On the way…read moreover he told me the history of how they were a downtown staple that recently moved to Ybor. He is also a restaurateur in the neighborhood and wanted to check them out. It was late on a Tuesday night so the place was pretty quiet. We sat at the bar and had some old fashioneds and shared a few apps. Our bartender was great and the old fashioneds were perfect. For one drink I switched to a pour of my favorite Angels Envy Rye (which they had for a decent price), but switched back to the old fashioned for drink number three. The appetizers were all packing big flavors and often a unique twist. The Korean crab shrimp scallion pancake was light an airy. I didn't notice a ton of seafood flavor, but it was fun to share. Next was the Korean pork belly tacos. It came with two tacos which was perfect and the flavor on these was so good. The pork belly was perfectly tender with no fatty gristle. These are a must have. The star of the show was surprisingly the Mushroom Tartine which we only ordered because the bartender recommended it. The flavor on the mushrooms was amazing and it mixed perfectly with the soft goat cheese and crunch from the sourdough. Never take this off the menu. By the end of our visit we were chatting with the bartender and met the chef as well. I would love to come back for a full dinner here.

Vanessa was our waitress and is from Germany and her recommendations were spot on. I can't rave about the experience and food enough. This place is an absolute must!!!

Delicious- just go!…read more The vibe is pretty homie gives French bistro vibes and feels like an old living room throughout most of the restaurant. Service was friendly, quick and helpful and prices were more than fair for the flavor. We went for brunch and everything we had was very tasty- I didn't use a single condiment, which is rare the French toast was amazing. It's honestly the perfect amount (non American portion), but you will want that more. We also had the crêpe V something and the rustic omelette both exquisite. I will be happy ordering this every time, but I'm also curious to explore a few of the other options. The menu isn't super dense, but we're thinking of trying the sweet crêpe next time and maybe a desert. Pro tip add some of the syrupy whipped cream from your French toast to a cappuccino and enjoy. Better than most lattes. 10 out of 10 would brunch again!

I love French food. I really really wanted to like this place. The waitress was very nice. I…read moreordered a cup of French onion soup. It wasn't very strong in onion flavor it tastes a little bit like a mushroom soup. I ordered the cheddar omelette with bacon and onions. The bacon was not cooked and the onions were hardly cooked either. The owner tried to tell me that I needed to ask for the bacon extra crispy before they cooked it. That's ridiculous. Raw bacon is still raw bacon. I think I'll pass on the salmonella today. They removed it off my bill so I paid $10 for a cup of soup and an iced tea And then asked him if he could break a $10 so I could tip the kind waitress in cash. He gave me two fives back. Not helpful. The pastries looked very nice, but I don't think I'll be back.

Oak & Ola is doing brunch at a level you rarely see, and we would come back in a heartbeat…read more We came in for brunch and left genuinely impressed. The space is gorgeous, all marble surfaces and natural light, and the food matches the room. The Million Dollar Deviled Eggs were the standout. Crispy fried oysters piled on top, bacon jam, both red and black caviar, all set on a bed of sea beans. It looks like art and eats even better. If you order one thing here, make it that. The Smoky Spanish La Bombas (fried Vermont cheese curds with a spiced apricot jam for dipping) were exactly the kind of crispy, savory, slightly sweet bite you want alongside a cocktail. Speaking of which, the cocktail program is serious. Plenty of creative options and everything came out beautifully garnished. The Steak & Eggs was a proper plate of food. Grilled hanger steak with a bright shishito chimichurri, two perfect sunny eggs, and a generous pile of crispy Yukon hash with scallions. Cooked right and seasoned well. My wife went with The Burger and gave it a perfect 5 out of 5. No notes. Service was excellent and the atmosphere is hard to beat. The whole experience felt elevated without being stuffy. We will be back to work through the rest of that menu. 5 stars, highly recommend.

Shoutout Owen. He was my server and he made it feel like I was the most important customer ever. He is a superstar. They are doing it right. They have it going on.
