Molly’s Landing

My husband and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary here. It was such a romantic setting. We were seated by the fireplace and had the best dinner we’ve ever had around here. Couldn’t have asked for a better night!!!

This place is fantastic! The décor is wild and defies description. Beautiful natural landscape surrounding the restuarant. Cocktails and great steak – a night of adventure!

Went there Friday night for a special diner with my son and was grossly disappointed. I ordered the shish-​ka-​bob. I wasn’t asked how I wanted the meat cooked so I got a well done skewer of meat. The vegetables had no seasoning and were only slightly cooked, so they were raw. My son ordered talapia that was so bad he wasn’t able to eat it. His date had an unseasoned plain broiled chicken breast. The food was grossly over priced. What was at one time was «rustic» has become old and dirty. Layers of dust were on everything inside and there was just a collection of junk lining the walls and hanging from the ceiling. The exterior walkway was a challenge as it was poorly lit, w/​uneven bricks and timbers, and there were many steps with no handrails. Again there was a collection of rusty stuff lining the walkway. Cannot recommend this place at all. Don’t go there!

Got engaged here and always celebrate here. Food was perfect with great service. If you don’t like this place you just can’t afford it. Try outback.

Molly’s Landing has the most wonderful atmosphere! Everyone is so friendly, and the food is to die for! The gift shop has the most amazing unique gifts from all over! It’s a must place to go eat!

I have come here a few times during visits to my parents. My sis, for some reason, always wants to go to Molly’s, although I think she likes it more for the atmosphere and ambiance than for the food.
The ambiance is pretty cool; it’s an eclectic, dimly lit little restaurant in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma. The service is okay, but not great.
The food however is subpar, especially for what you end up paying. My parents always have some sort of coupon that they get in the mail, which must be how Molly’s stays in business, because I just don’t get it. Or maybe the meat options, like the steaks that I never order, are where Molly’s shines. Who knows?
Last time we were there, we ordered the cheese plate appetizer, which was a confusing mix of blocks of cheddar cheese and something else (I can’t remember). It was like they got one of those huge blocks of generic cheddar from Wal-​Mart, cut the whole thing into cubes, and served it. It was SO MUCH CHEESE.
My sis and I shared a shrimp plate, and the shrimp was pretty good, but not worth what we paid.
Everything usually comes with a baked potato (you can’t really go wrong there), a side salad that’s nothing special, and a bread plate for the table.
Overall, I can’t say anything terrible about the food. I mean, it’s an okay meal and you’ll leave full, I’m sure. But you definitely won’t be happy about the price you paid.

Hadn’t been there in twenty years and we live nearby. Attended a meeting there so it was paid for. It is a pricey place. But it was the best steak next to Damon’s steakhouse in Glendale California that I have ever had. It was the grilled rib eye. I ordered it medium. Had a nice amount of red in it still so glad I didn’t order medium rare so it came out the perfect way I love it to. It melted in my mouth. The baked potato was fabulous, skin was soft and tasty and they gave two little cups of butter so had plenty to put on. Whatever their ranch style type dressing that they used was fabulous and served on the side. Appetizers were neat delicious different breads and spreads and such. Loved every bite. Then before the meeting ended they brought us all our choice of either the cheesecake or the bread pudding. Huge piece of cheesecake but I have been searching for a good bread pudding and I could have made a meal on this one. Best I think that I have ever tasted and that is saying a lot because Pink House had a great bread pudding and JanaLynns’ down in Macalester. I asked the waiter about it and he said that they actually don’t offer that on their menu anymore. They made it as a special request just for our meeting. They need to get it back on their menu. So I am so sorry for the bad reviews that were given for this place. You wonder what was going on, on those nights to make them give a bad review. Maybe consistency is a problem with them. Kind of like Cracker Barrel only at Cracker Barrel their food is consistently good but their service isn’t. You never know how long you will wait at Cracker Barrel to receive your food. So I hope that Mollys reads all these reviews and determine what is going on. They should always be able to get that 5 stars. My night was so perfect that I just might have to save up enough money so I can come back again sometime.

Molly’s Landing appeared to have great reviews so we stopped in. Service was average and prices very expensive. We ordered Halibut and the portions were small and dry. The plate was $ 36 and we upgraded to include the mushroom side. I shared with my wife who is a light eater. We both left hungry. I tried to receive the free cobbler as advertised through Unilocal for checking in and was told no because we didn’t purchase two dinners. With two drinks and tip, the bill came to $ 70. Don’t waste your time go to the Hard Rock down the road.

Always excellent food! Service is exemplary! Best steaks and seafood (get some Brandy sauce for your steak! Yummmm!) and the house made breads are to die for!!! We always have our Christmas company dinners here. Whimsical décor.

In town on business and was recommended by hotel staff. Ordered the pork chop on waitress recommend and seafood sampler with salmon and halibut. When food arrived was not impressed with presentation or portion! At $ 30 a plate the salmon was only the size of the Lemon wedge. Pork was way undercooked to the point the center was raw and not even warm. Halibut was dry and salmon was so fishy could only stomach a bite. Claimed on menu it was fresh it I highly doubt that fish has not been in the freezer for no less than 6 months! Gave the waitresses our concerns and was told she would relay them to the cook. She returned with full check and did not offer a replacement or to further cook the pork! Worst dinning experience I have ever had. I would not recommend this place to anyone!

They have changed so much since my last visit. None of my old favorites were on the menu. Seems they are trying to be a more upscale steakhouse, but in the same hunting lodge set up.
I didn’t bother to even order. We just got up and left.
Such a disappointment.

We took my MIL here last night to surprise her for Mother’s Day (she’s always wanted to go). Husband and FIL said steaks were among the best they’d ever had, so that’s good.
My blackened chicken pasta was not blackened … grilled, maybe. Pretty bland. The pasta was way overdone bowtie-​ish pasta in a cream sauce with crunchy bits of onion and lots of garlic. It was ok. It was definitely NOT $ 26-​good, though (which is what it cost). I would say it was $ 12-​good (because leftovers!). I know this isn’t a pasta restaurant but if you’re going to offer pasta please don’t cook it four days ago and reheat it for me today.
I had a decent $ 5.50 glass of red wine.
The salad was better than most area salads. No iceberg lettuce! Praise the lettuce gods.
The house dressing (parmesan peppercorn) was pretty good (it is served on the side).
The bread was just ok. I wanted the butter to be better (butter snob, yup that’s me).
Dessert was the cheesecake and the chocolate spoonful thing. They were each ok, and not too pricey.
Please note the 3-​star rating is not a BAD rating! It is lower than most ratings here but that’s because I’m agreeing with the description assigned to it: «A-​OK.» For me, it was neither horrible nor amazing. It was A-​OK, and my dish was too expensive. The guys said their steaks were worth the price (one or twice a year).

Old style steakhouse with high quality meats. Great service with prompt and friendly attention. Be sure to use the $ 15 gift certificate from their website or the pictures on Unilocal

This place came higjly recommended by the people I’m working with out here. Good meal, excellent staff (Jordan was my server). Had the salmon and a great desert. Compared to back home the prices seemed a tad high but perhaps they’re normal for this area. Décor was nice and very unique. I was here during the evening but I’m told the view of the river is nice.

What wonderful ambience! Think log cabin chic.
I enjoyed the ‘Chef’s Special’ — a 4 oz. fillet in their famous brandy sauce. Definitely gives A-​1 a run for its money! The salad with home-​made ranch dressing was delicious. The peach cobbler for dessert was very good. Carrot cake would have been more to my liking — but they ran out! (So get here early.)
I ate at the bar — which is surrounded by tractor-​seat bar stools. Very fun.
Jared served me — and kept calling me ‘boss.’ Now that’s respect — I’ve been called worse!

Quirky steakhouse with a surprising liquor and wine list (much better than an average Oklahoma dining experience). Steak was accurately prepared which seems to be a lost art these days. Wait staff was warm and friendly. Helpful without hovering! I had the chefs choice and it was divine! It’s a bit of a drive from the metro area but if you are in the mood for something off the beaten path I highly recommend it!

So i have lived in tulsa all my life and have heard great things about Molly’s… What was I thinking… About waiting so long to eat here! Fried mushrooms were great (get if u have 3 ppl or more) bread and fresh garlic were a nice touch! Salad was good and not too over dressed. The wife got the fried shrimp and I the large filet. It was seasoned perfectly and melted in my mouth bite by bite! She said she would probably get a steak but the shrimp was good. I liked the au gratin potatoes a lot. Looking forward to going back

I visited Molly’s Landing for the first time almost 10 years ago, so I didn’t really remember much about it before this last visit. I remembered the chairs were kind of weird (tall backed wicker chairs when I went with my Grandma) and there was stuff hanging from the ceiling. Great thing about not remembering a visit from 10 years ago is that it was like visiting for the first time!
My husband and I decided to venture out to Molly’s Landing the Saturday after Valentine’s Day. I knew it would be busy so I called and tried to make a reservation. The lady that answered their phone sounded confused and said they didn’t take reservations. I told her their website said they did, to which she replied that it was only for groups of 8 or more. We decided we would go early in the evening to try and beat the crowds. We showed up at 5:30 and the parking lot was almost at capacity! They quoted 45 minutes for the wait, and took a phone number to text us when our table was ready. The text that came in to confirm our number had a link to a website where we could check how many groups were in front of us.
The hostess said we could grab a drink at the bar while we waited and gave us our ticket. My husband wanted an ‘Old Fashioned’ & the poor bartender had to go look up how to make one. He took our ticket to make a note of the drink, and kept it. We asked if we needed the ticket back and he said they would keep it for a tab, and that our waitress would come get it once we’re seated. The drink ended up being terrible. My husband was looking for the bathroom and walked past the bar to ask someone where it was. The same bartender who made the drink asked how it was, hubby said not good, so the bartender offered to replace it. Thinking that meant it was free, hubby ordered a rum & coke. When we got our ticket we had been charged for it, so I guess «replacing» a drink here doesn’t mean the same thing as it does at other places.
The waiting area inside was really small, as was the tiny/​narrow gift shop next to the waiting area, so we went outside to wait. 45 minutes went by, and no text. Hubby checked the website, and only 4 groups were ahead of us. Then 3, 2, 1. Finally it said it was our turn, but no text! Our 45 minute wait ended up being an hour and a half. When we finally got a text the hostess said to wait on the other side of the swinging saloon doors (Awesome!) and «she» would come get us when our table was ready. Not knowing who «she» was we just stood there. A woman with dark hair came around the corner and asked us if we needed something, to which we replied we had received a text. COME ON PEOPLE! Their system is kind of nuts for as busy as they were. She gathered up some silverware after verifying who we were & took us to our table.
Our table was tucked away in a small corner. It would have been perfect if we weren’t so close to other tables, but we did have a little bit more privacy than the other people in that section thanks to a small wall. Our table was made out of a giant tree stump, and our chairs were worn out office chairs. Looked like none of the chairs matched, and our table was one of the unique ones, so it was kitschy lol. The décor looked like a Branson restaurant got together with a thrift store; it was hilarious!
Our waitress came over after a few minutes and got our drink orders. The soda selection is limited, and I found out why — all of the sodas come in plastic bottles. They seemed pushy on the appetizers, but we knew the meals came with salads so we decided against getting one. Plus checking in to Molly’s Landing on Unilocal gets you a free Peach Cobbler! How can a place so tech savvy not take reservations on busy nights? Anyway, we ordered our meals and the waitress brought us some bread. The bread appeared to be different on everyone’s tables. Our waitress said the type of bread we received was ‘something different’ that the chef had never made before. It ended up being good, looked like they just put pumpernickel bread inside of a rosemary loaf. The bread came with butter and a roasted garlic bulb. Hubby got super excited about the roasted garlic. We received our salads (all of the dressings are homemade — yum!), then our meals about 10 minutes after our salad plates were cleared away. Hubby and I both ordered the ‘Seafood Sampler’, which comes with your choice of 2 types of fish and a baked potato or rice. I ordered the salmon and tilapia, and hubby ordered grilled shrimp and tilapia. Both of my fish selections came with their house-​made jalapeño spice mix. It was much spicier than I had anticipated, and Diet Coke is NOT the right drink to have with spicy food! My fish, although spicy, was cooked perfectly! My potato was a good size, & it came with butter, sour cream, bacon, cheese, and scallions in little plastic cups on the side. The free Peach Cobbler came with ice cream on top, and it was really good! I left so stuffed, it was ridiculous.

Tucked off the highway just north of the Blue Whale of Catoosa, Molly’s is a magically eccentric joint serving up oldschool steakhouse fine dining with a modern flare. The interior is loaded with kitschy décor that lands somewhere between Cracker Barrel and the Flaming Lips. (Ex: the collage of past presidents’ faces photoshopped on women’s bodies). They even sell jackelopes in the gift shop.
Anyway, the food: A basic and affordable wine list complements a rich menu that includes succulent steaks, quail and hearty seafood. We got the filet and the 1872 spicy ribeye. The filet was meltingly tender and great. The 1872, while not your conventional choice being actually seasoned, was delightfully peppery without being overpowering. Both came with baked potatoes and salads loaded with creamy housemade dressing. Can’t remember the last time I went to a steakhouse that still served potatoes and salads as part of the deal. Awesome.
Also be sure to read the staff bios in the back if the menu. Batty and charming.

Atmosphere was perfect, love the lighted bridge and the interior decorating. Our server was new and did fine. The steak was okay, too much pepper. A good steak shouldn’t need a lot of seasoning if any. The spinach au gratin was awesome, and the rye bread was great. The prices were crazy high, like waaaaaay high! For two people eating dinner I thought $ 50-​$ 60 would be about right, not $ 100 not including tip (and that’s just one glass of decent wine). Overall, a good experience but would only do once a year or two.
