“The waiter we had was exceptional. Very well versed with the menu and explained specials and his favorites which I always appreciate. He was very attentive as well. The food. Where do I begin? Just wow, the flavors were great!! We went with a big party and everything was tasty and service was awesome. Would definitely recommend!”
“It has been a while since I have been really blown away by a restaurant, and The Oak really delivered on food, atmosphere, and service. Our waitress Sally, was so much fun and very knowledgeable about the bourbon and menu. I am already addicted to their cheese fries and mac and cheese it was so delicious! It has an upscale hole in the wall feel very welcoming and such a cool bar! Everything is locally sourced, I will recommend this place to everyone I know. It is pricey but well worth it.”
“I was in the area and was looking for a place with good bourbon and food and came across The Oak and loved it so much I went back again during my trip. It is a very cozy and inviting space that advertises itself as a scratch kitchen. Sat at the bar and quickly observed that they have a very vast, extensive, and solid bourbon & whiskey collection on their shelves. Got an old-fashioned made with their own in-house bitters that you can choose from which was good and ultimately treated myself to a pour of Weller 12. Justin was friendly and wicked knowledgeable about bourbons which resulted in an awesome conversation during dinner. From a food perspective it was very fresh and delicious. Started with the Heritage Farms Pork Belly which was rendered beautifully and melted in my mouth without being overly oily that comes with pork belly some times. The entire app paired with the fresh greens, and the bourbon gastrique drizzled on top was well balanced in flavor. For the entree, I went with the Sesame crusted Seared Tuna which was cooked perfectly and paired very well with the bok choy, and wasabi crema. Maybe it is because I was not familiar with the area or it was around dinner time but parking at the strip was hard to find as the lot was very full and the restaurant was tucked away between two buildings and had to rely on Maps to make sure I was in the right place after parking. Overall, strongly recommend this place if you are into bourbon/whiskeys and want good food while you are drinking.”
“The service was top notch. Our server was knowledgeable, kind, and passionate. I had the bourbon sliders but substituted chicken for the beef. The flavor was singing, it was so right, but the chicken was chewy and dry. We also had the sprouts and they were great. It's a beautiful restaurant with terrific flavors and an excellent staff. I'd try them again”
“Cool spot. Good food. Great service. I had a flight of bourbon that was really good, and they give you a back story for each one, which was a really cool touch. I had the risotto with Mahi Mahi and a pistachio crunch that was pretty good. Nice flavor. Not overwhelming, but could have used a little something more. I came for lunch and was able to get right to a table, and had amazing service.”
