Oklahoma is fortunate enough to offer many tasty dishes that rival world-class cuisine. We might be famous for our chicken fried steak and bbq, but we also have some of the world’s best chili tucked away in a humble little restaurant in Tulsa. They’ve been in business since 1908 which is a testament to their delicious, homemade chili recipe that has stayed the same since the beginning.

Keep reading below for all the details:

Ike’s Chili opened in 1908 on 2nd and Boston in Tulsa. They’ve moved locations a few times over the years before settling into their current location at 1503 East 11th Street.

Ike’s is the kind of place where everybody knows everybody. And you know it’s good chili when they haven’t changed their recipe in over a century.

They humbly say they have the best chili in the city, but we beg to differ. Stop in and taste a bowl and you’ll see why we say they have the best chili in the world.

The menu offers six types of chili including the original beef recipe and a chili mac n cheese.

And you can add chili to any of the regular menu items. Want some chili fries? No problem, just add a side of chili on top and you’ll be in heaven.
