   I chose Oak Bistro to meet an important collegue. Online the reviews are of great food and great ambience and I wanted something a little more upscale than a diner. It would have been better to go to a diner. None of the food was bad, but it it had zero that was special about it and was surprsingly small in its portions. People seem to love it so you might too. But I can't see going back.

   I am in my early seventies and took my two sons , who are in their thirties, to this restaurant on a Saturday evening.It was much too noisy for my tastes (it was hard to hear each other).The food was good but not great!

   Not a great wine list, but other than that it was fine.

   The food was delicious. We had the short ribs croquettes, pear salad and scallops. The service was excellent. Highly recommend it!

   Went to dinner to celebrate a birthday and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. We started with the fried burrata shared plate as settled in, had a glass of wine and decided our next course. The plate quickly disappeared...the fig jam and apricot marmalade went perfectly with the fried cheese. for dinner we enjoyed the burger, gnocchi, french dip and the pappardelle. All were great...everyone cleaned their plate! We ended with the orange chocolate bread pudding which was terrific. Audrey our server was wonderful and quite informative as we navigated our way through the menu.

   This is an extremely well-run business... I was greeted by someone who was friendly and welcoming. The service was stellar the entire meal - timely, friendly, and helpful. The menu is beautiful - quality choices, all obviously prepared with much care and talent. My meal was delicious - shared the moules frites and then had a delicious wrap. This is truly a neighborhood gem run by really nice people. Highly recommended!!
