Excellent experience overall! The food and cocktails were great (if you enjoy sour tastes, I can’t recommend the passion fruit Caipirinha enough) and the service exceptional. We experienced very little wait time and left both stuffed and very happy with our restaurant experience as first timers. Highly recommend.

Environment and food were exceptional. Unfortunately, although our waitress was friendly, I think she may have been overwhelmed and she didn’t check in enough and tended to disappear. Overall, the Oakmont is still a great Indy brunch spot that I recommend.

First time guests and will definitely be returning. We had an awesome experience! My husband and I came here for our anniversary dinner. Food and drink came a little slowly but otherwise we had a great time and our server was great. She was very sweet and personable and made us feel very welcomed. The food was fantastic. I finished my plate and that never happens for me! The drinks were also great. The value for your buck is definitely worth it.
