Wife and I finally tried this place, and now we are mad at ourselves for taking three years. Big mistake. I have nothing but gushing reports on all fronts. The entire experience was perfect from the moment we walked in to the moment we had to leave. Tristan was our server. He's been there from the jump and it shows. He loves his job. Who wouldn't? It is a beautiful place, and he can recommend the entire menu with confidence. He's great at his job. Knows all the things. Just great vibes. Wife had a tropical cocktail, beach chair maybe. I had the pecan syrup old fashioned.....house made pecan syrup. DAMN!!!! Pork belly app let us know that chef don't play. After a couple bites, my wife said, "I'm shook." I understood. It's weird to be on the planet 50 years and taste something like never before. It's that good. Everything after that was equally impressive. We had the gumbo, the short rib, the redfish, and the bread pudding. It was the best restaurant experience of my life. Sorry to be so dramatic. This place is doing all the things right. It's not cheap, but after tasting the appetizer I stopped worrying about the price. It's worth every penny. The highest compliments to the Tristan, the chef, and Travis, the owner/operator who checked on us. You have such a great team. Congrats. Well done, Can't wait to come back.

The food and service was excellent. The menu had a very good selection. Prices were reasonable. The various homemade sauces were very good. The homemade lemon ice box pie was a real treat. Very enjoyable

My husband and I made reservations for an early dinner on a Saturday. I'd heard good things about this Mt Laurel gem and I am so glad we decided to go because it was an absolute treat! I ordered the scallops and my husband had the pork chop. He is more than a bit of a foodie and had some questions for the server about the food. She was more than kind and willing to get answers for us. Overall the taste of every item was perfection!!! I recommend the pork chop and the scallops both. Also DO NOT SNOOZE ON THE CRAB CAKE for a starter. So delish! Probably the best in town. This was not a loud restaurant where its difficult to hold a conversation and that we appreciated a lot as well. Overall A+.

I loved this place so much earlier this fall, I had to bring my boyfriend to try it out. We stopped by for an early dinner and were not disappointed. I have a feeling we will be back soon!

Hands-down, the best restaurant in Birmingham. Amazing food, atmosphere and drinks. Service is off the charts and it is locally owned and operated.

Food has always been spot on. The service 5 star. The ambiance can feel stuffy but I look past that and try to enjoy dinner. Usually a reservation is a must. The place is quite small as well. Ask for a big chair window seat. My favorite spot although the chairs aren't that comfortable, they can swallow you. I liked it enough multiple times to buy a friend a gift card for date night.

Celebrated a birthday with wine, a filet, and sea bass. Also had pork belly for an appetizer. Everything was terrific! Our server, maybe named Lizzie (?), was exceptionally gracious and in tune with our relaxing evening. Couldn't have had a better evening. 10/10 recommend!

Food, service and ambience are top notch. A must try is the pork belly for an appetizer and the chicken piccata for an entree. Oak House never disappoints; always consistent.

I'd been stalking the Oak House IG page for months and finally made a reservation for Valentine's Day. They were serving a pre set, three course menu, which was great because that meant less decision making on my end. It's about a 40 minute drive away for me, but one good playlist got me there. I was surprised at how spacious it was and was a fan of the more modern decor. My food was so good! We started with a creamy soup, followed by a juicy filet that was very well seasoned and a lobster tail. I was pretty full by then but still managed to eat some dessert, it was too pretty to pass up. The cocktails were also nice. This was my first espresso martini and I see what all the hype has been about. Our waiter was funny and attentive throughout the night and we even got to meet the owner as he was making rounds greeting guests. Looking forward to trying more dishes!

Since everything was closed on my birthday, i had to celebrate on a different day. I was blessed enough to get a reservation for one of the hottest restaurants in town. The Oak House, is located in Mount Laurel is definitely worth the drive. You must make a reservation or get there when they open because they fill up fast. When we arrived, we were seated instantly. Our server Eden, greeted us and gave us a great description of the restaurant, the menu and what we should try. We started with the pork belly with grits. This could be a small plate entree. It was filled with so many different flavors and the grits were so smooth and creamy. With this being an appetizer, i knew the night was going to be great. Our entrees were the salmon Oscar and the pork chop. The salmon Oscar was a delicate piece of fish with fingerling potatoes under with a lump crab meat sauce on top. What a combination! The asparagus was also cooked to perfection and had just enough crisp to complement the dish. The pork chop, the pork chop, is a piece of heaven meat! You can definitely taste that Chef Oliver didn't just open up the fridge and threw it on the grill. It has a smoky and spicy taste at the same time. The juice that is poured over it, takes it over the top. It is so tender and it cuts effortlessly.the sweet potato medley under it was like having an all star teammate. The sweet potatoes and apples were cooked so that they just tender enough not to be mushy and they just made the dish THE BEST PORK CHOP IN BIRMINGHAM! The Mac & cheese was so creamy and delicious. The noodles were cooked perfectly and cheese sauce has so many different flavors. We both ate all of that! Everything here is made fresh daily and in house. Even the pecan mixture in my old fashion drink is made daily by the best bartender in town. Our desserts were the key lime pie and the bread pudding.we had to fight to get these down but it was so good going down. They both were homemade and met all of our expectations. This is a place that you must put on your radar! Expect a true dining experience when you come to The Oak House. The entire team pays attention to every detail and makes sure your experience is filled with pleasure. Thief will definitely know us real soon because we will be back over and over and over.
