Take 2: A Resonance Cafe - tomato soup w/grilled cheese - Sandwiches Near Me - Tulsa, Oklahoma

I saw a post on TikTok about this place so I wanted to give it a try! I just did a pickup order so I didn't experience much of the ambiance of the place. The workers were super friendly and helpful when I picked up my food though. It was actually super full inside the restaurant so I was thinking I made a good choice. I LOVE the purpose behind Take 2 of giving women jobs that have recently been incarcerated. And the sandwich I got was so yummy!!! I got the drip beef sandwich and lemme just say, I recommend !! I will definitely be back. read more

The famous drip beef is one of the great sandwiches of North America. Pretty much perfection

This place ALWAYS hits the spot!! I go here quite a bit because I'm obsessed with their famous beef drip. The meat is always seasoned just right and it's never dry it's so juicy half the time I forget to use the au jus gravy. The service is always fast and super friendly. I get greeted every time I enter and when I leave. They have plenty of tables to sit and the establishment is always very clean. read more

Loooooove!! My friend Jim and i go here occasionally during the week for lunch, it's a nice walking distance from my work. My absolute favorite is the tomato bisque, Jim likes the chicken poblano with a side salad. the restaurant is cute and well sized, the music is not overly obnoxious or loud. everyone here knows Jim well and is so kind to us, regardless if you're a regular or not that's the treatment you'll get. really recommend this place!! read more

Excellent service, warm and friendly vibe, and the best drip beef sandwich in town. Worth the trip downtown for lunch if you don't work there. read more

What a wonderful lunch! The drip beef is amazing, as was the turkey Reuben. The sweetest ladies work here and service is top notch! Will definitely be back! read more

Best damn prime rib sandwich I have ever had. Or as they call it, The Drip Sandwich. Owners are courteous and a pleasure to talk with. The only bad thing is I live hundreds of miles away. Thank you for a wonderful lunch! read more

Great concept, wonderful cause. Helping formerly incarcerated women out with employment is awesome. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I had the Korean pulled prime rib sliders, which was served with chips and a pickle. To be honest, the meat was tough and stringy..not my favorite sandwich, and a bit pricey at just under $11 without a drink. The flavors, however, were good and I was super hungry so I cleaned my plate. My associates had the prime rib sandwich and soup combo (I think they got Turkey chili) and they raved about the prime rib sandwiches. My sandwich was a 3/5, but as everyone raved about their's, I'll go 4 overall. This is definitely worth another visit, and next time we'll go with one of the prime rib options. read more

I had only been to Take 2 A few times before. Once was for a Yelp event. A coworker suggested it and I was excited because I remembered it being good. I also keep forgetting that they are right down the block from my work. And I really need to remember that because I think their mission is fantastic. There were five of us that went and we had fast service and got our food pretty quickly. I had the grilled cheese and tomato soup. The bread was nice and caramelized and there was a good ratio of cheese. The soup was okay but kind of bland. I would get it again but I'm interested in trying other dishes that they offer next time. Their curry chicken salad looked really good. I'm sure I will go here many times with my lunch group when I'm in the office. read more

I saw this place in a news story and I told myself that I have to check this place out and I'm sure glad I did. The staff were friendly and the service prompt. I had the beef dip sandwich and it was tender and delicious! The atmosphere was fun. Music just at the right level. I'm glad to help support the women who are working to better their lives! God bless. Will I be back? You betcha! read more

If you are on the fence about where to eat while you are downtown do yourself a favor and just head on over to Take 2. The drip beef sandwich is love at first bite and will have you immediately wanting to come back for more. read more

Often a go to place for lunch during office hours since it's conveniently within walking distance. Their soup and sandwiches are absolutely delicious! I haven't ordered anything I didn't enjoy. I recommend for a quick and simple lunch! read more

Amazing food and a beautiful cause. Portions are generous and quality is great. They also have fresh strawberry pie!

We visited this place for the first time today and it's a nice lunch experience. Everyone is very nice and the chef even tells me where to pay my for street parking. The interior of the restaurant is spacious and vibrant. The foods are good and fresh. We ordered the Riggs Abney Prime Rib Au Jus and split it for 2. And we upgraded our sides to a Tabouli. The meat portion is decent and the French bread is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. We really like the Tabouli, it's blended and seasoned better than a lot of the places in town. Definitely recommend you to give that a try. The chef takes the time to ask us about our food. We are just impressed with this place and it's mission. read more

Great place to eat lunch on Main Street hood dip sandwich's and baked potatoes! The potato salad was good too.

SUPER AWESOME SANDWICHES, SALADS, and SPUDS!! Even when the line is super long at lunch, they're so quick!! Call your order in to go for even faster service! I eat here at least twice a month for lunch. Everything on the menu is excellent. And the PIES!!!!! read more

"Take 2: A Resonance Café provides tasty meals and a positive, educational environment where women recently released from prison can learn valuable skills in restaurant management, food preparation, customer service and sales to help them secure future employment." Besides the amazing/admirable mission of Take 2, it was equally heartwarming to walk into the restaurant and see a line halfway across the restaurant filled with supportive Tulsans. It takes a bit to move through the line (maybe 15-20 minutes), so plan on a long lunch. I got the prime rib au jus with a side of potato salad and peanut butter cream pie. Everything was okay. Total for my lunch was $17. Wouldn't eat here often for that price, but it's not bad considering the program it's helping. read more

What a wonderful find on my walk in downtown Tulsa today! From the moment you step into the place, it's nothing but kindness and warmth from the entire staff. Not only was my sandwich exceptional (I had the French dip beef sandwich...seriously exceptional) they just know how to treat people here. I honestly cannot think of a better restaurant experience than the one I had here today. This is the kind of establishment you want to support. Just lovely all the way around. Excited to share this place with my coworkers on our next visit here. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu. read more

Excellent food with a great mission! I love the Prime Rib sandwich and the Drip Beef is great as well. My wife enjoyed the Grilled Cheese and Tomato Bisque--a great take on a classic pairing. read more

This place is amazing, they are giving people a second chance at life and the food is so good the table gets quiet (that's what I tell my family a quiet table means the food is great). read more

This is a little hidden gem with a great cause behind it. I literally think about their prime rib sandwich several times a week. Unfortunately I don't get enough time for lunch to get there, but I would eat that at least twice a week if I could The soups are also a favorite, and I love their BLT. They have a great variety on the menu, and the catering I have had from here has been excellent as well (they do boxed lunches but they also have special catering on request and that is some of the better catering I've had at events around town). The restaurant is run by the Resonance Center for Women, and helps women transition from incarceration to a stable environment. It's a win win for everyone. read more

This place has a great mission and great sandwiches. I've had both the sirloin au jus and the prime rib au jus - both were really good. The potato salad is good but seems a little bland and the potatoes tend to be undercooked. They put large chunks of pickles in the potato salad and I'm not a huge fan of that. That said, I come here for the sandwiches not the potato salad. It is a little pricey for lunch and I don't go here often but I am always satisfied when I do. read more

The drip beef sandwich was delicious! My husband had the curried chicken salad and really enjoyed it too.

My first time visiting, and the the whole experience was awesome! Super friendly man taking the order recommended the drip beef sandwich; thank you for that it was out of this world! I will definitely be back for the drip beef and to try other items. read more

I keep going back and telling myself that this time I'll try something else, but I just can't help it. The prime rib is SO GOOD and is a French dip dream. I haven't found a side I'm wild about, so I say skip it. Instead, save room for dessert. The pies are heaven on a plate, my favorite being the banana cream pie. What's better than the food? The mission. You might think this is just another deli in town, but what you don't know is that your food offers a second chance to formerly incarcerated women being reintegrated. I'll take seconds of that! read more

This place is incredibly. I don't just say this about the food but I say it because of it's purpose. The restaurant gives a second chance to women coming out of incarceration and helps them get back on their feet while involving them with their community and teaching them responsibility. I am thankful for this program. The food is good all american delicious! If anyone is familiar with Impression Restaurant, and old Tulsa classic, then you'll recognize it because it's the same menu! Tom Butcher from Impressions is being the line at Take 2, taking orders and cutting prime rib! I suggest the super spub, caesar salad and a slice of cheesecake! sooo good! read more

Woah, this is a gem in downtown! Thousands of people work within walking distance of this place and few probably know about it. It has a great mission. Women who have prior criminal histories can work here and gain experience and skills. (It's typically difficult for felons to get jobs.) And, they make excellent sandwiches. The best strategy is to pick something exotic off of the menu. The sandwiches have some fun twists - the last one I had was flavorful and on fluffy bread. It paired nicely with chips! The dining area is great - you'll see lots of people dining from the BOK Tower, Williams Center, and the buildings on Boston. This is a great place to bring your work gang for a quick or leisurely lunch break. Check out this wonderful restaurant with great flavors and a better mission. read more

I absolutely love Take 2! The food is quite fresh, and there salad bar is an easy go-to for me when I want to get away from my desk. This place is affordable and the employees are so friendly. I love the idea of supporting a business that serves a purpose and also has fantastic food. Oh, and you must try their homemade peanut butter pie! If you plan on going during the lunch rush hour, be prepared to wait in line. But it will be worth it! :) read more

Great soups and sandwiches! Reubens were thick and juicy on marbled rye, beef soup hearty and thick, tomato basil soup nice flavor. Great lunch with a place that has an amazing mission! read more

Great lunch! I went with the sirloin au jus on French bread even though the prime rib gets all the rave and I can strongly recommend it. Nice cut of thin sliced steak and good French bread. My first time and didn't realize you have to ask for cheese so my bad. A slice of provolone would have been perfect in my humble opinion. Got the French onion soup as a side. Fresh and good. Had to try a slice of the banana pie for desert...very good! Service was very friendly and I love their mission! Always nice to feel good about the place where you are dining and that they are making a difference while enjoying their food! read more

Take 2's mission statement is: Take 2: A Resonance Café provides tasty meals and a positive, educational environment where women recently released from prison can learn valuable skills in restaurant management, food preparation, customer service and sales to help them secure future employment. Additionally, the women live in housing adjacent to the restaurant with additional resources to help them succeed and keep them away from negative influences. The goal is to help these women change for good by giving them the skills and confidence to secure a job and find a fulfilling life outside prison walls. As patrons of the restaurant, you aren't just purchasing food, you are purchasing a better future for someone's mom, wife, daughter, sister or granddaughter. It's the simplest way you can help us make a difference and break the cycle that women releasing from prison often find themselves: no money, no support, no job, which leads them back to negative influences, negative environments and negative consequences. Please support Take 2. Because everyone deserves a second chance. Let me tell ya, they are doing good things. Today I had the prime rib sandwich with a side of shrimp macaroni salad. Lemme tell ya...dee....lish...ush!! Succulent prime rib cooked to a perfect medium rare on a french roll....GOOD LORT! As much as I liked it, I wish it'd had a slice of Swiss cheese, but delicious nonetheless. The shrimp macaronis salad was a bit under dressed for my taste, and needed just a pinch more of salt, but DANG it was good. The options are plentiful, and tasty. It's a bit pricey for a lunch spot, but since they're turning lives around, it's hard for me to complain. read more

What a great place! We took a group of 5 into this place at lunchtime during the week. There was a pretty good crowd in the restaurant, but the wait was nothing. I have lots of food allergies and these ladies made sure to take care of me. My friend had the meatloaf sandwich and she loved it. It looked delish! This is a place everyone needs to support. All of the staff was super friendly and helpful! Go now! read more
