Cozy bistro in Cambridge. I’ve been craving for their thousands layer potato since last visit! The table setting was so sweet and welcoming. We liked every plate we ordered. The presentation was beautiful and the flavors were top notch. One thing they might improve is that the pasta was a little heavy to my taste.

Oak Bistro was a great host for my family’s Valentine’s Day lunch. The food was great – especially enjoyed the taste and presentation of the Tuna.

Our drinks were also well done. Thanks to Colleen H for taking good care of us.

Had a wonderful birthday dinner here
Great food, warm atmosphere and welcoming service.

We enjoyed every dishes we ordered.
Oyster is buttery and crispy, very good appetizer.
Octopus was smoky, juicy, and tender, roasted and flavored perfectly. It was the best octopus we’ve had around Boston. A bite of spinach, octopus, potato, dipped with cream was such a feast.
Cornbread was creamy, sweet and warm. A bit too fulfilling as the appetizer though.
Cheese board is well curated, seasonal and fresh. We enjoyed all three cheese. The pecans were very crispy, went really well with the soft cheese.
For the mains, we had roasted chicken and pappardelle braised short rib ragu. The chicken is very tender, with smoky and crispy skin. The Pappardelle is cheesy and well flavored.
The portions were large, compared with the price.
We left really full and satisfied.
I also enjoyed the cocktail, named autumn harvest. It is whisky based, with some nuts. Very earthy, alcoholic.

They also write the names on the card for every reservation , which is pretty lovely. And we got lot of birthday wishes and complimentary desert.

My favorite place in the Boston area! I have been here in different occasions, for dinner with clients, for lunch with friends, just for a drink and I just had dinner with my kids, every time a great experience, from the atmosphere to the food. Love this place! I finally found a place the servers THE perfect risotto (receipt changes with the seasons but the title of the best of Boston doesn’t) t

Short rib croquettes 10/10. My friend got the summer risotto and she liked it. I got the chicken Caesar wrap and it was a 7/10 for the price. I got their fries with it and they were amazing 10/10. Ambiance was good but I wish I was seated closer to the sunny window! I made a reservation for lunch but it wasn’t necessary honestly. Service was great. I would come back and order something else next time!

Visited Inman Square before a book reading in the area. Found Oak Bistro as I was walking around and I was able to get a seat at the bar. The employees were super friendly and attentive. More importantly, I have to say it was an unbelievable culinary experience. For my starter I ordered the blueberry ricotta buttermilk cornbread. It was extremely flavorful and soft, melted in the mouth – best cornbread I’ve had in my life! For my entree I had the pappardelle braised short rib ragu. The ragu was incredible, easily the best decision I’ve made for a meal. They also had specials for drinks – I had scorpio season mezcal and the apple picking. Oak Bistro is a must if you’re visiting Inman Square. Unlike myself, you should run and not walk to secure a table/seat when you’re there!

A Must-Visit Spot!
I absolutely loved this restaurant! The atmosphere is super cool, perfect for a romantic date or a fun night out with friends.
The drinks are fantastic, not only delicious but also beautifully presented.
And the food? Wow. Every dish I ordered was simply amazing. The standout for me was definitely the croquettes, please do yourself a favor and try them! Hands down the best I’ve ever had.
All the other dishes were just as impressive: incredibly flavorful, well-portioned, and beautifully plated.
And I can’t forget to mention the attentive and friendly service. Bruna, our waitress, was absolutely wonderful, truly top-notch.
I’ll definitely be coming back!

Very cute, chic restaurant. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. The food looked and tasted delicious! It was my birthday and they gave me complimentary donut holes, which were so yummy. I will definitely go back. They even have late night hours (till 1 am) if you get the munchies in the wee hours of the morning.
