The Black Oak

It's been way too long since our last visit!Stopped in Wednesday afternoon for some food and beverage. Had the Fish Tacos and Buffalo Shrimp. Missed Taco Tuesday's special :-(The fish was fried perfectly, slaw was crisp and fresh with a hint of a bite. Buffalo Shrimp had the right amount of heat. Went with the blue cheese sauce (ranch also an option). Very tasty with some nice chunks of blue cheese ;-)The place is charming, inviting and super clean. Staff is engaging and the Top Shelf Long Island tastes exquisite (YUM)Had some great conversation, met some great folks and enjoyed everything!

Always a great place to hang out with good food to watch a game. And Dana is the best!!

Have been driving by here so we decided to check it out tonight just for drinks. Comfortable environment and good drinks. Next time we'll eat.

This place is a solid 3.5. Stopped by here on a whim. My grandmother wanted Pancakes and sausage from McDonalds. I didn't know where a McDonald's was and it was close to 10am. I drove by this place with big signs indicating they make breakfast,lunch and dinner. One huge u-turn later and I was in the parking lot. Parking lot btw is no bueno. So many huge potholes. On to bar. Very nice space inside. Decorated nice. Open kitchen Concept which is a good thing. I sat at the bar. Only person sitting at the bar. Bartender was slammed and it showed. I was able to get in and out within 15 - 20 minutes so not horrible (considering it was mother's day). Half way through I had to remind Bartender that my order was to go. Food was fresh, hot, & reasonably priced. I would eat again. But for them being too busy and bartender being disoriented I would of give them a 4. Quality and Price is a 4.

Good drinks BlackBerry margarita, strawberry margarita, and Caipirinha. The buffalo shrimp were large and delicious with the bleu cheese. The chilli had a kick but was decent. The cod and fries was good but maybe the grease needed changing because the fish was a little dark but overall pretty tasty. The steak sandwich was reported as very tasty. Sweet potato fries were good. My partner had grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, and asparagus which she enjoyed. The service was nice as our waitress provided suggestions and was prompt. The ambiance is a classic bar eatery but nicer. I loved all of the affirmations in the restroom.

Updating my review: We came here yesterday for brunch, and nearly all of the tables were occupied. That's a pretty good sign that they're doing something right. We each ordered a bottomless mimosa which they serve you in a stemless champagne flute, they cap you at 2 hours, and you can definitely taste the alcohol -- they're not like other places where you get more juice than actual alcohol. I did the steak and eggs, and my partner did the pancakes. Since we arrived at noon, we were given the option for both brunch and lunch menu. So, we decided to do the hangover -- comes with a pizza puff, French fries and cheese curds. We also did an order of nachos with sour cream and guacamole. We had a fun time, and we'll definitely be back for brunch more often.

Stopped in here with a group of 8 on a Wednesday afternoon. We called ahead to warn them. Bartender doubled as waitress and she busted her butt to serve us. Mixed drinks were strong and tasty. Beer was cold. Food was decent enough to warrant more visits in the future. I ordered the daily special patty melt with tots. Medium rare, which the cooks got just right. Props! Next time I'm in the area I will be sure to stop by. A solid neighborhood type place.

We ordered a bunch of shareable menu items and have to say we were definitely satisfied with all our orders. Hangover fries are a great concept, pizza puff threw me off from being on that list, but in the end it is a good choice. We tried the mixed wings and the flavoring on these was amazing paired with a nice crunch to the wings. Steak tacos were another great menu item, nicely presented with adequate portions. Mac N Cheese with Brisket was so flavorful and had just the right amount of creaminess. The drinks we ordered were also delicious from the Blue Lemonade to their Moscow Mule. Great service, awesome staff, we're definitely coming back to this place to check out their brunch specials.

Great food, friendly service and flowing drinks. Perfect place to stop with friends or to enjoy the game.
