I cannot say enough great thing about The Oak!! We got the Birria tacos to start and they were amazing, the perfect blend of savory and spice. The drinks were fantastic, the Pirates Garden was the BEST cocktail I've had in a long time??For dinner we had the pork shoulder and sea bass. The pork shoulder was served over a bed of delicious & creamy Mac n cheese and the Brussel sprouts... the entire dish was mouth watering. I highly recommend this place to EVERYONE!

100/10 experience, especially if you like Whiskey! The service staff are all super friendly and welcoming - from your assigned server, to the host at the door, to servers just walking by. S/o to Justin, btw. He was an amazing bartender and gave me a complete run down of every whiskey I tried. I left with a ton of new info and most importantly a new fav whiskey! The lamb sliders and Mac was amazing. The flavors were amazing and the quality of the lamb was great. Such a nice spot to stumble upon. Can’t wait to bri my some friends back!

I love this gem! This will be on my rotation of go to spots for dinner and drinks. The food was amazing and I had the mussels are the best I’ve had in the Triangle. Service was exceptional. This place is a total vibe.

Food is always good, be warned the deserts and ribs are on the richer side. Little heavy for me, but still good. The reason you go is for the bourbon. If there is an old fashioned artisan, it's gotta be Glen.

Exceptional bourbon and whiskey selection. Great history lesson with my flight for each of the distilleries. The birria tacos were super dry, which should be easy to do. To be fair everyone else enjoyed their meals

Interesting how they mark a review not to their liking as spam. I would also like to advise that our card was charged more than what the bill was. Customers please double check your transaction.

Enjoyed a bourbon flight and a wonderful meal at The Oak last weekend. Really liked their home blend of bourbon and a great value, wish they sold it by the bottle. Everyone's food was delicious and the portions are generous.

I absolutely love this place, but I do have one gripe. They really need to invest in some sound deadening. It was fairly busy and the acoustics were such that I could barely hear people at our small table.

Our server Tyler was awesome. Knew his stuff and was very helpful with menu selections. Food was phenomenal! Don't get to Raleigh much, but I'm going back to The Oak for sure.
