| - Not only does this place have great food but they've got some great servers and customer service as well.
We visited for the first time last year and came back the next day with our kids. This is a big deal considering it is almost an hour from our house. The food was THAT good. We really enjoy the menu items that a just a little different from every other restaurant. Duck fat popcorn, duck mac n'cheese, ribs...they're all delicious.
What made them stand out at our most recent visit was our excellent server and the grace he showed when faced with a bad situation. We took some time deciding what we wanted to drink and I finally decided on a fruity beer. Our server, Joey, came back and explained that the beer I ordered wasn't available. So, I ordered a different one, which was also sold out. My third choice was also gone...and Joey apologized and apologized and explained that the manager was offering us a free round of drinks for the inconvenience. Finally, my fourth choice was available (and worth the wait...Peche Lambic). All of our dinners were great and at the end of the meal, not only did we get the round of drinks free, but they also took 20% off our bill!
Through it all, Joey kept his sense of humor and was truly sorry for the bad turn of events. I'm complimenting the Oak Barrel not because they offered free drinks and the discount, but because they did the right thing.
We had a great time despite the drink issues. We will def be back.
