A lot of people think this is just a golf course but it’s one of the best restaurants around in the area!! Great prices, good amount of food, and it’s always delicious! The owner, manager and staff are great people as well! Highly recommend!

The Oaks Grille is great. You can go for drinks or drinks and food. They have different specials, all creative. The best part is the staff, each and every one of them is personable and fun. George is a manager that actually helps the team. They work together to make your experience enjoyable. If you have an issue they correct it with a smile. I always know it will be worth the money we spend here. We go at least twice a week. Oh and the desserts are wicked good. ❤️

We had our 50th anniversary party there and the room was set per our request, food was delicious & plentiful, as it was set as a buffet. If I had to mention a negative, it was guests had to wait extremely long for their drink orders. If I had to change something, I would've asked for another bartender to be added for our event. All in all, they were extremely accommodating and we were very pleased.

Went there last night. Ordered drinks at the bar and said we were going to eat. Sat down, was ignored. Another table came in, they were given menus right away and were waited on first. We said we'd like some menus as well. I ordered the blue burger, which consists of bacon, blue cheese, and grilled onions. Received the burger with no bacon and the onions were probably on the grill for a few seconds. So I basically got a burger with blue cheese. Told the server, he said he'd discount the bill. My aunt ordered a salad and chicken tacos. Not being able to eat the tacos, she brought them home and found out they were fish tacos. Looked at the check, got charge for fish which is more money and so is the blue burger. We did not get the discount off of the burger. So check your bill before you leave! We were very disappointed. Margaritas were not good. Either was the mango margarita. For the rice of everything, I'd suggest making dinner and margaritas at home.
There was only one employee that was smiling and pleasant. That was the food runner. He was a delight. Sitting outside was nice as well. But those are the only two good things I can say about this place.

Hands down, one of the worst burgers I ever had. Why even ask how you want it cooked? Medium requested, dry, gray (no pink) and over-charred is what was delivered. Flavor was strange, too (heavy gas grill flavor).
My wife had the patty melt. Same results.
Fries were undercooked and cold. Truly disappointing dining experience.
Service… didn’t get the app we ordered. The waiter used “cool” and “you bet” to respond to requests.
To note, this is not our first time at the Oaks. Food has never been great.

Food was mediocre, service terrible. Have a nice patio but need some staff that has experience in hospitality. Great place to open a bar!

The Oaks Grille was always a favorite, but in the last few months the food has been awful. The spaghetti and meatballs on their new menu is inedible. The brussel sprouts appetizer is made with frozen sprouts so they were squishy. Even the burgers were not good. I'll go back for the atmosphere and entertainment but we'll only be having drinks at the bar. Do not waste your money on the food.

Went to the Easter Buffet. Would not recommend, not worth the price. Will not be going back.

Google needs to correct this - they have mixed in reviews from the previous Kennedy Point with the Oaks Grill and that is unreasonable. This review needs to be updated just for the Oaks Grill. Kennedy Pointe is history - wake up

First time trying this place since it converted from Kennedy Pointe and we found it to be, well not great. Our ToGo order was missing items in the bag and what we did get tasted basic and not special in any way. Quality control needs to be improved both with packing ToGo orders and with overall quality of food. The salmon was dry/tasteless and they forgot one of our sides. The cheese curds tasted like grocery store frozen food. Would not recommend this place unfortunately.

They remodeled the place. They now have a beautiful outside seating area. The inside now has an extra bar in the back. The menu is awesome. The food is delicious. They kept an previous staff member (Tiffany). Great move.

From the moment I walked in I knew it was going to be great. The place was so well decorated and newly remodeled just made everything stand out greatly! Kayla, brenna, and Tiffany are all so great at their jobs. They all came to make sure everything was going well. Ryan the manager is outstanding! I will definitely be back. The brisket Mac and cheese, Nashville chicken sandwich, guacamole bites and pub burger were beyond phenomenal. I would most DEFINITELY recommend Oaks Grille, they are for sure going to be my regular Friday night stop!
