My best friends and I visited The Oxford Kitchen and Gastropub in Lodi, CA [110 W Oak St] on…read moreThursday, 08/06/26, around 7:30 PM. To share around the table, we split the following: - Crab Cakes - Sticky Toffee Pudding The salad and entree I ordered for myself included: - Heirloom Beets & Melon - Classic Beef Wellington First and foremost, the salad was absolutely fresh and palatable. I was not used to enjoying a salad with beets + watermelon, so now, I am a fan. The crab cakes were flavorful, especially paired with the house-made lemon aioli sauce. The Beef Wellington dish was divine. The meat was super tender, the brown sauce was dynamite and the vegetables + mashed potatoes were the perfect complements. Lastly, the sticky toffee pudding was great, as the dessert was not overly sweet. The green apples added on top provided a nice balance of tartness against the richness. Junior was my server. I appreciated his warm, friendly disposition. He was very kind and attentive the entire time. The Oxford Kitchen and Gastropub has delectable British food. I am so glad that this restaurant is located in Lodi, which is super close to my hometown. I'd definitely return.

We also ordered the mussels and calamari. The mussels in the tomato sauce they came in were absolutely delicious! I was worried I wouldn't like the calamari because I'm not a fan of steak-cut calamari, but it was soooo good! You could really tell it was freshly breaded and fried. We also ordered the M&M pizza and the Super [something--I forgot the name ]. Both pizzas were crispy, with a moist and soft crust. 5/5 pizza! For dessert, we got the tiramisu and chocolate gelato, and both were really good. The chocolate gelato is HUGE and definitely shareable. The restaurant is super cute! I recommend sitting outside for a different atmosphere. We didn't realize the outdoor patio was still enclosed, so we ended up sitting inside. I wish we had sat outside! The service was okay. Our server was nice, but between the assistant server and our server, there were a few times when we felt left unattended. Maybe they thought they each checked on us ‍ I definitely recommend this place, and we will be coming back!

The music was not loud nor annoying. The lighting takes you away from reality, it give a sense of being in a totally different city even country. It was such a romantic dinner. There were several couples enjoying the moment and the food. Menu/Food: The menu had plenty of options, in my opinion a bit hard to make up my mind. We had a difficult time choosing since everything seemed like a great option. Drinks: they have alcoholic drinks and for people who do not consume alcohol, they also have mocktails which were delicious. We order two mocktails and they were refreshing and felt fancy. Staff: welcome and always ready to help and assist when needed.

For starters we had an order oysters and an order of bone marrow. They both tasted as expected-delicious. The oysters were not dry or undercooked. Just perfect. For our entrees our group had the skirt steak which comes with mash potatoes and green beans. The meat was great quality and the beans were cooked al dente. We also tried the chicken Parmesan--big portion accompanied by marinara sauce. Another great choice was the wine braised short ribs: very tender and plentiful atop mashed potatoes and vegetable medley. Real tasty, I had to steal a corner from my wife . We had a great experience. Our server was attentive and helpful. I would definitely go back for more. Happy bites !

The flat bread was warm soft and so good we asked for seconds lol. We ordered the grilled artichoke..the char grilled taste was great and the dip was delicious! We shared the salad special today, which was a pear salad that came with raspberry and blue cheese. Everything went well together it was refreshing. And for our entree we shared the mushroom ravioli and the pork tenderloin medallions. The pork tenderloin medallions came with green beans and mash potatoes. Everything was chefs kiss! My favorite was the mushroom raviolis.. it was so flavorful and mushroom-e if that's even a word but you know what I mean. So good! My other friend ordered the seafood pasta and said that was also very good. The dessert presentation was perfect! You get to see their dessert menu in 3D! A tray of deliciousness.. Literally the dessert itself! We shared the chocolate mousse and was not disappointed! It was light and chocolatey all at the same time! Stumbled upon this place... but now a fan.. I live in Elk Grove and would drive south for this again for sure!

We were greeted and seated promptly after arriving. The restaurant is decorated in vintage paintings and furniture, a large brick oven for pizzas and a cute outdoor patio with additional seating.

I ordered the Tri Tip Green Chili Melt which was really good, others in the group ordered, wings, fish & chips, chicken caprese sandwich & the French Dip.

We got the foccicia bread basket as an appetizer and it was really good, herb, olive oil, soft bread like a sponge. The chicken pot pie was excellent, full of flavor, great crust and good filling. I got the French dip, it was probably one of the best I had in a while. The au jus was the best part, thick, flavorful along with a strong creamy horseradish. Service............. Not so much. For a big place that was maybe 40% occupied, it was soooooooooooooooooo slow. One server from what I see, 2 bussers, and 5 others standing around chatting. Took a good 30 mins to get seated (there was tables available), though we got to go to their tasting room, and got a bottle of wine; another 20 mins to get the server's attention after getting seated and probably another 40 for the food to come. That was probably the most irritating.

Always a good sign. We were quickly seated in their covered patio area. The seating was quite comfortable. The staff were prompt and attentive. I ordered the Potatoe Platter. Probably not the healthiest of choices but who can deny a heaping platter of country style potatoes mixed with grilled ham, bacon, onions, and topped with melted cheese. I mean seriously. I ordered mine with eggs and ordered the pancake instead of toast, more on that later. To say this is a hearty meal would be the understatement of the year. Try as I might, I packed over half of this delicious dish for breakfast the following day. Judge me if you must, but I measure all pancakes against the gold standard of pancakes, McDonalds. The Avenue Grill offered a solid pancake, light, fluffy with a slight snap, every bit a worthy competitor to my favorite. Before I knew it, the pancake was gone. My wife ordered the French Toast. Want we loved about the Avenue Grill is sometimes you just want good, simple food and this was the case with the French Toast. Based on a light Sourdough, the french toast had good flavor and came together nicely with the syrup. All in all, we absolutely loved Avenue Grill. If you're ever in the Lodi area, Avenue Grill is worth a visit.

It's set in a nondescript strip mall & the restaurant itself is small with outdoor seating with space heaters but we three sat at the bar so we didn't have to wait at all for a table. It's very casual yet chill ambiance. Parking is free & there is only one restroom for the entire restaurant. So plan ahead. My son & I had the Denver omelettes with sourdough toast. My wife had her usual veggie omelette with no cheese but with sourdough toast. When we were served our breakfast our faces lit up literally bc of the massive amount of food. And that's an understatement! We ended up with boxes to go bc there was so much food on our plate. Crazy amount! You can be sure we would return! Can't wait!

It's contemporary and the furnishings are quite comfortable. It's the type of place you can settle in and have a casual meal without feeling rushed. Prices are high yet the quality is excellent. For the first evening at the bar we settled into a high top table. You can sit at the bar, lounge type seating or outdoors on a pleasantly shaded patio. They had an expanded bar bites menu as the main restaurant is closed on Wednesdays... most of it quite enticing. We opted for cocktails to start and I chose a specialty Date Maple Old Fashioned. It was really good with a large ice ball to chill it. For bar bites we shared the pork belly sandwiches (small, delicious but messy to eat), the sausage skewers (amazing!) and crab cups (refreshingly light and easy to eat). After cocktails we had glasses of a light white wine, made with Santorini Greek grapes. For the next meal in the dining room the place was a buzz with activity but conversation was easy without a lot of excessive noise. It's intimate and the room is quite pleasant for a gourmet meal. We started with cocktails (same Old Fashioned) and shared the grilled Brussels Sprouts which were plentiful and ever so delicious. They were slightly over grilled for my taste yet it didn't distract from me enjoying them. We got bread which was a baguette with butter and the consistency perfect for a French style loaf. For my entree I debated between the scallops and the pork chop and went with the chop. I was quite pleased as the chop came in thick slices and drizzled with a tarragon mustard reduction sauce. It was amazing, tender, juicy and at 22oz I couldn't finish it all. It came with a tasty apple sauce and grilled seared cabbage. Absolutely delicious. Ed, celebrating a birthday, had steak which came with a huge bowl of mashed potatoes which I tasted. Oh my gosh, the creamiest potatoes ever! For dessert we shared the cheese plate, a really great way to end the meal, with glasses of a twany port. All of the cheeses from a brie to a hard cheese were top quality. Service both times was very attentive, professional yet personable. We were well cared for and everything went smoothly. It's expensive yet the experience and value is worth visiting. Make a reservation.

Review #1,109 Posted on 9.13.26…read more We came to Americana House on Sunday August 30th before heading home from staying at Appleation for our anniversary. Americana House is located right near the check in lobby at the resort. The food was really good when we came here. They've got a unique selection of a few items, including a crab omelette which we tried, it was very good. We also tried the shakshuka too, really tasty stuff. You put that on the soft fresh bread and it tastes like so good together. Service was good when we came, as well as the ambiance there in the morning for breakfast, eating outdoors when the weather is nice is always a mood setter for the day on the weekend or vacation. Would eat here again when staying at Appellation again for sure.

But, I really enjoyed the flavor and wanted to try it in person, so we went directly there. I would have to honestly say this is the only way I would recommend eating here since having it piping hot truly makes it a more enjoyable experience. The fries are absolutely FIRE. They're cooked perfectly and seasoned perfectly and while I am not even into fries, these ones I am a fan of! The signs tell you about the spice level, and definitely trust them. The medium is a true medium (just enough spice before a burn). The hot does burn your lips. The ranch is delicious and everything was just so satisfying I couldn't have been happier with it. It does take about 20 minutes for an order, which they notify you that they make it fresh. It is totally worth the wait and the drive to go in-person.
