Not bad, wings were marginal and the fries were cold and stale. Roomy place with lots of TVs maybe good place to catch a game. Good selection of beers on tap. Service marginal read more

Came for happy hour last week and had some happy hour drinks and apps. Flatbreads were so good

Visited on a Friday afternoon and we started off with a beer each from their vast menu. We were waited on promptly and with a smile. The ambiance here allowed us to have an in depth conversation amongst ourselves but we were also included in the family feeling with everyone else who was enjoying a late afternoon snack and merriment. The PB&J burger hit the spot! Natalie is the best! She went out of her way to make sure our afternoon was perfect. She sent us soaring in to the weekend with kindness, personality and genuine care. Hard to find good food, good people, good ambiance and good beer all in one spot. Twisted Oak has it! 10/10 read more

First time experience here, as we walked in there was a slight dewy smell but we stopped noticing it after a while. Went on a Tuesday with a party of 16 people so we sat at the biggest table there, service surprisingly was great, and the food AMAZING! Every single plate that came to our table looked good! Everyone had a great time and said they'd definitely be back! read more

Great Service by our waitress!!! Burgers and Beer were the best. When I'm back in town (Outlets) I'll definitely be going back for lunch or dinner. Kudos to the entire staff!!!!! read more

I decided to try the Twisted Oak Tavern today. This watering hole has a great feel inside and outside. Tiffany (my server and bartender) let me know that Twisted Oak hosts live music on Friday and Saturday evenings. The decor is unique with reclaimed wood tastefully placed and flat panel tv monitors in good supply. I ordered a Barbeque Salmon and Beet Salad to go with Tiffany's signature Long Island Iced Tea. The salmon was prepared full of flavor and appropriate textures. The Long Island was mixed to perfection. I have to one-up Goldilocks - everything was much, much better than "just right." For dessert, Tiffany presented a Crème Brûlée (Yummers) accompanied with her special Tiffany Imbibing Creation (It's so good you gotta be kidding me!) to drink. Before leaving, I paid the bill with (what I believe is a TIP suitable for Tiffany) and noticed Twisted Oak is a pet-friendly establishment. Why should all Fifis and Fidos wait in the car while all the Hildas and Gregs have all the fun? When you get a chance, stop by and see Tiffany. She's absolutely the best! read more

I normally love this place. I got a drink at the bar, and then the bartenders just walked by me for 15 minutes not asking 4 my order. I was going 2 walked out, but I really didn't want to go home & cook. Terrible service and looked at me like it was my fault. The food is consistently good, so I decided 2 stay. Next time I'll get it 2 go. Trying 2 force myself 2 get out, this experience needs lots of improvement. read more

Good tap list, open to a reasonable time. Would go back and have been back. Had a great time!

I'm getting married today in Camarillo and I picked twisted oak tavern to have our rehearsal dinner here. Jeff the owner was so easy to work with and plan the party. Our servers Julie and Sydney were phenomenal!!! I've been in the hospitality industry for 18 years and have an obnoxiously high expectation for service and they surpassed my expectations. Food was delicious and plenty of options for beer, wine and liquor. Only beer they need to add is Far Field and their beer selection would be complete! We had a private back patio area that was perfect for a large party. Everything was perfect and I'm excited to go back soon for dinner and drinks. read more

All aspects of the service was very slow. When my burger arrived, it was not prepared as ordered. It took a long time to receive the replacement. It was wrong also. The second replacement also took a long time. Everyone at the table was full completed eating before I received my meal. The manager did not come out and apologize and they did not comp the burger. read more

Amazing place! we visited this place due to, our daughter has vball practices 3x a week in this city and stumbled upon twisted oak. cute and ambiance is nice, fairly lit dimmed areas. drinks are great food is amazing and staffs are friendly!! read more

We had a big party after the art show and this place was recommended. We all ordered a ton of food & drinks. The Brussels sprouts were fabulous. The Twisted Fries were yummy. The Mac & cheese balls were good but the sauce was spicy. The spinach artichoke dip was yummy but too runny. My guy and I split the chimichurri steak sandwich & the Cuban sandwich. There was hardly any chimichurri sauce on that sandwich. The Cuban was better. And they nickel & dimed us for sauces(per the menu). We all split the key lime cheesecake which was just ok, not very limey and the donut bread pudding which was super good. It was a long meal almost 3 hours. But I think the shift change of the servers lengthened it out or the lack of staff. We did have to wait quite awhile to order dessert and get our check. read more

Service outstanding! Food exceptional! Prices spit on! Quick on and off the freeway and worth the stop and bypassing fast food

I am visiting from Boston. We received excellent service. Our server Julie and her team delivered great customer service. My family and I will definitely come back. Thank you read more

Food and service were amazing! Beau helped us have a great date night together by providing amazing service! Thanks twisted oak!

At first glance we were "uh ohh" mode. The building where Twisted Oak was looked pretty quiet (not a lot of patrons). Upon our arrival we were greeted by the hostess. She immediately sat us down. The tables were 1/2 capacity with a large group in the private area. You could smell the food being cooked and it smelled soooo good! The interior was kind of eclectic. Waitress Sydney took our order. We ordered the thick sliced Ruben, and pork belly appetizer, Sydney recommended the balsamic dip for our pork belly. Our order came out pretty quick. The Ruben was looking good and the fries were sooo delicious. We then tried the pork belly appetizer, I totally agree with our waitress, the balsamic was so good. When we finished our meal the restaurant got busy, we know why. THE FOOD When I'm in the area I now know WHERE I'm stopping Twisted Oak Tavern and Gastropub read more

Can't believe I never finished this review! Well, better late than never right? I visited Twisted Oak on my way home from Anaheim in August 2022. I wanted to get some stamps on my CA Hop Passport, so I made the trek out to Camarillo. And it was definitely worth it! This place is located in Downtown Camarillo in an old building with some much character. The place is huge but beautiful inside. It was a weekday lunchtime, so there wasn't a huge crowd, but I bellied up to the bar (which is gorgeous btw) to order. Since I was there to get a stamp on my passport I had to have a beer or two. I started off with their stout... it was very well done. It was slightly sweet but not too sweet like many I've had more recently. And I also had the Mexican Lager with my meal and that was nice and refreshing to balance out the rich burger I ordered. The selection is endless, but once I realized there was a burger with a bun made out of mac and cheese, I knew I couldn't order anything else! And it did not a disappointment. It was HUGE, and I was only able to eat half of it. I begrudgingly had to decline a box to take it home since home was another 6 hours away. Overall, I would be back if I was in the area. read more

Good drinks, nice atmosphere, and food that is so good, my wife and I are already contemplating another 1.5 hour drive from home for another visit because there is still plenty to try on their menu! The braised short rib was amazing, and if you come in while it is still Oak-toberfest (Server Jonah made that joke and I thought it was perfect), you need to try the pork schnitzel with the mushroom gravy, it was spectacular. read more

We eat at Twisted Oak fairly often. We just had a great meal and an attentive server (Sydney) last night. Pricing was in line or better than other options in Camarillo. Food was really good. Also, special mention for the Creme Brule. It was excellent. read more

I've been to Twisted Oak twice now and I'll keep coming back. One day I'll dine in their super cute back patio. I've had their Chicken & Waffle bites twice now and can't rave about it enough.

Twisted Oak Tavern - Chicken & Chicken N Waffle Bites - American Near Me - Camarillo, California

Service and ambiance here is great! Our waitress Sydney was very attentive and kind. The beer/wine selection is excellent, but the food was just okay. For an appetizer we got potato skins which were mediocre, & we both got an entree from their weekly specials menu. The tomato soup/grilled cheese was awesome as the soup was very flavorful, but their chicken parmesan alfredo pasta was excessively soupy and the noodles seemed slightly undercooked. So it seems like a hit or miss for the food items. Also, their iced tea was very watered down and had barely any flavor which was disappointing. Overall, I would come here again and try different menu items but I did have a good experience with the service and some of the food. read more

Overall cute place but I was disappointed with the service and food. Walked in and we got seated pretty quickly, but then it took forever just to get a menu. I don't understand why such meh service when it was early and not crowded. My pizza was good but the crust was kind of hard and they were stingy with the fries. Normally I will take some fries from my hubby's plate, but this time I didn't even bother because I felt bad on how little he got. Anyway with all the completion around I doubt we will be back. read more

Solid good service, even with a large group! They were able to get us a table for 8 on a Friday night quickly which we very much appreciated. We were happy to wait if needed. We ordered various entrees but found the wedge salad, nachos and the special of the day French dip sandwich to be the best of our choices. The food was good but not mind blowing, but the selection was great. The desserts looked amazing so we will have to come back for that. Parking was easy but can get full! Drink and cocktail list had choices for everyone in the group. We will be back! read more

We were looking for a dinner spot, this place was open and their space looked pretty neat. AMBIANCE: Parking: Street parking and plaza parking. Seating: Inside the seating room for maybe about 20 people and 6 groups. Feels: It's on the strip of Old Town/Downtown Camarillo. It's a charming spot with a lot of eateries and everyday stores. The spot itself is pretty fun. There are TVs inside if you want to watch sports and all that jazz. There's also outdoor seating with heat lamps if needed. Great catching a game or hanging out with a group of friends. FOOD: PB&J Burger & Fries (Recommend) This was pretty fun. You have your old fashion charred beef patty with a sweet and savory kick of peanut butter and jam. The bacon provided another good savory crisp to it. The fries were flavored and had a good crunch. Buffalo Cauliflower (Recommend) Juicy, flavorful and marinated with seasoned oil. It was crunchy but also soft, not like chicken but I enjoyed the buffalo sauce flavors. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Great! Fun people and pretty great service. TL; DR OVERALL: 4 Stars. Great selections, good food, and a pleasant atmosphere. For a place to kick back, this is a good spot. I enjoy the vibes and the location as well. TIPS: * Check out their happy hour menu! read more

I've been to Twisted Oak twice now and both times I left feeling pretty underwhelmed. I want to love this place as it's a great location, the bar is big and inviting, and truthfully the staff have always been nice. I just think that sometimes the service can be a little "off" and the food just hasn't been that good. Both times I've come to Twisted Oak it wasn't too busy inside and I've always come during lunch. The inside is impressively large and I've always liked the look of the bar. The menu is pretty big and I appreciate the options and price point. Another plus is the servers have always been really nice! From the host/hostess, severs, and bartenders I feel like everyone was nice and willing to strike up a conversation. It's more in my opinion just a lack of training and some professionalism that trips them up which is why I have trouble ranking higher then a three. Some examples were the first time I came here we had a male server and he was very sweet and friendly. However, despite it not being really busy we had to flag him down multiple times for every little thing, water refills, sauces we needed, and the check. I figured it was an off day and was willing to come back. The second time we just came we had a super bubbly and nice hearted lady who was serving us. However, the overall professionalism was lacking. For example she made some awkward comments about how she didn't want to work the day we came in but because it ended up being "busy" she was happy because the day was going fast. I was like ummm okay? She said this not in a rude way either, like she was smiling and literally just saying what came to mind. Was strange. Also another really specific example was I asked this waitress if they had any flavored iced teas and she said that they technically did have a passion ice tea or something like that but that "it wasn't brewed and would take a long time to brew If I wanted it". I was like, okay never mind. I could tell she wasn't being snobby or anything, I just thought it was odd to acknowledge that something that is on your menu isn't prepped for the day and would be an inconvenience to make? Or maybe she was just being sweet and trying to make sure I knew the wait time for an iced tea might be too long, but again, why even offer it then? So these are just some examples were the servers were nice but I also felt like the vibes were too casual and not really my ideal kind of service when going out to dine at a spot I don't consider "a dive". Lastly the food has always been just "okay". Yet to find something that I really loved and would come back for. The best dish I had here was a wedge salad but even then I'd rank it 3/5. I had a bacon cheeseburger here once and it was just average. Also I included a picture as my mom ordered nachos and they were disappointingly dry and lacking ingredients/toppings. She had to ask for a side of cheese to add because most bites were completely bare or any sauce or toppings. She said she wouldn't be back and after two lackluster visits I kind of feel the same way. I'd be willing to give another try for happy hour or cocktails but keeping in mind the service and not wanting to spend a lot of money on the main entrees and such. I read some really good reviews. It seems like they are doing something's right and happy to hear my yelpie peers have had some good experiences ranking 4-5 stars, I'm just not sold on this place yet. read more

Marginal food, rude bartender. Came there for some dessert the other day and ordered at the bar. Nothing big, a couple slices of pie. The gal running the bar was disinterested at best, but that's ok. She brought us our drinks out our check down, I signed it and left a tip, and then the wait began. 20 minutes later I asked if she might be able to check on our alices of pie because it had been a while. She said "I'm stuck here and too busy to do anything about it." I was shocked to say the least. Fortunately for me she also had been "too busy" to pick up our check so I zeroed out the tip and just resigned myself to wait. Food came a out 10 min later so probably 30 min in total after ordering two slices of pie. Food was "fine." Nothing special. (Edit: Seemed to us to be standard Sysco pies but the management says that it's all made in house. Since I don't know any differently I'm going to have to retract that assertion in fairness. ) Spent $34 total for those two slices and a beverage. Could have gone to Costco and bought two entire pies of better quality for less. I could have enjoyed the food if we were treated nicely. Someone else we were with ordered the coconut shrimp by the way, and said it was very good, but again it seemed to me to be a frozen product. (edit: Managment says it's all made in house so again I'm going to have to defer to that and believe what they say.) As I said, it really wasn't bad at all and the place is really pretty. It was more about the service than anything else. I mean let's be real...with few exceptions, anything you can get dining out you can eat at home for a quarter of the price, so the whole reason for going out is the service and experience. read more

Just a quick stop that looked interesting on my way home. Turned out to be a great choice! Diablo Chicken Sandwich is spicy and would not recommend if you are not a friend of the burn. Added the twisted fries, which the sauce is amazing.. Both plate items were served to perfection, hot off the press and ready to digest! Keep this place on your radar if you love closer by. read more

Hubby and I had an early dinner at Twisted Oak. The food and martini's were delicious. I ordered a Twisted Oak burger and an espresso martini. Hubby had the West Coast Cuban sandwich and a gin martini with Sapphire. All were wonderful. The service was top notch and friendly. The ambiance is adorable. The decor and seating was amazing. I highly recommend this establishment. read more

Just had dinner here. Sat at the bar. Was pleasantly surprised to see almost the spirits listed on the menu--it's nice to see the choices. I'm usually a Jameson Irish whiskey drinker--it's delicious, and available at almost every bar and restaurant in the land (my recent visit to Outback Steakhouse in Stevenson Ranch notwithstanding). I sat at a high-top in the bar area. An added surprise was to find Redbreast on offer! So I ordered one. I had the hot pretzel (which was served piping hot), then salmon salad (delicious), and flourless chocolate cake. The entire time I was served by the bartender, who managed to take care of me while keeping the other bar patrons happy. He did a great job. I will definitely come back. read more

Although the service was excellent and the food was good, I left very disappointed. When we looked at the extensive beer menu it was hard for my wife to decide, so she asked whether there were beer flights. The waiter said yes, so we each got one. After we were done I went to wash my hands, and when I returned my wife was paying, and the bill was over $100 including tax and tip. I asked her, "how is that possible for 2 sandwiches and 2 samplers?" It turns out that were were charged for each individual taster, and not one price for the flight. The itemized bill even said, "beer sampler: $0.00" and then listed each 5 ounce taste for $5 all the way to $6.25, so it was roughly $45 for two flights. The regular pint price was in the $7 to $9 range, so we got 2 1/2 for the price of 5. Had the waiter simpler said, "we can do flights, but the price is the same as 4 samplers," we would have gone a different route. I've been to scores of breweries and brew pubs, and this is the first time I've seen flights priced this way. Using beer terminology, it left a very bitter taste in my mouth. read more

Nice, clean, casual space to grab a cocktail and some pub grub. Good amount of parking. Lots of craft brews on tap for the beer lover. Place was busy when we came, service was friendly but a little delayed. Enjoyed our cocktails, beer, roasted brussels sprouts, Saigon sliders, blue cheese bacon burger and french fries. read more

This location has been so many mediocre things that when TOT&B went in there, I just crossed my fingers. Well, they've proven themselves and I'm very happy about that! We've come by many times now and have always been greeted promptly, asked where we prefer to sit (love this and the fact that they have a lot of seating). We usually go for game days that the locals might not like (SF fans!) but they are super accommodating with our requests for a channel change on the TV (they have quite a few)! I love the interior and that it's not super bright. Big wide open space and you don't feel cramped. We've had a lot of great things here: coconut shrimp, mac n cheese bites, sandwiches, burgers (the black bean burger was probably one of the best I've ever had but I'm not sure if you can still sub this as I no longer see it on the menu). The thing that I anticipate the most is their desserts! OUTRAGEOUSLY good. The donut bread pudding, Oreo cheesecake, tres leches, lava cake... they always have us fighting over the last bite. They often do specials so I recommend looking up the menu online beforehand (they feature week by week, typically). We will keep coming back for game days and obsessing over the dessert! I highly recommend giving this place a try! read more

Went there on 5/16 for a rehearsal dinner. Our two waitresses who served us were absolutely fantastic! After we closed out we went to the bar for some drinks. My group and I were waiting at the bar for a little bit so we decided to go to the other side of the bar to get some service. When the bartender came out we asked if we could get some drinks going. He had an attitude and muttered rudely "I'll be right with you" while rolling his eyes pouring a beer. After noticing that we decided to take our business elsewhere. As a GM of another establishment I found this to be extremely unprofessional. 5 stars for the fantastic waitresses on our party but negative stars for the blonde long haired male bartender who clearly needs to learn some customer service. Very disappointing. read more
