Oak Oven

Oak Oven in Harahan is like your Italian grandma's cooking--if she had a wood-fired oven and a black belt in pizza-making. Everything was excellent but......the pumpkin and crab bisque was a total game changer. Cozy vibes, top-tier carbs--wear stretchy pants and thank me later.

Food is always fresh here. The caesar salad was sooooo delicious. I cleaned the bowl, which was chilled! Love it!! I ordered the paneed veal with fettuccine and asparagus which was also fresh. Complimentary bread and dipping oil sealed the deal with a glass of malbec. Chefs kiss. Small but a clean space.....cool place to stop by for lunch or dinner.

Quick service and great food. Ambiance is nice but tables are kind of crammed in there. We got the calamari, the meat pizza and the veal parm. All very good. LOVE the bread they give you wish they gave more.

It's hard to write a bad review when you've had so many good experiences everytime before. This review is solely based on the service provided. We walked up and was greeted at the door by the manager. She asked if we were dining in and we said we would like to. She looked at her watch for about 3 seconds longer than she needed to. My brother realizing they were closing in 25 mins says that's ok, we can go somewhere else. She said No No yall come in. We knew what we wanted right away so we ordered immediately. We got a pizza, a small pasta dish and I ordered a salad. The waiter said we are out of romaine we only have arugula and spinach. I said that'll be fine, assuming the intent of the words used was perceived to be a substitution. The pizza comes out followed by the pasta dish. After he passed a few more times I stopped and asked if the salad was coming. he replied you said nevermind. I said no, I said that'll be fine. I had ordered a salad that was to have romaine bacon egg tomato and olives with a Parmigiano dressing. The salad that came out had spinach apples candied pecans raisins feta and a balsamic pepper jelly vinegarette. Needless to say we were highly disappointed in the service. The food except the salad was amazing as it always is. Hopefully the service can improve for next time. We felt rushed the entire time we were there. They tried bussing the table with food still on the plate.

Had to stop in again, because we had a craving. :)Just past lunch crowd again. Quiet. Hannah H. was our server, and she brought my soda and husband's glass of wine quickly.Went with the wonderful Salsiccia Pizza again, this time as an appetizer, and husband ordered the large fettucine with chicken this time. I stuck with the small spaghetti, since I had to have the yummy spicy pumpkin soup with crab. This time there was a LOT of crab, almost too much, if there is such a thing.The piece de resistance was the daily dessert special of an apple fritter topped with meringue and a side of cinnamon ice cream ($12). OH MY HANNAH! It was absolutely the most unique version of an apple fritter I have ever had, and if it's on the menu next time we visit, I'm eating dessert first.

Great spot for lunch! I recently had their spicy crab and pumpkin soup. It was warm and filling and flavorful. I also had the Margherita pizza. The flavors were amazing. Only thing I wish the pizza was a little crunchier because it was kind of floppy and hard to eat. But the flavors were all there, the sauce is really fresh.

Whenever we are in New Orleans we eat here. The food is wonderful, service is great, the ambiance is appealing, and the price is very reasonable. I highly recommend the pizza.

One of the best Italian restaurants around the city of New Orleans everything is made fresh the pasta the pizza dough daily everything is high-quality in a nice atmosphere.

Tried them because they understand celiac disease. My shrimp & crab with spicy red sauce was delicious! I also like that some of their entrees were available in two sizes. Ordering the smaller size left room for dessert! We will be back.

It was all great worth the price very nice place to eat make sure you try them The fish special was great service was great every dish I pitched was fantastic
