Overall very good, although the server mixed up the temps for our steaks (filet was medium well and sirloin medium; should have been the opposite). Prices just a little high vs similar restaurants.

The waiter, Dan was fantastic. The drinks were good. For the amount we paid I expected to have leftovers. My husband didn't like his prime rib at all. I had rack of lamb which was good but sparse. The vegetables they give you first was a total waste. The salad should have had more dressings than just red wine vinegar. The atmosphere was very nice. I had three more $25 coupons which I threw away. I am even less happy with restaurants.com. Not enough

Loved the relish tray, bread and twice baked potato included with the meal. Great ambiance and food was very tasty.

We like a certain table location and it was not given; although we asked this when making reservation, upon arrival we were told that a certain table location could not be reserved.

There was a table next to ours with 3 couples seated at it. They were loud, obnoxious and after a few drinks, more than intoxicated! After a short while, my wife got us and asked the people at the front desk to re-seat us which they did (she explained why to them). After we were re-seated two other tables got up and did the same thing. Unfortunately, they seated us at a table that was both cold (next to a window) and dark (not well lit), so after the table for 6 left, we asked that we be re-seated (if possible) to our original table. My question is: why didn't management do something about this and why didn't they comp us (at least a token comp)? Neither suggestion here was done. This is why we rated our dining experience a 2!

My husband and I were celebrating my birthday as we do every year at White Oaks as it is my favorite restaurant. My husband made reservations several days before and specifically asked for a table on the veranda .. When we arrived we were seated inside . When we asked why the girl told us outside was for tables of 4..There was even an empty table visible..Food is great, love the wonderful service, but really prefer to be outside where it's bright and cheery.. Really put a bit of a damper on my birthda y celebration..

Love the cottage cheese and condiment tray. Gracious service staff. Minimal wait -on a Tuesday night -for cocktails and entree.
August 26, 2019
Loved the ambiance and classic timeless style. Ribeye perfectly prepared. Pearl onions were incredible. Bread and butter to die for!! Salad excellent. Old fashioned outstanding!!! Very happy!!oh and the Lobster bisque was best ever!!!

New waitress forgot to provide menus when seated but otherwise did a good job as she took our order and was able to answer a question about the item being ordered.

We had a table in front of a window ,facing a creek, allowing us to enjoy wildlife and nature (trees). Our waiter was friendly and attentive and most importantly, the food was very good; we each had a chicken entree.

food and service are excellent. The view is so nice; we watched mallard ducks swim and waddle around while we dined
June 17, 2019
Twice baked potatoes were tough, my husbands prime rib was more than half gristle ( daughters was fine) thought that the kitchen might notice. My husband does not like to complain but when a plate comes back with a huge pile of gristle one would think someone would notice. Your serving staff is great especially the young people,

WE HAVE BEEN COMING TO THIS RESTAURANT FOR 43 YEARS SINCE WE GOT TRANSFERRED HERE. NEVER HAD A BAD MEAL OR BAD SERVICE. THIS RESTAURANT IS #1.

This is NOT a new age, modern restaurant by any means. It's a throw back relic of a different time, but done very well.

Great atmosphere. Depending on where you sit, you may have an excellent view of Cahoon Creek and its wildlife. The restaurant also has an interesting history as being a speakeasy in the Prohibition era. My only substantive criticism is that the restaurant has two menus, dinner (expensive) and lounge (less expensive). Even though our coupon was presumably only valid for dinner menu items, I think we should have still been informed that there were two menus when we arrived. I only knew about the two menus because I had visited their website.

our waiter was excellent, however the food was sub par. For the prices and the atmosphere you expect top quality. It fell short compared to past visits.

The wait staff is exceptional, courteous, friendly and well informed about menu items. The food is brought out a a pace that allows you to enjoy each course and not feel rushed at all. Love the fact that they've maintained a long-time tradition of serving a fresh relish tray (fresh veggie tray) along with their outstanding cottage cheese and warm bread.

The servers were all excellent! The fireplace, the window view above the ravine, the beautiful decor...all made this a great place to visit! And the food was delicious too!

December 27, 2018
We love the ambiance, the setting, the service and the delicious food! We hope to dine here more often and we will bring friends to join us as I’m sure they will enjoy it, also. It was definitely a special place to celebrate our anniversary. P.S. The roaring fire in the fireplace was an added surprise.

Our server was really great. The food was exceptional. Everything about the experience was wonderful. We were there to celebrate our 25th Anniversary, and we will definitely return.
December 11, 2018
The food was really good, unfortunately we had a very bad server. We were finished with our food for over 20 minutes, had it boxed by the bus boy and had our coats on before she returned to our table.

Valet parking was great for wheel chair driver on oxygen. 3 doors and steps , 1 step after each door . Gave my wife a great break! Also allowed us to avoid the rain.

Complimentary valet parking, accommodated our party when we arrived a little early, accommodated our table/booth request, server and other staff were great, polite, knowledgeable. Food was delicious. My filet was perfectly cooked, mixed vegetables and twice baked potato perfectly cooked. My 7 year old loved her buttered bowtie pasta with parmesan cheese. My mother ordered beef wellington and said it was delicious and also perfectly cooked.

My husband and I went to White Oak's to celebrate our Anniversary. My husband called ahead for reservations, when we arrived, we were seated immediately. My husband and I sat at our table for over 15 mins before the server came to our table. Once our server came over to us, she got our drink order, explained the specials and then returned. I asked her what entree she preferred out of the two I narrowed it down to, she seemed irritated, answered me, and asked what I would be having . I then chose my entree. My husband on the other hand knew he wanted a ribeye so that's what he ordered. Once the ribeye arrived it was too pink in the middle so he sent it back to be cooked more. When the ribeye was returned to the table the ribeye was so chard that it was not edible in his opinion. My husband notified the waitress that his steak was really chard and she said that's what happens when you send it back. The cooks are unable to tell how cooked it is. So my husband said nothing else and just asked for a box. In the meantime, while all this is going on, we were not offered refills, we had to ask for our own refills. Originally we were not offered bread we had to ask for that also. At the end our waitress brought out our check and never asked if we wanted dessert but the people around us were offered dessert menus and actually got their food before we did even though we were there before them. Once our check was dropped off to the table the waitress noticed that we had our certificate for $25 off restaurant coupon, then was really annoyed and rude. I've never felt like such a bother. I guess that will be the last time we go there.
June 27, 2018
This visit was better than our prior two, for both food and service, but for the prices the quality and experience should be better. Come up with more sides vs. everyone getting a twice-baked potato and green beans with carrots. Overall White Oaks needs to get back some luster.
June 27, 2018
Service is always excellent and the food is outstanding. Love their salmon and Beef Wellington!

Food was good. We were seated in a room towards the back of the restaurant. It would have been nice to see the view. We had to valet park which would not have been my first choice. Decor was pretty dated and worn.
April 1, 2018
Would have preferred a more modern approach to the standard carrot and green bean vegetable. They were fresh, but needed a better presentation and flavor.
March 21, 2018
Food was excellent. Wait staff are friendly and very efficient. Expensive, though.
February 14, 2018
Overall everything was great, food, drinks, service. Bus boys were on their game with water refills. Great atmosphere, not rushed at all, and a good vibe. Server could have been a little more talkative, and didn’t mention any specials or anything like that, but aside, she was good.
January 24, 2018
We are always looking for different places to dine out so don't usually return to the same restaurant over and over...except White Oaks. It has become one of our favorites and we return for special occasion several times a year. Love the quiet, romantic atmosphere.

Prime rib was too fatty. Pork dish wasn't very tender.

It took 10 minutes to fill the water glass. Water glass was dirty.
November 28, 2017
At 3 pm on a Sunday, we were the only guests in the dining room. For some reason we thought that we would receive prompt attention. At least 10 minutes went by before menus were brought to the table. We made our selections and at least another 10 minutes passed before the server returned. (What would it be like if the restaurant were busy?) We settled on the Lobster Bisque for a start. It was AMAZING!!! The warm Parmesan-crusted bread was a lovely complement. Instead of dinners, we opted for a selection of appetizers, all of which were underwhelming. What a disappointment...the Grilled Flatbread, Bacon-wrapped Scallops, and Panko-breaded Shrimp all lacked flavor.(And the Shrimp was over-fried.) Time for the chef to kick it up a notch in our opinions.Had our experience ended with the Bisque and Bread, it would have been wonderful and a 5-star rating would be appropriate. But the overall experience deserves only a 2-star rating.
November 17, 2017
Everything about it was great. The food was excellent and the ambiance was wonderful. The wait staff did not interrupt repeatedly but were always there when we wanted something.

The service and food quality have diminished significantly since our last visit a year ago.

Nice restaurant but not worth the money. 48$ for a prime rib dinner was way too much especially since it was mostly fat on the piece of meat that I got.
May 24, 2017
Couldn't wait to try this restaurant-the food was good but our server was poor. Barely checked on us nor came back after our food was served to ask how anything was or if we needed anything

Nice ambiance. Prices weren't offered with specials, making it awkward to ask. Then shock at the price when the bill came. ($40 & $45 - to nearest dollar - for prime rib entree). Meat was cooked to perfection but most of the cut was too difficult to chew. Would suggest better silverware, steak knives and dinner ware for presentation. Should have ordered the chicken dish I originally considered.

My husband ordered Veal Marsala and was very disappointed in quality of meat. Very tough and, if not for the sauce, would have sent it back. Also, for so many years, we are tired of twice baked potatoes. Nothing is offered to exchange, not even French Fries or extra vegetable. Will not return there for a very long time.
August 17, 2016
Food was great, service is very, very slow.
August 16, 2016
Reservations were made two months prior and reconfirmed two days before for special occasion. We waited in the lounge for over an hour. When finally seated we were politely pushed to complete our meal. We were going to order crembrule but they were suddenly out thus no dessert. Not a good experience!!!
August 15, 2016
Very slow service. Forgot our appetizer. Main dish only warm. Took over 1 hour from the time we arrived until food was served.

We did not have a reservation comma but the waitress set up a table by the window very quickly. The service was fast in the waiter was very attentive, and funny as well.

The only complaint I have is I ordered a filet medium well and it came back rare. I sent it back and they threw it back on the grill and then it was a little dry.

Food was good, the ambiance of the restaurant is great, and their is an abundance of wildlife available to view
March 14, 2016
The ambiance is lovely, with a view of the river and the woods. The food quality was good, but not inspired. The server was personable and knowledgeable, but we waited a long time between visits. Support staff did not clear plates in a timely way or refill beverages unless asked. Could have worked better as a team and been more attentive.
March 14, 2016
Always enjoy dining at White Oaks
March 7, 2016
Our meals ranged from good to excellent. The atmosphere and the views were fantastic!

Horrible atmosphere. We were seated in a back room that had poor lighting, lacked soft music and with diners who were dressed very casually. Not the romantic night we had hoped for at all.

More than we expected. Nice quite place to enjoy your guests.Everything was above par.
February 19, 2016
When you want filet, this is the place to have one. It will melt in your mouth.the rebaked potatoes are great as is everything else in this lovely place.
February 5, 2016
The steaks were not as warm as they could have been and they seemed to be not as tender as usual.
February 1, 2016
The food is delicious and the ambiance is warm and wonderful. We were seated near a fireplace with an outdoor view. We loved it!
January 22, 2016
winter night and restaurant was chilly because of the windows - but it is one of Cleveland's most beautiful views for a restaurant
January 13, 2016
Great food, good service and great setting.
January 11, 2016
We had a lovely time. We like the rich feel of the restaurant.

The food was delicious and the service wonderful.
October 12, 2015
They need to tighten it up. Broken chair, not stellar service, seems like a bunch of inexperienced teen to twenty somethings on staff. Forced valet parking the to small lot was slow, brought the wrong vehicle.
October 7, 2015
Food is good, Would like to have a offer for only one lobster tail. I would cut out the mixed vegetables, seemed everyone was cutting that out of there meal.Love the back window view of river.
October 6, 2015
The food and the service was excellent. There were no negatives for the whole evening. We had a great time.
September 28, 2015
Our dinners were over priced for what we received. Our waitress was not on top of things!

two people had the Veal Marsela and we did not care for it. Too much gravy sauce. one person had the filet and another had thee Ribeye steak. They seemed pleased.
August 10, 2015
We brought close friends to celebrate their 50th anniversary, they loved it

My husband and I went to White Oaks 40 years ago and I have been wanting to go back. We live in Brunswick, Oh so I went with my 2 girlfriends and loved it!
June 24, 2015
The extras were unexpected but nice: vegetable plate, cottage cheese, cloth napkins and table cloths, etc. Very friendly service and we were treated to a menagerie of animals that came to eat at the creek flowing outside our window.
June 23, 2015
Service needs improvement... Slow..
June 19, 2015
Ouite place. Love the little stream in back with ducks and deer.Would like to see served 1 lobster tail.
June 16, 2015
The Food and service was good the crème brulee was fantastic. Nice dinning experience for our 40th anniversary Thanks
June 15, 2015
Very good restaurant. Obviously caters to an older crowd with menu selection and side availability. Veggies were good but just steamed without any seasoning. I ordered the duck, which was supposed to be crispy. It definitely wasn't crispy, but still delicious.
June 15, 2015
Excellent food. Good service.
June 10, 2015
Great scenery, great food!

Silverware was a bit dirty. Ribeye was bit too fatty. I know they are supposed to be. I expected a better size steak and quality for the money I spent on it.
March 19, 2015
I ordered the rib steak, and every bite I took had fat. After the fourth or fifth bite I stopped eating.
March 12, 2015
Atmosphere is awesome and the food is great. My favorite restaurant for special occasions.
March 10, 2015
Was placed in a small back room. Every other seating location looked beautiful.
February 25, 2015
Great atmosphere.
February 19, 2015
my wife had her usual - the duck. i had salmon. they were both great. the fireplace was nice in this frigid weather! service was top shelf!
February 9, 2015
Even though it was a very busy night at the restaurant, the service was impeccable. Beginning with the hostess and continuing throughout the evening, everyone attended to their duties, being attentive but not overly so. Our server was very friendly, knowledgeable and experienced (even though she was relatively young). The timing of our meal was just right.
January 30, 2015
the food and environment was excellent

I love all of the fireplaces! Plus the food was excellent and the staff was friendly.
January 15, 2015
Escargot appetizer was very disappointing.They were no bigger than marbles and they. Have the nerve to charge 10.99.
January 5, 2015
Our waitress was excellent (has two sets of twins) Food was very good. Hostess was dull and not very well trained. When I asked how what year the restaurant opened she shrugged her shoulder's. Did not smile and later came and stood for a long time at the step overlooking the back dining room?
December 23, 2014
We ate early & had the restaurant to ourselves. Also meant we had 3 people waiting on us. The setting is beautiful.
December 15, 2014
Our waitress was not very polished
December 12, 2014
no music, quiet, fireplace, amazing atmosphere to talk
December 11, 2014
The ambiance was very nice. We arrived before the dining room was open, and was told the hostess would come get us. She did not, we checked after we saw people being seated.
December 8, 2014
Server very nice and accommodating but she was spread too thin. We also waited a long time for our meal
December 8, 2014
Great food, excellent service. Festive atmosphere.
December 3, 2014
This place is very elegant. We loved the old wood feel, the smells, and the very cozy fireplace we got to sit next to. I would recommend sitting in the back where you can see the creek below. We were able to watch deer drinking from it while dinning. The food was also excellent and I wish I could tell you the servers name, because she was great.
December 1, 2014
Servers friendly and professional and timely on checking back with us. Will b back for sure in few days. Love the window table.9

Wonderful restaurant with great service and beautifully presented cuisine.
November 14, 2014
Great ambiance,delicious food.
November 10, 2014
the only thing wrong was the wait in between the coarses. and keeping the water glasses filled. Sat down at 4:30 and left there at 6:50pm.
October 13, 2014
Impeccably clean restaurant. Promptly escorted to table upon arriving, water and veggies brought to table within minutes. Order taken without pressure and timing of dinner courses was excellent. Service was tremendous and as always, the food was marvelous.
October 10, 2014
Great atmosphere, Poor food
October 6, 2014
Food and service was outstanding.
September 27, 2014
Beautiful setting: we watched a total of 8 deer and dozens of ducks feed in the riverbed while we ate. The food was fabulous: their rack of lamb is the best I have ever had. You get more than the average restaurant: in addition to the entrée, we were served a relish tray, cottage cheese, a salad, fresh baked bread, vegetable and the house specialty-twice baked potato. Husband had the daily special teriyaki salmon with mandarin oranges and crispy wontons. We were too full for dessert.
September 19, 2014
Very good food. Room was too cold for our comfort. Love the history and atmosphere.
September 8, 2014
I requested a window seat when making reservations, but was put in a room with no windows.We will be back,but we never would have known the place existed if not for the coupon.

Everything was very good
May 23, 2014
loved the atmosphere & the history of it- Glad the dress code has been loosened! Appreciate the signature veggies-we didn't care for cottage cheese. Loved the bread-it would be nice to have dipping oil offered. overall, really too pricey, even with a gift certificate.
May 21, 2014
beautiful restaurant with an awesome ambiance.
May 19, 2014
Food was excellent. The ambiance was so romantic, please keep the dress code in effect. The employees, from the parking lot attendent to the server's were all so polite.
April 25, 2014
White Oaks opened in 1928 an has an interesting history. It is beautiful with an elegant feel. The surrounds are gorgeous, big windows for great views. Most important was the food which was really delicious. Service was excellent, plenty of time to talk & relax. A little wait for food but that is to be expected when it is freshly prepared and tastes like it.
April 22, 2014
Really has gone downhill in just about every way. Prices may have been justified 20yrs ago but not any more. At this point they are just coasting and living off the diminishing good will and patience of their long time loyal customers. Nothing but a nostalgia place for the old old. Too bad. It used to be special.
April 14, 2014
quality food and service....always.
March 31, 2014
Great table with view and near the fireplace. My date was wonderful with the a great setting, service and food.

March 15, 2014
I took my dear friend there for dinner/she is leaving the Cleveland area for a new position in Virginia. The service/food and atmosphere were just perfect and timing of food was awesome as well. will definitely return!
March 10, 2014
great service; resent the required valet parking when we could easily park ourselves
March 9, 2014
Very nice night
February 28, 2014
Wait staff excellent with my elderly parents. Their patience and understanding and attentiveness to older persons needs is commendable and very much appreciated. Thank you all.
February 24, 2014
We entered the restaurant and were seated immediately. Our server was spot on with water, menus, and attentiveness.Our appetizers(escargot) arrived quickly and was excellent. The entrees were cooked perfectly and had very good flavor. The room we were seated in had a cozy fireplace that added to the atmosphere. The menu is a bit expensive, but the surroundings were warm and comfortable.
February 24, 2014
Nice table by window and excellent service
February 12, 2014
Restaurant does not start serving dinner until 5:00. We were asked to go sit in the bar, we had a child in a wheel chair with us and we are not drinkers. This restraurant is not handicap accessible and was very cold inside, we left our coats covering our legs
February 6, 2014
Food was exceptional, service was a little lax
February 3, 2014
The service was very very slow. Our table was filled w/ dirty dishes and our drinks were empty most of the time.
January 31, 2014
Grilled Salmon was prepared wonderfully. Great atmosphere.
January 24, 2014
The area where we were first seated was cold so we had to be reseated.
January 20, 2014
Food was great, service was mediocre. We were seated in a cold room surrounded by windows, and subsequently froze during our entire meal.

Tried and true. Ambiance, seasoned, quaint. Food consistently excellent. Love the bar offerings. No mixes, just made from scratch drinks.
September 9, 2013
The service was excellent and our meals were outstanding. We will definitely return.
September 4, 2013
Service is great! I would prefer to have steaks and scampi without the chef's sauce as it really overpowered the entrée. I like that they put on the menu NOT to use cell phones.

Excellent food, very good service, nice atmosphere
August 23, 2013
Enjoy dining by the windows. Excellent service. Thought the price for a glass of wine was high.
August 20, 2013
We had a wonderful meal and the service was excellent. However, the entre prices have gone up at least $5 since we were here last.
August 17, 2013
The setting is wonderful and the service fantastic.
July 29, 2013
Priced at "fine dining" but not the quality of "fine dining".
July 24, 2013
Dirty tablecloth, poor service
July 19, 2013
the waitrss was very good and came to see if we needed anything quite a few times I liked that.
July 2, 2013
My husband introduced me to White Oaks when we were dating 27 years ago. We always go back because the food and the service is always top notch.
June 22, 2013
The decor was beautiful and the food was delicious.
June 12, 2013
Delightfullace for special occasions. Supurb food, service, and surroundings. Too pricey for frequent visiting.
June 5, 2013
food was over-priced for the quality & portions
May 20, 2013
My pork dinner was tough. Our waitress had an attitude.
May 8, 2013
Great beef Wellington and wonderful atmosphere.
April 26, 2013
The lobster bisque was the soup of the day and it was watery and tasteless. My salmon was good but my husband was not satisfied with his filet. We used to go to this restaurant often years ago and thought we would go back. The setting and atmosphere is great, but the girl who sat us wasn't very helpful and our waiter spent as little time as possible with us. I thought the service was not up to standard for this type of restaurant.
April 19, 2013
Absolutely great food and service. My wife and I both had the ribeye steak, mine med and my wife was med well and they both were cooked just right. Bread was outstanding! Will definitely go back again.
April 15, 2013
My dining partner requested a booster seat so she could put her leg up as she needs to have it raised. They said they could bring one but never did. She was miserable during her meal.
April 4, 2013
Our server was friendly and helpful. Our food was hot and flavorful.
April 3, 2013
Beautiful Views, nice Atmosphere and wood burning fireplace. It Got busy on a Tuesday around 6:30pm.
April 2, 2013
special gorgonzola penne-could not taste any gorgonzola. Veal Madiera was lacking in flavor. well whiskey was $7.
March 25, 2013
The service was excellent and the food prepared just the way we wanted.
March 11, 2013
server #1 was excellent and most pleasant.
March 6, 2013
Ambiance was exceptional; historic and romantic. However, cut of ribeye was excessively fatty and lukewarm. Cut excess fat off and was left with 1/2 size steak. Ribeyes tend to be fatty but was over charred on the outside and over priced for the quality of steak served.
February 16, 2013
Great restaurant, friendly atmosphere, real fire, cozy, knowledgeable wait staff
February 16, 2013
Food was great! Restaraunt was crowded and quite noisy. Service was very good.

The food was delicious, as always, and the service was great!
January 28, 2013
Prime rib was delicious and cooked perfectly. Jumbo scam pies were very good also. Nice romantic dinner. Only small complaint was it was a little chilly in restaurant.
January 17, 2013
The apple/onion and lobster bisque soups were excellent. The Panko coated shrimp was also excellent as was the cheesy bread. My dining partners enjoyed the bar drinks, prime rib steak, Chicken Marsala and vegetarian pasta as well.Our only complaint was that the service left much to be desired; our server was unresponsive to our requests for additional olives and bread, We had to flag down a "runner" after waiting almost half an hour to get those items. Also the noise level was such that conversation was difficult, That might have been because we were seated near the bar room,
January 17, 2013
My entre was undercooked and full of grisle. My friends was barely warm. I snet mine back to be cooked furnther but they gave me another piece which was barely better and still mostly fat and grisle (I ordered the prime rib). My frend ordered the beef wellington which was not warm nor was the pastry crust cooked thru. They gave us free desserts to compensate us. Two of us ordered the creme brule which was ice box cold! We will not be oing back anytime soon.
December 1, 2012
The amount on my cc was half of the bill. My friend enjoyed her meal...the pork tenderloin with apple, etc. stuffing was dry and tasteless..I won't order it again.
November 1, 2012
Great food. Great atmosphere.
