    Hush puppies were small compared to other local restaurants
    Karen F.

    I've enjoyed several visits to Oak and Palm over the past 6 months. Tonight our table had Cajun Chicken Alfredo, Carolina Crab Cake, and house salad. My friend ordered the Cajun Chicken Alfredo was moist and delicious with the right amount of spice (not overly so). The portion was generous. I ordered the Crab cake and house salad as a meal. It was very good, although I felt the portion of aioli was too large relative to the size of the crab cake.. The house salad was good but had more carrots and cucumbers than lettuce. That was OK with me but others might not appreciate it. Service was good. The hostess was very friendly and personable and I wish I'd gotten her name. The waiter knew the menu and provided solid answers when asked questions about menu items. It was a perfect evening for dining on the patio and if that strikes your fancy, be sure to make a reservation during the summer months. It's definitely prime real estate during the busy season.

    Great visit today. Went for lunch and sat outside. Views were amazing, service was great and attentive. Started w the calamari and it was good, it had asparagus and peppers were a nice touch. Sauce / aoili with or was good too. We both had the bao buns my friend said she would want the tuna next time to go w the Asian flavors - I absolutely loved it and wouldn't change a thing. We went inside after to escape the heat and each had a Hugo spritz which the bartender didn't bat an eye at and made delicious and fast. Great place for food, drinks or views

    Short Rib over Coconut rice and Oak Chop

    We came in for our Anniversary they gave us a beautiful seat in the corner with great views if the water. Then the food was amazing I ordered a passion hibiscus margarita which was amazing and not overly sweet and it complimented my Korean Short rib over coconut rice amazingly. My wife ordered the Oak chop a huge pork chop with marsala sauce over potatoes. Everything was amazing food service and view. Will definitely be returning next year when we are down again.

    Waterway views, great food and phenomenal service. Oak and Palm covers all 3! Visited on a busy Saturday evening and we were greeted and seated immediately. Our server had great menu knowledge and his recommendations were spot on. The salmon jambalaya was packed with flavor and the portion was veryyyy generous. This will be a spot i visit again when in the area.

    Beautiful restaurant with wonderful marsh views especially from the back seating area of restaurant. It's a relaxed atmosphere, bright and airy with large windows, wood tables, a few booths and a lovely well covered patio area. They have two really nice bars, one downstairs and another beautiful bar upstairs. Our server Daniele, who happens to be the pastry chef at one of their sister restaurants, was such a pleasure! Even if the food hadn't been as great as it was, she would have made up for it with her winning smile and personality as well as her attentive service! Now for the food! It was wonderful. The fresh delicious sea bass was prepared perfectly; moist! All the sides sounded amazing! We loved the rice that came with the entree as well as the parm risotto we just had to try! The apple arugula salad was also special with well paired ingredients and a wonderful light dressing. But for me, the topper of this lovely experience was Daniele's phenomenal coconut cake with a light fluffy whip cream frosting and toasted coconut! It is simply amazing and I was on cloud 9 eating it!! All in all, the atmosphere, food and service made our dining experience heavenly!

    Hush Puppies w Cinnamon Butter
    Bethany D.

    Sunset Beach needed this restaurant - and it was worth the wait! Although it was the "off-season" and they got off to a late start to opening day - I think this is a GREAT way for them to ease into the business before the busy season! The decor is beautiful as are the views. There are two bars: one upstairs facing away from the water and the main level facing the bridge. It is an absolute amazing view - whether you're dining at the bar, main floor, outside patio, or upstairs on the second deck. Since I was by myself, I started with the hush puppies. The old twin Lakes was known for these and they did not disappoint. I don't know if it's the same recipe but the cinnamon butter was absolutely amazing. Definitely enough hush puppies for the table. My dirty martinis were made perfectly by the bartender who was very attentive. I ordered the Pork Belly Scallops, and it was an amazing combination. The corn purée and the hash was not something I would've chosen as a side... But it definitely complimented the dish. This is a great restaurant and is wonderful for a date night or special night out. The owner/manager made her way around to each table, which I thought was a nice touch. I don't know that this would be the best place for kids, but they did have a kid selection. I hope nothing more than to see them succeed. We will be back the day after Thanksgiving- reservations made!

    Sesame tuna

    My lobster bisque didn't have a piece of lobster in it and was bland. and my tuna looked great but had no flavor. My husband said his sea bass was good. I was disappointed for sure.

    Good concept slightly over cooked
    Josh P.

    Inventive menu lacked execution. Service was good and we accommodated with a reservation when they were full. That was very nice.

    We had a delicious dinner. My husband had chowder and jambalaya which was delicious. I enjoyed a dish of Chilean sea bass with coconut rice that was superb. My absolute favorite. Nice view of Sunset Beach intercoastal. The waitstaff was exceptional and the manager came over to check on us during our meal. Definitely going back.

    We came back to Aromas At the Beach Food, Bar & Breakfast for the second year in a row, and somehow…read moreit was just as good (if not better) than we remembered. Everything here is PACKED with flavor. We tried a little bit of everything -- empanadas, fried yucca, chicken, soup -- and there wasn't a single miss. Every dish came out tasting fresh, well-seasoned, and like it was made with care. You can tell this isn't just your typical beach spot... this is legit. And the service? Just as impressive. Every table inside was completely full, so we sat outside on a beautiful day -- and even with how busy they were, the service was FAST. Our hostess was fantastic the entire time, super attentive and on top of everything. You'd never guess how packed they were based on how smoothly everything ran. The fried yucca was perfectly crispy, the empanadas were loaded and flavorful, and the chicken and soup tied everything together. Honestly, one of those meals where you keep saying "yo this is GOOD" after every bite. We made it a priority to come back this trip, and now it's officially a tradition whenever we're in Sunset Beach. If you're anywhere nearby and want something different from the usual seafood spots, don't sleep on this place.

    Attractive family owned business. Very friendly service. We had the mini empanadas, fried squid and…read morecheeses sticks as appetizers followed by entrees Chicken Fried Rice Arroz Chaufa and Jumping Cow.
