It is consistently good for both food and drinks.

- SScottSacramento / Sacramento Valley •5 reviews4.0Dined on Nov 2, 2024My son ordered the streak and for $40 we were very disappointed in the fact the server did not deduct the steak from our bill. Steak was super fatty, chewy, my son will eat anything but he spit out several pieces. I still tipped 20% because it’s not the server’s fault that it was a bad piece of steak.More infoThe Oak GrillPrice: Expensive• Bistro• San Luis Obispo•4.3
