Daughter had shrimp Alfredo. All plates were exceptional in flavor. My lamb chops seems to be cooked on a charcoal or wood grill and were seared perfectly, juicy, tender and DELICIOUS. Collard greens were fantastic and had a big chunk of smoked turkey in it. The yams were tender and sweet. Maybe a little too sweet but still edible. The wife's pork chops must've been good cuz she refused to share w me and my daughter devoured her shrimp Alfredo.

One of our favorites is the shrimp cocktail, it's loaded with shrimp, cucumber, avocado, cilantro and tomato. The servers are always friendly, and I've never waited for a table.

The entire experience was pleasurable from the greeting, to the service, and especially the quality of the meal. We eat primarily vegetarian and the options provided us with a hearty meal. Of note were the grilled mushrooms and the Spring Tagliatelle. The beet purée was incredible. Our palates were then totally refreshed with a vegan chocolate-hazelnut gelato. The food is made on the premises from scratch and tastes like the food I enjoyed in Northern Italy. Grazie mille per l'eccellente esperienza culinaria!

I think honestly that's stupid since they are right next to each other. The filet I ordered was actually very good. Cooked medium as I asked and had a wood fire oak taste to it. The Mac and cheese side was also very good. Not as warm as I would want it but still very good. I ordered the donuts for dessert. They were also very good and had no complaints about the food overall. The service was also great. They have a full bar. The only issue I have was h the e limited menu. Seems really dumb to me. The entertainment by the bar (live performance) was absolutely terrible.

I cannot rave enough about this place. Everything from the ambiance to the service to the food was an absolute 10 out of 10. We started with the fried calamari, and I say this as someone who orders calamari everywhere it's on the menu: this was hands down some of the best calamari I have ever had. That is not a small statement. For our main course, we all ordered the Wagyu steak and I cannot recommend it enough. It cuts like butter and is absolutely divine, worth every penny. If you're a steak person, do not hesitate. For our sides, we shared the mac and cheese, Brussels sprouts, truffle fries, and mashed potatoes and every single one was incredible. To finish the night, we had the chocolate layered cake for dessert. I paired mine with a coffee and oh my goodness, best cake. Everything we ate was perfection. The staff was incredible, going above and beyond to make our experience special. The cleanliness of the restaurant and the adjacent restrooms were absolutely immaculate, which speaks volumes about how well this place is run. I love to fine dine, and Council Oak definitely lived up to every expectation. This is the kind of place you will be talking about long after you leave. We will absolutely be back. Highly, highly recommend!

I do think the price of the buffet was a little high. It was about $28.
