Great place. I had the spicy roll combo and tuna sashimi. The sashimi was firm, fresh, and flavorful. The atmosphere was fun and lively which might be difficult if you are on a date and want to be able to converse.
Though the food was delicious, we felt the presentation lacked creativity. Again, everything tasted wonderful though. It's rather expensive, so we won't be regulars, but it was nice for a special occasion.

The Peoria location has really good service. It is one of my top three favorite restaurants in Tulsa. The Lomi salad and Some Like it Hot are the best!

It's good, but pricey. Food quality 4/5 stars (for the Tulsa area)
Service 3/5 stars
Atmosphere 4/5 stars
Price 2/5 stars (It is expensive when compared to some other locations, although the quality difference may prompt you to choose here instead)
Selection of sushi options 4/5 stars
Typical experience when eating here, typically 3/5 stars

I do think it is a pretty good option for Sushi in Tulsa. They have a decent variety of sushi among other items. It will do the trick if you need a sushi fix.

We really like the Volcano Roll and enjoy sitting outside at night. It is a bit overpriced, but after going to Sushi Alley where everything cost 30% more and was pitifully small/inadequate, it seems like a deal.

Loved it. Decided to try this place out while in town over Christmas, was not disappointed.

The Good:
The atmosphere. This place has a cool, urban/college vibe to it. Very fun.
The service. Friendly and relatively quick for how crowded it was.
The food! The sushi was so so good. I got the spider roll and another, I think it was called the OMG? They were both delicious, with tons of flavor. My boyfriend got 3 other ones, don't recall which, but he was very pleased. We also split a small bottle of sake, which was a first for both of us, and it was very good.

The Bad:
The size. It's a pretty small place once you get in, and it gets crowded to the point that it's hard to get out of your chair. We were sitting at the bar and people,employees mostly, had to keep trying to squeeze between our chairs and the tables behind us.
The hours. I don't know if it was because of the time of year, but we had gone up here for lunch (around 1 I think). There were people eating and the hostess greeted us with "we're closed, you can come back at 5".

The Ugly:
The price. My god! Luckily we had a gift certificate or else this place would have bankrupted us. I think the bill was nearly $60 dollars!

I am addicted to the Dunwell roll and half ITR salad. The one on Brookside has much better scenery and atmosphere than the one on Sheridan.

Best sushi in Tulsa. Hands down the best sushi in this landlocked state. Pricey and worth it. My vegan best friend, 7-year-old son and I always find something delicious. If you don't like the menu, they will create a roll with whatever you desire. Waitstaff is always friendly. Only complaint is the noise when the restaurant is full.

Not bad. The thing is, I like this restaurant if someone else is paying. The sushi is way too expensive and If I go out for sushi I like to have a variety of rolls to choose from. The menu doesn't (or at least the last time I went there it didn't) have a lot of different options. The fish is fresh and the service is good but I would still recommend Fuji over In The Raw

Awesome! Period.. Best sushi in Tulsa. You must try the 6151 and the volcano rolls. Nice selection of sake. I particularly like the horin. If you are in the mood for something other than sushi, I highly recommend the cabo tacos or the filet mignon.

Good for Sushi. I'm not a big sushi fan, but my wife is, and this is the only sushi place in Tulsa I will go with her. The ID roll is our favorite.

Decent, OK, So-So. Not worth what you pay. You're definitely paying for the atomosphere here, and the atmospher alone.

The service is typically sub-par. Try the location on Sheridan if you would like your server to pay any attention to you. I've actually had good expereiences there.

If you're from a big city with a lot of great sushi choices with quality service, sushi, and drinks, you will be outraged at how little you get for your money at In The Raw.

Recommendations: Tako Salad, Carnival Roll, 6151
I like the food, not the restaurant....if that makes sense.

Great sushi party. Probably the best sushi in town. It's not just the flavor, but it's the creativity the chefs put into the creation of each roll. The 6151 by far my favorite, or the Id, Nirvana and Ginger (not on the menu). They mix excellent drinks whether you fancy a flirtini, skinny girl margarita, or good old fashioned dirty martini, it's gonna be good. Service is excellent! It you're in the mood to go clubbing or party, this is the place. First date or family night, not so much. Music and atmosphere is loud...depends on your mood. Still highly recommended.

Great. Excellent service and food.

Sooner Sara needs to get a grip. Charging a 20% gratuity for parties of 8 and more is pretty common in the industry. What hole has she been living in. I agree that hitting a group of 6 is a bit cheesy 8 or more has been standard practice inthe undustry since I was waiting tables in the 70's. Grow up.

YUM!. I ate here for the first time while in Tulsa recently and I loved it! The service was friendly and very quick and the sushi was delicious! I was very pleasantly surprised, as I didn't think that sushi in the midwest would be very fresh or appetizing. I ordered the salmon sashimi, which was perfect and had just gotten off the plane. I also had the best shrimp tempura roll I have ever eaten and a wonderful California roll. I am definitely going to come back to In The Raw!!

My husband and I love this place! I've lived in many metro cities and ITR is by far my favorite. If I ever had to move if would be at the top of my list for "Places I will miss". It almost warrants a trip back for the food!! Oh, the steak kicks @#%*!!!!!!!

Love ITR!. ITR is my favorite place to eat in T-Town! both locations are awesome! The ITR salad is awesome- large enough to split! The Volcano roll and Nirvana are amazing! To be honest there isn't anything on the menu that i don't like. Also for those who aren't crazy about the raw fish- the steak here is really good! Served with wasabi mashed potatoes and asparagus- so good!! One of the best steaks in town!

It was okay.. The waitstaff was okay. The sushi was okay. The atmosphere....okay. The rowdy table drinking lots of saki next to ours was rude. My favorite part of the meal was when one of the people at the table next to us, got up, ran outside, and vomited on the street right outside our window table. Classy.

Best in Tulsa. Coming from Florida, I was dying for fresh, delicious sushi. In the Raw is hands down the best sushi you can find in Tulsa. It is quite pricey (and maybe even overpriced), but well worth the splurge.

Nomad is committed to sourcing and using all-organic products whenever possible and the result is a delicious, succinct menu of about 12 pizzas and a handful of artfully done salads using ingredients from several local farms. The owners hint that small plates and apps may be offered in the near future along with a seasonal pie addition, so be on the lookout for a new pizza or two in the coming warmer months.

The sushi & Miso soup are Amazing! Drinks are very tasty as well! Servers here are always very kind & occasionally they have live music outside! Both outdoor & indoor seating! I’ve taken shots with the staff on a closing night (highly recommend the secret PJ shot), and my only complaint is sometimes it can be busy on a weekend & hard to get a seat, But regardless if they are busy or not; they will treat you right & serve you as quick as they can!

I’m giving this place a 4 star review because the sushi is overpriced for the lack of presentation. We waited around 30-45 min for basic sushi to come out. It was quite disappointing. But aside from that the calamari was delicious. I also enjoyed the atmosphere of this place. The wait staff was very accommodating. I’m not sure if I’ll return specifically because of the price for the product.

If you have ever had amazing sushi, this is by far one of the best places. Everything for everyone, whether you enjoy fish/eel/tempura or not. Awesome people, quick service. Even better food because let's face it, the food is the star of the show. If for some reason you don't like it I believe you might be crazy!

Services was a little slower than anticipated as they were not as busy at the time we went. I actually thought she forgot about us after bringing us drinks as it took about 10 minutes for her to come back and get our order. The food came out in a timely manner and was perfect! Overall a happy experience. Try the Volcano Roll! Perfection!

Howdy,howdy, Rusty here. IntheRawSus Hi. Hi y'all. My experience w this Sushi Shak, Occured before she got a facelift, in about 1965~~~~~...the matter of what was there flew away from my craniums. Question what was there, under, on, and above ground? 50s-60s. It's only my conjecture: But it's entirely possible that someone who helped build "Pennington's" took a leak there previously 💋🙏.
