We were invited by very good friends to come here with them. They were so sweet as they even treated us to dinner. We shared an appetizer, the Colossal Shrimp Cocktail, and it was delicious. My hubby and I got the Dry-Aged Strip, and OH MY GOSH!!!! We have not tasted and eaten such tender, juicy, and well-seasoned steak!!! For sides, we shared the Garlic Potato Puree and that was a perfect side for the Strip. Our friends got the A5 BMS 11 Kobe Strip and the Prime Ribeye; They loved it. It was their 2nd time to come here while it was our first time. Then, for desert, my hubby and I shared the The Dome and WOW! It was very chocolate-y, our friends got the Strawberry Shortcake and the cute Mushroom designed dessert. I do not remember what it was called. All that mattered that it was scrumptious!!! True that this restaurant is pricey, but it does not disappoint!!! Come here for all your special celebrations! We definitely would if we could! Your money will be very well spent! Service was phenomenal. They could definitely obtain one or two Michellin Stars ? ?, in my humble opinion.

Everything was *fantastic* except the Brussels sprouts. Service was excellent. Steaks were excellent. Scallops were excellent. King salmon was excellent. The house salad was a standout. Cocktails were delicious and made by a bartender who knew what he was doing. This steakhouse is well worth the drive. Easily on par with fancy steakhouses in major cities but much more welcoming. Avoid the Brussels sprouts at all costs. They were overly salty and overdone.

Fluke night. Usually outstanding but this trip we had some letdowns. Our service was great and we did notice some changes to the restaurant with what is I heard, a new chef. Salt and pepper on the table when before it wasn't. Also, we were brought a small bite from the kitchen to start. Very good salmon puffs. Appetizers came out quickly and then we sat a very long time. A very long time especially as there were only two other tables of two in the entire restaurant with 3 people at the bar. Our server brought out complimentary salads for everyone saying that they were remaking our dinner due to one of the steaks being over cooked. The salads were delicious but by then I was pretty full. Finally the meals came out with my filet being undercooked a bit and my husbands ribeye being overcooked. Potatoes and mushrooms were delicious but the asparagus wasn't cooked nearly enough. Unfortunately we didn't look closely at the bill but feel like they had to have taken something off of it because it didn't cost near what we thought it would. We usually have great reviews of this place so we will be willing to give it another chance.
We've dined at The Red Oak steakhouse several times. It's always been good but this time, it went way above our expectations. From Okan, our usual server, to Manley the executive chef! The service from Okan was absolutely incredible, to the best steak and fish we've ever had there. I told Okan it was one of the best steaks I had ever had. He brought the executive chef, Manley out to meet us. Turns out he and I grew up in the same small town and graduated the same high school, several years apart. He is one fine man and excellent chef! Well done Sirs! Well done!

Best meal I've had in a while. Servers attentive to detail. Prices comparable to fine restaurants in the area but the quality overrode the price. Perfect destination for a special evening.

Incredible food! Service and atmosphere rival the TOP steakhouses! The lead server Okan and Kalana were both AWESOME! I wish there was another entrance directly into the restaurant as opposed to having to walk through the casino. We almost decided not to eat there. Despite that the food and the service will have us coming again and again!

This is promoted as the best steak in Arkansas. It's not. To be clear, the quality of the food is high. Unfortunately, the steaks were overcooked. Med-rare was medium. Rare was an over med-rare. The temps are key - if your are gonna be the best steakhouse anywhere, they better be on point, and they weren't. Still really tender, well seasoned, tasty steaks - but unfortunately overcooked. On top of that, all the sides are a la carte and ridiculously overpriced. $14 for asparagus or mushrooms or Mac n cheese in a casino in Pine Bluff AR? Not a good value. Again, good quality food, but overpriced. The bread basket seems to be a selection of rolls from Cisco. Not good. Just give us a hot, freshly baked sourdough. At half the price, this is five stars plus. At the price charged, should be perfect. It wasn't. 3 stars at the best.
My good friend, Todd Gold, hosted an anniversary dinner for my wife and I and my mother in law on 11/25. Excellent food, outstanding service. Can’t recommend enough!!
Food was very good in the past, but this time everything was really bland. $70 steak had no seasoning at all and was overcooked, salad had almost no dressing. Service and atmosphere were great as always, but food was terrible.
The food was fabulous. I highly recommend the crab cake to start with. The service was exceptional. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful and knew the menu very well. I highly recommend Red Oak for a delicious meal.
