The service was pretty slow. Took a long time to order drinks, so long that my husband ended up just walking over to the bar to order them. We then waited a while again to order our food. The sea bass was great artichoke fettuccine was just okay. Overall not really worth the price point but not terrible. Staff was nice but just not on top of it.

This was our first time dining at Oak and we were very impressed. The food was delicious and the Buratta and Ahi Tacos were standouts. The patio offers a nice ocean view and the ambience is upscale and comfortable. Service was prompt, friendly and knowledgable. I'd recommend Oak and return again in the future.

Had a great experience for brunch. The music was a little louder than I'd like, but it was still very enjoyable. Enjoyed the Crabcake Benedict and the Chilaquiles. Bread Pudding was also really good. We are going to come back and try dinner on a different date. It does get a little breezy in the restaurant, so you may want to bring a light jacket if you get cold easily.

This was our first time dining here and it was very good. I had the pork chop, cooked perfectly and not dried out. My friend had the salmon and he said the same. You MUST have the corn. Not something I generally order at a restaurant but on a scale of 1-10, it was a 12. Our waiter had a great personality and good menu recommendations. The only downside is that it is VERY loud inside. We chose to dine outside so that we could have a conversation, which is fine while the weather is good. There is nothing acoustically to lower the sound level when the restaurant is full.

Great restaurant close to the ocean. Calamari was outstanding. The chopped salad and aji tacos were ok. The service was great given there was only one server working. We had to wait for the table even though we had a reservation and the greeting wasnt all that friendly. All and all we will be back.

We had a wonderful dinner with some of the best cocktails I have had. Our table loved the calamari and the meat on the steak tacos was so good. I ate the meat without the tortilla so I could enjoy the flavor of the meat. We had the donuts and ice cream for dessert and it was sooo wonderful. All the staff was friendly and jumping to our needs. I highly recommend the Oak.

Food was excellent. Noise level was high, but ambience was good. The restaurant does have a view of the ocean, but not directly (across the street and down the hill). Service was ok - waiter forgot my wine until dinner was over. But, he comped the wine, along with one of our desserts. So, all-in-all, no real harm done.

Clam chowder was my mvp it came with a tiny Tabasco ! Appetizers or meals, everything is great! Stop by to barhop or to enjoy the full night. Girls night or a date night with my husband, both vibes fit. The shrimp pasta was decadent. Lovely night out in Laguna.

I chose Oak as the restaurant to celebrate my mom’s 79th birthday. I contacted them ahead of time to request help making it a special birthday celebration for her. They did such a terrific job!! I was thrilled with how the evening turned out. The food was delicious, the vibe and ambience was great, the staff was fantastic. We had a great time.
