I had the western bacon cheeseburger with fries and a strawberry shake. These burger was full of flavor and BIG! Not sure exactly how they make their fries, but they're amazing. And my strawberry shake was good also. We had about 45 people all land at the same time, and SQZ was able to quickly get us all served in short order. I do love the vibe of both SQZ & IDOL. It was a nice little drive both ways with an epic food stop in between.

I ordered a #3 combo and a side of ranch for $17.50 before tip and tax. It came with a large slider, another chicken breast on toast, a large serving of crinckle cut fries, and a drink. It was a lot of food and I had leftovers, so I was happy with the size of the portions. The slider had a big, thick, piece of fried chicken breast on it. It was a little spicey, topped with pickles, sauce, cole slaw and served on a nice brioche bun. It was one of the better chicken sandwiches I've had in a while and very satisfying. The chicken breast on toast, was silimar and just as satisfying. The fries were hot, chispy, and lightly seasoned. I enjoyed every one as I dunked them in sauce and munched them down. The staff was nice, and prepared my food quickly. The dining room was basic, but functional, and the drinks were self-serve. I'm happy to give them 5 stars. The food was really good.

We were seated quickly and served waters right away. My husband ordered the fish and chips, while I went with the jalapeño chicken sandwich. The sandwich came with a grilled chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, pepper jack cheese, crispy fried onions, and jalapeño dressing on grilled ciabatta bread. I also upgraded my fries to their Bleu fries (topped with bleu cheese crumbles and bleu cheese dressing). The fries were definitely a highlight--served hot, crispy, and perfectly paired with the bleu cheese. My husband was really impressed with the fish and chips, which he hadn't tried here before. The fish was beer-battered and fried, served with fries and coleslaw. He especially liked the coleslaw, noting that it tasted fresh with great flavor and wasn't overly coated in mayo. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal and the experience. Looking forward to coming back again soon.

My husband ordered Fish N Chips - fish was extremely greasy. Our server was superb, kind, friendly, fast, 2 minute follow up and keeps our drinks filled and all the clutter removed throughout the dinner. If the food were nearly as appetizing as the servers work ethic I may consider returning. Ambiance was lovely.

Friendly, attentive, and made sure we were good the whole time. Now the food? No complaints there. Everything tasted great and definitely felt like it came from a Michelin-rated chef/owner. BUT... the wait time? Whew. I'm pretty sure I went through all five stages of hunger before my plate showed up. At one point I was considering eating the table décor. For a spot with that kind of reputation, I expected the kitchen to move a little quicker. Amazing food, great service--but I lost two stars because I was about two minutes away from ordering an emergency appetizer from somewhere else Still worth checking out--just maybe bring a snack... just in case.

Now was a good as time as any! As we entered, there was a sign to meet at the bar for seating. The waitress/server came out after a bit of a wait and according to my friend, it's usually a longer wait time around lunch for someone to come out and seat you. I was recommended to try the pork schnitzel by my friend and it did not disappoint. I got my sandwich with a side salad. We also ordered the deviled eggs to share. My friend has never had the deviled eggs before and pleasantly surprised and delighted that the eggs were absolutely delicious. They're very smooth, eggs were cooked perfectly and the touch of bacon was just right. It does come with a small helping of mixed greens topped with pickled onions. The pork schnitzel was crispy & crunchy due to the breaded pork loin, came with pickled onions, slaw and the chipotle aioli sauce. The sauce does have a bit of a kick to it but it wasn't too spicy, well, at least for me. My salad was very good too. It was colorful and had an interestingly tangy dressing on it. It paired well with the sandwich. One was spicy and the salad was tangy but refreshing. My friend also ordered the pork schnitzel with beef tallow fries. I tried some of her fries and they were thin but still crispy. Overall the food at West Oak Nosh was so good and delicious! Service was good, prompt and our server was attentive despite being by herself. I think this place is great for the summer to have a drink and eat. Will have to come back for the drinks!

There was only one young guy working but no line. I stood at the window for more than 5 minutes and saw no movement inside until I saw him walk in from outside, look at me, and then walk back into the kitchen area. He finally came out and took my order and was very friendly. Everything just continued to spiral downward after that. We waited 45 minutes for our food. Three other customers came and left before our food was done. Another customer left without ordering because he stood at the counter for 15 minutes without being greeted. When we finally got our food, it was sad. The fries and onion rings had a great crunch, but tasted like dirty oil. My pastrami burger tasted just like my fiancé's cheeseburger- no pastrami flavor. The special sauce tasted like mayo with a splash of ketchup and a tiny bit of relish. It needed onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, and much more relish. Fosters Freeze isn't far and the prices are the same ish but the food is so much better.

To make matters worse, two teenage boys who arrived about 45 minutes after us were given their fries before we were even served. That was incredibly frustrating to watch. There were two younger employees working & while I understand being short staffed, the level of disorganization and lack of urgency was unacceptable. After we finally received our food, I decided to order a sundae. I was told they were out of vanilla. About 10 minutes later, my sister-in-law went up to order her own sundae and was suddenly told they had vanilla, just that they were "running out." If that was the case, why wasn't it offered to me? Just pinned the nail on the coffin for me with this! The service was inconsistent and disappointing. Sadly, we won't be back. Should have just went to in n out at this point :(

The burger with add ons was spendy and failed to meet expectations on several levels. The pie was so disappointing. custard actually has a narrow definition and I think they had the audacity to not use either of the 2 primary ingredients that define custard. Blech, no. And the crust was doughy and undercooked. Like srsly, wtf. The chocolate cream pie was underwhelming, It looked really good, but did not deliver. Pie must be more substantive than just pretty looking. I want to eat pie and be happy afterwards. It is seldom that I eat pie and frown, and yet, Nation's managed. There was one thing that I absolutely adored about this location and that is the bathroom was 100% clean and sparkling. Really. And ceiling to floor blue tile is stunning, It gets a whole star for just that alone.

I loved the indoor outdoor setup, the bar scene, TVs playing games, and the overall lighting. We chose to sit outside and were seated quickly. The heaters made it comfortable even as it cooled down. They also have a wide variety of food options, which makes this a great spot for a group since there's something for everyone. They started us off with complimentary pinwheels which were nice to snack on while we looked over the menu. I do think they would be even better served the traditional way with lime and Tapatio. I ordered the Table Nachos as my meal, which would also be a great group appetizer. They were fully loaded and filling, but overall just okay. The chicken was a bit bland. It did the job, but not something I would go out of my way to order again. My fiancé had the Mango Habanero Chicken Sandwich and was also a bit underwhelmed. For something labeled habanero, it lacked the kick you would expect. We both agreed the fries were the highlight. Service was friendly and our waitress checked in on us, but a few small things were missed and we had to ask more than once for items like extra napkins and sauce. While dinner was not a hit for us, it may have just been what we ordered. I would be open to coming back to try their brunch.
