Barons on 1st is an homage to Tulsa's rich history and influences. We are an American restaurant and lounge where the spirit of legendary risk-takers and visionaries inspires Chef Justin Donaldson to serve bold, unique dishes not typically seen in fine dining.

Celebrate the influences that shaped Tulsa while enjoying elevated and eclectic cuisine, crafted cocktails in our stylish lounge, and an elegant ambience that melds tradition with modernity. Here, the legacy of the oil barons and their adventurous spirit lives on.

    Very nice experience overall, with two exceptions: Had the tomahawk ribeye, which was very well prepared but not a good piece of meat at all. The steak itself was half fat. And, yes, I know ribeyes are a fatty cut but this was way over the top fatty…literally, not figuratively, half fat. At $160 we expected better. Service was very good except the server forgot to give us the tomahawk steak bone that was set aside for us. All in all, a pleasurable experience somewhat marred by those two issues.

    Overall, great experience. Beautiful space inside. The presentation of the dishes are more elevated than most. Not our #1 steakhouse in town, but in the top 5. Prices are on par with other fine dining establishments. We do plan on coming back for the bar menu. It’s a bit more budget friendly.

    Great dinner and experience! Definitely one of the best filet’s I have ever had. The appetizer of oysters and shrimp cocktails were delicious also. Prices were worth it for the quality of food and service.

    My husband had the filet and I had the Cornish Hen. Both outstanding! Michael is one of the best waiters in Tulsa. He has waited on us at another restaurant and we were pleased that we had him again.
