Ruger's Grill Named Chamber Member of the Month

Chamber Pres. Marley Abell, left, presented the award for Chamber Member of the Month 

to Ruger's Grill. Accepting the award was Jordan Pace, son of owner, Tana Pace.

Ruger's Grill was named the Chamber Member of the Month Wednesday during the monthly membership meeting of the Sallisaw Chamber of Commerce.

Following a meal catered by Marias' Mexican Restaurant, Ruger's Grill was recognized by Chamber President Marley Abell.

Ruger's Grill, located at 118 E Cherokee, is owned by Tana Pace. It opened in August 2017 and is named for Pace’s firstborn grandchild. 

The company expanded in 2018 with the addition of Journey’s Banquet Room.

Pace is opening another business, Shadee Oak Wing Shack, on Wednesday, Sept. 4. Both business names are in honor of Pace’s second and third grandchild, respectively.

Pace, who was raised in Sallisaw, said “it’s a bit sentimental to me to be a part of a business” in the city, and she thanked the chamber and its efforts to help small-business owners.
