    I wish I remembered the waitress name but she was great! It was a good ambiance and we were able to carry a conversation around lunch time on a weekday. It is inside the Laura Hotel. We had the lunch special which was an appetizer, main and a dessert. The Brussels sprouts > wings > mac and cheese, but all were solid. The main course we both got the braised rib over collard and sweet potato mash. My sister thought the mash too closely resembled baby food in appearance and texture. However she enjoyed the collards and rib. I thought the collards were undercooked but the mash was ok to me and the rib was good. The dessert was very small, which I didn’t mind too much because I’m always looking for just the taste of dessert and not necessarily the calories that go along with it. Overall, it was a solid experience.

    The food was subpar. I had chicken and waffles and the waffles were cold or tasted store bought.

    I understand they were training new staff... but the service was terrible. We had to seek our waitress out every time we needed anything. I also was not impressed with the food. I had the fish tacos and their fish was extremely dry and the sauce was not very good. The rice was so spicy you could not eat it. The place is so beautiful, the venue is great, you need a new Chef, better menu and better trained staff.

    Hull and Oak provided a wonderful experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was cozy and upscale, making it a perfect spot to enjoy a relaxing meal. Our server Tanisha was warm, professional, and attentive. She made us feel right at home. The chef did an amazing job with the food; everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated. I ordered the Illy’s latte, which was a bit bitter at first, but after sweetening it to my taste, it was just right. The mimosa was decent, though the choice of champagne could’ve been better. Even with those small notes, my overall experience was definitely five stars. I will absolutely be back!

    The restaurant was lovely but seemed short staffed. We came during brunch and my coffee was only refilled once, and it took over an hour for us to get food. I don’t think I could recommend it to others.
