   Great Ambiance! Very beautiful place, and our waiter was amazing. The only downfall was that my filet Mignon was a bit over cooked. If you are a person who eats medium-well ask for medium. Overall we will be back again.

   The wait was excessive and when my steak came it was paper thin. I do not believe my steak was a prime cut maybe a mid grade.

   The food was excellent and portions were more than expected (large). The service was lacking. And in my opinion, the tables are way too close to one another making it seem much louder and hard to hear one another. But the food is excellent!

   Service was terribly slow. Our reservations were for 8pm we didn’t get seated until 8:30 and the upstairs room had plenty of tables. We didnt get the bread until 9pm. The buttery mashed potatoes were dry and not even warm, they tasted like powder potatoes. The spinach they didn’t use fresh garlic they used jarred. The Tomahawk steak was not worth the money.

   Polished wait staff, unusual decor and good food but limited unless you want steak. Everything is extra with the steaks, including sauces and sides.

   The Oldestone is an absolutely stunning visual experience. if only the culinary experience was as thrilling and appealing, this would be a 5-Star all the way. Overall, fair-average in the quality of dishes we were excited to try, but were left somewhat unimpressed.

    Food and service was outstanding. Disappointed to arrive and find the bar area closed for a private and very loud party. We were seated quickly but literally found ourselves struggling to have any conversation over the noise.

    From the moment we walked into the 1st level pub area we were greeted with smiles. The drinks were awesome! Bartender recommended a Sav Blanc for my wife and it was perfect. I ordered a Tito's and grapefruit, and it was perfectly made. After enjoying the ambiance and a cocktail we headed to the 2nd floor dining room. Again, redundant but again greeted with smiles. The service was amazing, and the food was awesome from the opening Tiger prawns to the Ceasar to the crab cakes and Mahi Mahi. This truly was an incredible night celebrating my 20th wedding anniversary! Can't wait to come back...

    The service was slow it took about 15 to get out first drinks. They say they are a steakhouse but the steaks were very underwhelming. Both our table steaks were cook wrong and the steak had no flavor.

    Good food and drinks are to be found at this nice New Hope staple. A varied menu, including delicious 😋 Grilled Octopus. We do miss the good live music of The Great American Songbook, which used to be performed here .

    Food was great. The restaurant was about 2/3 full. There were four waiters and two runners and a manager helping out. Yet we waited 10 minutes from being seated before anyone came over. And we ordered our dinner at 6:30 and it was not served until 7:45. The staffing seemed sufficient, but the service was not up to the usual level. We will be back because we love Oldestone, but we are providing this feedback constructively and respectively so that things can potentially improve.

    Bottom line, Porterhouse for two was overcooked. WE asked for medium rear. We realized that New Hope is overpriced, however if the steak was prepare correctly the dinner would of been satisfactory for the price. This is a one and done for us!

    Service was absolutely horrible. We waited 90 minutes JUST to place our order. Our server dictated how we ordered. He refused to take appetizer orders until we knew what we wanted for our entrees. I have never heard of such a thing. After waiting 90 minutes to place our order... then the appetizer, first course and entrees came out within 10 minutes of one another. Each of us in the party felt pressured to eat rapidly and left feeling sick and dissatisfied. The water also spilled a drink on someone in our party. Other tables were clearly dissatisfied with the service as well. Will NOT be back.

    Walking in to the dining room is an experience all it's own. Breathtaking describes it best. Our server greated us like family and was a wealth of knowledge about the building. She truly knew the menu and made helpful suggestions. Our meals were flawlessly prepared and on point with our expectations.

    Anniversary dinner at Oldestone, such an amazing meal! Candied bacon appetizer was delicious and our steaks were tender and perfectly done. The flourless chocolate cake and key lime pie were dessert perfection.

    Found out recently that Oldestone opened in the old Marsha Brown location. It was nearly empty at dinner time on a Sunday, and we soon found out why. The waiters seemed confused about which table they should serve, resulting in different waiters trying to take our drink orders and giving us conflicting information about the specials. After finally getting our order in, it took 40 minutes to get our appetizer, the raw bar tower, which sells for $110. It had a lot of shrimp but skimped on everything else. I’m still not sure why this restaurant serves two different kinds of cocktail shrimp, but there they were. For the main course we ordered a filet and a NY strip, both of which were excellent quality and cooked correctly. The sides, however, we’re not very good. The creamed spinach was more of a thick dip consistency and the “hand cut shoestring fries” were clearly out of a bag of frozen thick breaded fries. Overall a decent experience but you can do a lot better for the price, especially with $16 cocktails.
