The 18 Best Restaurants in Tulsa, Oklahoma | Eater

"A staple of the SoBo District, Dalesandro’s has been serving classic Italian dishes at the corner of 18th and Boston for nearly 20 years. The menu, which has remained largely unchanged over the years, features items mined from family recipes, including local faves like the swordfish piccata and lentil soup. Owner Sonny Dalesandro, who took the torch from his dad, Buzz, is forthright about the challenges of running a restaurant, but he keeps family (both born and forged) front and center, saying, “Dollars and cents are gladly and willingly substituted for making memories, friends, and creating comfort.”" - Jess Brent
