We always love the Red Oak. Mother's Day was a bit tough, because the wait for food was exceptionally long (2 hrs for food at 1:30 PM). This is just something to consider for future bookings.

From start to finish, each dish was amazing. Unique flavors, top notch presentation, and delicious seasonal offerings. Cocktails were delicious and unique. Went for my birthday, which I stated at time of reservation, and they went above and beyond to make it special. One of my top three meals ever.
