"My husband and I went to Oak Thursday, March 8th for his birthday. I selected this restaurant because of the reviews and some word of mouth. I had no idea how far it would exceed my expectations. I actually stopped by a few hours before my reservations with a car full of balloons and pulled through to the valet and told him I had a reservation later but wanted to drop off the balloons now. The valet got the manager and he poked a little fun at me and took the balloons and said don’t worry we got it. Our reservation was at 7:15 we got there around 6:50p. The hostess gave me a wink and said go to the bar and we will get your table ready. The manager came by while we were at the bar to introduce himself and told us about the various cuts of meat and flavor. It was exciting because we generally eat vegetarian and vegan at home for health reasons but my husband loves steak and chicken. My husband asked if they had a chicken and steak combination he said no but he would figure something out. Oh Boy did he figure it out; red carpet style. They created a fried chicken appetizer just for him and I had the crab cake and the server added several things for us to try, each dish being more exquisite than the last. My husband had the bone-in filet, I had the 8oz filet both prepared medium rare yummmmm so good, just perfect. Service from the valet to the server was impeccable. Food and drinks were amazing. We came in as customers and left as friends. Thank you for making us feel like we were royalty."

"they save themselves some time and money for something much better elsewhere. eating was the only reason to really give all stars. we decided to go after the parking lot on the road and regret it. we were shown the bar after telling the empty-looking restaurant and the terrace was fully dedicated for the evening. we were immediately greeted and served by rafael and he was great, but a part of the way through our meal, he disappeared and our experience went down hills from there. we asked for wein and were promptly pointed out to steve, which seemed unrequired and gave minimal description of a $30 glass cabernet bottle msrp is $45) then we had to say to the bartender again. she struggled to use a coravin and gave up and tried the bottle with the foil still on!!!! that led to pieces of cork in our pathetic excuses for a glass of wine. we have paid $30 for 3-4 ounces of medium cabernet with cork. the skallop was a well composed plate. the charred avocado lacked salt and seemed to make me little sense. the hanger steak was good, but a bit on the smaller side. the hot it was also very tasteful and interesting, but also have used a hauch of finishing salt. then we made the mistake of ordering two espresso martinis in creamy style and a classic, they were both terrible. I don't know what the specifications of the barkeeper used, but that wasn't the worst espresso martini ive had. I know that it is hard to find good help, but also basic things like not wearing them apron they eat and drink in, on the bathroom, these young don't understand. I have been in the service industry for 17 years from casual to michelin star restaurants and I hate to leave a bad review. this place could be so good and I wanted it to be. unfortunately we left unhappy, unhindered and after $300 for two guests unsatisfied and will not be back soon."
