41. El Rio Verde

As the recipient of multiple “Best Mexican Food” awards, El Rio Verde is no secret, if you’re looking for authentic Mexican food. Wildly popular with the lunch crowd coming from downtown Tulsa, you may find a short wait if you visit during peak hours, but it is well worth it.

42. Purple Glaze

Seeking a creative outlet? Don’t forget to check out Purple Glaze. At their Brookside or 91st St locations, you can pick from a multitude of unfinished ceramic goods, paint the design of your choice on them, then Purple Glaze will glaze and fire the item. Definitely a good option for a Saturday afternoon.



43. Sherwin Miller Museum of Jewish Art

Claiming the largest collection of Judaica in this part of the country, the Sherwin Miller Museum of Jewish Art is a treasure trove of interesting exhibits, but what sets this museum apart from others is its “dedication to the eradication of hate and to the promotion of understanding between the diverse cultures that make America great.” (from their website)

44. Boston Avenue Methodist Church

With all the great architecture in downtown Tulsa, it would simply be wrong to not acknowledge the beautiful churches in the southern half of downtown Tulsa. Boston Avenue Methodist Church is one of the most recognizable buildings in Tulsa, featuring a prominent tower that marvels the thousands of people that visit the church each year.
