A new favorite! I have gone with my kids - 6 and 4; they ordered adult meals and loved it. If you are craving a decadent local sweet, get the Dutch baby... definitely stole all of the granola off the top from my son. I am in love with the warm salad - it is just the right amount of food and is savory and satisfying. Between friends and family, we have had the breakfast sandwich, croissants, biscuits, coconut chocolate chip cookies (please bring those back!!!), scrambled eggs, eggs Benedict, Dutch baby, warm salad, and cinnamon roll (sourdoughish - unique and delightful!). Everything was delicious except the biscuits - those where terrible; both kids and I tried and couldn’t eat them.
One of the wines there is expensive but worth the try for brunch - like a red mimosa. It’s Alloy’s Tin City: a red zin with coffee mix in a can (sounds weird but interesting and fun and tastes like it sounds). It has 6.5 mg. caffeine per ounce, compared to the 8 mg./oz. in a cup of coffee. (You can buy it at Grapes and Grain if you decide you like it.)
I’ve been here six times and can confidently say that it’s deserving of the 5-stars. The food is cared about, skillfully and unpretentiously prepared and presented, and the service is top notch - friendly and down to earth.
Perhaps most importantly, it’s consistent. Only once has there been a small miss, on the burger. I gave it a second try and it was phenomenal. The meat was incredibly well-seasoned. That leads me to believe my first experience was random, due to training, or otherwise not indicative of the standard.
Food culture, and maybe especially in Tulsa, often over-promises and under-delivers, especially at the standard $10-$15 price point. Across all of downtown, cherry street, and Brookside, Levain is the only restaurant at this tier that actually delivers true value.
If you’re tired of over-hyped and marginal eateries, Levain is an oasis.
Super fresh, high quality ingredients. Best brunch we've had in town, with outstanding service and atmosphere.
