of 10. I requested a substitution in the cody2 roll for tuna as opposed to salmon and they were able to accommodate request without hesitation. When it arrived it looked good but it was not what was expected. It was a roll that you would get at your grocery store sushi's counter. While it may be that I have a high expectation being that I have lived in places near the coast like Florida and California it was dry and lacked seafood/fish. I would rate the roll a 5. Every thing else was good and tasty. My partner said it is good for Okie's. Overall the view it great service is good and I would recommend in downtown. read more

We've gone twice now and have always had excellent service and food. Great view of downtown from one side and a great view of the ballpark from the other. Seated promptly both visits. Drinks arrived quickly. The tables have little touch lamps. You can leave it off or choose between three different lighting options. As with any restaurant, the more people dining the louder it gets, but it's not been so loud you can't have a conversation with your dining companion/s. Looking forward to warmer weather so we can sit on the balcony, which has gas fire pits and plenty of seating, including couches if you're just hanging out for some cocktails after dinner. read more

Downtown Tulsa Wonderful dinner with my Babygirl!!!! The view was amazing here and the patio in Spring will be so nice with the fire pit and sunsets Sushi was phenomenal like chef's kiss every bite! Ginger roll was packed full with crab cake, cream cheese and avocado and other goodness! Fried veg rice was so full of fresh veggies and flavor perfect didn't even need soy sauce. The rum punch (32oz) had nice kick to it but not for $20 too much juice haha gimmie a shot next time. Dim lit here for romantic date or celebration. We sat at the sushi bar neat to watch them prepare everything. Music was bumpin all the hip hop and R&B what a vibe! Definitely will be back! read more

The sushi is terrible. Fish does not taste fresh. The escolar was chewy and grainy, which it should never be. I couldn't finish it.

We just had a birthday dinner for my daughter and 14 of her friends while my wife and I dined at a different table. Jaynna took care of the girls while we had Lazandra as our server. Our food was good but the service was AMAZING. Jaynna and Lazandra took such good care of us and were so attentive to every detail. They went above and beyond and even brought us candles for my daughter's cake because we forgot them. We usually go to ITR on Brookside but this downtown location has such a cool vibe. read more

We recently went here for an anniversary dinner. We ordered the miso soup to start and were impressed with the fresh scallions and mushrooms, which had a great taste. We also had 5 various sushi rolls and were all delicious. The views were views from the sixth floor were spectacular as you had window seating over the ball park and down town skyline as well. The only con was the worn upholstery on the bar seat velvet and the place could have used a deep cleaning as evidence of splashes from sauce on windows and table settings. read more

We love In The Raw Vu. Windows surround three sides of the restaurant with beautiful views of the city and surrounding area. There is outdoor seating and the interior is very cool. They have happy hour Monday through Thursday offering a selection of half price appetizers and $2.50 domestic beers, $5 Sake and $4 wine. We were here on a Tuesday and the specials were edamame, eggrolls, restless ribbon roll, and New York roll. The egg rolls are absolutely fabulous as the other. Actually everything is awesome.

In the Raw at the Vu location has the best view. It is in the 6th floor so you are able to see the Tulsa baseball field and downtown. Free parking on weekends. Price was fair for the food, portion size, and view. Everything in picture with tip was $35. Service was alright. Only 2 tables of customer were sitting outdoor so server was more focused on the tables indoor. Couldn't find server when wanted to pay and get more water. read more

Food was good. I didn't get the full menu offered to me, just their rolls. So I didn't see any nigiri or sashimi other than their expensive dinner options. Couldn't decide what to get so my server recommended I try a custom roll, chefs choice. I told her I wanted salmon and no tempura and I got a delicious salmon and tuna topped roll. It was tasty. I was still a little hungry so I ordered a spicy scallop roll (had to ask if they could do it) but later saw online that they do have nigiri and sashimi and hand rolls. I'd go again but it's a little pricey read more

We celebrated my daughter's college graduation at In the Raw Vu on May 4, 2024. I made the reservations at the end of March for 8 of us and requested a table with a view of downtown Tulsa. It was fantastic! We arrived on time, our table was perfect with the best view! Sasha, our server, was amazing! It was a Saturday night, the restaurant was definitely very busy, yet she made us feel as if we were her only table. We brought a cake to celebrate as a surprise for my daughter, and the staff graciously kept it in the refrigerator until we were ready for dessert. Sasha also brought my daughter a surprise dessert of her choice and helped us take group pictures so that we could all be in them. The food, of course, was absolutely delicious and we did not have long wait times at all even though it was a busy Saturday night. All in all, it was a very memorable experience in helping us celebrate my daughter's college graduation. read more

Waiter was not helpful and friendly, the sushi was below average compared to other Japanese restaurant, a bit pricey

In the Raw is a sushi staple in Tulsa and has been for years. This spot though, is NEXT LEVEL! Tulsa has been in desperate need for a place like this for years and now we have it! THe view of downtown is incredible from inside. It reminds me of what I've enjoyed in many other cities! You'll find the same amazing sushi and service as you will at their other locations but it comes with a VIEW! It is in the name afterall. I really like how it's laid out and easy to access once you get off the elevator. It makes you special and important just going in. I'm a regular guy, but it's nice to feel special and it so delivers for that here. I met some friends late on a weekend and I only had one sushi roll. I had been out bar hopping in the Blue Dome district and a late night snack attack was filled with the Cody Roll. Overall, easy 5 out of 5 from me and I look forward to visiting many times again! read more

To die for views and a feeling of fancy I was thrilled to find this place at the top of a building right off the Turnpike in Tulsa. We had the original bento box (best option of everything we had), fried calamari, fried chicken rice, Korean wings and a candy roll. All were superb and fairly priced. The only small complaint was the time it took to receive food. We will be back! read more

The experience is cool and the service was great We had reservations and sat on the patio. Once the sun set it got really dark. Couldn't even see our food. We asked our server for a little table lamp that they had put on a few tables and he explained that they were trying to find some more but the manager didn't want to buy some for all the tables so they had trouble finding any. So I ended up taking one off another table myself just so we could see our food. We both got the tuna poke nachos and then both a sushi roll and a drink. That night slept horrible. And the next day we both felt like we had food poisoning. We were both in the bathroom more than normal. We didn't eat anything else so it's hard not to pinpoint it. Unfortunate. But it cost us 100$ to get food poisoning in the dark with no lamps. Haha. read more

In the Raw Vu certainly has a view but does not have the sushi. The sushi is incredibly overpriced and over done. They don't even include traditional sushi on their regular menu (which is comprised of over complicated and over priced rolls that are barely sushi themselves). And when you get their rolls the sushi included in them is very minuscule and comprised mainly of rice. Simply put, this is a nice place for drinks but that's it. For sushi i would take your business elsewhere. read more
