Can't find my original review, so reposting. We made reservations for Christmas Day, and received a text that our reservation was booked. We showed up on the correct date and time, and the Oak was closed. Ruined our day. How can they accept a reservation when they don't intend to be open????

The score system did not work properly. Also allow people to finish their games before canceling. Terrible. Food was good, but the value for money is not there.

It was a Christmas lunch with friends. Food was ok. Waitress was very nice.
Not sure if I would go back.

I went to this place a year ago and the stark contrast is great. A year ago my wife and I had the Risotto and a Burger and it was amazing. Fast forward to this day it takes almost 15 minutes for a drink order to arrive at the table, a Guinness and Wine, by the time we get our drinks we're ready to order for the table. Before our appetizer arrived (the sliders) I had finished my drink and wasn't offered another until shortly before I got my main course. Additionally I finished my 2nd drink and had to ask a busser for a 3rd since our server was consistently MIA. The food today vs. a year ago was very different. The burger was mediocre and something I would expect from a Red Robin and the filet mignon ($45) tasted like a combo steak and shrimp ribeye at the local Texas roadhouse. The service was horrible, the food was mediocre, and the price for 3 beers, 1 wine, a kids grilled cheese, chocolate milk, 2 sodas, and a glass of wine being $160.00 was horrendous. Ask me a year ago if I think for roughly the same thing if the price was fair I would say absolutely. This place has gone downhill and would reccomend other upscale restaurants nearby for the price, I.e. the Yard house.

If you are ever in the area, please stop in. The food is delicious, the folks are great, and the whiskey is perfect! They do their own barrel picks! And plenty of beer to select from too.

I got the Oak Burger and it was a 10/10! Absolutely incredible and cooked perfectly!

The short rib risotto is also incredible!

Went to Oak at the Glen on a busy Friday night as a group of two couples with three young children. The host was incredibly accommodating at placing us in an area that was comfortable and more private for our group. The waitress promptly brought crayons, kids menus and cute water cups for our children. Food was delicious and brought out in a timely manner. Will definitely return for both their hospitality and great food!

Our first visit to the Oak was just simply amazing. Rich the owner greeted us immediately like family. It was truly a wonderful experience. The food was so delicious. Sylvia treated and served us like we knew her forever. Anna made us some delicious martinis. It was so nice to sit and enjoy our dinner. We cannot wait to go back You must go !!!

Oak at the Glen has a terrific menu, but I must say this is the place to go for the best burgers in the North Shore. I recommend the double cheeseburger. I just had the jambalaya and it was amazing. It was truly the best I've ever tasted.

The team from The Oak catered our Grand Opening event and they went above and beyond! The food and passed appetizer service was amazing! We have been getting calls all day asking where to get more of those burgers! Thank you so much for making our special event an over the top experience for all of our guests!
