This location recently opened and it was our first time trying it for after-church lunch. The restaurant was not busy. Service was great. Our waitress was friendly and professional with a cheerful personality. Portions were huge and the food was good, but not amazing. The decaf coffee was robust and my husband liked the sweet tea. We tried the Brie and pear flatbread with hot honey. We would recommend this - definitely enough for 4 to 6 people. Bread service is extra and comes with jalapeño cornbread mini muffins, rye rolls (not a strong flavor) and bread with compound butter and berry jam with whole blueberries in it. My favorite was the muffins. I tried the sirloin steak tips which tasted good but seemed more like steak frites steak than the tips I expected. The sprouts were good - I did ask for them extra crispy. The garlic mashed potatoes seemed a little thin to me like they made them with water instead of cream so they could be vegan? My husband tried the grouper and clam risotto. He enjoyed it but had missed that there was bacon in the risotto and thought it was too chewy. read more

Food was excellent but expensive. Wine for 19 a glass is a turn off. 40 for prime rib and a baked potato not veggie and no bread. We both had the same thing. 145 with top. Good food just way too expensive for what you get. read more

Service by Tina was amazing! Honestly the steak tips were ordered medium but were well done. For $40 dry is not great. My pear and brie pizza was undercooked. read more

Great new addition to the Parrish dinning seen. Open back and patio will make for a great place to grab drinks with friends! Cheers read more

Great food . Heather G was the best !!!! Thanks so much !!! We had an awesome evening !!!! read more

Just got back from oar & iron and I have to say I was not impressed. The bill with 4 people was $350 with two cocktails and two beers. The prime rib was the worst I've ever had. I had to send it back because it was well done, not medium. The potatoes were ice cold. The other people dining with us said the meal was just okay. I was really hoping it would be good. One and done. read more

Ate here twice. First time very good but 2nd time all food came out cold including the soup.

Amanda was very efficient ... and the food was perfect !! Brava !! Best Chicken and great carrot cake !! read more

Absolutely the best around town. Live music, great server (Heather W.) and the margarita was perfection. Fish and chips remind me of home and the sole slaw that comes with is out of this world. Thanks. Coming back for sure. read more

Food and Service was good. Restaurant was clean and ambience was nice. Had a great lunch.

Smallest piece of grouper I have ever seen on the largest bun they could bake! Extremely salty and it had a stick from some plant in it! Prices are extremely high for the area. The decor and facilities are beautiful but I go to a restaurant for the food not the view!! read more

Went here around 2 PM on a Friday because the new aqua tequila had a long way and it was very crowded. We were seated right away. Place was mostly empty maybe eight or 10 tables taken, including outside one waitress serving the whole restaurant a bit of a weight for food and drink waitress was very good trying her hardest very pleasant though or an iron burger was delicious. The cheese and steak sandwich was OK not your usual steak and cheese and some gristle in it. I don't know if I'd go there again. I'll leave it up to you to try it. read more

Pricey for what you get. Went to social hour and got chicken tenders. 3 small and tough pieces

The food was not prepared well. The service was not as good as expected. Disappointed！！！

Tyler provided us with exceptional customer service! We really enjoyed our experience at the restaurant. We love the extra steps that are taken to ensure that the food we ate were Gluten free. When mentioning an allergy they have the manager bring the food out to the table to prevent cross contamination. We enjoyed our food and will definitely be back! read more

Went to this restaurant 3/2 was not pleased at all! My food iron dip was not hot when it came out also my husband did getthe ribs but also same problem. The bartender who was waiting g on us that we had already paid and gave generous tip we now having a women who is helping him telling g me we did not pay for our key lime pie. I told her we did not order key li.e pie. She said bartender said you ordered it. He came over and told us it was the other customer who left and did not pay. I was very annoyed to have a terrible dinner and to me talked to this wY. Unacceptable! read more

Great food and service. Meal was cooked to perfection. Restaurant was a little loud making it hard to converse accost the table.

I'm sure some super nice people work here and my apologies to them but this place is extremely overpriced bar food. Beef O Brady's will save you $30. 2nd time there because I believe in second chances. They should be serving 5 to 7 years for the robbery they just committed. Trying to be funny but I will not grace the front doors again. Nice people, but the concept doesn't fit the price or quality. This is an over priced bar. Sorry read more

I am so excited about having Oar and Iron come to Parrish. We sat at the bar handedly tended to by Tina. Our both was comfy and our adorable waitress, Dalia, certainly added to our positive experience. She is a very smart server who is invested in her restaurant. We waited a long time for opening day but it was worth it. It has a friendly, upscale vibe. read more

Mussels app,gritty, flat in taste,would not order it again. Sat at the bar,real.slow in service. Hoping my next bucatini pasta is better, will let you know read more

I have eaten here 3 times since it has opened. It is a little pricey, but the quality of food is outstanding. Service is good, you can tell that they have just opened people still a little, unsure of stuff. I've enjoyed every meal, especially the steak bites. Had the prime rib I would not recommend. Look forward to eating here more often. read more

Happy hour was fabulous and so was Kenzie! I'm thrilled to have such a great restaurant so close by!!!

Oar & Iron was a very fun surprise find! So excited to have them in Parish, FL. EVERYTHING on the menu can be made gluten free! BONUS! And Kenzie was a great server!! read more

We love this restaurant! It is definitely the Best restaurant in the Parrish area. The bar is big & beautiful & the barters ate exceptional. We love going there on Friday nights. There's so many people from Massachusetts there it feels like home. We love the Bartender B & Tina they are a fantastic team. Get the short rib, gnocchi's and a wedge salad. They were both phenomenal! Also the ribeye with mashed potatoes is mouthwatering incredible. read more

I ordered the crabcake sliders and the hamburger sliders and the Aji tuna bowl and the salad Caesar salad The crab cake had no flavor whatsoever and the hamburger was good. The Caesar salad was too wet and it was the wrong dressing for the Caesar salad and they put banana chips in it for garnish the ahi tuna had no flavor whatsoever. It was completed dry as a bone. The ambulance to the place was beautiful. Service was good, but I would not highly recommend this place is very expensive for the food purchased read more

We visited last Saturday afternoon. We were immediately given a table and promptly forgotten. We waited over 15 minutes without being acknowledged by any staff member although several servers passed our table. After 15 minutes, we took a good look around and left. Too many good restaurants to have to put up with terrible service. My wife and I will not be returning. Restaurants have one chance at giving a favorable first impression and sadly Oar & Iron failed to do so. read more

This place is beautiful inside. Very elevated decor and menu. Heather W helped us with some picks since everything on the menu looked amazing. The cocktail menu was also impressive since it's all super fresh ingredients. You can tell the scratch kitchen brings the flavor. read more

Sat at the bar for happy hour on a Friday, drinks were great, food was very good and Teagan our bartender was awesome!

Had a wonderful meal at Oar and Iron. Food is delicious and restaurant has a nice atmosphere..Our server Nikki was amazing.

Service was wonderful. Amanda was great and the meal was very tasty. Wonderful home made blue cheese dressing.

We had the most wonderful time at Oar and Iron! Our server, Tyler, was so kind, fun and helpful. He was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and answered all of our questions. One member of our party has allergies and he explained how seriously the restaurant takes that. They have a designated allergy friendly kitchen that allows for no cross contamination. The food is delicious and unique. The hummus appetizer and the Brussel sprouts were especially good. The decor is gorgeous and gives the place and upscale, yet friendly vibe. We will be back. It's a great addition to the area. read more

Good, service and ambiance terrific. Nikki was put served. She was knowledgeable, friendly, attentive - couldn't ask for better! We've been to the 120 Grille inertial, Ma and loved it..... the Oar and Iron surpasses it - the menu amazing for people with celiac !! Thank you for coming to SW Florida! Now, please come to Bradenton!!! read more

I ordered the roasted chicken. It was delicious. Two other friends with me share this opinion. There people order the chicken bucantini which was also enjoyed. However, their over-priced lobster tails had so much sauce on you could not taste the lobster at all. It's ashamed to take such a delicious dish and ruin it. read more

Great food and service from Nikki! We were very satisfied with the quality and freshness of our food.

The food was good. Next time I would ask to go light on the salt. Our server Heather Winkler was amazing!!!!! Very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. read more

John took amazing care of us at the bar. We will definitely return! Thank you Oar & Iron

Food and service were great! Atmosphere was fantastic too!! We will definitely be back!!!!

I was excited to dine at Oar and Iron in Parrish, Florida. So dissatisfied! The prices are ridiculously high for what you are served! The burger had pieces of gristle thur out. Plus it was miserably cold in the restaurant! It was 60 degrees that day and the a/c was down so low I kept moving to avoid the cold air. I made a suggestion to the bartender that she needed to turn the a/c to a higher temperature. Nothing was done...she laughed and said that it was always cold! I would never go back. Prices are just outrageous. read more

Great food served quickly and hot! Tyler kept the service level too notch and is an excellent waiter!
