in Bode

If you like an intimate experience with good food, then you've found the right place. A reservation is recommended and very much encouraged (required). I decided to visit Bodean for my first time on what could be one of the busiest days of the year, Valentines Day. Keep in mind that this is also my anniversary to my wife of 8 years. Not only does the day alone mean a lot to my wife and I, but my father who passed back on Christmas 2022 wanted to take us to Bodean's to enjoy some of the best salmon he has had locally. Outside of the two major reasons of visiting, we were excited and love seafood. We had no issues with our reservation and were promptly seated. The place was dimly lit yet had lighting that focused directly on the table. White table cloth, quiet, and a fireplace with a fire flickering nearby. Our waitress promptly grated us with a smile. We simply ordered water's and no appetizers. After a short review of the menu, we knew exactly what we wanted. The wife went with the scallops while I went the sea bass. After a short wait, our entrees arrived. The food was not only prepared properly but looked like art on the plate. Freshness was the first thing you noticed, followed by the simple yet complex pairing of flavors. Scallops were seared with care placed in a light red plate of pureed strawberry sauce.

My husband and I dined here for our 37th wedding anniversary. It was absolutely wonderful. Every part of our evening was memorable! The service was fantastic. The food was incredible. It is a very romantic place. I've lived in Tulsa all of my life and had never been there. Believe me, we will be back! The lobster and shrimp bisque was so tasty. Lots of chunks of lobster and shrimp. I ordered the lobster tailS. Two huge tails! My husband had the sea bass. They brought a complimentary creme Brule for dessert. Everyone wished us a happy anniversary. 😊

This was our first time here, it was my mom's 80th. The food is excellent as expected, the service was equally amazing. I had no idea you could get Oysters this good in Tulsa - they were better than I've had in Houston, and rivaled ones you get on the East Coast as well. We had our 4yo with us, who was in a bit of a mood, but the waitress was patient and kind with him. At one point near the end of the meal, she asked what he wanted to be when he grew up, and out of nowhere he told her he wanted to be a Chef. I don't know if they do this often, or just because it was slow, but the executive chef came out and invited him to come back to help make dessert. All the chefs in the back were into it, or at least very polite, either way I couldn't tell the difference. It certainly made for good memories.
