I chose oaks for an anniversary dinner with my girlfriend.
Staff/atmosphere:
With reservations made 2 weeks in advance and arriving 5 minutes early, the young hostess staff fumbled and scrambled to find us seats which ended up being to the left as you walk in. The view from our seats was horrible. Outside the window was an old porch, with two dirty chairs on it. The atmosphere inside the place was nice, in every room beside which we were sat in. The wait staff was generally pleasant.
Food:
Subpar. The classic relish tray had green olives that were seriously strong. The water glass on the table was not enough to wash the taste down. My steak, as well as my girlfriends was only okay. There was little to no seasoning on the steak, and cutting into my potato I found green, undercooked food food in front of me. The bread that they brought with the meal was the best part.
Overall:
For paying 80 dollars, I really expected more. Making reservations early, I had hoped to be placed in a better section of the building. Walking around after our meal, I found outstanding views of nature and the river below- which I wish I would have been able to see while eating. The food wasn't all that great. The service was only okay and the hostess staff seemed lost.
I will not return or recommend.
