Thanks for the replies fellas. I plan on eating at several places. I've eaten at Rons and LotABurger before.
I ate at the 71st store, and the burger was ok, but nothing to write home about. The root beer, on the other hand, was spectacular.
Ron's is pretty good, although I've only eaten at the one in Glenpool, so I don't know if they're uniformly good.
I usually eat at Flo's in Catoosa once per week. Those are some dang fine burgers. They're my favorite in the Tulsa area.
Smitty's Garage's onion burger is also a dang fine burger, although they're kind of chintzy with their fries.
Fat Guys makes a decent burger, but they've undercooked their burgers the last few times I've eaten there. I don't mind my steaks being a bit undercooked, but I can't deal with undercooked ground beef. Plus, they're expensive; they run about twice the price of Whataburger, but they aren't twice as good, IMHO.
Five Guys makes pretty good burgers and fries, but they charge way too much for them.
Smashburger...
That’s the Ron’s Special
Ron’s - Best thing is the jalapeño chicken, burgers are OK
Linda-Mar - same comment as Ron’s
Freddie’s (not the custard place) - good burgers with fresh-cut fries
Oh dear lord don't go to Linda-Mars that is some nasty west side ghetto burger in a place that is dirtier than a backwoods gas station bathroom. Just don't.
As for Ron's after they sold out to every tom dick and harry to have them all over the place. They are okay not great not bad just okay. They have a few good items but its not anywhere close to best burger in Tulsa area. I remember one time sitting down with my FIL and wife at Ron's in sand springs. Girl taking our order asked how do you want your burger cooked. He said "Smashed flat and burnt like you always make them." I about fell out of the booth lmao.

I was eating at Hanks out on Admiral close to the traffic circle riding my Cushman motorscotter in 1963 when I was in High school for lunch. Only had about eight stools back then, the rest of us had to eat standing in between. Old hank passed away but son kept it going with a pretty good burger, still there.
LMAO at an admitted neckbeard calling out “west
Side ghetto burger”...
Try the Admiral location if you break out in hives when you cross the river.
