The Oaks Bar & Grill

I was recently invited to a mutual friends birthday party celebration here and enjoyed the bar much. Bartenders are on point and very nice. No complaints on the service. Ordered a variety of drinks including a French 75, vodka tonic and some food items that were considerably the same as most bar foods. The bar was spacious and enough to host a large party of over 75 people. Several tables and great golfing scenic views. We were lucky to catch some live music by Joe Rathburn who was amazing and made the evening so wonderful. Shout out to his great voice and amazing guitar playing skills. I'd definitely return to play some golf and enjoy a nice drink. Golf course itself has room for improvements and would look more aesthetically pleasing if it was greener.

Ice place to stop and get a drink and appetizer for happy hour. Breakfast burritos are good. Lunchtime menu has a great selection. The staff all go the extra step to make sure everything is good.

Ate here with my wife last night (7/8), The Oaks Bar & Grill is located on Carlton Oaks golf course and the patio seating overlooks the course and putting green area. Loved the ambiance of the place right off.Service was very good the entire evening, our server was attentive and food came out quickly.Food was also pretty on point. I had the BLT sandwich that came with french fries and my wife had the Cobb salad. Both were tasty and the portion was plentiful for dinner.I was considering ordering an Old Fashioned but declined due to it being $14 (this was the same price as either one of our entrees!) The other cocktails on the menu are similarly pricey. My wife did have a glass of house merlot which she enjoyed.Some things to consider is that on Yelp their hours are listed as being open until 10pm which they are not. The restaurant is open until 8pm (kitchen closes at 7:45) and the bar is open until 9pm. While the house merlot my wife had was only $6 for the glass their cocktails are very pricey. I had a diet coke which was a reasonable $3.Overall, nice place. I'm considering taking up golf again so I will most likely return since it's right on the course.

The food was delicious! We loved walking around the outside area, it was very pretty. I loved our waitresses. Everytime we have been there it has been awesome!

As a large group of women who lunch we went to the Oaks Bar & Grill today. Yes we made reservations but our server seemed unaware. The business picked up and it was clear the bartender/server was overwhelmed. That happens often in restaurants nowadays. But what I must say is Brad "never" gave up or developed a bad attitude. So appreciated! The manager helped by taking our order. There were a few mishaps on orders but THANKS to Brad it all worked out well. We had time to socialize, have a toddy and we all left full. It was all and all a good luncheon. Hats off for all your efforts Brad!

We made it back to The Oaks Bar and Grill after quite and absence. We forgot what we'd been missing.We stopped in for a couple of drinks and a snack.Much to Becky's delight they had an Ashland seltzer on tap. For me, their selection of beers was quite good. I ordered a Firestone 805. At $5.50 each, we thought the pints were very reasonably priced. We ordered the potato skins and they were really good. They prepare regular sized skins and load them up with cheese, bacon and chives, then cut each lengthwise. It makes for much easier eating and Becky appreciated the smaller portion size. Served with sour cream, ranch and salsa, they hit the spot.Seph was our bartender and he provided great service for us. Attentive and friendly. Cool dude. The bar is a large horseshoe shape with plenty of seating. There are a few booths and tall tables too. There are plenty of TVs throughout the room to catch your favorite sporting event. Expect to see golf on at least a couple of them. LOL. The patio just outside the doors is outstanding with sweeping views of the golf course.Whether you're a hungry/thirsty golfer coming in from a round for a round or you're just stopping in for a snack like we did, the Oaks Bar and Grill is a solid choice.

It was ok. A bit loud. I ate there. I only tried one thing. It was my first time there. I had a hamburger & fries with something to drink. I was surprised that there were several kids there because of drinking but they serve food which is probably why.Service was good.

WOW! The food and service was great after our round! Great staff too, just like in the pro shop! Wasn't expecting that!

Most golf courses have functional places to eat. After all, golf is a four-to-five hour pursuit, so you're likely to get hungry before, during, and/or after your round. With some exceptions, it's usually built for the golfers in mind, and not-so-much for the general public, so I wouldn't bother to recommend a non-golfer to come to a golf course restaurant. But I'll definitely make an exception for Carlton Oaks' restaurant, The Oaks.The biggest plus of The Oaks is the setting. Overlooking the golf course, with trees and hills as a backdrop, the outdoor patio is one of the more pleasant settings for a meal in East County. The course is not kept in great shape, but this hardly affects the experience when you have a sandwich, rather than a sand wedge, in hand. To be honest, the food doesn't have to be terribly memorable for this to be a good experience, but it delivers exactly enough to make you think about returning.With a full bar and occasional live music, I would definitely venture off the beaten path or delay a post-round drive home to hang out on this pleasant patio with a cocktail in hand and a bite in the belly.

We've been coming to this place for years and it's always been good. However our last visit we met up with some friends at 4:00 on a Sunday and wanted to order some food. We sat on the outdoor patio and we were told there's no server out there anymore so we ordered at the bar. All of our food came out in to go containers and about 15 mins after we got our food the restaurant/bar closed and doors were locked. It was so strange because the hours on here reflect that they should've been open and I don't think they've ever closed that early on us before. We would have just went somewhere else if we had known. It was pretty uncomfortable and we didn't enjoy our food out of the to go containers and when we left we saw one employee who didn't say thank you or goodbye or anything. He just seemed really annoyed that we were there. Not sure what was going on that day but it was a huge disappointment. We paid so much for our food only to eat it out of take out containers and we were pretty unwelcomed by the staff. Don't think we will be back again.
