Ike’s Chili in Tulsa has been serving up warm bowls of chili for over 100 years with their same secret recipe they started with. Martha Stewart called it the best chili in the nation, and we couldn’t agree more. Take a look at this amazing chili house that happens to also be the oldest restaurant in the city.
Ike’s Chili is located along Route 66 at 1503 East 11th Street in Tulsa. They’ve moved locations several times over the last century and in 2014 they settled into their Route 66 location.

As Will Rogers put it, “It’s the best place to have a bowl of blessedness.” And Martha Stewart agreed when she said “It’s the best chili in the nation.”
