What a fantastic little find! We stopped by for brunch as this "Mediterranean-inspired" brunch caught our eye. It lived up to our expectations and exceeded them. The restaurant is bright, clean, and modern. We started with the Smooth Criminal cocktail and the Pineapple Sangria. Both great. Well balanced, unique ingredients, everything you want in a unique cocktail. We did order the whipped feta appetizer, but unfortunately they were very busy and there was some miscommunication. We didn't get to eat it at the restaurant, but they kindly packaged it for us to take home and we enjoyed it later. Although it was good, it would have been way better fresh. But these things happen, it didn't spoil our brunch. On to the mains: lamb shoulder hash...at brunch? Yes, please!!! Topped with two perfectly poached eggs, and brunch potatoes on the side with a nice crisp salad and fresh bread. The lamb was seasoned to perfection, and melted in my mouth. The biggest surprise for me were the potatoes. Brunch potatoes are usually overly greasy and bland. These were fresh, salted, and had the perfect crispness. I would like to think they are fresh, but even if they're frozen...well done! I would have happily eaten 2-3 of these lamb dishes. The French toast was the second entree. Brown butter and maple foam, on top of a piece of French toast that is the size of a small child. Even with all of the sauce, the toast was still crisp. It was a very heavy dish, some fresh berries with some acidity would be nice to cut through it, but the overall flavor was on point. The wine list is exquisite. If you enjoy good wine, this is the spot for you. Their reserve list has some absolute bangers on it at a very reasonable price. All in all, it was a nice experience. We would happily recommend and return. read more

Huge bar, great selection of whisky! Im pregnant so couldn't partake. But, just looking at everyones fancy drink orders was fun and they all looked amazing. 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! read more

Came on a Saturday night and it was packed! We didn't have a reservation so we sat at the bar. This restaurant is sort of tucked away and the main entrance is through a building. Decor is dim and intimate, very nice. It was fun watching the bartenders mixing and crafting drinks. The patrons here kept them busy. I ordered an espresso martini without Bailey's (Oren's way), which was decent. For dinner we had the lamb shoulders, brussel sprouts and a burger. The lamb came unexpected in almost a meatloaf shaped slide and it was tender flavorful. Quite good! The Brussels sprouts were nicely done and tasty. As for burger, I was indifferent on. I had a friend who said it was his favorite, but I thought it was fine. They need to change the buns. The fries were awesome. Looking forward to coming back again! read more

This was our second time coming to Oren. I thoroughly enjoy the experience every time we go and it has a changing menu that never disappoints. We were celebrating a years worth of accomplishments and decided Oren was the spot for it. The food was great, drinks were crisp and the apps were fulfilling and I have nothing but great things to express about the service staff. If you go to Oren be sure to try the Short Rib Pasta as it is filling, tasty and well worth the price. Be sure to was it down with a Negroni. read more

New fav Brunch restaurant in Tulsa. Everything was fantastic. The food, service, and the vibe were 10/10. I'm from NY and have high expectations and it's been hard to find food we really like. Also, I have been searching for goat cheese arancini after having some years ago; they were sooo good and even better heated up at home. Can't wait to come back for dinner! read more

This location is in a shared location with valet parking at night. The entrance is a little tricky to find. It is in the middle of the courtyard. They have a lovely outdoor courtyard that is covered. We were seated outside right away. Our waitress was knowledgeable and friendly however after we ordered she didn't check in often or stop by after the food was delivered. We had to flag someone else down to get some items that we ordered but weren't served to us. I got the trout and it was a little bland, there was some pesto on the potatoes and it went well with the fish. The potatoes portion was very small. I think ordering a side with your meal is ideal. I got the Caesar salad and thought the dressing was bland. read more

My husband and I visited this place for brunch and left displeased. The vibe was ok. Food was decent. Service was disappointing. We overheard one of the servers actually refuse to serve a guest that walked in because "she tips like sh*t" .. we have never witnessed anything like this before. My husband worked in the restaurant business for years and even he was shocked. VERY distasteful for any restaurant, upscale or not! The server was a brunette with short bangs and tattoos all on her arms (I believe her name was Zanida) and her energy was dark although we noticed she tried to mask it with a smile. We will surely not be visiting again read more

A new restaurant for us. We arrived at 2pm on Sunday and greeted and seated immediately. Staff was very pleasing and our server arrived promptly. We ordered the Steak and eggs off the brunch menu. Our food arrived in a timely manner and plated beautifully. The steak was prepared perfect and very tasty and tender. As a fussy one to please on my eggs, they hit the mark, perfect. Everything was delicious. Many thanks for a great service and our experience. I give them a 5 star/100% rating. Excellent job! read more

Dinner tonight was terrific. i came to Tulsa to celebrate my sister in law and brother's special birthdays. I asked them to select a very nice restaurant, they selected Oren. I contacted the restaurant to see if they could acknowledge this special event. The reply Igot was, "...of course, dessert is on us". I thought, how nice. When we arrived at Oren, our table was ready and waiting with a Happy Birthday o the table. And, our menus were specially printed and across the top read: Happy Birthday Ronnie and Allen,, what a lovely touch! Our server, Ava, was wonderful and very attentive, We ordered Caponata, which was probably the best I ever had. We each ordered a salad, I had the Cherry Tomato with goat cheese--delish! We ordered the trout and the short ribs with pasta, also quite yummy. For dessert we had sherbet and the vanilla ice cream sundae. As an added treat, Ava brought us chocolate chip cookies. All and all a wonderful celebratory dinner. I highly recommend read more

A cute tucked away restaurant! The clean white interior with greenery was very refreshing. It almost feels underground. The food was rich in flavor and fresh tasting! Soft ambiance, not noisy at all. Attentive staff and made great for an impromptu date night. We loved the whipped feta! It came with pickled veggies and bread which was exquisitely toasted! I can't wait to come back and try the scallops! read more

Oren - Whipped feta - New American Near Me - Tulsa, Oklahoma

I got take out from Oren while in Tulsa for work and it was such a delicious meal. I got the whipped feta and chicken shawarma. The whipped feta was great and came with a delicious grilled bread but I was super impressed by the chicken shawarma. It came with a side of hummus, a little Greek salad, rice, a deliciously fluffy pita, and the chicken topped with a tahini drizzle. The perfect meal! And to top it off, they added in 2 little fresh baked chocolate chip cookies. Delicious! read more

This was my second time here. We started with their hummus with house made cibattia bread...this sounds so standard but it was delicious. I got their beet salad and it's delicious. We split the gnocchi and it was so fresh and good. The service is always good and it people are friendly. It's a great indoor space with nice bar area and they have nice size outdoor space too. Loved that your get little chocolate chip cookies with sea salt as a parting gift...great touch and tasty too! I have had the short ribs and rigatoni and it's very good. read more

Oren - Great gin cocktail...something graceful - New American Near Me - Tulsa, Oklahoma

Very poor service. Greeted with water appropriately, from our server named Tanner. Took our drink orders, a beer and a French 75. My beer arrived from a runner with a question - did you order this? Uh, yes.. "Ok it's the last one we have." The beer was murky, and it should not have been. That's what you get with the bottom of a keg I guess. 10 minutes later comes the French 75. The person who brought us the cocktail took our dinner order... not Tanner. Asked if we would like veggies or bread with the burrata, suggested the veggies so we agreed to get both. We did not get the veg. The fries were supposed to come with a n Aleppo aioli, which we had to request after they arrived. Also ordered brussel sprouts, which we did not get either and had to ask for them from Tanner, who then had to check and see if we ordered them because he didn't know our order. We felt like a complete afterthought. Very loud, low ceilings entrapping the hustle and bustle of the patrons and staff. read more

A hidden gem for brunch. The French toast stole the show and the lamb shoulder hash was great!

What a find! Oren has both a great vibe and a menu FULL of flavor. Our server, Sloan, took time to explain the menu and course out our brunch. Nothing was hurried. Although we did not enjoy any cocktails with our meal, the art of watching the bartender craft their brunch cocktails was impressive! We will be back and next time we may just sit outside. read more

The prices have increased and the portions have decreased (just like everywhere else). But, the quality remains fine and Oren remains one of the best places to dine in Tulsa. As usual, the decor and service were spot on. They have changed their cocktail pricing slightly, but are very transparent about it. read more

Pros: my sister in law likes this place. She's been here for brunch several times. A very good friend of mine also likes this place. I thought the potatoes were ok. Cons: I did not like it here for brunch. My eggs Benedict was of the deconstructed variety. It tasted ok, but in no way could be described as an eggs Benny. The bread was a hard piece placed to the side. No meat? Eggs cooked well. Over spinach? I love spinach so I guess that's fine. Too much hollandaise sauce. I got a lemoncello spritz. Hated the quality of the champagne. read more

Our meal was outstanding as always. We have never been disappointed with this restaurant. It continues to be one of our favorites in Tulsa. The hummus (with a flavorful topping) and ciabatta were delish! We also ordered fries as an appetizer because they are so good and prepared perfectly. Definitely the best pea risotto EVER!! Because we were celebrating an anniversary and birthday they brought us a couple panna cotta desserts that were made to perfection. Chef Matthew and his team continue to execute excellence in all they do. The duck and steak are a couple of our favorites but didn't get it last night. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone I know. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! Show less Date of visit: August 2023 read more

Vegetarian review: My Experience: I entered on a Saturday afternoon without a reservation. The location was beautiful in a boutique part of town Service: 5/5 Our server came quickly and was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Drinks: 5/5 Our party ordered off of the mocktail menu, getting the Joshua Tree: PINEAPPLE, SAGE, GINGER, LIME, PEYCHAUD'S BITTERS And the Nojito: CUCUMBER, MINT, CRANBERRY, LEMON, LIME, SODA Both were fabulous and very refreshing, well spiced non alcoholic drinks Food: 5/5 A lot of vegetarian options on the menu. I ordered the Çılbır, or "Turkish eggs" and the biscuits and gravy. The yogurt that they used in the Çılbır was more similar to a Lebneh than I've had in the states--Delicious! Overall, the restaurant has a lovely decor and a nice blend of European and Levantine influences read more

After moving to Tulsa, I wanted to treat my parents since they've been so helpful during the move. A friend of mine recommended Oren for their brunch menu (especially the French toast) so I made a reservation the night before. The restaurant is located on the ground floor at Center 1 which has a private lot. It was a bit confusing when trying to find a sign for Oren from the street but we figured it out. It's further inside across a courtyard. The server was a bit slow to get to us initially but she was very attentive once she had our orders. Food: The Benedict - a bit different since there was no English muffin base. Eggs are on a bed of spinach and it comes with a slice of toast. 7/10 The Standard - eggs, potatoes, toast, greens, and the best peppered bacon I've had in a long time. 7/10 French Toast - one huge slice of bread with a frothy maple cream sauce and pecans. So good but a little too sweet for me. 9/10 Outdoor patio and courtyard dining available. White tablecloths make the atmosphere seem very posh. Prices are moderate for the amount of food. I will definitely return to try more from Oren. read more

The chicken sandwich was amazing! The Brussels Sprouts was also delicious and with a kick of spice. The drip coffee was also nice and strong and smooth. The reason I am not giving them 5 stars is that the waitress was not very good. She definitely had an attitude and did not seem to want to be there. She did not check on us very often and was also hard to flag down for needs. All 4 of us at the table were dissatisfied with her service. read more

Oren - Chicken sandwich-- delicious!!! - New American Near Me - Tulsa, Oklahoma

**Update: 3/5/20** Crab cakes are incredible, bedded with vinaigretty (but absolutely edible) veggies - radish, onions, mandarins, and avocado. What a delightful, not too heavy, bite. Also enjoyed the labneh on some of the best done thick toast i have ever had. The labneh was seasoned very simply with some olive oil, cracked pepper and seeds (caraway?). It could have used a touch more seasoning, but fresh, clean as a whistle and tasty. I am a fan. would like to explore their crafty cocktail list further. read more

Oren - Superbly executed crab cakes - New American Near Me - Tulsa, Oklahoma

Went to Oren to celebrate my engagement with my mother and fiancée. We had a wonderful wonderful meal. There was one dish though that stood out above the rest. Hot honey Brussel sprout. Loving God. I thought the first bite opened a portal in time and space to the dimension of culinary bliss. I swear I have never tasted something so delicious. Honestly I know the rest of the food was wonderful but I can't think around those sprouts. My mom and fiancée enjoyed their meals immensely but were distracted by my wild gesticulations and vocalizing about the Brussel sprouts. read more

Booked a reservation with my husband and son for Valentine's Day through open table, like the restaurant asked, weeks ago. Two weeks from the date, they called to cancel our reservation because we were booked at the bar, and they can't have a child at the bar. Here's the catch- open table doesn't say what kind of table you are booking. They had to have placed us there themselves and messed up. Now, two weeks from Valentine's Day, and we are traveling from out of town, and there are no reservations anywhere. Don't trust this place! read more

Our most recent experience dining at Oren exceeded our expectations once again. In fact, we've never had less than a great experience here. This time we had a large party for brunch and it was great. We had some guests in town from CA and they commented on how much they enjoyed their brunch and over all experience. The eggs Benedict is outstanding served with a toasted Tuscan bread that really makes it for me. The owner greeted us and followed up with us after the meal, which was appreciated. read more

This is a great restaurant. Good food, good service, good ambiance, great location. We love being at Oren but everytime we leave we remark on the fact that they charge $30 for a miniscule piece of chicken.We consistently return because we feel as though it's a healthier option in Tulsa and there are no other "mediterranean" options (in quotes because this isnt really mediterranean). We really appreciate that there are many vegetarian options and wish there were more fish choices. Also, please bring back the gnudi and risotto!! I think you are teetering on the edge of perfection. It seems as though you need to decide if you are a tapas restaurant or you are intending to create entree plates. If entrees, wonderful, just make them bigger or charge less! If tapas, even better but charge way less and offer a better pricepoint to be able to share and order multiple dishes. read more

This is my favorite restaurant in Tulsa since moving here. I found it by accident, on a glorious spring day cross cutting an alley parking lot in Brookside. There was this wonderful patio space and it looked like a restaurant so we inquired, and were seated outside around brunch time. Little did we know, the menu was so amazing, we ordered three entrees between two of us. Tulsa Boyfriend and I fought over the nitro-frothed apple syrup ensconced French Toast - we tore it apart like animals. It was amazing. I have never experienced anything like it. Boyfriend had the brunch burger served on an English Muffin that came with BOWL of fries (see the photos)- Seriously, these are the best Fries I have had outside of Paris/Belgium, the best the best the best. Served of course with som aoli aka mayo...OMG. I want them now. I had the beet salad with a filet of salmon. Stunning and vibrant delicious beets in a citrus vinaigrette with a crispy grilled salmon fillet- PERFECT. And the coffee was amazing too. Can't wait to go back. Just checked my schedule, going back this weekend for sure- can't wait to try dinner. read more

Such a cute spot! I can see why people love coming here. I recently went during brunch hours and started with a sangria which was amazing! It was late and I didn't want breakfast so ordered a chicken sandwich. It was good, but not great. I would've appreciated a seasoned fried chicken sandwich. Lol... I got hot sauce and it wasn't hot... I loved the fries. Excited to go back soon and try other menu options. read more

A little hard to find, you have to follow the signs so if you've never been there like me I promise it'll take you a minute to get to it.

Oren is a lovely find in Brookside! The aesthetic of the restaurant is so pretty and modern, which sets up a cool vibe. Cocktails were on point and the service was lovely!

My wife and I went to Oren for lunch the other day. It is located in the cool parry of Peoria where Trader Joe's, Lululemon, and a bunch of other cool shops and restaurants. The restaurant is fairly updated inside, but could use a little attention. Wait staff was attentive and kind. The food was excellent! Here is the rundown: 1. Ciabatta and lebna: the bread was homemade, warm, crispy, and full of flavor. The lebna was lIke a yogurt as thick as cream cheese with olive oil and sumac on it. So good! Like clotted cream. 2. Beet salad: earthy flavor with fresh pistachios and feta cheese complimenting each other well, with a little burst of citrus to refresh everything from the mandarin slices. 3. Crab cakes: worth it! Best I've had in Oklahoma. The fried crust on the outside is super crispy, yet thin so as not to overpower the crab flavor. THe crab inside was lump crab, and not fake or gummy from too much bread crumb. The inside practically fell apart, which is a great sign that they don't skimp on the crab and the flavor proved it! My wife had the broccoli salad, which I tasted and it was good. The tomato soup was take it or leave it. Excited to try more dishes here in the future!! read more
