Original American Kitchen (oak)

I had an incredible experience at the restaurant! The staff were wonderful, and the food was outstanding.

What a charming little town with delightful scenery! I wouldn't hesitate to return to this place. The server was very friendly, and there are both indoor and outdoor seating options. I ordered the fried chicken, which was a bit dry, but pairing it with the garlic mashed potatoes really made it worthwhile. The dessert options are fantastic, and the bread pudding is unbeatable. Don't miss out on happy hour!

The Oak is a remarkable and well-organized restaurant. They offer excellent vegetarian options for those looking to enjoy some healthy food. I will definitely return when I’m in Gainesville.

Tonight, my fiancée and I visited a vibrant district filled with restaurants for dinner. I ordered a Captain and cola, while she opted for a black Witwen drink. We started with a buffalo-style cauliflower appetizer, which we both enjoyed. My fiancée had the braised boneless ribs, and I chose a beet and arugula salad topped with candied pecans and goat cheese, along with an Angus steak (which came at an additional charge). Our meals were served promptly and were delicious, with generous portion sizes that didn’t disappoint. While the prices were slightly above average, they were still reasonable. Our waitress, Amanda, was fantastic—she was funny, attentive, and professional, even assisting us in locating our hotel for the evening. We wouldn’t hesitate to return to the Original American Kitchen. Thank you!

Venue: quite large restaurant, tables and stands available. I ate alone at the bar. service: the barkeeper approached me quickly and was quite courteous and friendly. the manager also approached me as my meal was. Eat: it was pretty good, delicious steak, but they pay for it. drinks: they had a great choice, but stuck with my dietary coke on the rocks!
