The Oak Table & Bar

A hidden gem!!! All of the food was phenomenal and the drinks are homemade to order. The bartender makes her own infused liquors(we tried the pine gin and it was great). Pictured is the Bees Knees. I also had a delicious matcha drink. For dinner I chose the four course tasting option. Every dish was delicious. Such unique flavors and items( Like the boar stir fry). Overall a great experience! The service was great too. I last minute requested a reservation and they were able to seat us at the bar. Love the atmosphere here, very casual place, yet spectacular food. You can taste the hard work from both the bartender and the chef in the food& drinks. Definitely will be back if I find myself in the area again.

We had an amazing time at this restaurant! It's small, but has a great atmosphere and excellent service. We sat at the chef's table by the kitchen, and were able to ask about ingredients, and just generally converse with chef/owner Eli while eating. Portions are small compared to other restaurants (which they tell you upon seating), but they offer a reasonably priced tasting menu, with an option to share, that allows you to sample from a variety of courses. My husband and I shared said tasting menu, and were perfectly full after all the courses (plus dessert, of course). The menu changes daily, which may be inconvenient for some, but we found it a nice change of pace. Lacey also had great recommendations for drinks when I couldn't decide between cocktails. The honey rose margarita was what I started with, and oh my goodness it was delicious. I always find it a good sign when a restaurant has regulars to the point that the chef/owner knows their names, which we found to be the case here. We will definitely be going back!

This is an experience. Going to this place you need to recognize that this is an authentic experience between you and food that comes fresh and is prepared fresh and fantastic. Bring your open mind and take in the spices the aroma and the deliciousness that awaits you. Stop expecting this place to be a regular restaurant. It's not! I wouldn't want it to be a regular restaurant. There are plenty of them in Augusta. If you want to experience unique and quality. Try this place!

My husband and I were doing errands in Augusta and decided to stay for dinner at the end of the day. I got online and inquired about a reservation and received a call back from the owner within 30 minutes. A large group had reserved the main dining areas but there were still seats at the chef's table in the kitchen. We decided to go for it and were not disappointed, to say the least. The food was excellent, as was were the wine selections. What made it a great experience was talking with the chef and learning about the food we were enjoying. This is my our new favorite restaurant in Maine. Don't hesitate to try it.

Went there last night with 7 family members who hadn't gotten together for awhile. The concept is to choose 4 dishes from different food categories which gives you an opportunity to try things without committing yourself to one large entrée The food was all very good and interesting. The staff was pleasant and efficient. Eli was charming I recommend the Oak Table and Bar

This is the first meal we have at Maine in my East Coast trip. We didn't expect such a fine dining experience from a small restaurant. My favorite dishes are the pork belly and the duck breast. The pork belly is very crispy and still juicy inside. It is not greasy at all. The soya sauce is infused with other herbs, honey in a well balanced way. The greens makes the pork belly more fresh. The duck breast is the best duck breast I have in my life so far. The Chef Whitney said she used expresso power to marinate the duck breast, giving it a roasted flavor. In addition, the duck breast is very soft and juicy. I can cut the breast easily. The leek cream at the bottom elevated the complexity of the dish. The apple aside makes it very fresh. All the rest of the dishes are very good! Love this place. We talked to the Chef Whitney. She said she visits the local store every day to pick the best food and adjust the menu accordingly. So the menu is changing a little bit everyday. The food are from local farms. The food texture is great. The taste is very balanced and matched with the ingredients.

Had dinner here last night for my birthday. What an incredible restaurant! The food was spectacular and the service was wonderful. We decided to go with their four course tasting option as recommended by our server/bartender and it was perfect. Great cocktails too! I only wish I had saved room for dessert but there’s always next time. If you are looking for a nice laid-back atmosphere with food that will blow you away this is your place.
