What a find in downtown Tulsa! Extremely friendly service, a creative cocktail menu, and excellent Jamaican and Caribbean dishes done right. The four of us traveling on business have varied palates, but all of us agreed that this food was phenomenonal. One of our group had the Claytini cocktail to start, made with orange vodka, Bacardi limon, Malibu, orange juice, lemon juice, and simple syrup. A little fru-fru? Maybe, but it looked great. For entrees, one of us ordered the shark sandwich, which came out in a puffy bread. Two had the jerk chicken, which was marinated for 24 hours, cooked over a wood grill, and was seasoned perfectly. The allspice and Scotch bonnet peppers hit just the right notes. I ordered the braised oxtail, which was falling-apart tender and served with potatoes and carrots in a rich, thick, beef sauce. Think about the best pot roast you've ever had. I bet this was better. Too full for desserts, we all claimed we'd come back to try more dishes from the menu. read more

Our second time in 7 days - exceptional staff was very attentive without hovering. We love the decor with embedded leaf light shades and the way the late afternoon sun filters through the drapes. The Callalou soup was better than what I had in Puerta Plata DR, and the curry chicken was great. read more

the food is excellent. we had a jerk chicken plate and a shrimp place and i like that they served it with different style rice. i like the creamy style rice that the shrimp came. it does deliver the Caribbean flavor. the only knock on this place is that as i looked into the kitchen, i could see the waiter filling up the "bottled water" from the handsink and then serve it. most places probably do this, but try to be less obvious. also, it is most likely a health code violation. read more

Nice! Excellent service. Excellent drinks. We had the Salmon Rasta Pasta. It's heavy so I recommend you share.

We came in and were greeted by a very friendly hostess and decided to sit at the bar. Victor was our bartender and was very informed on the menu, specials, and even recommended a delicious drink for me! We got the five star treatment! Dinner was delicious and their spicy sauce is to die for! We will definitely be back to see Victor and have the delicious jerk chicken! read more

My goodness! What a gem in the Arts District of Tulsa. Celebrated my wife's birthday last week and it was delicious. When I googled "best fresh coconut shrimp" in the state of Oklahoma it didn't come up with an OKC restaurant, instead it was Tulsa's own Sisserou's. The coconut shrimp appetizer was absolutely unbelievable. In hindsight, we should have ordered two of them as 6 extra-large shrimp left us wanting more... The Bake & Shark was wonderful and reminded me of eat that very dish on Maracas Beach in Trinidad. What a delight! The Jamaican bread was splendid, and the Jerk Chicken from Dominica was very tasty with the cool creamy Avocado dipping sauce. Save room for Maya's Bread Pudding Delight as it is amazing. (recipe from the owner's daughter). Very unique and made from the Jamaican bread. Don't miss this place. It's a treat to remind us of ALL of the good food in the Caribbean. If they offer Blood Soup like we've had in Guyana, it would be fantastic. We're in! read more

Great food and great service. We reserved a booth but got seated at a table, other than that great place.

The food is delicious and the waiter was very friendly. My mom got the chicken curry and my friend got the shrimp curry and they both loved their food. We would love to come for a nice dinner another time. The waiter was very nice and attentive to us. read more

We've had carribean food in the Bahamas, St Maarten, USVI, and St Bart's. I'm not sure how to place this food, I'm hard pressed to call it carribean. I know that every island has its quirks, but I'm struggling to call this carribean. The food was good and flavorful, just not carribean to my tastes. The one exception was the beans and rice, which are some of the best I've ever had. Cocktails were also delicious. Easy location to walk to from downtown, the atmosphere was nice, lively, and I liked the decor. It's worth a try if you don't have any preconceived notions about what carribean food should taste like. read more

This is a pleasant surprise to a couple of foodies. Definitely recommend the beef pie appetizers. Lovely snapper. I'd come back to try more dishes. read more

The overall vibe is laid back and chill.. Great music, great drinks, EXCEPTIONAL food!!! Chicken curry and Rasta Pasta is where its at. It's a must visit. Service is a bit slow however. read more

Are you kidding me about this jerk chicken?? This is the best jerk chicken I've ever, ever had. Second time I've had it and its even better than before (if that's even possible). The food here is so very well made and everything is taken into consideration - the spices, the coolness, the heat. When you want good food, you want flavors that mix and mingle together in the best possible way and that's how it happens at Sisserou's. Add to that the fact that the fishes are fresh and so good and the meats are intense and flavorful... Man, oh, man. I've only been for lunch so far, but I am dying to go for dinner and share the full fish dinner (the 40 minute one). How beautiful does that look? Add to that the full drink menu and Sisserou's had me at Hey. :) read more

Went for a lunch this past week and it was a great experience! the server recommended the jerk chicken tacos and it came with baked mac n cheese. I've had many street tacos and these were pretty amazing. I'll definitely be back. read more

Sisserou's Caribbean Restaurant & Catering - Jerk chicken tacos with baked mac n cheese. - Caribbean Near Me - Tulsa, Oklahoma

Great date place! Bit price but worth the extra. Ambiance, decor, food staff, all excellent! Been a go to gift card for family present.

I gave this review 5 stars based on its local (and OKC) competition. In a city with more diversity and options, I probably would have given it 4 just because it isn't the greatest, most impressive meal I've ever eaten, but it was delicious and a welcome change to the norm. Plus, for the price, I thought the quality of the meal was excellent. My husband and I ate at Sisserou's last night. I called ahead due to an event in Tulsa, and we were seated and waited on promptly. Our server did an excellent job, and the owner (who appears to manage the place?) visited our table several times to check on us. The decor was modern and a tiny bit tropical without being tacky. It was very clean (even the restrooms were spotless). We were on a tight schedule, informed our waiter of our timeline, and were in and out on time without feeling rushed. We split the beef patties as our appetizer (these are basically empanadas). We got three good sized empanadas with a guava sauce. They were very good; I would have liked the beef to be a bit spicier, but the pastry crust was outstanding. I also liked the sauce. For dinner, we split the red snapper. They bake the entire fish and carve it table side. I don't love fish - I basically shared this to make my husband happy. That said, it was very fresh and the preparation was excellent. I really liked the pineapple sauce they served with it. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the fish and would happily order it again. I was satisfied with it even though I'm typically not a fish eater. We ordered the street corn and the mac and cheese for our sides. We loved the street corn! It was interesting and flavorful. The mac and cheese is more of a baked casserole than a saucy/soupy mac and cheese. I liked the texture and the mix of cheeses. It wasn't life changing, but it was tasty. For dessert, we orded the banana souffle crepe. It was huge - plenty for two (or even three or four) to share. It tasted like homemade banana pudding inside a crepe, with some chocolate to up the ante a little, and it came with ice cream and caramelized bananas. It was different from what we'd normally order, and we loved it! Our bill came in just under $80 before tip. We felt like we got our money's worth with an app, the lovely snapper, two sides, and a dessert. They have a number of more budget-friendly burgers, sandwiches, and salads on the menu, so don't be afraid to try it because of our bill! The service was excellent, the food was different than the OK norm and very good, and the atmosphere was pleasant. Oh, also, we both remarked several times that we were very impressed with the plating and food presentation. It all really looked beautiful and delicious. Don't be afraid to try this place! read more

Had the mahi mahi there last week and it was simply awesome! I love the location, the atmosphere & of course the customer service is impeccable!! read more

This was my first time here. I Really enjoyed the atmosphere of the place. Although the weight was a little long to get our bread and our food it was worth it. Everything tasted exceptional. I ordered the vegetable burger. It was one of the best vegetarian burgers I've had in town (only topped by Elote's). The sweet potato fries were also some of the best in town, almost as good mcnellies. I would recommend this place to my friends. read more

I've been to Sisserou's a hand full of times and will probably continue to do so. The service is friendly/competent and the food is pretty good. Both the Ahi Tuna Burger and Salad are tasty (the salad is a bit overdressed), the Coconut Shrimp is great/repeatable and the Lobster Thermidor is delicious. The only thing thus far I wouldn't repeat is the Roti Wrap. The Roti wasn't very authentic from my prior experience. I haven't had the Jerk Chicken yet but I've heard great things read more

This is one of my favorite downtown restaurants! The chicken curry and the shrimp curry are unique and super delicious. Service is above average for downtown. read more

We ate on a Friday night before going to Tulsa Opera. The staff was very accommodating to our schedule and very friendly. We had a sole special with a seafood sauce over new potatoes that was out of this world. I highly recommend this place. read more

Lovely and informed staff. I had a special: sweet flapjack that was piled with black beans, shrimp, a perfect sea bass filet and mango relish. Stabbed husband in hand with fork when he went in for 2nd bite. Unique cocktails, satisfying coconut and crab soup. The french fries (for my kid) were bland which is an asinine thing to complain about concerning a Caribbean eatery in Tulsa, OK. Intentional decor is chillax vs looking like a Kingston bordello. Happy to come here again! read more

LOVED this place!! I was in town for a few days and ended up eating at Sisserou's everyday for lunch. When I'm in a new city, I never eat at the same place twice, but the food was just so good. And the menu was very diverse. I would've also eaten here for dinner each night, but my boyfriend forced me to go somewhere else lol. He stays in the hotel across the street for work trips and already eats at Sisserou's every week. Who knew Tulsa would have such good Caribbean food. read more

Shrimp was some of the best I had! Chicken wings were amazing! The special I had I was not fond of tho

So, my original review was not very positive, so I am now amending it. I was disappointed in the amount of soup in my to go order, considering the price, and the fact that for $1 more you can get 1/2 a cuban too. But the owner called and tried to make it right. So for that, and the taste, I had to upgrade my review. I've eaten there a handful of times, and everything has been very delicious, and the customer service is the best I have experienced. The food has always tasted fresh...which is a very welcome change to most of the reheated frozen nonsense you get at a lot of other places. Guess that's why it costs a bit more. read more

Great food, service and atmosphere!! I got the oxtails and they were delicious! Had jerk chicken wings and beef patties as appetizers!! Will be back! read more

A great place located in the amazing Brady Arts District. Delicious food such as the yummy spicy orange sauce served with the bread, the tuna burger, the cuban, and the roti wrap to name a few. The only thing I've ever regretted ordering and eating is the banana souffle. I'd avoid that one. read more

Delicious and very authentic Caribbean food! Owner is very nice and wait staff is attentive. Love the atmosphere and the decor. My cucumber/avocado/tomato salad was awesome and their vinaigrette is delicious! Favorite part was the dessert - banana crepe was amazing!! read more

Just ate here for lunch. Jerk chicken tacos, and a Cuban. We both really enjoyed our food. Fresh, flavorful, and authentic. Very friendly waiter and the manager, Eben, came over to visit with us as well. We'll be back. (I forgot to take a picture-we dug into it too fast!) The address is on Boulder, but it's suite C, which is behind "46". The restaurant is easier accessed from Main. read more

Wonderful food especially considering the quality versus the price! We happened to have dinner during happy hour and loved the half priced apps! World class bartender with unique cocktails that make you feel like you are on a Caribbean getaway! read more

Great choices from menu. Excellent decor. The staff was very friendly. Will definitely visit anytime we're in Tulsa

Awesome caribbean food in an unexpected location. Their fried shark (bake & shark) was awesome. Plantain poppers delicious. Great service. I expect to become a regular on all my future Tulsa trips read more

Traveling through Tulsa on a business trip today and stopped for an early dinner. We all loved our food. Filet, Maui Maui, pork loin and the beet salad plus a crab cake appetizer. Eben came by the table to greet us and gave us a quick run down about the food prep and recommendations. Highly recommend this restaurant and we all agreed we will be back! read more

We were looking for a place near our hotel and Caribbean food sounded intriguing. We were seated quickly - but could tell they were a bit understaffed as our waiter apologized saying they had been slammed. Place was full and food was delicious. We had the jerk chicken, fried plantains and the meat pies. All so good. Our waiter did his best to stay on top of things - we recognized it and were good with a slower pace. We aren't from here but would definitely come back. read more

I have been coming here for maybe 3 or 4 years, no other place I would go to now this is HOME! You can't have a better experience than the good food that is put on a plate here. The drinks are one of a kind and the best bartender in Tulsa. The staff is the best friendly people you want to know. read more

Delicious and unique, a great addition to the Tulsa food scene. Ate there for the first time today and ordered the Crab Backs as an app. It has great flavor and texture but the portion is the smaller side, served with fresh melon balls. For the entree I had the Cuban, again delicious and served on unique grilled bread, portion is much more substantial and the fries were fresh and hot. Can't wait to try the other dishes. Service was superb as well. read more

Just driving through Tulsa on a road trip and decided to stop here for lunch and boy are we glad we did! The food was amazing as well as the service. I got the oxtail stew and my partner got the jerk chicken tacos and plantains and it was some of the best food I've had in a while. If you're in Tulsa, do yourself a favor and check them out! read more

Great atmosphere, great food! Jerk Chicken had a medium heat and great flavor. The samon pasta was recommended and was AMAZING

Amazing food. Owner/ chef is from DR and it shows. Had the Jerk Chicken and some the best flavor and spice I've ever had. Fried plantains on the side were heavenly. read more

Not vegan friendly may have a salad. Just finished the Veggie Burger. Patty was good, onions a little bit bulky for me, but nice taste. Not bad on price. Love the music. read more

The service at the restaurant was great, our waiter was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The food however was disappointing. The oxtail dish was more reminiscent of roast beef and it was visibly greasy. read more
