Old Oaks Steakhouse delivered one of the best steak dinners I've had. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and inviting, and the service was attentive without ever feeling overbearing. I ordered the 45-day dry-aged ribeye, and it was absolutely phenomenal. It was cooked perfectly, with an incredible crust on the outside and a tender, juicy center. The dry-aging gave the steak an amazing depth of flavor that was rich, buttery, and unlike your average ribeye. Every bite was packed with flavor, and it was easily one of the most memorable steaks I've had. The sides were excellent, the service was top-notch, and the entire meal felt like a true steakhouse experience. read more

Top notch steakhouse. Once you have some legit dry aged beef, you can't go back to normal steaks. The menu only had up to 45 days dry aged and so I asked if they had more older. Turns out they did and so I ended up with a delicious 90 day dry aged. Shout out to the head chef David too for coming out to our table and explaining the various older cuts they had. Awesome dude. Too bad I live so far away. I'm going to dream about going back and getting some more dry aged steaks. Everything about the restaurant from the design and ambience, to the bartender, to the service, quality of steaks, and perfect cook of the steaks, 10/10 in my book. read more

Amazing food and nice atmosphere. Sides are all amazing as well, and steak was perfectly seasoned. We loved the sweet potato and asparagus. I ordered filet on the bone (12 oz) but beware you're paying way more than the 12 oz filet for about 5 oz meat. Our server was very pleasant and helpful. Just a few things were a bit off for a $400 dinner for 2-when my partner ordered a second glass of wine it was brought in a new glass. Mine, a different type than the first, was poured into a dirty glass which is an obvious miss for switching up wine. They also poured house water into our bottled still glasses, but they comped the mistake sending us home with a free still bottle. And service to order was slow - probably about 20 mins more waiting than necessary when there were only 3 tables full in restaurant. And any steakhouse brings out bread unprompted--they do not. For the price, they should. I'm told you can ask for it and it's free but why wouldn't they just offer it if they make it? Little details like this are expected to be on point for $200/person. Still might be back, as it's some of the best food in Thousand Oaks. If you don't want to valet, you can park around corner on TO Blvd. read more

Great service, excellent food. This was my second time here. We're planning another trip soon. The charcuterie is amazing! read more

This is one of my favorites in Thousand Oaks. I came for their Daou winemaker dinner which was a great treat, they had so many different cuts of meats and seafood including scallops and Wagyu, two of my favorite things. The company was amazing and was happy to be surrounded by fellow Daou wine lovers! Definitely planning to come back for their next specialty wine event. Thanks to the amazing servers who always made sure our glasses were full! read more

A++ for the steaks! We had the 45 day aged ribeye and the Australian wagyu ribeye. Cooked perfectly how we asked. Tender. Juicy. Well seasoned. Lobster deviled eggs - get them! But share them, because eggs are filling in general and you want to leave room for the main course, right? Bread is baked fresh and comes out hot if you ask for it. It doesn't come automatically for each table. The mac and cheese is a big and shareable portion. This restaurant has the fine dining feel as other Yelpers have stated. I will say the tables feel a little too close to each other though and it seemed like the waiters were bumping into the chairs a little (sorry) but overall beautiful restaurant. Valet $8 read more

The steak we had here was phenomenal. It took a few tries before we finally landed on our selection. We originally wanted the dry-aged New York steak, but it was sold out. We then ordered the dry-aged tomahawk, only for our server to return and tell us they had just sold the last one. We ultimately ended up with the Australian Wagyu Cowboy Cut, which was delicious. The sides weren't anything exciting--just typical steakhouse offerings. If you want bread for the table, it is complimentary, but you have to specifically request it, as they won't offer it. Given the amount spent, they really should include it automatically, since bread and butter are standard at most steakhouses. The service was nice, helpful, and not pushy at all. The atmosphere, however, was quite loud. It made it difficult to talk to my partner, who was sitting directly across from me. Our server even had to switch sides of the table while speaking with us because neither of us could hear clearly. Overall, I'd give this experience three stars for a $500 night. And yes, I'm rating the experience--not just the food. I don't have any real complaints about the food itself, aside from it being a bit overpriced, but if the overall experience had been better, it would have felt worth it. read more

This place has an awesome patio area which is where we had a business meeting. My work colleague and I flew in to meet with some of our clients. Hannah was our server and an excellent one at that. She was very attentive and gave great suggestions on what to order. I had oysters on the half shell and they were very fresh and delicious. Then I had the jumbo diver scallops that was over a butternut squash puree. The scallops were not overcooked and cooked perfectly. Then I ordered the truffle fries we shared at the table. These were hands down the best truffle fries I've ever had. Most restaurants use a truffle oil but this was loaded with freshly shaved truffles and were so delicious. Let's just say the entire bowl was demolished at dinner. Next time I'm back in town would love to come back to try more!! P.S. The lemon cheesecake martini was absolutely delicious. Literally tasted like a liquid lemon cheesecake! Definitely give it a try. OMGGGGGG!!!!!! read more

We went there to dine for our 40th anniversary. Husband had scallops with squash which he said was ok. I had 8oz Filet Mingon medium well. My steak was burnt on the top of the steak. I took one bite and the taste of it being burnt. I cut the whole top off and ate under it. I asked for Bernaise sauce on the side. I received a little container with white sauce with absolutely NO TASTE. When 2 of 3 waiters took my plate he looked down at the Black Burnt Steak and asked if I wanted a to go box. Seriously. I told our waiter about steak and he said, oh sorry. The price of this steakhouse and what you get definitely not worth it. Also valet parking $ 8.00. We parked on the street. I will never go back and not a good review that charges so much for the food and this is what you get!! Really VERY DISAPPOINTING! read more

My rating is within the scope of high-end "white tablecloth" restaurants. Its opening was much anticipated by us "locals". Knowing the cost would be spendy, we decided to wait a bit for them to work the kinks out. So finally after my husband had a long, arduous workday, we decided to see if we could get a reservation. Yay! They had an opening for 8:00 the night of 11 Feb 2026. First we checked the dress code. The owner had answered the question here on Yelp along the order of anything ranging from Business Casual to Formal. Good, so we dressed "nice" with real shoes, his button down shirt, and my coordinated outfit. As we drove past the side of the building, we saw a sign: Valet Parking $8.00. Sigh. Given the neighborhood, there's street parking. It felt more like a money grab to me, since parking wasn't a challenge, with the valet only saving a few steps. After we entered we were greeted by the hostess. She led us to a table for two adjacent to the bar, and handed us the two-sided menus. Very quickly, our waiter, Canan greeted us and asked what kind of water we wanted. He offered the bottled wine menu, which we took a look at. They were out of the bone-in tenderloin, which my husband wanted, so he ordered the 8oz filet mignon, the beet salad, and the sweet potato gratin. I ordered the roasted cod with miso sauce. We ordered the New Zealand sauvignon blanc from the "by the glass" menu, to have with the salad, and the Babcock Syrah to have with the main courses. The beet salad was seriously huge; a big pile of arugula with 1/2" square chunks of steamed red and golden beets and topped generously with toasted pumpkin seeds. It was delicious, although I'd have preferred a tad less of the citrus dressing. Next time I'll order it on the side or ask for a light touch. The sweet potato gratin was creative, thinly sliced with each piece almost like hasselback russets, sandwiching cheese and maybe caramelized onions and baked to gooey goodness. It had a good outer crisp on it. My fish was a large chunk about 2.5" thick with a footprint about the size of a deck of cards. It looked like it had been lightly dusted with seasoned corn starch, then seared in olive oil. It had a really nice crisp all around, without obvious breading. A swoosh of the sauce was next to it. It was a bit thick but that's nitpicking. It was sweet and savory at the same time. There were no garnishes on the plate. Just, bam, a big piece of fish. He ordered his filet mid-rare. It turned out more like medium. He was happy with that, though, as he prefers it that way anyway. It came with all the sauces he wanted. He ordered three of them. He liked the chimichurri and mustard red wine sauces. He wasn't wild about the green peppercorn sauce. Unlike some other restaurants, there was no extra charge for the sauces. He ate every bite of the perfectly cooked steak. I ended up taking home half my fish. Our waiter was very professional. I liked that he would describe offerings in terms of flavor profiles. He'd say things like, "citrus forward" instead of "oh, it's really good". So he gave us the information we needed to choose what satisfied our moods. Overall, the food and service were excellent. There was a large party of men at the front of the house. They were loud to the point of boisterous and it was very hard to have a conversation at a normal indoor-voice level. Despite the owner's dress code comment, and even when there's a posted dress code (not posted here, but implied by their self-described high-end) there always seems to be "that guy" who foils the atmosphere by wearing a hoodie and a baseball cap. I wish restaurants would refuse service to people who disrespect the culture. Bon apetít! read more

Old Oaks Steakhouse - Beet salad. Definitely sharable. - Steakhouses Near Me - Thousand Oaks, California

You absolutely have to check out this awesome new steakhouse on TO blvd! The restaurant has been completely revamped and offers amazing service, a wonderful atmosphere, and, of course, top-notch steaks. The owners have really put in the effort to make this the ultimate spot for enjoying a steak without breaking the bank. All the elements of a high-end restaurant are present. The only downside is that it can get a bit noisy, so don't expect a quiet dining experience. You can either find street parking or opt to pay $8.00 for valet parking. This is definitely a place to visit without the little ones. read more

It's always a good sign when you can smell the smoky-goodness before you even walk into a steakhouse... and Old Oaks definitely delivers on that! I started with the Gem salad, which was great! Blue cheese heavy served with smoky bacon and pickled onions - definitely my kind of salad. I also appreciated their attention to detail serving the dish with chilled forks. For my main, I went with their in-house dry-aged tomahawk ribeye. The steak itself was cooked to perfection, but I wish it had come out on a warmed plate to help maintain the temperature. Lastly, I tried their olive oil cake, which was a little dry IMO, so just ask for extra sauce like I did! Service was excellent, and the ambiance is upscale. Overall, this is a great addition to the neighborhood. Looking forward to coming back! read more

Pro's: The newly remodeled restaurant is beautiful. Our waitress was very nice. Cons: For the price, the food was very "meh". I had a KC strip, my friend had a ribeye. Our spouses split a salmon pasta dish. The ribeye was the best of all, but it was undecooked and had to be sent back. My KC strip was just OK, didn't have a lot of flavor. The salmon was dry and overcooked. We had a crab cake appetizer, it was fishy and not very good. We had to ask 3 times for bread, and another 3 times for ketchup for the fries. The total for the food plus 4 drinks came to over $400. I won't be going back. read more

Upscale steakhouse experience did not disappoint. Very friendly and attentive service. Beautiful interior although our table for two had an annoying wobble we couldn't quite mitigate. The food was excellent. Started with lobster deviled eggs and lobster bisque. Both were delicious, the bisque could have been a little richer, like maybe it didn't have quite enough cream but very generous with the lobster. Beet salad was good, could use some additional greens to complement the arugula which can by a bit much on its own. The rack of lamb was excellent. The tart cherry reduction was fantastic. Will definitely come back when we're in a spendy mood. (I liked the vibe at this place better than the more pretentious high end steakhouse down the street). read more

Absolutely not why? When mastros is down the street and they are the same price Let me explain: we wanted to try a new place so we decided to come without a reservation, we walked in to a fairly slow time, they still asked for name and number and literally buzzed immediately, for what? To capture information at the expense of a better experience? Then we were seated, nothing and I mean nothing tasted good (except truffle fries) Mushroom not good steak horrible Oysters we left half not eaten they were cloudy .. service not attentive we had to ask for everything for example for the oysters Server, and sorry to say this in this day and age, but smelled bad Steak was burned charred on outside and dry like splinters of wood. Not edible And when it came to leave, they took away the fries.. the only edible thing .. and packed the rest. It seems popular and maybe we got a bad experience, but we never had a bad one at mastros and when I pay 60$ for a steak, or more for the wagyu that was also prepared not good, I expect a decent steak I feel bad because I want more restaurants in the area but not at the expense of bad experiences read more

Old Oaks Steakhouse - Medium rare steak - Steakhouses Near Me - Thousand Oaks, California

Went for a celebration for dinner on a Thursday night. The service was excellent, without hovering. Make sure you asked for Jaime!! Ambiance was very dark and moody very cool vibe. I do think they need some soft surfaces to keep the noise down. Food was excellent as well, I highly recommend the kanas city strip steak. The best steak I have had by far. And the shoe string fries side order of asparagus. No pictures of the meal because it was delicious. read more

I saw this steakhouse under construction last year and it is finally here. A friend made a reservation for dinner and it was a busy night. The crowd was mostly older. Nice bar with a good selection of whiskey and wines. The space between each table was a little tight. There was a gentleman who played old school music the night I was there. Our server was super nice and attentive. I ordered a filet and one grilled shrimp. The filet was to die for, it tasted like butter with perfect seasoning, but not the shrimp. It didn't taste 100% fresh. The lettuce salad was fantastic, the corn dish & crispy broccolini was ok, I had better. The lobster bisque was rich but not too thick. Overall, Old Oak steakhouse is way better than BLVD steakhouse. Top three on my list for steakhouses in the Valley. I will come back. read more

My husband and I came here for a date night, and it was absolutely perfect. He ordered the steak, and I went with the lamb--both were cooked to perfection, but the lamb was truly exquisite. Every bite was flavorful, tender, and beautifully prepared. The ambiance was warm and inviting--elegant but still comfortable, making it the ideal setting for a night out. Service was excellent as well; attentive without ever being overbearing. We couldn't resist dessert, and we're so glad we didn't--it was the perfect sweet ending to an already memorable meal. Old Oaks Steakhouse is definitely a gem in Thousand Oaks. We left already talking about when we'll be back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a special night out! read more

I've tried this place a few times now, and I must say that I am not a fan. The bone marrow that was delicious on the first visit was raw and cold in the center 0/5. I switched it for the crab cake which was decent 4/5. The cream spinach is awful 1/5. We did like the sweet potato soufflé 4/5. Also, their steak sauces are lacking flavor. I tried several and didn't care for any of them 0/5. I could pay less and go to Mastros. Their food is amazing and they have live music. I will say our waitress was very kind and attentive 5/5. read more

This was my first time visiting this restaurant, entering into stunning restaurant with a huge wine selection and Bar. They have a big selection of meat that the age at the restaurant and serve one kosher steak.. We ordered some starters that were very delicious like the tuna tartare, the carpaccio beef and yellow tail for Mindish. We had different stakes that I can say that we're a very good. The sides like the sweet potato with cream is definitely a must if you visit this restaurant.. the energy and service was amazing. I will definitely come back again soon.. read more

Stepping out of my comfort zone when I have a craving for a good steak other than going to Mastro's is definitely not easy, but I am glad I did. My friend and I came in on Saturday night and this place was packed. We started with two delicious cocktails. My drink was tasty and tasted pretty strong. My friend also enjoyed her drink and she ordered another one with her meal. For the main course we opted for 45 Day dry aged bone in ribeye and bone in fillet and we also shared their puree potato and grilled asparagus. My friend and I both agreed that our meal was pretty close to the Mastro's quality but the service in this place was so much better than Mastro's. Our server (Keith) was exceptional. Even though he was super busy, he was checking on us often to make sure we were well taken care of. The owner also came by twice to our table to chat with us. All in all, we had a great time dining in and this past visit wouldn't be our last for sure. There's an $8 option for the valet parking read more

I hate to give a 1 star review but I was severely disappointed in this place. We got a special they had, a Denver cut of meat that came highly recommended from our server. The first time it came out it was so charred, neither of us could eat it. It tasted like we were licking an ash tray. So we sent it back naturally and they remade it, but it came out so salty it was inedible. My husband had to cut the top half of it off to avoid the salt and literally couldn't eat half of it. We told the restaurant but after they had remade it once we gave up. They comped us for half the price of the steak and mentioned this has been an issue others have been complaining about too. Yikes!!! Maybe pull the special from the menu if it isn't coming out edible. You don't over salt a good piece of meat!!! That's ridiculous for a $90 steak we still got charged half for! We do a good amount of fine dining in the area and won't be returning which is unfortunate. Additionally, the seared salmon sashimi was completely bland and over-seared imho. I would skip that for sure. The crab cakes were decent. The scallops were the best thing we ordered by far and I do highly recommend those. The Mac n cheese was good. The baked potato is massive!! But for the love of God, don't order the Denver!! read more

Last night, we returned for our 2nd dining experience at Old Oaks Steakhouse since our prior family birthday celebration dinner was exceptional. We were pleased to be seated in the same location as before where we felt comfortable with the ambiance. But with this being said & much to our dismay, we were disappointed with several things. Our party of 8 shared appetizers & sides...selections we had before. The double order of crab cakes were absolutely above par! (In fact my DIL ordered more for her entree.) We shared 3 orders of portobello mushroom fries which were magnificent! However, the King Crab Rolls were flavorless and much smaller than before which was heartbreaking. When asked about entree suggestions, our server proudly reiterated that since Old Oaks was a steakhouse, he would naturally steer choices toward prime aged and expertly prepared steak. Three out of 4 steaks arrived undercooked...one of the 3 was ordered medium rare and arrived rare. The other two requested medium and were served medium rare to rare in the center of the filets. Our guests refrained from complaining since they didn't want to spoil the celebration with negativity. We had to request the meat sauces at least twice before receiving them. One of our celebrants ordered the Miso Sea Bass which she enjoyed. BUT, we later realized that the miso sauce accompanying the fish was omitted. I did mention that the barley in my beef & barley soup was grossly undercooked, dry & hard. The soup broth resembled & had the consistency of beef gravy. Graciously, it was removed from our tab. One of our favorite sides...the Mac & Cheese arrived nothing like what we had before. The sauce was soupy and lacked the flavor & consistency we had known. The crispy breadcrumb topping was missing. Luckily the crispy broccolini was as delicious as ever but arrived a long time after the entrees were served. The loaded baked potatoes were enjoyable. The house made bread was piping hot and fresh but was served after the fact...adding to the disjointed serving of our meals. We all speculated that the "kitchen staff" was off of their game...misrepresenting the upscale reputation that was once presented. We do not hesitate paying top dollar for quality meals. But this time, paying 1K+ for our celebration was thoroughly disappointing. read more

First I should mention that it says on yelp Validated parking. Nope. $8 fee Nice ambiance and the staff was very good. The meal. We had several different cuts of steaks.

This restaurant is very fancy and high-class. We had a 5 o'clock reservation, which is right when they open, so it wasn't very crowded but gradually filled up as we ate. They have valet parking, although we were able to find our own parking across the street. We came as a party of 7 (plus a baby) so we had a large table to ourselves in the back. I ordered a glass of red wine to begin, and shortly after I looked over the menu we all placed our orders. They have a pretty good wine/drinks list. For my main course I ordered the seared bluefin tuna. The sides are sort of shareable, so each side is enough for 2-4 people. As a table we ordered 3 sides: broccolini, loaded baked potato, and mushrooms. The mushrooms dish was quite small compared to the others and would probably just be enough for 2 or maybe 3 people, but even so, we had enough food for the whole table. The waiter seemed like he was pushing us to order more. Even though we had several appetizers plus the 3 sides, he kept saying, "The sides aren't all that big. You might want one more." It ended up being just perfect. The loaded potato was huge and it was plenty for us! I thought the bluefin tuna was decent, but not my favorite thing ever. I knew it was just seared but somehow it seemed a bit to raw for my liking- I think because it seemed like it wasn't even warm in the middle so the sear barely reached into the interior. I love sushi/raw fish but eating a large hunk of raw fish just feels very different than eating lots of small perfectly cut pieces of raw fish. So it was good but I probably would get something different next time. On to the dessert course! We ordered a few desserts, and again, I felt like our waiter was pressuring us into ordering more. My brother got one of their cakes and the waiter said he strongly recommended ice cream to go with it since it was a bit dry. We had some and thought it was perfectly fine on its own, although we did end up ordering the ice cream too. I had the chocolate sponge cake and it was fantastic. This was overall a nice experience and definitely fine dining! read more

We hoped for more... Ambiance: Visually rich and comfortable, but our table caught the strong smell of sewage from outside whenever the door was opened. Service: Our server, Dan, was friendly and attentive. Great job, but didn't respond to the raw meat I'd shown him when clearing the table. Food: Of the ten guests, only two ordered steak. The other 8 thoroughly enjoyed their meals. Sadly, especially given this is a steakhouse, both orders had meat that was grossly undercooked. The 12 oz filet, ordered med-rare, had a 2x2x2" center that was refrigerator cool and raw. It looked like and had the texture of raw liver. Will not be returning !! read more

Ate here tonight.. came in from the SFV. Service was good. Presentation was a little sloppy. Order the Wagu rib eye. Came on a plane white plate we ordered medium rare and the blood was runny on the plate. Made it unappealing. Maybe rest the steak and then plate it. Hamachi was very good.. but maybe slice it a little thinner you could probably do two of them with what you are doing not. And you probably don't need to change the price. read more
