This spot is good! Reasonable prices, considerable portions and the employees are regularly super friendly.

The food is really good here and it was my first time ordering from the Twisted Oak. Certainly won't be my last I tell you that for sure.

The entirees did not impress and came out cold. The chicken was undercooked and partially raw while the duck was a bit overcooked. I will say the duck lasanga and sides wers amazing. That combined with the excellent service is why this location earned 3 stars.

The food was really good. Great brunch.

The menu is very different! With too many options to choose from. We ordered a variety and did a family style which was great.

This place is awesome! Mike the owner was personable and friendly. He really cared about my party and our meal. It was delicious. The bar was great. Food and ambiance were wonderful! Definitely want to come back with a larger party to enjoy this wonderful local restaurant. The service was excellent!!!

Although the service was pleasant it took way too long to get the appetizers and main courses to the table. The duck came out well done despite it being medium rare. There were only two pieces of duck breast which was a little stingy.

Another Fabulous Meal!! We've eaten here before and love this place so it was the perfect choice for my fiancee's birthday. You must or appetizer the truffled chick peas , you cannot stop eating them they're so good! The kale salad is so tasty with its deliciously delightful citrus vinaigrette. We shared the pork chop and the duck lasagna appetizer with a side of brussel sprouts for our entrees. This is the 2nd time I've ordered the duck lasagna and it was as delicious as the first time I had it! This place is a gem..we will be back.

Had one of my worst restaurant experience ever last weekend. It took us a half hour to get the server to take our order (and there were empty tables). We asked for bread and got none. We asked again when we found the server and she said they "were working on it". Eventually we received a basket with 4 tiny cold, tasteless slices of bread. But we did better than the table next to us who were told they were now out of bread---before 7pm! We asked when we get our appetizers and a server (not our original server who was nowhere to be found)said she would look into it but she never returned with a response. Eventually, we felt after waiting almost 90 minutes since we had ordered that we had to leave since we had tickets for a performance that evening. We paid for our wine (which we perhaps should not have inder the circumstances) and grabbed and wolfed down gyro's at the semi-fast food Greek place up the street. Miserable experience at Twisted Oak!
Twisted Oak was neither great nor bad; it was meh. We had an 815pm reservation and weren't seated for 45 minutes, except for being offered two bar type tables 30 mins into waiting. We also felt rushed at the end becuase everyone else was gone except us, even though we were seated late. The food was okay - the meatballs were good, the burrata was tasty but really small. For entrees two of us ordered shrot rib which was delicious, but two of us ordered the duck that was recommended and it was bland, dry, and underseasoned. The duck, not only being pricy, was disappointing, and the portions were not equivalent- my duck dish was well portioned, where my friend got two pieces half the size of the two I got. We also ordered brussel sprouts to share and they were good for the most part, but a few were super flash cooked and semi-raw in the center (and no- not just blanched- I know what blanched brussels are supposed to taste like).

We had dinner at the Twisted Oak at 6:00 on a Saturday night. The decor is fine, and the servers were really nice, extremely friendly and helpful. The food was amazing, and even the dishes and bowls were unique and special. Unfortunately, because of the noise level, we can't go back there. There is no noise reduction on any surface, and by 6:30, it was so loud that, in addition to shouting to be heard as we talked at the table, the servers several times asked me to repeat myself because they couldn't hear me. At some point shortly after that, someone in the restaurant turned on music, which, of course, forced everyone to speak louder to be heard over the music. Everything was great, but if being able to hear your dining companions speaking and not coming home hoarse from shouting are priorities, this is sadly not the place for you.

I chose The Twisted Oak because it is near the Music Hall and I planned to attend a performance. It got good ratings, so I thought we would try it. The food was unusual, but tasty, and the service was attentive (although slow). It is rather pricey, but that is what one would expect if there is only one seating for the evening and the waiter pays a lot of attention to each table. I did have to send my soup back because it was initially not hot, but that was fixed promptly. The dessert, which was lemon meringue pie, was certainly creative. It came in little dollops of lemon and little dollops of meringue, with small pieces of pie crust here and there. Not what I was expecting, but satisfying. Overall, it was a good experience, but best for a special night out given the prices.

Unfortunately service was terrible. It took 45 mins just to get a drink. The four of us in our party didn't even eat at the same time. And our side dishes never materialized. It's a shame as the food itself was delicious but service was all over the place and they never acknowledged it with us at all.

We he'd a nice evening and enjoyed our meal. The food was good but not great - not very imaginative. The service was very good. Wait staff was attentive and informative but not interrupting. It was a Wednesday night, so it wasn't busy. It probably shouldn't matter that much but the decor was so drab it was a distraction.
