Located on Charleston's historic Broad Street, Oak Steakhouse is a classic American steakhouse. A classic array of both wet and dry aged Certified Angus® Beef are featured on the menu. Ingredients are sourced locally and regionally from sustainable farmers and fisherman to accent the steakhouse menu. Items including local oysters on the half-shell, Clammer Dave's caper clams and a daily fresh fish selection depending on the season. Other popular dishes include the whole fried lobster, goat.sheep.cow artisanal cheese plate, wedge of Kurios Farms bibb lettuce salad, the house-made pasta and vegetarian plate. The expansive and impressive wine program at Oak Steakhouse emphasizes big California Cabernets and Old World reds from Italy and Bordeaux with more than 200 wines by the bottle and 20 wines by the glass. The bar attracts a loyal, local following from nearby businesses and neighborhoods with its great cocktails and happy hour. Inside a historic bank building that dates back to 1848, Oak's stately setting features three floors with five distinct dining areas. Arched windows, 20-foot ceilings, original metal work, fireplaces and 150-year-old heart pine floors, offers the perfect setting for enjoying a special evening.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: In a historic bank building from 1848, Oak Steakhouse rises up three stories of leather booths, exposed brick, and cozy fireplaces. This is the place for seafood towers, Angus steaks, and bold Cabernets. It’s the heart of the Indigo Road group, helmed by James Beard semifinalist restaurateur Steve Palmer. There are now seven locations across the South, but none beat the original—Condé Nast Traveler calls it one of the best restaurants in Charleston, while others rank it among the best steakhouses in the country.

First of all, I did not appreciate the waiter asking, TWICE, what price point of wine I wanted to buy. Instead of just providing his pairing recommendation and description, he insinuated a limited purchase power. Secondly, my party waited over an hour to be served. Thirdly, my party was gifted a bottle of wine, yet the waiter failed to properly explain the gift and who it was from. I will not be patronizing this restaurant anytime soon!

Server Chris was great and food was very good. The management came to our table for a food issue which was nice. When I gave him my critique he was very understanding and handled it.

They really made it special with the birthday girl’s name on our menus, a complimentary glass of Prosecco for the table and a slice of chocolate cake with a candle to end the night. Food came out in a timely manner and was delicious. Our server was so attentive without be overbearing. Loved the overall ambience. Definitely pricey, but worth it for a special occasion.
