They have excellent live music every night and often a very small cover fee for the bands in the evenings. The owners are some of Tulsa's talented musicians and the employees are super friendly. There's a cute patio in front and a pool table in the back. Its non-smoking except for the patio and is a very safe place, frequented by all ages.

We were being pushed out before closing and the attitude left a lot to Be desired. Again Paula was fantastic and was having a great time until I'm not sure who she was showed up and began to ruin the vibe for everyone. Hopefully their management handles this situation otherwise m my team will find another spot to unwind after the large renovation at St Francis.

Still waiting for Yelp to let us include half stars -- so 3.5 stars for this venue!…read more I agree with another reviewer who referred to this as an upscale dive bar. The sound system was excellent (I'd suggest sitting farther back of intense noise is an issue for you). The band we saw was an 80s tribute band whose name I can't remember, but they were awesome. We didn't have any food, so I can't offer thoughts on that -- I will say that the non-beer selection of hard alcohol was super limited. I'm a bourbon person and I think there was Jack Daniel's and Maker's and that's about it. Not sure about other types of alcohol. For an entertainment spot, though, definitely 4 stars. Look forward to returning the next time I'm in Tulsa!

Yeah you get the idea. (He forgot my father's side ended up charging us for fries, he never ordered.) My father asked for their slaw, when we received it I asked if the mango slaw was different they said no. So they have mayonnaise in with the mango slaw yeah (marshmallows and Jello would not helped). Food & service, 2nd chance was here when they first opened, last time I went there they first opened. This time was worse! Didn't know if the casino was opened, then he asked the customer thinking they worked there. The customer was so taken back when he they asked are you serving food the guy didn't know what to say, almost had the six or eight top leave. I'm leaving reviews to warn people at this point would sucks. Not why I like to leave reviews. Anyway

But none of the extenuating circumstances were their fault. it's what you do with the situation. They handled it with total aplomb. Thus 3*. We were immediately seated. The three of us ordered chicken fajitas, tamale appetizer and Yucatán Tacos. I failed to take photos so please bear with my descriptions. Hubby loves his fajitas. Especially Los Cabos. This order disappointed. They didn't look quite right to me. My tamale appetizerr was a complete failure. Totally charred, for a better word. The two of them looked like beef fingers about the size of my middle finger with masa tucked around each like a little bed. Cheese burned to plate. "As of April 2026, Los Cabos Mexican Grill in the Tulsa area offers a Handmade Spicy Beef Tamales appetizer, featuring two shredded beef tamales in spicy masa topped with chili con carne or queso, often served with sour cream." If it's sour cream you know it's gonna be a little drizzle. I asked for more queso & got about 1 1/2 tablespoons. I Ended up asking for the plate that accompanies fajitas. The dish, burnt, just needed "stuff". You can add rice/beans if you wish. Either make/serve appropriately or not at all. I love tamales. Buy some originals at Reasors, add queso & pico on a bed of rice w/ cilantro and there's a tasty meal (steam the tamales). Our friend who ordered Yucattan tacos at last minute over ceviche, was appalled. The beef was so fatty she couldn't eat It. No cilantro. For $16 that's pretty bad. BUT, returning to the top. The staff was pleasant in midst of this complete mess and responded/delivered to our every request and there were many. We'll be back on a better day so Hubby can get his fajitas fix. Throw in some shrimp and I'll be happy too.

I ordered something that was similar to a chicken pot pie. It was pretty tasty. Although I would say the puff pastry gets pretty messy, but maybe I was just an idiot and don't know how to eat it! The "chips" that can with it were good as well. My only complaint was that the dish was small, so if you are starving, you might still be hungry after. The price was a bit steep for what you get, but you do get authentic British food so that's cool.
