Oak & Ola

Sooo Oak & Ola is a repeat for me, and I’m definitely late on this review. I’ve been for both lunch and dinner, and each time the food has been fresh and tasty. I really like the interior decor and attention to detail. Our server was attentive and nice, which made the experience even better. What I ordered: Deviled Eggs: The fried capers set it off! Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwich: Fresh and filling

We hosted a birthday dinner here yesterday (Monday) for one of our dear friends, and it was such a wonderful experience! The atmosphere has a beautiful, relaxing vibe right along the Riverwalk the perfect setting for a special night out. The staff was incredibly welcoming and accommodating to our group of 20+ women, which is no small task. They even printed “Happy Birthday” on the menu, which was such a thoughtful touch and made the night feel extra special. I had the hanger steak and it was absolutely delicious. Several of my friends ordered the chicken and salmon, and everyone raved about their meals. We ended the night sharing the toffee cake for the birthday celebration and it was truly to die for! We often host events for large groups of women, and we were beyond impressed. We will definitely be back!

Loved the European feel of this place. The food was absolutely amazing and the service was superb. We had Johnny & Virginia and they were so attentive and explained the menu well. The food was out of this world, we got the ricotta meatball pizza, stuffed sole, linguine, and lobster ravioli. We’ll be back! Cheers!

Food, service, atmosphere all great! Food came out at a good pace and our waiter was very accommodating. I would definitely recommend the Whipped French Feta as a favorite; the pita chips had the perfect crunch and I loved the addition of pomegranate seeds. The basil pistou also paired well with the Taleggio Arancini. While the flavour of the Charred Brussel sprouts was great, I do wish they were a bit crispier. I would pass on the lamb and pita. Spanish Octopus was cooked well but the chorizo was a little cold and salty for my taste. Recommend the New England Sole as a unique dish.

I had the pleasure of dining at Oak & Ola and trying several of their dishes, including the Roasted Pepper and Eggplant Zacusca, the Margherita Pizza, Gulf Fish Amandine, the O&O burger, and the Chicken Milanese. What really stood out to me about the chicken Milanese was the sauce paired with the arugula absolutely perfect. The margherita pizza was delightful and savory, while the roasted pepper and eggplant had a very unique flavor; it was crunchy, bold, and pleasantly different. Someone else at our table ordered the O&O Burger and said it was very good the Gulf Fish was okay. On top of the amazing food, our server Carla was fantastic. She was attentive to all her tables, her recommendations were spot on, and her sweet, friendly personality truly elevated the entire dining experience.
