Stopped by for some happy hour drinks and food. We came during live horseracing, not intentionally, and it gets pretty loud and wild during the races. Kinda fun to watch people get exciting and cheer for their horse. Chips and Guacamole Guacamole was delicious. It wasn't just mashed avocado; this had tomatoes, onion, and some really nice seasonings in it. Pico de Gallo was fresh, tomato heavy and refreshing. Mix them together and you've got a nice appetizer. The chips seemed like they were fresh fried on site, tasted fresh and were hearty enough to hold up to the guac. Wings The wings were really nice sized and finished over fire leaving a nice char texture and taste. The BBQ sauce seemed bland to me. It needed a little more sweet and a little more spice, I didn't taste much of either. Overall, great chicken but could use a different or more flavorful sauce. Crispy Chicken Tacos The tacos came out looking good, all dressed up in a fresh fried tortilla shell. The chicken itself was kinda dry and didn't taste freshly made. The shell was nice and crispy and tasted really good. Overall, the chicken tacos were not my favorite here. read more

Well-done bar/grill classics. I highly recommend the fish and chips + tri-tip entrees. Great for solo dining, groups, and families! read more

I'm a lifelong carnivore, but pictures of the roasted vegetables and creamy burrata sandwich made me want to try it. Let me tell you the flavors in the sandwich are amazing. Now I read this combo also comes on a pizza? I'll definitely be back. We had the option to sit in the quieter front room or the gaming and bar area where horse racing enthusiasts were having a great time. It was so entertaining watching the horse races and fellow patrons. Now I can't wait for football season!! This place is a lot of fun and seems to attract a lot of nice people. The service is fast, attentive and friendly!! I wish this new fun and delicious restaurant the best of luck in the future. We'll all definitely be back with more friends. read more

Met up with friends at this new spot and enjoyed ourselves! It wasn't too busy for a Friday night, service was good and the drinks and food were, too. Elevated bar food with a menu including burgers, sandwiches, salads, apps and more. I really enjoyed the smash burger. Sweet potato fries weren't bad and overall good for bar food. I had a nice time and would come back again if in the area looking to watch a game and have some drinks and bites. read more

They have done a great job lightning up the space. It's still a great place for watching sports. The burgers are solid and the spicy barbecue wings were awesome. Drinks were well priced. McKenna was an amazing server. She was very attentive and kept the us laughing. read more

First visit.. Had the grilled chicken sandwich that was described to be spicy but it was mild. I like the crunch of the bread with the lettuce, chicken was good. Had a cup of their clam chowder soup, which was the star of the meal actually. it seems made in house because theirs had lot of clams and identifiable potatoes. Would order the soup again. Service was attentive and friendly. Can be loud if there is people betting on races. Otherwise chill place to eat at and plenty of parking. read more

It's more of a bar experience than a dining experience. We went for a Saturday lunch and the bar had a few people watching UFC or something. In the table area there were a few uncleared tables and we were told to sit anywhere while the food server would be along shortly. So we waited, and waited, and waited while we watched as occasionally one of the dirty tables would be slowly cleared. Still, eventually a guy (not the actual food server) came by to take our order and the food was prepped reasonably quickly. And he did stop by once to ask how it was. That was the extent of the service so unfortunately I'd never go here again. The food was not bad but overall just way way too slow and uncaring on the service side. read more

This is a decent place to watch a game. Food is alright and drinks were not overly expensive, like many places are these days. There are tons of TVs so you can definitely find a place to sit and watch whatever event/game you want. Overall, I wasn't blown away by the food, the drinks, or the quality of the service, but it is a solid option to watch a big game. read more

I love this place! As a Boston native, I'm very particular about my chowder and my pizza. Both are AWESOME here! Great selection of beers and the prices are very reasonable. Everything I've tried on the menu has been extremely good. The only thing better than the food is the service. I'll be back again soon! read more

Shout-out to the newly renovated Family-friendly sports bar/restaurant on TO Blvd, OAKS LOCAL, (formerly Tilted Kilt). We had a blast watching the Dodgers win again last night -The cocktails are fun & creative, the wine list is a page long, drafts & bottles, and the food is Elevated & Delicious! -Not your standard bar fare of wings & burgers. So many delicious entrees, sandwiches, appetizers, and all at great prices. -Fresh, light bright paint makes a huge difference inside. Bye, Bye Dive Bar, Hello Family Sports Bar! -Great service, too! read more

I went here for the first time, and this looks like a great place to watch a game with friends! The service was excellent. read more

A few months ago, while eating our dinner, a ceiling panel fell on (including a bucket of water) us and our table. The newly hired waitress sprung into action to help us. We couldn't find a manager to let them know. When we did find him, he seemed irritated at the fact the panel fell on us. Didn't even ask us if we were ok. The ambiance in the room we were in was so loud we couldn't hear each other talk. However, Food was decent. read more

We saw a great band last night with average food. Huge restaurant space was pretty empty for a Saturday night at 7:30. 19.00 for a burger the size of a McDonald's double cheese. Fries were tasty, burger average. BLTA was good. Coleslaw tasteless. The gentleman that served us was excellent. I did notice that servers weren't really identifiable. A t-shirt with the name of the restaurant or wearing same colors might have helped. We would come back for the music and maybe a beer. Should have noticed almost no other tables had an entree. Maybe an appetizer, most had nothing. Sad cause the place has great potential. read more

Great chocolate cake! Don't leave without trying it! Like seriously, 2 Die 4. Sometimes the regulars kiss me on the head like a real Irish pub. Plus there's limitless Diet Coke. Limitless! I just go, "hey, Cat, can I have more Diet Coke, and she says Yes!" And I think she means it too. Like a never ending pipeline to the Coca-Cola source. Great location too! It's in Thousand Oaks AND on Thousand Oaks Blvd! What a meta experience. Again, try the chocolate cake! read more

Wanted to see if this place still had horse betting . Was a tilted kilt that closed a year ago . It's remodeled . Same bar and horse betting area . Higher prices for beer . But a good place to watch the ponies . read more

Not family-friendly, it's a bar for betting on horse racing. This is in no way a place you should bring your kids. As for the food the pizza was good but the mains were drab at best. So go for the bar food that's 1 star for the main and because they advertising as family and are not. read more

Friendly service, amazing cocktails, excellent pizza! Will definitely be coming back! Great find!

Went on a Friday night a couple weeks back and this place was absolutely DEAD! I figured we would get our food quickly since there was nobody in there but NOPE it took at least 30-45 mins to get our food and it wasn't even that good! Very overpriced as well. Only positive was our server being friendly but that's all!! Wish Roxy's deli came back to this spot because oaks local was a disappointment! read more

Love/hate it. Love it because it's an huge improvement over Tilted Kilt for sure. Especially, the uniforms for sure. Hate it because of menu being limited, paying for the actual sides as well, bathroom/s kinda still on the small side. Especially, regular stall/s for sure. read more

I believe my waitress -was Jennifer . She can back to make sure things were good and we had everything we needed . Food was good-loved my burger and old fashion was tasty .10/10 will be coming back read more

My wife and I stopped in for the first time. We had never been to the prior restaurant Tilted Kilt so we didn't know what to expect. The decor was very classy and clean. But what made my wife and I very happy was right after we were seated, our server greeted us and brought waters A simple gesture but sadly it hasn't been happening much in many of the restaurants we visit. Our server introduced herself Jennie (Jenifer). She had an easy smile and great personality. She had answers for all of our questions and checked in often throughout our meal. She was awesome and I hope to have her every time we stop in. I was also surprised to see that they have an area where you can eat and watch and bet on the horse races! Cocktails were outstanding. Cindy, the bartender knows what she is doing We split the Rueben sandwich and tri tip sandwiches and they were delicious. Great job everyone, we will be back. read more

Great spot in town! Fantastic eats, good drinks and a fun vibe to watch sports or just have a casual dinner with the family. The service and ambiance was spot on and I can't wait to keep coming back. Get the "Adults are Talking" cocktail...you won't regret it! read more

What a cool restaurant I really enjoyed all the items that I had, including the very generous sized salad (Cobb) and the Poke tacos are not only tasty but also sizeable, (so many out there trying to make "micro- style" street tacos. I can't wait to go back . read more

Went here a few days ago and was not impressed. The server took forever to bring out the food (it was not busy) and after taking the orders it took 15-20 minutes for her to tell my friend that they didn't have any chili for the tacos. Girlfriend got her order 15 minutes or so before our meals (hot dog) and the burger was underwhelming. They should have started the burger first and then the quesadilla and hotdog. The ambience is kind of weird, a nice bar area with horse racing on the tv's and loud background music. I don't think I'll be back, i try support local restaurants but this place was a let down. read more

Three stars because of the UFC on the majority of televisions! Who wants to eat while grown men in underwear beat up each other with blood flying around. So gross! Salads and chicken sandwiches were very good! Nice people running the place! I would suggests UFC on one tv and not on the jumbo ones read more

The service here is excellent. Our server mallory is always attentive without being intrusive. The entire staff worked seamlessly together to create a seamless dining and drinking experience. We never had to ask anything twice!" And everyone in here is so friendly Keep up the good work, Girls read more

Food, service, & sports bar ambience was good. We'd go back. It was fun to watch the line dancing. Very friendly.

Pretty cool spot to catch a game, but we went with a party of 8 and none of us cared for our food. Tried burgers, sandwiches, "clam chowder" which I put in quotes because it tasted nothing like New England clam chowder anywhere else. Wanted to love this place and have another go-to spot, but they need to work on the food. read more

Food was very good, service was slow. Ordered a fish and chips to split with my wife and Natasha didn't bother to bring an extra plate. When she brought food I had an empty diet coke glass that she didn't bother to refill. I had to ask a bus person for refills because Natasha never came back to the table except with the check when we were leaving. read more

We were waiting for our car to be serviced and walked up to the place. Apparently, it was Breeders' Cup day and there were horse racing bettors all over the place. All of the TVs had the races on loudly. Our server, Mallory, was spot on. We ordered nachos with tri-tip, a beer and wine. The nachos were great. Service was great. The patrons were crazy, but fun. read more

Unfortunately, four of us we went in for dinner last night. We were seated right away and were the only people in the restaurant besides guests at the bar at that time. The gal who seated us also got our drinks and then we sat from 5:05-5:30. We got up and asked the same young woman who brought our drinks if she knew who our server was so we could order. She said she didn't know but she would check. It was alarming because the restaurant was almost empty. She returned five minutes later and said she was the only server, and the girl who was supposed to relieve her never showed up for her shift. She said she would take our order and profusely apologized for the 30ish minute wait, but she looked like she was about to cry and we felt terrible for her. We saw her talking to the manger and he was NOT nice to her. By now a few others had come in and that same man, presumably the manager by the way he was barking at the poor server trying to help us, was waiting on the new guests. We ordered and 20 minutes later she retuned to say two of our four meals were unavailable. 20 minutes later AFTER we ordered!!!! So by now we've been there an hour and our order still isn't in. All the while the manager sat and served other guests coming in, ignoring our table, oddly, even though It was evident that there were issues.... Like no food after an hour and we're all just looking around trying to figure out what was going on. He wouldn't even look at us. So we changed our order to something "in stock" and about 20 minutes later our food came out. The two of us who changed our order to fish and chips because they were out of the pastrami we originally ordered, tried our meal. YUCK! It was soggy and the breading so wheat tasting and thick we could barely chew it. I'd like management to try the fish and chips. I'm not sure if maybe the manger was just having a terrible night, because he was SO unfriendly to guests and seemed generally VERY irritated that he was having to help out. Never a smile. Nothing. Just militant and intimidating to the woman who worked there. That part is just SO disheartening. I hope the young server finds a better place to work. She deserves better than to be treated the way he did, and right in front of guests. Luckily sometime after 6 additional servers arrived. We won't be back and I hope management provides some training to their "management" because it was a shameful, uncomfortable mess. read more

Delicious, had the best burger ever. I live far, but it was worth the drive. Great service, highly recommend it.

The service was OUTSTANDING! I believe her name was "Mel" she was our waitress all day... we arrived at 10am and she was The Best!!!

We had a great time tonight. Food was good, service was great... and they replaced the bathroom fixtures -- huge improvement over Tilted Kilt!! We are very excited to frequent, especially considering it's down the street from us! Big improvement guys, keep it up!! read more

Stopped by Oaks Local Craft Kitchen and Bar today for lunch on a total whim, and let me tell you, turned into the best decision ever! Not only is the vibe in the restaurant very cool and comfy. With various areas to chill and watch the game we really enjoyed ourselves! I ordered the tri tip tacos, and when I say they were life-changing, I mean I had a full-on existential crisis halfway through the first bite. I questioned everything: Why am I here? Is this love? Can tacos actually make me cry? Spoiler alert: Yes, they can. These tacos were so good, I briefly considered framing the last one instead of eating it. But who am I kidding? I devoured it. My husband got the double burger, and OH. MY. GOODNESS. The man has been talking about it non-stop since we left. He actually whispered "I miss it" on the drive home. It was that good. I swear I saw him tearing up when the last bite disappeared. LOL It's rare to find a restaurant that nails both of our meals at the same time AND makes you feel like you've unlocked a new level of happiness. Oaks Local Craft Kitchen is that place. If you're reading this and even thinking about going, DO IT. Seriously, what are you waiting for? The perfect moment? That's now. We will be back. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe every day this week? The staff might as well start calling us family because we're moving in! Oh and in regards to the staff. I swear our waitress was standing there waiting for my tea to need a refill! I felt so well cared for! read more

First visit. Family friendly, lots of screens, great selection of games on, super friendly staff. As much as I would like to go back, I likely won't because of the food. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good. Our party of 7 had many different selections and all of them were meh. I'd really like to see this place succeed, so hopefully they make some improvements with the menu. read more

I ordered take out and I tried to be super thorough when ordering over the phone so that they would get it correct. When my husband picked it up and brought it home it was missing the fries that came with my burger and the coleslaw I paid extra for. I did call and spoke to the manager who was very nice and he invited me in next time for a few appetizer on him but I'm not sure I'll go. The burgers we ordered said they were smashes which is our favorite and a very specific way of cooking and there was nothing smashed about them. Maybe getting non burgers are better but I'm not sure I'll go again just for a comped appetizer. I truly wish I could have just had my fries with my burger. read more

Food was delicious... we had the chicken on fire sandwich and a cup of tomato bisque, and it was out of this world. Drinks are really well-made. Price is very affordable and portions excellent. Hector, the bar manager is super friendly and helpful. Always coming to our table to make sure everything is OK. if you skip this place because it was previously the tilted kilt it's completely redone with a new menu and a way better attitude and fresh look. don't miss out and come here ASAP! read more

Wish I could be nicer but a giant miss. Hostess was clueless Server was very nice which makes the review harder. Grilled wings seemed a bit undercooked Tri tip plate had 3-4 tiny thin slices for $25 Chicken sandwich was so thin it was like jerky Prices were a bit high since they didn't include fries Burger was good but not good enough to offset everything else. The place was dead inside which is apprepeau read more
