I do not consider myself a food critic, except insofar as I will pass along a good word now and then about cuisine I have enjoyed and the places it can be found. The last time my husband and I were in Broken Arrow, OK we ate at Main Street Tavern . We love to support local businesses wherever we go, because we appreciate the entrepeneurial spirit and imagination. Besides, locally owned places just have more personality. It's just a great way to experience the people and culture of the area.
My hubs had just rolled into town and was needing a late dinner and a few minutes to unwind after a near miss at being involved in a 15 car pile-up on the highway. He found MST on Urban Spoon, and it was a great choice. The service was excellent, the food delicious. The atmosphere was clean and modern, yet inviting and unpretentious.
They serve locally raised beef (from Tulsa), so my husband's selection of the Meatloaf Sliders was spot on. They were delicious! (I might have had a bite or five.) We washed them down with the Made in Oklahoma beer flights, which were also quite tasty. The DNR, which--true to it's name--is 11% alcohol, was our favorite. (Go figure.) I had a slice of chocolate cake. (I had eaten dinner earlier; don't judge!) I have to admit it was so-so, but MST is quite obviously not a place that considers their desserts a specialty. It's their Oklahoma brews and locally raised beef that makes them stand out.
If you ever find yourself in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, USA, stop by Main Street Tavern. It's a fun place to have a beer and catch up with friends. Here is a link to their Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/MainStreetTavernBA
