Oak & Reel Detroit Reviews from The Last Year
Had a reservation for Fri 5 pm before the 3 Dog Night
Had a reservation for Fri 5 pm before the 3 Dog Night concert. Simple nondescript building from the outside, with a simple easy nice decor inside and hey open at 5 pm sharp. Was my Bday and everyone seem to know as well as met with a simple note on the table telling me Happy Bday. The server was prompt, smiling, and happy to get waters quickly, and explain the menu. Then she brought bread with delicious olive oil. Loved that the servers were all in Carhart uniforms, looked great. Started with a bottle of wine and had a great SOMM to ask any questions which we did and well answered The wine Trebbiano blend was excellent mix of chardonnay from Italy We wanted to try several things so we went with three appetizers and two pastas. Number one on the appetizers was the Octopus, it was perfectly tender, even creamy inside yet had a crunch from the char. I could have ordered three more. Next was the Burrata creamy and complete and last though not least was the Langoustine which is like a lobster but was creamy and more fully in taste. This took us to the pastas the cappallacci and the lumache. Though the pasta course were not large they were enough with the appetizers. The oyster, ricotta, mushrooms and peas were tender and full in flavor. The lumache with squid ink pasta and seafood was incredible. During all this the server was attentive, took care of water, refolded a napkin, used plates taken away and the table wiped between settings, simply AMAZING service, she was smiling polite and easy to converse with, just delightful. We decided to drink our dessert because in a rare find they had both Benedictine and Tokaji on the menu. Order was placed and forgot to ask how many puttonyos was the Tokaji. The somm came back and we had a delightful conversation with her, it was 6. We then got a little gelatin after dinner bite which I can't do justice in explaining but it was a perfect end. We were told they had an intimate little bar downstairs that stays open later. Came back after the better than expected concert to try the bar. Not crowded and we sat at the bar to chat with the bartenders. A wine and a sazerac was ordered. The sazerac was incredible with the absinthe wash and was presented perfectly. Can I give them a 6 or maybe 7 on the 5 star scale. The places really hit all the notes.

We had a magical time here! This is a beautiful space with lovely views from every seat We each chose the 4 course option. It was so fun to try 8 dishes from the menu. Our favorites were: the grilled octopus, pasta de mare, & the halibut. We shared the strawberry/ rhubarb dessert and the second dessert came home with us we were so full. Our server Lauren S was fantastic. She was knowledgeable & friendly. She expertly guided us through the menu and timed our meal perfectly. We could not have had a better experience.
everything was wonderful from the service, the decoration
everything was wonderful from the service, the decoration in the restaurant and the feel of it, along with the food. The waiter was kind to 'rush' our dinner because we did arrive a bit late and had a show to catch. luckily we knew what we wanted (who else checks menus before they eat anywhere - not just me, right?) I got everything at once - oysters and octopus. Both just phenomenal. Oysters were both east and west coast. This comes with a different sauce/seasoning than typical - their twist i think, i didnt really love it but oysters were great. Octopus probably the best i have had so far, tender and seasoned well, with some sort of base that i loved. overall i loved this place
My friends enjoyed the food.
I don't eat seafood, but the apps and entree I ordered I personally wasn't crazy about. We shared a ton around the table, nothing wowed us. The restaurant vibe was cool though, the drinks looked good. I forgot my ID (even though I look well over 21), and I wasn't allowed to get a drink, which was kind of annoying, being that we were enjoying a well overdue moms night out. I know it's the law, but I had a picture of my ID, And most people in customer service have wiggle room, I'm over 30. I mean I've got 4 kids for crying out loud. But it's fine. My 4 star rating is generous to be honest. Neither of us would go back

The Oak&Reel is located in a storefront, once inside we were pleasantly surprised! It is spacious and decorated well. The staff is professional, engaging and very considerate. The menu is eclectic. We ordered an appetizer NewZeland crab legs, they were two of the tiniest legs each leg was one bite each, disappointing and very expensive. We felt after the appetizer and langostino entree, tho flavorful, we left hungry. We were not satisfied for the $$$$$ spent.
A little pricey but everything tasted amazing! We told the
A little pricey but everything tasted amazing! We told the server about any dietary restrictions and he was great at helping us choose our food based on that. I had the squid ink pasta and shared some desserts with friends
Delicious dinner on a Thursday night.
Beautiful space, amazing service (great recommendations and very well versed on the menu and wine pairings). Everyone was so attentive and each course was well thought out and tasty
A wonderful mix of Italian inspired dishes.
Always a treat. Wonderfully complex pastas especially the malfadine and the smoked trout ravioli.
Oak & Reel is one of my favorite restaurants.
Period. You can always trust that it's going to be great. The atmosphere is so approachable. I feel comfortable to stroll in with my jeans and sweater, yet still have a 5 start experience. You feel so welcome. The service is always top notch! Very attentive and friendly. The dishes are always presented and explained, which I appreciate. It's just everything you want in a dining experience. If you haven't been, please go! What are you waiting for??
I can't say enough good things about our experience at Oak
I can't say enough good things about our experience at Oak & Reel. Everything from start to finish was incredible. We ordered burrata, salad, and oysters as appetizers. The burrata had so much unique flavor and the salad was extra tasty with a red wine vinaigrette. For dinner-- The scallops were great. There were 3 large ones served on a plate. It came with a couple pieces of romaine lettuce and one sunchoke (potato like item). You absolutely need to order an app if you only want the scallops. The malfadine pasta was delicious. The lamb sausage really added extra flavor to the meal. The spaghetti with lobster in it was super good. And lastly, the lumache pasta was very interesting in all the best ways. We weren't sure what the squid ink was going to taste like, but it was wonderful. We would order every dish again. For dessert, we had the chocolate mousse cake and crostata al limone. The lemon was so refreshing. We celebrated a birthday at dinner, so our server bought them a gelato. That was also yummy! The environment was calm, clean, and comfortable. We will absolutely dine here again.
