You walk into a sports bar, let them know you have reservations for Vacancy, they take you downstairs to this quaint little lounge. We sat at the bar, the chairs we so comfy, and we reviewed the menu. I ordered a bananas foster martini, which tasted just like the dessert! Hubby ordered the 18 hour old fashioned. Since we had some time until our next reservation we ordered a second round here. This time I got the banana bread old fashioned and hubby got the tiramisu martini. Both drinks tasted like the dessert. They served really good drinks, the bartenders were super friendly and the presentation was great. We would stop back in.

I was confused why they wouldn't let walk ins come down to the bar as first come first serve because the entire bar was wide open even though we had to wait for a half hour for a table, but I guess that's just the way they do things.

Talking about the same things they talked about yesterday because, well, it is Akron. The husband and wife team owners are very nice and friendly. They are, however, new to the bar owner game and have some things to learn. Taking a class of Bar Owning 101 should help. If you visit Redstone and the owner (wife) is your bartender and you order a cocktail, be prepared to help her with it. My buddy ordered a vodka tonic and he had to help her with the ingredients. I know, I know, vodka tonic. She was super sweet and with a bit of help she made a quality vodka tonic. Becky and I were having bottled beer/canned White Claw, so no issues. The next time we are in Akron, you can be sure we will visit Redstone again. $2.75 for a bottle of beer, are you kidding me? My last beer was at happy hour price, $2.00! Are you friggin' serious right now? Two bucks for a beer? Hell yeah we'll be back to Redstone! We can't afford not to! Yuengling!

They have an extensive menu a very interesting and fun drinks that I haven't seen elsewhere. Many of the drinks reminded me of something that I may find at a tiki bar. Although we did not try any of these drinks this time, I would definitely come back to explore the menu further if I was looking to have drinks with a friend. The real reason we came here was because my friend had heard that a woman comes on Monday nights and serves homemade Thai dumplings. This was in fact, true, and we split two orders of dumplings. We tried the traditional dumplings with meat, and the vegetarian dumplings. We received.Five dumplings per order, that were served quickly. The price was fairly reasonable. We both agreed that these dumplings were very good,. My friend enjoyed The traditional dumplings the best, whereas I loved the vegetarian ones even though I typically don't enjoy vegetarian options. The servers checked on us frequently and left us with a small picture of water so that we did not need to keep asking for refills. The interior of this bar has a great ambience that I would recommend for a meet up with a friend or a date. They do not serve many food options, in the night we were here the only food that they had was the dumplings. I would be more inclined to come back if they offered other snacks or appetizers. I would however definitely try this place again.

Dark, moody, sexy...exactly the kind of atmosphere you want when you're getting dressed up, grabbing cocktails and catching up with a girlfriend. We grabbed seats at the bar and the bartender was fantastic. She welcomed us right away, asked if it was our first time, and gave us a quick rundown of the menu and cocktails. For our first drink, we both ordered the Black Widow...having absolutely no idea that it came with a whole presentation. Needless to say, we were entertained. The drinks here aren't just drinks -- they're part of the experience. For dinner, I ordered the gnocchi but swapped out the regular sauce for the spicy marinara they use with the calamari. GREAT decision. The spicy marinara worked so well with the gnocchi and I'd absolutely order it that way again. Pricing felt very fair for what you're getting. The food and cocktails were both high quality, but you're also paying for the ambiance and overall experience -- and Oak & Olive nails that part. Great drinks, great food, fantastic atmosphere and exactly what our girls' night needed. We'll definitely be back!

There's a secret entrance since it's a speakeasy, which is fun. Someone is always there to help guide you if you can't figure it out, haha. The lighting is low, and there are a lot of comfy spots to sit, which makes the environment feel very calm and cozy. We ended up all ordering a variety of espresso martinis. Mine was a crème brûlée one, which was divine, but they all sounded delicious! We also ordered the fig & pear pizza to share. I wasn't sure what to expect, but the flavors worked really well together! I'm hoping I can come here with my husband soon.
