   Nice views from the restaurant. Our waitress greeted us quickly and got our drinks promptly but after the first drink she became less attentive as the restaurant got busier . Unfortunately we were seated under a very drafty vent that couldn’t be adjusted or closed and the only fix was to provide a shawl. This put a damper on the experience. Pretty good variety in menu choices. Oysters Rockefeller was great. Rissoto portion size was huge. Market fish was Redfish and was so so but the succotash it came with was hood.

   Restaurant too cold to enjoy dinner. Bolognese was great. Burger was too rare and burger bun soaked to the point where we ordered and extra bun to take home and reheat rare burger. Ended up throwing it away and going to bed hungry 😩

   This is a beautiful restaurant with lovely views & excellent service. We felt that our food wasn’t quite the 5 stars we expected, though. The Brussels sprouts side was over-cooked & the NY strip, whipped potatoes and mushrooms just lacked the wow factor. The lobster cannelloni appetizer was cooked in an individual cast-iron pan that interacted with the ingredients, turning the edges and some of the filling a very unappetizing gray color. It was delicious, but seeing gray ooze on your plate really can be a turn-off. However, I’d go back right now for their Oysters Rockefeller - they were fantastic. We really appreciated that the service was top notch, & we are pretty forgiving of most businesses right now as everyone is struggling with staffing issues. So we will give it another go this fall and see if the food can wow us.

   Went for lunch which was at an outdoor venue one floor below the steakhouse but one reserves as if eating at the steakhouse. The setting has terrific view of the mountains. Service is slow because of short staffing- there was only one server for 6 tables and she has to climb and descend a flight of stairs to get food and return soiled plates. The server herself did a good job under difficult circumstances. Food was above average and I would return.

    This was the second time we've had the Sunday Brunch, and both times the food and service have been excellent. The only caveat was they included a side of bacon on the bill which wasn't delivered (I didn't say anything to the waiter when he brought the food because I felt that there was more food on my plate than I needed). The manager took care of our bill and not only removed the bacon charge but also comped the cinnamon bun that we had. That was above and beyond.

    Other restaurants in Highlands are a strong competition for a old motel restaurant. They are trying hard to please. The wine list has no Great California wines. I will not go again and I live in on the plateau. This is a great place for people who don’t have a second home

    Oak steakhouse, located at Skyline Lodge in Highlands is a must-do. Exceptional service, outstanding filets, and sides. If you are a bread lover, the bread service- yum! Highly recommend dining at Oak Steakhouse.

    We were there for a 60th birthday celebration, and Shannon greeted us warmly, which set the tone for the evening. Shannon’s advice and guidance was superb. The Tomahawk Ribeye was cooked to perfection and the bacon mac and cheese is a must have. We certainly look forward to our next visit to the Oak Steakhouse at the Skyline Lodge. What a treat!

    Was first seated, our table was between 2 different tables of screaming infants and toddlers, even though we had asked for a quiet table. When we asked to be move to a different table, one receptionist was very rude, while the other person was very nice and happy to move us. After the move to the mezzanine,,, EVERYTHING WAS GREAT!

    This was our nice dinner out on our 30th anniversary trip. We had mentioned this in our reservation & asked for seating outdoors with a view of the mountains, but the hostess seated us at a table with the wall of the building as our view. We were the first party to be seated on the patio, and there were several other tables with beautiful views. There was a rainstorm (obviously out of their control), so we moved indoors. She then seated us at a table crowded between a wall and a very loud party with an upset baby who had also eaten there the night prior. There were at least seven other empty tables for two in the room. Our server Cody was AMAZING - the bright spot in our whole experience. He had read our reservation, and he knew our names and that it was an anniversary dinner. He saw our distress and moved us upstairs so we could hear each other, which meant he had to climb two flights of stairs to service us. He was attentive and helpful, and we greatly appreciate what he did to help salvage our evening. The fries were great and the dessert was delicious.

    Our first visit. A local friend suggested this restaurant for dinner. Wine list was adequate as was the menu and the service. Very little flair and clientele dressed too casually. It’s away from the town with equal or better options on Main Street.

    My Son and I stayed at the Skyline Lodge and wanted to maximize our time and stay there. No need to go into Highlands as everything you need is at the Lodge. Oak Steakhouse fit the bill perfectly for dinner. Amazing atmosphere and feel to the whole place in my opinion. Our Waiter Kevin was spot on with his service and super friendly and helpful. Food was excellent and we will definitely return in the future. Also of note was Butler's restaurant, also at the Lodge, down stairs. We stuck around after we checked out the next day to have lunch there. Also outstanding!
