    Friendly greeting upon arrival, seated in an uncrowded dining area. Perfectly lit and decorated to give just the right amount of ambiance. From the caesar salad to the incredible steak and sides, all the way to dessert the food was awesome. Our server, Ryan was informative, gave us great background on the menu, and suggested a few things that we tried and loved. He was attentive and took care of our meal exactly the way a server should. This place is 10/10 and we will be back.

    Terrific birthday dinner at Oak &Reel. We both opted for the prix fixe - it was delicious and a lot of food! We also did the wine pairing, which was fabulous and allowed us to try some new wines. The sommelier was very flexible with changing out the dessert wine for me, and she wrote down all the wines she paired so we could purchase them for home. All in all, a delightful meal.
