We love having Red Oak at any time of the day. Breakfast, brunch, lunch, linner, dinner. It's all fantastic and they BEST fried chicken in town. read more

My husband was too mad to leave a review. First we waited for a good while to be waited on. Finally got drinks (yes drinks only) unsweetened tea & coffee. Had to ask for a menu. Had to ask for refills. People were getting up checking on their food. Some walked out. Our food took so long we left a twenty dollar bill on the table and walked out. DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU ARE HUNGRY. You'll end up knowing one of your arms off while you WAIT & WAIT & WAIT SOME MORE. I HAD to give it at least one star but in reality that's one star too much. read more

Had a great time with old friends. Brandon was the best waiter I've had in an extremely long time, very courteous and thoughtful.

Not a ton of restaurants to choose from, but this was mediocre at best. 100 degrees outside and not much cooler in! Ordered rock shrimp - OK but nothing special. Ordered crab cakes for main and specifically told my waitress not to bring them together. Second bite of shrimp and - bam - there's the crab cake. I asked them to take the away and they just set them on a counter to later deliver them luke warm. Only reason for 3 stars instead of 1 is that the food was not horrible - not great - but not horrible. Rolled the dice tonight and lost read more

Come for the food. It's amazing. I've been here a few times and the food never disappoints. But hope for better service than my latest experience. We sat in an almost empty restaurant for over 15 minutes and nobody ever came to serve us so we left. Very disappointing. read more

We loved the whole experience. The food was spectacular. Everyone greeted us were extremely friendly and professional. Mine wasn't cooked right and thank you to Cassie for sending back before bringing out to me. Really great atmosphere too a must try! read more

Shit service. Was seat promptly but never got service or acknowledged. Waited 15 min with an empty restaurant

Amazing environment, food is awesome, and the service is top-tier. Would recommend to anybody.

Atmosphere and vibe is top tier.. started off with an appetizer called crispy rock shrimp, it didn't stand a chance it was sooo good! My main meal was the Prime Rib Quesadilla's, I didn't regret it ! Everything was so good and fresh. I wish they had a location in the Houston and Southeast Texas region, it would definitely do numbers. read more

Brunch Review. Service was great. Super nice people. I got the prime rib hash and it was ok, but not much flavor and was small. There were no sides, and for $14, toast or a biscuit would have been nice. My wife's chicken and waffles looked delicious and was big enough. I think it had way more flavor than my hash. We'd be willing come back and try some new things. read more

Such a nice atmosphere. The food was good and I enjoyed very much. The salad that came as a side was amazing. The salmon and broccoli were well done. Staff friendly. Cassie was very nice read more

I love this place! The bartender Noah treated us like family! You don't see this type of service anymore at all!

Hostess was having an off night. Might consider trading in the large 6 tops for more 4 tops and put picnic tables outside. Great food. Filet mignon received high praise as did the quesadillas. Medium rare prime rib was more medium medium and could use some flavor in the meat itself instead of relying on the au jus. Banana cream pie made it all better! read more

The menu was small but the food was fantastic. Our server was Allison and she was wonderful, so helpful since it was our first time there . The recommendations she gave us were fantastic. We would definitely go there again. read more

The food and service was amazing!! Brandon was our waiter. He did a great job! We had a large party and everyone was impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. We had a great time and can't wait to come back! read more

Great breakfast spot! What a charming little kitchen in Odessa. Nice variety, great service and ambiance. My husband and I both ordered the huevos rancheros (we are connoisseurs) and it was delicious! I noticed people from all walks of life, including a girls group enjoying what looked like amazing mimosas in quality wine glasses. I can't wait to go back! read more

Great meal tonight. I had the Kale salad and three of my coworkers had the french dip with peanut sauce. One of thrm had the fish tacos. Everyone rated the food and experience between 4.5 and 5 stars. Good drink prices and great service. Will be back. read more

Delicious fresh food made quickly and very nice presentation. Great staff and modern yet warm atmosphere!

There's so much wrong that I don't know where to start. First of all, they have zero details on their menu as to what you're getting. For example, they had 'Paloma' on the cocktail menu. Traditionally that is grapefruit juice with tequila. Some people use grapefruit soda. I actually like a combination of the two. So, these guys use pomegranate liquor and the cheapest crap tequila on the market, Juarez. Who tries to be high end and leading edge culinary contenders but uses crap liquor. For $10 that is a complete ripoff. For you to get an agave tequila it is minimum $15. That's Maui type prices....IN ODESSA. Then, I order the nachos. Once again, nothing of description. It comes out with mayonnaise on top. Who on the F puts mayonnaise on nachos. Once I start eating the nachos I realize the chips are chewy af. I assumed stale but the manager told me that they cook them daily and they must be under cooked. That makes sense but they were terrible. The nachos were also horribly bland...perfect for mayonnaise. Beans had no flavor, chicken had no flavor....and then there was mayonnaise! They were actually the worst nachos I can remember ever eating. My jaws ached like I ate a big bag of beef jerky because of how chewy the chips were. I only ate about half of my order and noped out on the rest. The manager was nice enough to to knock 50% off even though I didn't ask for that. I feel bad leaving a bad review for that reason but I can't take bribes in good conscience knowing that their 4 1/2 stars is a farce. I should've went to Taco Villa like I originally intended to, that's always a safe bet read more

Mexico City Enchiladas with Egg on top with a Fresh Squeezed IPA.l! Best enchiladas I've ever had and I have had a bunch as a native Texan. Beautiful night in the biergarten outside. What a great experience in Odessa!! Come and get it! read more

This was wonderful. We were going for cork and pig, but it was a 35 minute wait. They suggested Red Oak. They steered us right. Terrific atmosphere. Great food. Even better wine. We had the pig pizza and a Pinot noir. So yummy. I live in Lubbock, but would purposely drive to Odessa to eat here again. read more

Do not let the pictures fool you. Food taste is lacking. We had the trio dip....standard guac, decent pimento cheese, and smoked trout dip was a salt bomb. Then we had the deviled eggs.....standard run of the mill potluck office party deviled eggs. Next was the Cesar salad......okish...lots of mustard/vinegar in the dressing......next... I ordered the 29$ crab cakes.....old, cheap, canned crab or at least VERY smelly crab. My lunch mates both ordered rotisserie chicken....both chicken dishes were over cooked. Seasoned well but dry like jerky....one guy had mashed potatoes that were really good just dry....the other guy had a roasted acorn squash and it was absolutely amazing. Food presentation was very well done, restaurant is really well decorated, and service was very good. read more

I have been here multiple times. Never had a bad experience. The service is top notch as is the food. The only things that could improve would be the size of the venue (it is probably intentionally small though) and the prices are a tad on the high side (but well worth it). read more

Love this place. Fast customer services. Very friendly. Place is clean . Food portion is prefect and everything taste great. Love their drink as well . No complaints read more

This place was so good. Me and my boyfriend have been trying to find an amazing breakfast place. And this place is tucked away which seems like people don't know about but can I just say this place is the cutest reminded us of back home in California. Food was on point you would think at first it wasn't enough to fill you but it was more than enough like we are so stuffed right now. All the waiters were amazing and nice made sure your glass was always full. Which is usually the problem we have finding a restaurant near us. I would say if you come for brunch get there Lemon Ricotta Pancakes and Prime Rib Hash. So amazing!!!!! read more

A casual, more hidden version of cork & pig with a nice covered patio and also loft seating. Berry mojito is the best, paired with trio dip and fish tacos! Simple menu but everything on it is well thought out and always delicious. Pizzas are great and you can see them being cooked in their pizza oven. Good service and usually a shorter wait than cork & pig if you didn't make reservations. Quieter and cozier than cork & pig but also makes a great spot for brunch, lunch, a casual dinner, or a nicer date night! read more

Ordered carryout from the restaurant. Took several tries for someone to even pick up the phone - once picked up, it must have been too loud on their end and had difficulty communicating my order (though I could hear them fine). Baja fish tacos were subpar. Fish was overcooked and the extras for the taco were miniscule. Prime rib was good, though portion size was lacking - though this may be because they didn't forgot the side with the item. Not only did I have to repeat what I wanted for the side 5 times because they couldn't hear, the fact that they charge a carryout fee (both Red Oak and their sister restaurant Cork & Pig do this) and screw up the order is unacceptable. read more

I had Sunday Brunch with a friend during the COVID pandemic. Our server wore her mask properly the entire time we were there and we were seated outdoors with diners far enough away from one another to be safe. The chicken & waffles had a good flavor but the waffle was cold as if it wasn't fresh. I'd've preferred a bit more heat to the chicken or an option to make it spicy but it was still good. The yummy mimosa pitcher was just enough to get my friend and I feeling good without getting us tipsy. We had our server pick a bottle of white for us and her selection was just right. The vibe of the place was nice and I'd definitely eat there again. read more

Excellent attention, waiters are great, food very gourmet and tasty, I love this place read more

Red Oak Kitchen - New American Near Me - Odessa, Texas

Make sure to enter through the south end of the building. We went in through the north & had to walk through the restaurant to get to the hostess stand. To start off we ordered the trio dip, which had a scoop of guacamole, a scoop of pimento cheese dip, & a scoop of smoked trout dip. They were good but my favorite is the pimento dip. For our entrees my husband had the New Mexico burger with a fried egg & I had the Ahi Tuna Salad. My husband's burger looked good but the Ahi Tuna Salad was absolute heaven. Our server wqs Demetri & he was very knowledgeable on the food & pleasant. We can't wait to go back for another date night & to try something different. read more

Very good food! The high modern atmosphere, and great food does not differ from Cork & Pig. The price does not differ as well, so don't be shocked. The staff was kind & eager to help with anything! read more

Cork and Pig is my favorite restaurant in Midland/Odessa so my husband and I decided to give its sister restaurant a a try for breakfast. So glad we did! Excellent service, excellent food, and a cozy ambience. We've been twice in one week and we live about 30 minutes away if that says anything about its quality. We've had the chicken and waffles and prime rib hash and both were so good (we basically inhaled them as soon as they came out from the kitchen). The vanilla latte was definitely worth the $4.50 as well. One of my favorite things about CPT Market and Cork and Pig is the cozy feel and smell from the wood fire oven. We came on a Saturday around 10 and there was plenty of seating, which is a major plus in this town (so obviously the secret isn't out yet). The prices are also fairly reasonable for the quality and quantity of food (especially for Midland/Odessa). read more

Red Oak Kitchen - Prime rib hash - New American Near Me - Odessa, Texas

Red Oak is a quality over quantity restaurant. It's not as big as most restaurants and the menu is rather small, but you get scenic views anywhere you sit and the food they do have is amazing. I've yet to find one dish I wasn't completely satisfied with. The only issue is the wait so I try to avoid peak times. read more

our waiter is a very nice person and treats us like adults when we are 14 15 on a date

the staff is typically very good. the service is what makes this place. it is a 5/5 for its area, all told. you have to seek out the good things and stick to them. i want to mention a dish ", that was the calabacitas. the zucchini had been thinly sliced on a mandolin then sautéed in olive oil and capers plus like a pico de gallo. very good. the chicken and mashed potatoes on the children's menu is good. maybe i am not their target demographic read more

Great environment, not too loud and very clean. The food is fantastic and unique. The service is excellent. It's a weekly stop for us.

Excellent service and the food was prepared exactly as ordered. 3 of us ordered the special surf and turf. The surf was a fantastic crab cake and the turf a delicious and tender 5oz filet. The filet was cooked to perfection, hats off to the kitchen. Our service was incredible, a young server named Nok (sp?) was delightful and attentive. Our group had a fantastic time, great conversation, and look forward to coming back soon. read more

This establishment is now called the Red Oak Kitchen to emphasize the fact it is a restaurant and not truly a market. We had Sunday brunch and the food was great and a very relaxing atmosphere. We ate out on one of the patio tables with an umbrella. I really enjoyed the hash made with steak plus the waffles. Sometimes you can leave a restaurant feeling like the service, food, atmosphere or value for money was lacking but not here; all of these points were good. read more

Disgusting dinner experience. So much broken vehicle window glass in the parking lot. Saw at least 5 parking spots filled with glass. Took a table in the enclosed patio. The table was full of flies. There was food on the ground that attracted them there. The cocktail I ordered had little to no alcohol in it. We ordered the rock shrimp appetizer, but it never arrived until we finished our meals. The waitress never refilled our drinks. The steak salad was very small and they were out of the cheese on top. The enchiladas were very good. Even though there was no egg on it like I read others received. We won't be back here again. read more
