    Brisket with Mac 'n Cheese
    Jasmine A.

    Alright y'all. In summary in case you just want me to get straight to the point, oak and apple is absolutely fantastic. From the ambiance to the food, 100% spot on. I arrived around 12pm on a Monday. I was immediately greeted by the bartender who sat me at the bar outside (my request). I asked for a surprise me drink and they asked a few questions and when I received the drink, It was absolutely spot on to what I normally enjoy. For food I ordered the brisket with a side of Mac n cheese and Oh My Goodness this hit so hard. The brisket was easy to cut into, so much flavor without the sauce, but I'm a sauce girly so I got their "smokin hot" and "apple bbq" and wow, the smokin hot sauce had a lot of flavor and a nice spice to It! The Mac n cheese was cheesy with a soft texture where most places are normally rough at least in my experience! Now on to the service. Carey and Berit are by far the best bartenders in Richmond. They are so caring, respectful, patient, and will keep you company if you're sitting alone . They went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations. They are a total vibe.

    Oak and Apple Richmond VA: Va Angus Beef Brisket Plate
    Bella J.

    It looks kinda like a bar, may even look like a dark weird spot depending on from which side you came in. But don't judge too fast, the place is awesome and brisket is divine! They have a patio with full service and indoor seating with great AC for a hot day. 1. Service is amazing, swift, knowledgeable and professional! 2. Food: great! - wasn't a fan of the apple slaw, but it was okay. - Baked potato is just okay, order with all the bells & whistles. - brisket is amazing! 3. Drinks are good, cider options are great compared to other joints. I personally highly recommend this place.

    Butter Burger
    Cassie M.

    I've ordered the butter burger on door dash several times but this was my first time dining in! It's a very casual establishment, a few tables, and some bar space. I had the potato skins as an appetizer, which were very yummy and with only 6 pieces it definitely left me wanting more. The burger was good per usual. Biggest issue was there were multiple flies in the restaurant.

    Chicken Slider
    Mike N.

    I don't know if I'm officially a brisket connoisseur or just somebody who knows good food when I taste it, but I need somebody to confirm this for me. Does Oak & Apple have the best brisket around or is it just me? I lived in Richmond for years, but I've been gone for over a decade now. Every time I come back, I'm reminded that Richmond's food scene is the best on the East Coast that I know of. Oak & Apple is one of those spots that makes the case. This trip, I brought my son with me after we wrapped up a college visit. Education was the first stop, but brisket was the priority. We sat down and got a new waiter. Nice guy, definitely tried his best, but the service was a little spotty. They didn't check on us much, but honestly, I didn't care. I wasn't there for the customer service. I was there for that brisket. Turns out it was happy hour. Our waiter didn't mention it, but luckily the folks sitting next to us did. So we ordered the chicken sliders that come with slaw and fries. One word, flavorful. You could taste the smoke in the chicken, and the sauces stole the show. The apple BBQ and hoisin BBQ sauces are top tier. I would buy them by the jar if they sold them. But the real reason I was there was the brisket. As soon as it hit the table, I went straight for the burnt ends. So much flavor, so much smoke. You don't even need sauce. That brisket speaks for itself. For my personal cheat code, I usually cut the brisket in half, throw it on their brioche bun, and hit it with a little sauce. It never misses. But even without the sauce or bun, it's perfect. I will come back to Richmond just for this brisket. It is that good. If somebody knows a place that serves a better brisket, feel free to put me on. But I'm telling you now, I don't think it exists.

    Pile High Sandwich, Pork Cracklins
    Gregory F.

    Didn't know what to expect with this place, as we truthfully ended up here by accident after our initial dinner plans fell through. But by the end of the night, we were happy we gave it a shot. Fantastic service first and foremost - our server went above and beyond, literally tracking down every single sauce for us and allowing us to taste test them all since we were so indecisive. Also just super friendly with some solid menu recommendations! Top two sauces by the way? Big Daddy's Vinegar and Apple BBQ. The Pile High Sandwich? To die for. Dense with flavor and texture of different meats and good with literally any of the sauces. The sausage sandwich was alright - not my favorite, but a nice change of pace from your usual brisket, pulled pork variations at a BBQ ppitstop. Diverse beer selection and a quirky vibe that kept us smiling and laughing throughout.

    Southern Poutine with a splash of gravy
    Brittany B.

    I was craving poutine and after searching this in Uber Eats, Oak and Apple popped up. I ordered their Southern Poutine which is advertised as steak fries topped with white pepper gravy, grilled onions, and fried cheese curds. It sounded amazing and I was super looking forward to it. Once the it arrived, I noticed that it was really lacking the white pepper gravy. This was the driest poutine I've ever had - I basically paid $13 for a plate of food that I had to add ketchup to in order to make up for the missing gravy.

    Mac 'n Cheese
    Zorah A.

    Decided to pop in here and I don't regret it at all. Everything was phenomenal and the service was great. The environment was clean and the music was a vibe. The food was extremely flavorful and probably the best Mac N Cheese Ive ever had. Will definitely be returning!

    2 proteins, 2 sides and an order of corn bread
    Stephanie P.

    Went there with our new puppy. Good bbq and outdoor dining. Ribs & brisket perfectly cooked and the cornbread was outstanding. Slaw portion a bit small. Would reco if you are in the Richmond area.

    Took a quick trip down to Richmond for the first time and this place kept popping up. We got there…read morenice and early but there was already a line out the door. The meats here were very good - extremely tender with a nice smoky flavor. I was personally a huge fan of the spare ribs and my girlfriend loved the prime rib (which I have never seen at a BBQ place before!). The sides were a bit lackluster and just ok, but service was friendly. While a bit pricey, I would definitely come back just for the meats! Meats: Brisket, Prime Rib, Pork Spare Ribs and Sausage Links Sides: Jalapeño Mac and Cheese, Potato Salad and Collard Greens

    ZZQ Texas Craft Barbeque does not accept reservations. We got there 10 minutes after it opened and…read morethe line was already long. They have a bar and indoor seating. Outdoor seating is also available. Ambience is very casual. Service was awesome. The people behind the counter were very helpful. They had some samples at the counter to try. They did not rush us and answered all our questions very well, describing the sides and how ordering worked. The beef brisket was heavenly. It was soo delicious. The best one I've had so far. Very juicy and tender. It melted in your mouth. The pulled pork and pork spare ribs were also good. The meat went well with the thick sauce which was my favorite. The house sausage that was spicy and had cheese was good too. The dirty rice was another favorite. Jalapeno mac & cheese had a kick and was good too. Buttermilk potato salad was mashed and had smooth texture (rather than the chunky version). Terlingua cole slaw and cornbread were nice too. The chopped brisket sandwich came with pickled red onions (or white ceviche onions). It had a lot of meat in it and was also delicious. Will definitely come back and try their desserts next time. Highly recommended.

Chicken wings = 4.5 stars (great crisp & sauce)! Pulled chicken = 4.5 stars (great flavor)! The brisket and pulled chicken make for amazing tacos too. Excellent customer service (Davy is so welcoming). Really love this place. Choose their catering for your family, wedding, or company event and you'll have very very happy guests.
