Oak and Ola

Super duper busy on Friday, Saturday, and Sundays. So many people come here to eat, drink, relax, and enjoy themselves with all that Armature Works has to offer.I started with $14 Brussels- very good, but not all timer. I'd say 7.5/10. Then, I had a Caesar salad. Very standard, but lots of great Caesar flavor. As an entree I had the $19 Oak & Ola burger. I liked it a lot. Would definitely come back for that. Service is very quick, but I sat at the bar.

Big fan of Oak & Ola! Located in Armature Works, it never disappoints. I've been here for both lunch and dinner, and it's always a fantastic experience. The outside patio is dog-friendly, which is a huge plus!Service is consistently great, and the food is even better. The vibe is top-notch and perfect for a casual meal or a special night out. Their craft cocktails are amazing, and you really can't go wrong with any of the dishes. Highly recommend!

My boyfriend and I love exploring new restaurants, and Oak and Ola had been on our radar due to its stellar reviews. After dining there, I can confidently say those reviews are spot-on--this place is a true gem.From the moment we walked in, the classy atmosphere and warm, welcoming staff set the tone for a fantastic evening. Johnny, our server during our first visit, was exceptional. He went above and beyond to explain the menu, making every dish sound irresistible. His recommendations, especially the specials, did not disappoint.The food and service were so outstanding that we returned the very next weekend. This time, Stephany was our server, and she was just as attentive and delightful, ensuring every detail was perfect.After dinner, we moved to the bar to explore their drink menu. Dale, the bartender, crafted a phenomenal espresso martini and guided us through their impressive bourbon selection. It was the perfect way to cap off an incredible dining experience.Oak and Ola has quickly become one of our favorite spots, and I highly recommend it for anyone seeking exceptional food, drinks, and service in an elegant setting.

This spot was FABULOUS! We were seated immediately-PLUS!!!! The vibe was definitely giving brunch. I tried something new and different and it was light and enjoyable. The mule didn't come in a copper mug, but was delicious. The big win-those brussel sprouts!! OMG! I'd go back just for those and a cocktail! GREAT TIME!!

In the trendy Armature Works. Not quite as trendy patrons as Predalina but still trendy. Got there early and the bar was quite full so had drinks at the rooftop bar at the restaurant upstairs. A lot of people waiting for their table so hopefully you don't get a table near the front desk. They have a creative cocktail list with a name of a famous chef beside it, I presume it is a take on the drink at their restaurant. I got the Marlowe's Spritz (Dominique Crenn) with lavender and rosemary vodka, pomegranate and cranberry shrub, lemon and Prosecco. Tasty and refreshing.Started with the octopus and Margherita pizza which were both very good. Would skip the garlic shrimp. Had the gulf fish almandine which was excellent; I usually don't like almandine but this version was light but still tasty. The special was rack of lamb with scallops which was the best of the bunch. The basque cheesecake was quite lovely. Oak and Ola is loud and boisterous and fun

We made Reservations for NYE and was told there was a Limited menu. This is a nice location with excellent wait staff. The cocktails were wonderful and all 5 of us enjoyed our meals. My daughter and I both enjoyed the salmon. And the guys all said their steaks and pasta entrees were good. Recommend for a nice romantic meal atmosphere.

Talk about a great experience! The restaurant is very open, with variety of great seating options. I would highly recommend a reservation as it was incredibly busy.Started with some delicious cocktails. They were well balanced and delicious. Kevin did a great job with recommendations and suggestions. Appetizers included the gulf shrimp, brussels sprouts and the beet crab salad. The brussels sprouts were bathed in a sauce that was to die for.Loved everything except the beet and crab salad, lacked in seasoning and was looking for more of a conventional salad when it came to the greens.For dinner we had the special, a delicious white fish with risotto cooked to perfection. The steak was also incredibly flavorful. Unfortunately we did not have room in our bellies for dessert but I'm sure it would have been delicious as the selections were exceptional. The service was impeccable and each food runner went into a detailed description of what was dropped at our table each time food was delivered. Prices were very reasonable considering the amount of food we got as well as two drinks all ended up being under $85. 10/10 experience and I will certainly be back!

Decided to stop by Oak and Ola for the first time in a couple years. This was my first time trying the lunch menu and it was a great experience! Service wise our server and supporting staff were great, very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu and gave good reccos. The service was a bit slow but the quality of our food was great and we were given a glass of Prosecco on the house for our wait. We also got cocktails which I can't remember the names of and are not pictured, but both were great! For our meal, I started off with the French onion soup, which wasn't life changing but a good, tasty soup nonetheless. For entree, I got the BLT with fries and my husband got the fried chicken sandwhich with their take on a Caesar salad. My sandwhich was great, toasty, buttery bread and lots of bacon. The aioli that comes with the fries is amaze! Also, the Caesar salad was very good, it was a bit spicy and had pistachios, very different but super yummy. Our server convinced me to get dessert and I was happy I did!! The toffee cake was decadent but light, not too dense, not too sweet. A great end to our meal! Overall, I'm glad we stopped by and will definitely be back.

The ambiance here is lovely. The sofas were lovely and a nice touch all throughout the restaurant. We had the gulf shrimp as an appetizer and it was very good. The shrimp was cooked to perfection and very flavorful. For the entree we had the chicken Marsala and it was soooo good. The chicken was juicy but not the slimy nasty juicy lol. The sauce and polenta were also really good. I highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Very good, but not a very adventurous menu. While everything we had was delicious, it all felt a bit "safe." I worry that such a tame menu will be the downfall for this restaurant.Our server was Marcus, who was efficient, courteous and professional. I had the chicken marsala and my wife had the salmon. Again, both were very good - but neither were "great."Being the sister restaurant of one of our favorite places, (On Swann in Hyde Park), I sincerely hope they can break the mundanity.
