“A near perfect Neapolitan style Pizza. Their classic Margherita is not always on the menu, but it's always available. The crust has the perfect balance of crunch and chewiness. The sauce is light with a touch of garlic and the cheese is amazing. You'd have to travel to New York to find one like this. We got the Margherita pizza and a specialty pizza. We also got the meatballs and stuffed oysters. Everything was delicious.”

“Small plates : Meatballs, WCShrimp, Pork Belly Sausage all worth a try. Really a lovely dining experience. Thank you to Jack and the kitchen staff.”

“In my opinion, this is the best restaurant in Hanover. The ambiance, homemade pizza and pasta, and thoughtfully crafted cocktails make it truly special. The pricing is surprisingly reasonable, and the cozy setting works just as well for a quiet seat at the bar as it does for gathering with friends.”

“OAK Artisan Cookary is a true gem! From the moment we walked in, the hostess greeted us with warmth and professionalism that set the tone for an exceptional experience. Our server, Carla, was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about making sure we had a great time. And the pizza? Absolutely phenomenal. Every bite was a perfect balance of fresh ingredients, artisan craftsmanship, and bold flavor. You can taste the care in every slice. Between the incredible food and top-tier service, OAK Artisan Cookary delivers a dining experience that’s hard to beat. Highly recommended for anyone who loves great pizza and even better hospitality!”

“So far the place is great, need to return and try other dishes before updating review! First time i visited it was pretty crowded (weekend) and i asked a few questions about a sizeable group being allowed in and kids, they have two high chairs for kids and anything over 8 people needs a reservation with anticipation (understandable). Be mindful of making reservations as they have cancelation policies in place for your group or part of not showing up with a hold of 25usd per person. Any group over six can not split checks and has an automatic 20% gratuity included. Now on to the food, it is a novel idea from what i have seen in hanover the taste is pretty similar to food i used to eat in new york city its great and savory the few things i tried i would suggest for the "snack" portions noted on their menu when sent out to the table maybe cutting them into smaller portions the roasted garlic focaccia was absolutely delicious but i would have preferred it to be cut into portions instead of one long piece. The house bread and butter we tried was also really good and portioned out just a little large on the sizes of the portions maybe cutting them up a little would help make it easier to share and eat and the table wouldn't have to cut it up. The marinated olives were rather accentuated on the olive oil i thought they would have been marinated in a mixture of olive oil and balsamic vinegar type but i should have asked before ordering them so im at fault there. Main dish we all tried pizzas and for the most part they did not disappoint at all (everyone has their own tastes) everyone at the table was happy with their own choices made on the pizza as we ordered different ones each and tried them all. To finish up dinner we tried their canoli... i was rather suspect of trying them as I'm uses to hand made nyc canoli and have always ended up disappointed, this time i was pleasantly surprised their canoli taste amazing!. The ambient and decor of the place is nice, relaxing and def a chill spot will return and try other dishes and update my review as i go great service i sadly was paying attention to my phone when our server introduced herself (sorry!). The smaller tables do seem to need a little tlc where we were sitting next fo the bar paint seems to be a little worse for the wear on the edges. But it is definitely a great place to take a nice date to impress, a little pricey but worth it”
