Small family restaurant serving dishes for Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia in a kitchen style.

When owner Jim Loggin opened Chicory and Chives as a country comfort-food diner, he began with just a few Cajun items. Over time, the aromas of buttery country goodness and Cajun spices soaked into the clothes of passersby, igniting cravings for the two-headed fare each time they donned their favorite passing-by sweaters. Comfort items such as fresh-ground, handmade burgers ($4.99–$8.59) and fried or blackened catfish ($8.49–$8.79) are popular palate pleasers, but the Cajun dishes are the diner's objet d'art. Today's Groupon will fill both of your stomachs and keep your wallet full with Cajun specialties like the shrimp or crawfish etouffee ($8.49), a rich medley of fresh seafood swathed in a buttery Cajun gravy served over rice with cheesy bread, a side salad, and seasonal vegetable. Chicory and Chives also offers hearty gumbo, soups, salads, po' boys, and wraps.

Callaloo's offers adventurous tongues a spicy taste of the Caribbean, especially the cuisines of Trinidad and Tobago. To start your meal with a kick, try the jerk-chicken roti melt($6.95), with jerk chicken and melted cheese, or the beef pattie ($5.95). Sandwich wraps, such as the chicken and avocado salsa roti wrap ($7.95), are a two-handed treat, stuffed heavy with mixed greens, tomatoes, red onions, grilled chicken, jump-up rice, and avocados. Curry goat roti ($10.51), curry goat ($12.50), and grilled jerk chicken ($10.50) round out the entree selections. Callaloo's also serves kiddie dishes and desserts.

Sheets of sunlight skate over an idyllic garden into the low-lit dining room of Warren Duck Club, the upscale-restaurant-in-residence at the DoubleTree Hotel Tulsa at Warren Place. Savory scents traipse across dark, wood-paneled walls, sating the olfactory senses of diners perusing breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus. Sumptuous salmon filets swim in fragrant lochs of basil butter sauce beside blackened beef tenderloin hand rubbed in executive chef Tony Perez's secret blackening spices and drenched with a decadent béarnaise, typifying the high-end cuisine's commitment to creative flavor combinations that don't involve soda and Pop Rocks.

Shiloh's Restaurant's homestyle fare is born of the love and dedication of several generations of restaurateurs. The Hermann and Rodgers families have more than 50 years' experience in the kitchen, and although they're retired, entrepreneurial pros Grandma Ethel and Great-Grandma Gladys still oversee the recipe book to ensure quality.

Following these thoroughly scrutinized instructions, chefs cook up a well-rounded menu of all-day country breakfasts, meaty sandwiches, and pan-fried country steak. At tables, Shiloh's signature housemade rolls are always on hand to sop up leftover homestyle gravy and goulash. And to ensure that no mouth is left unfed, chefs also serve up their piping-hot comfort food to offices, parties, and the hungry families of vacationing grandmothers.

The Boulder Grill's menu appeases appetites of all sizes with shareable small dishes, a roster of sandwiches, and ample entrees assembled from scratch. Start meals on a heroic note by freeing macadamia-stuffed dates from bacon clutches ($8) or witness chicken and andouille sausage forge an alliance atop a crispy dais with the Cajun barbecued flatbread pizza ($8). Sandwiches and burgers ($8–$10) arrive at tables flanked by an entourage of fries or a soup or salad sidekick. Alternatively, tongues can paint themselves red with the rojo sliced sirloin steak poised on sweet-corn tamale cakes ($14) or delve into a textural treasure chest free of inedible doubloons and bank statements with the potato-crusted salmon, which comes pan-seared and arrayed in mustard cream ($18).
