Found this restaurant on Resy. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was quiet and chill (a plus in my book) and the service was great. All around great. Will visit again.

Let me start by saying this is a quaint neighborhood staple. Scout has been around for almost 20 years, keeping things low‑key in the best way. It sits inside a beautifully renovated building from 1915, full of historic charm and facing West Hill Street just off Oakhurst Square.
We had our company Christmas dinner and party there, and a few of us arrived early to grab drinks at the bar. I really liked the L‑shaped setup and the impressive selection of spirits—especially the bourbon and tequila lineup. I even spotted a bottle of Fortaleza (IYKYN) 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
Samantha, our bartender was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly knew all things- cocktail. Some folks started with gin drinks, I went with champagne, and everything was mixed perfectly. Note the champagne was not on the menu so you have to ask. Another member had a virgin orange juice, pineapple, and agave drink. The feedback all around was excellent.
For appetizers, the team ordered the fried calamari and the baked Sophia. I didn’t try the calamari, but everyone said it was tender and not chewy—shoutout to the chef. I did try the baked Sophia, which comes with olive oil, baked cream cheese, tomatoes, and herbs. That one I can confidently recommend as a starter.
Once the whole team arrived, we moved to our reserved table and were taken care of by Monique. She seemed a little overwhelmed at first with such a large group, but she found her rhythm and shared her favorite dishes with us. As a group, we covered almost the entire menu—red meat, chicken, shrimp, salads, pasta, you name it. I went with the braised short rib Diane, mashed potatoes, and swapped the carrots for asparagus. It was delicious and definitely enough for leftovers. I heard great things about the Springer Chicken, the Creole Shrimp Pasta, and the Steak Frites. The Ribeye and potatoes got mixed reviews, especially the roasted potatoes, so maybe approach that one with caution.
For me, the highlight of the night was the holiday décor and lighting. Every table was thoughtfully decorated, and the Christmas tree was charming, warm, and welcoming.
Overall, I’d absolutely recommend the food and the cocktails. Just know this isn’t your everyday Chili’s or Applebee’s—you’re looking at around $50 per person.
My only real critique is the “old home” smell inside, like stepping into grandma’s house with the vintage furniture, antenna TV, and rotary phone. The smell was distinct and lingered throughout. The smell was one of the reasons Cracker Barrel got dropped from the rotation. Other than that, it’s a great spot for a small gathering or a cozy date night in Oakhurst.

I wanted to love this place but I just couldn’t. Initial interaction with our server was weird. She didn’t welcome us or introduce herself. We ordered an appetizer and she walked off without asking about drinks.
The salmon bites were okay. They were drenched in bang bang sauce. I ordered the braised short rib. The portion was overwhelming too large but instead of short ribs, it was as giving pot roast. I had to ask for salt and pepper. The meat was dry and unflavored. The gravy and mashed potatoes was okay. My husband enjoyed his butter. The star of the show was the salted caramel brownie. It may be the best brownie I’ve ever had in my life. Served hot and so gooey. It was so delicious.
The food came out really quick.
Total bill was $117 for 2 before tip. We will not return.

With friendly, quick service and fresh food, Scout delivered. The interior was cozy and clean, the bar is beautiful but the exterior signage was a bit worn.
