Oswald Restaurant offers a fantastic dining experience with delicious food and efficient, friendly service. The menu features options like crab & avocado appetizer, lamb, halibut, hamburger, lasagna, steak, and duck confit. The atmosphere is upscale yet comfortable, making it perfect for a date night. Many reviews highlight the best burger and fries ever, along with great drink specials and wines by the glass. Guests have enjoyed the excellent value of the bar menu. Although entrées may be pricey, the quality matches the prices. The restaurant has gained a reputation for reliability in quality dining, with excellent service from the staff, including the welcoming hostess. Some have pointed out the less appealing surroundings of the city parking garage, including filthy stairwells and public restrooms. Despite this, Oswald remains a favorite dining spot, consistently praised as the best restaurant in downtown, with generous portions and solid execution.
