Best Restaurants with Great Beer in University City

Made reservations and was seated immediately. Great atmosphere and the food was amazing. Definitely busy but fairly family friendly. Great playlist! Can't wait to go back and try more items.

We had a 7:45 pm reservation, arrived about 15 mins early and had to wait 30-40 mins to get our table. We stood in the bar while waiting. Bar was fairly loud. We enjoyed gin rummy drinks. Our table was in a quieter side room. We shared the chorizo-stuffed dates as a starter. Very tasty. Hubby had the gyro and love it. I had the mixed grill which was excellent. We shared the creme brulee for dessert. It was excellent. We took a slice of key lime pie home to our daughter. She thought it was fabulous.

Probably one of the best meals we’ve had in a long time. Ordered the mussels for appetizer, would’ve liked some more flavor to the bread but broth was good. We split the caeser salad and it was great and a big portion even split. Our entrees were the highlight, my husband got the 8 oz ribeye and I got the Chilean sea bass special and wow, probably one of the best fish dishes I’ve ever had. The sauce on it was also amazing. The steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned well. Overall an excellent experience and we will be back, even if it is a 30 min drive for us.

We had the best time dining with friends at Olive and Oak. Our server was outstanding, along with all of the hosts, bussers, and additional support staff. Our meal was perfectly paced and gave us time to enjoy each course, as well as visit with our friends. The food and drinks were absolutely spectacular, as always. To top things off, we were gifted a bottle of wine before leaving from the manager. Hows that for a wow-factor?!

Really enjoyed the atmosphere, food and drinks were great. Definitely worth checking out.
