We went to Burger Dynasty in Sapulpa the other day since we were craving burgers. We heard a lot of positive feedback so we decided to give it a try. The food and prices were very good and they definitely have some interesting and creative food items.
I would go give it a try for sure.

Layers of fresh mozzarella, ripe tomatoes, red onion, basil, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze come together to create our Caprese Tower. ✨

Simple ingredients. Big flavor.

Available now at the Mt. Royal Inn.

Bella Roma in Jenks.
To cut to the chase this was a one and done experience. We won't be back. I hardly ever criticize my dining experience to this degree.

We went last night on a Wednesday. When we walked in I had high hopes, it was cute and had a nice ambiance. So let's get to it.
1.We are at an Italian restaurant so I ask if they have any Italian beer. Waitress says, I don't know, let me check. Strike 1.
2. We are there early on a Wednesday and my wife orders the lamb. After waitress puts in order she comes back and says no lamb. Not good.
3. We ordered the garlic knots and those were decent.
4. We ordered the calamari and it was fine, just fine. Nothing special.
5. The veal my wife ordered was good.
6. I ordered a pizza and forgot to take a video of this mess. When it was put in front of me it looked great. I picked up a slice and half the toppings fell off. The bottom of the crust was wet and soggy.
7. We asked for Parmesan cheese and was given a shaker like Pizza Hut. Even Olive Garden comes over and shreds cheese for you. I had to laugh. Embarrassing.
8. We spoke to the manager and he said he would make a new one. In about 4minutes he brings a new pizza and said someone asked for a crispy pizza so he gave it to me. It looked burnt and tasted burned.

So after spending almost $120 on a few drinks, 2 apps and an entree we left and went somewhere for dinner.

Bird and Bottle - After hearing some positive feedback on this place I thought we would give it a try since we were in the neighborhood. As we walked in there was an active buzz and the bar was busy. I later learned that they have $4 martinis everyday and a very small happy hour menu which made sense why the bar was busy. Chelsey was our server and she was very good.
The place got busy as we were there. Honestly looking at the menu I had a hard time choosing something that peaked my interest.

We started off with the soft buns which was like a Vietnamese bun with meat. The "soft buns" were anything but soft and the filling was flavorless. These buns are typically very soft and steamed but have no flavor so you really have to have a flavorful filling which it did not. We did tell Chelsey that the buns were not good. My wife had the beet and goat cheese salad and could not finish it due to the amount of goat cheese making it way too heavy and rich. I had the peach and prosciutto flatbread and ate about 1/4 of it. It was boring, and dry and was missing something even though I couldn't put my finger on it.

Once again with a couple of cocktails, an order of soft buns, some glazed carrots, a salad, and a flat bread it was over $100. Even though we commented on the buns and didn't eat a lot of it, it was still on the bill. We don't plan on returning.

Forno Santo - so my wife and I went here for dinner the other night due to all the buzz. Before going into details and sharing pictures we will not be back. We basically spent $120 on 2 bowls of pasta, 3 drinks, and one appetizer. They don't even give you bread and butter, you have to pay for that as well. The menu is limited in my opinion and the only steak on the menu was $135. The ham and melon salad, my clam pasta and the bread we paid for was good. The carbonara pasta was very heavy on pepper and soaked in sauce, and the pasta was gummy. It was on the verge of being Carbonara soup.

George’s Pub in Jenks, Ok. Today we stopped in for an unexpected lunch. I know a lot of people who have been here and said it’s a friendly place with good pub food. Well I have to agree. Stacy was running the floor and the bar, she was super sweet and always had a big smile.
The picture does not do the quesadilla justice, it was hearty and full of flavor. The burger was great as well.

The pub has a friendly vibe with daily happy hour specials, appetizer specials and drink deals. There is an upstairs area with a pool table and a small outside patio that is pet friendly.

We had a great time.

The Bradford Grill was so good that we had to go back for the second time in 8 days. They are doing so well. We were there on opening day and they had a decent flow for mid-afternoon but I have been seeing lots of photos, great comments and today when we left there was a wait to get in. We had another great dinner with friendly and great service. They were so busy that the parking lot was full and people were parking at NY Bagel and Charleston's next door.

Yesterday we went to the new Bradford Grill on Yale. It was the official first day of business. The service was very good and so is the food. For those of you who are fans of Fish Daddy's the same owner has opened this restaurant. The menu prices are very fare and about half the cost of Charleston's next door. If you are tequila or bourbon lovers you will be very happy with the selection. You definitely need to go. Tell the managers Gary and Sam, and trainer Hunter that Chef Steve sent you. They are all great people.

Texas de Brazil - Well today we went for lunch and it was not good. Let’s start off with the pros. The pitcher of Brazilian lemonade was good, as well as the lobster bisque, salad bar and carrot cake. That was it. Now for the cons. The soup area was dirty and stayed dirty for the large duration of our stay with spilled soup on the counter. In the past they always served the mashed potatoes and plantain when the hot food was served. Well today it was served as we went up to the salad bar. So needless to say by the time we finished the soup and salad and had the meat course it was all cold. After we finished our salads we turned our red sign to green and we sat there for a while with dirty soup and salad plates in front of us as 4-5 employees just stood close by chatting (see photo). After a long wait finally someone came by with the meat. He asked me if I would like any and I said sure but I don’t have a plate to put it on, so he left. In the past once you flip your card over they remove your dirty salad plate and bring you a fresh one for the meat. A second person finally came by with meat and I said can I have a plate to put the meat on. Most of the beef today with the exception of the Picanha was very tough and chewy and inedible. Very disappointing for our Valentines Day meal and my wife’s birthday treat.
