The catfish was light and packed with flavor. The breading added the right amount of crunch/chewiness. The fries were crispy and crunchy. A dash of salt would have made them irresistible. The tartar sauce was light and tasty with a kick of spice. Highly recommend. read more

We were recently booked for a 3-night visit and tried breakfast the first morning. We opted for the à la carte menu to avoid the $24 buffet but were disappointed in the difference between the description of our meals and the quality of the food served. My husband had cold, dry pancakes with a side plate full of packaged syrup and butter. The oatmeal portion was very small, and after asking for the accompanying raisins and brown sugar, the waitress dropped off plastic to-go containers of each. Felt like a bad version of a free breakfast buffet at a discount hotel, but worse since the bill was $30. We cancelled our last night at the hotel and opted for Egg McMuffins on our way out of town. Based on the reviews here, it doesn't seem like things are going to change here, so I recommend making other plans for meals. read more

The worst place I have been to in a while I would not recommend this place if you are in a hurry cause you're probably looking at 2 hours

Oak Tavern sets quite the scene. We dined on the patio area with a nice view of the golf course. They had large tv screens to view different sporting events and fire pits that would be great for evening drinks with friends. The service was very good. We had several employees check in on us during our visit. They didn't have a menu listing non alcoholic drinks but the waitress brought us one "refreshing" and one "sweet" mocktail that lived up to the description. I ended up getting the Sicilian chicken with a side of street corn. The street corn was kind of odd, quite a few overly charred pieces of corn mixed in as well. An improvement could be made in the vegetable side options overall. They don't seem to pair well with any of the dishes available on the menu. The Sicilian chicken was very flavorful. The chicken was crispy and juicy. My only complaint is the pepperoni added on top of the chicken. They tasted very thin and of low quality. Honestly they were unnecessary and I ended up picking them off from under the cheese. read more

This was a very good experience. The server Ari was really nice and did a great job! The place was very clean and they have the most beautiful view. The food took longer than I'd prefer it to take to be served to us however it wasn't too bad. The food was well prepared and I enjoyed it. Only thing I'd change is for the salmon to have a little be a bit more seasoned however I enjoyed it. Overall a great experience and I'd definitely go back. read more

Went there last night for Valentine's day with my wife $150+ per couple. Advertised this great menu but dropped the ball. Took 15 min to get a server (that was after asking) for something to drink, then another 10 min for it to get to the table. A beer and wine took even longer. The food was mostly cold and fish wasn't cooked thoroughly (red in the middle). Went back for more but had to wait another 10 min for them to bring more out. We were OK and enjoying ourselves even with the pitiful service and cold food, but what was worse when they brought out the appetizers which was 30 min of sitting at the table. Then she after brought out three little quarter size scallops. When I asked where the my appetizers were she said that's all you get. You have to split them. We didn't understand it and saw other tables get two appetizers, one for each person, and you would expect that for $75 a person, but not for us. I even joked with The server cutting the roast beef that I couldn't cut wood that thin on my table saw. He laughed, but I had to go up to him twice so I can at least get three bites of meat. Wife and I decided we weren't going back again. This is the last time of paying $150 plus tax plus tip for a meal that should've cost about $25-$30. Last complaint was the AC in that room. Must've been set on 50°, it was freezing even with our jackets on. You guys have got to do better, you're just ripping people off. read more

Conveniently located inside the Marriott this restaurant and bar serves all variety of drinks and food. While the food is good it's not worth the wait. The staff was attentive but the kitchen took awhile to prepare the food. Reservations are available for small or large groups. There is indoor and outdoor seating as well. read more

I've played golf on the RTJ Capitol Hill in Prattville numerous times over the years but this was the first time I ate at Oak Tavern on the grounds. It's a nice restaurant with golf themes. The wait staff for our party of 25 was fantastic. The chef even came out to visit us after the meal. I had the Pan Seared Grouper along with Sweet Potato Fries. The grouper was delicious but those sweet potato fries were out of this world good. We'll definitely be back again for dinner. read more

Good food, good drinks and attentive service. The outdoor fire pits and TVs were nice to have as well to catch a game and it looks like they have a nice happy hour that I would not mind checking out if I am in the area. I would recommend this place to others to try if in the Prattville area and I will visit again. read more

Sorry, but this place doesn't get a good review from me. I usually say nothing, if not leaving a good review, but for this place I'll make an exception. Service was terrible, waitress was off in the corner talking with other staff while not taking care of the 3 tables she was not serving well. I was about ready to get up and get her when another staff caught my eye and brought me silverware after my meal was already on my table. The soup (which I bought as an add-on, because it wasn't included in my pasta dinner as an option) was so bad I left it; the waitress asked if I liked it (in my mind I thought , no I didn't like it, that's why it's still there, almost same as when you brought it to me) ... The baked chicken on pasta with marinara was well over-cooked & dried-out, even with a a side of marinara added to the dish it was "so-so" at best. With 2 beers my tab was over $60... With tip $80... what a waste of an opertunity to enjoy an "end of a busy week nice meal". read more

My husband and I came here for steaks and drinks. Our orders came out wrong. We were told our meal would be comped 50%. We started eating the wrong meal anyway and they then came and took away the meal and brought out our original order. Except, my husband's steak came out well done instead of the medium well he ordered. We just ate it because it had already taken longer than expected to get to eat. The meal was not good. Very underwhelming steak at best. They did not comp our meal as promised. We paid $155 for the most pitiful meal I've had in a very long time. We honestly could have fared better at Long Horn. Lesson learned and we will never be back. read more

The Oak Tavern was wonderful!! We were looking for something with a view and did we find it!! Not only was the view and ambiance wonderful and so was the staff!! We came at an odd time, but no one had a problem with that. They were very welcoming and attentive! It was not even 3:00 PM on a Saturday, and our day was not going as planned. We were laughing when I told our waiter we only needed 1 glass for the bottle of wine....because it had been a day. He laughed with us when I told him. Our food was good. I had the grilled chicken sandwich. Everything, including the fries, came out hot, fresh, and perfect! When we were fi ished, he carefully bagged the remaining bottle of wine for us so we could take it with us. On a side note, the chef came out to help another table that had diatery needs. You do not often see a chef come out of the kitchen, so we were pleasantly surprised when we saw this read more

The manager Chris does an incredible job. He was more than accommodating and ensured our experience was top notch. Beautiful place with friendly staff. read more

Beautiful setting. Not so great food. Rude service. Server didn't know what happy hour included or what desserts they offered. Asked for water and server rolled eyes at me. Asked for pepper and she brought a plastic grinder and slammed it down. Forgot to bring my husband's drink and her excuse was "we got busy". They got busy well after he ordered it. Place did get full with several loud intoxicated guys who were smoking cigars. One of them was passed out in a chair. Hostess was very kind.. read more

Food and service were both outstanding! Not an inexpensive place, but worth the money for sure. What other restaurant do you know that can boast having a barbecued brisket macaroni and cheese sandwich?? Oak Tavern is an awesome dining experience that I will visit again and again. read more

After 4 years of annual trips to the Marriott, it's gone into a decline. Big menu change, no more conecuh quesadillas or the great desserts of the past. Service was decent but nothing as good as the years past. Usually we have 2-3 meals there during a two night stay but we skipped Saturday night for a better option of gas station food and service read more

I want to give a shout out to Oak Tavern. They provide a buffet on major holidays such as Easter, Mother's Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas. I try to go on those holidays as often as possible because I celebrate the holidays alone and they provide a warm, comforting place to celebrate with caring staff and good food. I couldn't recommend them more highly read more

In Prattville at R T Jones's golf course, Senator. Oak Tavern is right off hole 17 par 5 of the SENATOR. They close from 2 to 5? Daily but reopen for supper and cocktails with music until 10 pm Great place for a cocktail after a long 18 holes. ALABAMA sun in Sept can get hot and very humid. Located in Marriott. read more

One of the best dining experiences I've ever had. My wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary and the folks from Oak Tavern made it special. Great service, good food, huge portions. Thanks to our server Sky. Everything was just perfect! read more

It's not bad, it's not great. Nice place, good views. Service was friendly. Food was fine, no complaints, but nothing beyond "pretty good". read more

Hard to be invisible at the bar but somehow I have achieved the impossible Prime rib night for 19.99 They say the meat is 16-22oz... They also said it's gone so no prime rib. Paid for my 2 beers and left. The rest of the menu is boring and expensive. Going to find a tequlia bar. read more

Food took 1.5 hours after ordering. Must be a new restaurant; they clearly did not have their operation organized. Food when it finally came was ok not great. Looked like a nice patio with good view of the golf course. read more

We decided to do a date night on a Thursday. I found out that they have live music every night! We show up and got seated by Lily. She was awesome! Our food was AMAZING! My boyfriend ordered the steak and I had the salmon. Completely worth going! We will go again soon. read more

It was decent. I went there not knowing what to expect. We walked in without reservations. It was pretty busy. Live music was setting up. Fantastic atmosphere. We didn't have great service. I'll chalk it up to that night. They have an amazing back patio. I had a friend tell me, since we walked in we should have eaten at the bar. I think it's worth a second try. read more

This place is a hidden gem!! Great food, great service and amazing atmosphere/views. Highly recommend!!!

This was a nice place to go away from all the typical places to eat. We chose the grouper. Definitely worth ordering. Also had a raspberry lemon drop martini. There was live music which really set the mood for a relaxing night with friends after a long week. Looking forward to returning as the weather gets cooler and eat outside. read more

Ate breakfast at the Oak Tavern during our stay at the Montgomery Marriott Prattville and what a delight. The views of the golf course from the restaurant were a beautiful sight. DeAsia, our server, was so sweet. The food and prices were fair for a hotel breakfast (non-continental). Overall very pleased and certainly will return. read more

Amazing steaks, staff, and oh my goodness try the grouper. You seriously can't beat the views. Breakfast is great. The buffet is the way to go. No better place to eat in Prattville! read more

Service is horrible! 30 minutes to just get drinks for a large party. Not recommended!

It was absolutely fantastic. Took my mother there because we didn't want to eat the same old boring chain restaurant stuff. We had the conecuh sausage quesadilla as an appetizer which was amazing & only $5 during happy hour. I had a Common Bond draft beer which I thoroughly enjoyed & is brewed right here in the River region. Mom got a Buffalo Chicken Flatbread pizza & I had the pan seared grouper with peach beurre blanc sauce both were awesome. I very highly recommend this nice little spot here at the RTJ Capitol Hill! read more

Buffalo chicken pizza was pretty embarrassing. I've had better pizza from a gas station (not exaggerating)

Great staff! Favorite part of my meal was the appetizers. We had the Cajun shrimp and crawfish fondue - cannot rave about this one enough! So good. Also, we ordered the fried wickles (another must try!). Will definitely be coming back read more

I wish there was a zero star. We are staying at a suite here and are playing 36 holes of golf tomorrow. It could only go uphill from here. The restaurant staff is hostile, scarily so. We ordered an entree size spinach salad and the 1/2 chicken, in-house smoked entree. The salad was fine, the chicken was anorexic. A Cornish game hen would intimidate it. After eating the three bites, and I am NOT exaggerating we asked for the chef who explained it had shrunk. Avoid this restaurant at all costs. read more

I give it 0 stars. Restaurant is horrible. We came to watch the LPGA event, and my wife and I decided to stay Sunday night to play golf Monday. Hotel is nice and comfortable with good views, and we decided to eat here rather than drive the short distance to one of the local chains. Huge mistake. When I went in to make sure we could get a table, no one was working except the bartender. One table occupied inside, one outside, and one guy at the bar, yet the bartender was rude from the first. It was so deserted at 7 pm I thought I better ask if the were open for supper, and bartender gave me a one word, mean sounding, "yes." Same thing when I asked if we could sit outside. She then said she would also serve us. Went outside and waited about 15 minutes when a different waitress showed up without menus. She had no idea what beers they had, so we gave her some choices and she had to write down "blue moon" and " corona" because not only did she not know if they had them, but what they were. Another customer came by and asked if we were going to eat, and we said, if we ever get menus. He said he was local and knew where they were, and he went and got menus for us. Yes, another customer brought us the menus, and staff never did. Eventually, the bartender came back with our beers and we ordered an appetizer, and said we would be ready in a minute. No one came back for about 25 minutes, and so we decided not to eat supper. The waitress finally came back with our appetizer, which turned out to be a tiny serving for the price, so we just asked for the check. That, too, took a while, and the other patron explained that this was normal bad service at this restaurant, and despite a great view and convenience and being basically the default hotel for a golf resort, it was always bad due to the service. A different waiter eventually brought our check, and he was very nice, but the rest of the staff was lazy at best, rude at worst. Marriott should investigate and either restaff this restaurant or shut it down. Too bad, the golf courses are beautiful and it could be a real destination hotel, like the one at Ross Bridge in Birmingham, but this restaurant is really, really horrible. read more

Location is quite out of the way. You'll have to be heading here on purpose as you won't find it by accident...unless you're staying at the Marriott its attached to. Went with a small group on a Thursday, which was the bar's date night. Very good one man guitar player/singer positioned next to the bar. Just the right volume. Great view of the golf course from the outside seating area. Menu was very limited. Their date night special, which was a shared appetizer and two entrées for $30. Other choice was the happy hour menu, which was not available after happy hour. We had a shared quesadilla with burger and chicken wrap. Overall they were OK. Ordered Sam Adams seasonal and it was the wrong season with Oktoberfest. Order a Corona and it was skunky. Wait staff was OK, but not very enthusiastic and fairly slow. Not a terrible experience, but likely not going to return unless for a beer after a round of golf. read more

This place gets the job done if you don't feel like leaving the hotel. Service was friendly and only slightly slow. But the food was good. I tried the burger at dinner and the breakfast buffet the next day. The burger came out with the wrong toppings, but I didn't feel like pointing it out after a tiring day of travel. But the breakfast buffet was pretty good - omelette station (if you can find the person running it), scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, fruit (actual berries, not just melon!), yogurt and cereals. read more

The five stars are for our server Melodie who was absolutely amazing. Very attentive and friendly. However, we were sat by the bar, given it was an extremely slow night, and the bartender pitched a fit because we were in her section, so we were asked to move tables. The table we were at never got sat. Very unprofessional. But overall the food was outstanding and our waitress Melodie did a great job! read more

Stayed at the hotel for one night. Dinner in the restaurant with a group of friends. Service was good, food was average. Generous portion of salmon, OK garlic mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables fresh. The salmon was not real fresh. read more

This was one of the worst service experiences I have had at a bar in town. The bartender obviously was not having it that night. She barely greeted us and never offered a menu. We had to ask on several different occasions if she had certain mixers, until finally WE had to ask for a menu. The best part was after we had finished our drinks, she was nowhere to be found. We finally found a nice gentlemen to ring us up and settle our bill. Props to him for stepping in! read more
