Live music most weekends, outdoors in the summer in a large parking lot. Everybody who knows, goes there. John & Sparklyn are good people!“

“My husband and I are visiting from Arizona and were meeting some friends in The Glen. We planned on going to The Yardhouse, but thought it was too noisy. Saw the reviews for The Oak and we were so glad we did. The burger I had was the best burger I have ever had, our friend felt the same. My husband and our other friend had the rueben, they loved them also. We left the restaurant and we were going to take individual pics, then this really nice guy offered to take a picture of all of us. He was so very nice. Guess what, he was the owner. We will definitely be back on our next visit here and our friends will be back sooner. Great food!!!!“

“Love this place, not enough to move to Illinois but if I did, I would be a regular. Thanks to our server/bartender for a great afternoon. We will be back when next in the area.“

“We have discovered this place 3 years ago when we are searching for an outdoor casual dining. What we found was a great place that had outdoor seating on a deck patio with umbrellas and a TV set to watch sporting events. The service was friendly, and the food was great. The drinks were very reasonable. The menu was large having everything from sandwiches to dinners. We never had a bad experience there and brought family and friends to enjoy the evening sitting outside. We always come back.“

“Absolutely love this place especially when Rosario is working, she is very friendly and very helpful. She is always making sure you have a drink or need anything. I really enjoy my time being there when she is there . She makes this place feel so much fun!“

“Stopped by for some drinks and I didn't want to leave. I wanted to start trying some of the fancy drinks that were being talked about. Needs a nice cocktail menu to showcase the specialties. Also the decor seemed interesting, but it was a little too dark to see what the bar looked like inside. Will return out of PURE curiosity and to either make it 5 stars or not.“

“Had an Italian beef sandwich here today and it was very good. Not as good as Johnnie's or Al's, but still very good considering that you're at the airport. Plenty of peppers and giardiniera if you ask for it spicy. Service was very quick and friendly as well. Not a big ship, just a little bar that serves Chicago dogs and Italian beef and for for good prices. A great find!!“

“Fun place to be very friendly and good music.“
