    Paige was a fantastic server!!! She was friendly, and she took the time to inform my wife and I about all the specials of the day. I had the fettuccine Alfredo with the salmon (I highly recommend it). Food was a little pricey, but it’s a fancy restaurant, but it was an overall excellent experience. If you’re looking for a fancy place to take your date, take her to this place. And ask for Paige.

    Celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday here and he enjoyed everything. Food, ambience, and music were on point. I highly recommend this restaurant for a date night, girls night, or if you just want to get out and treat yourself. Sexy Steak is a great restaurant.

    We celebrated my husband’s birthday and there was a happy birthday card on the table when we arrived…lovely touch to start the evening dining experience! It was our first time here and our server, Ashley, was phenomenal! She did a great job explaining the menu and her attention to us during our evening was flawless! We opted for a combination of some of us chose the 4 course meal, and some chose individual items….I’d say everything we had was absolutely delicious! Some of our favorites were the Burrata, Truffle Gnocchi, Bucatini, Ribeye, side Potatoes, and Chocolate Mousse Dessert. Honestly, everything was amazing! We will be returning to Oak & Reel again!

    We had a wonderful server in Elena, who kept excellent tabs on us the entire evening. The burrata is a luscious dish, with some serious heat sprinkled throughout the plating. Bronzino and Lamb rags pasta were spot on. Kudos to the kitchen on a fabulous dinner!
