I spent a few hours at Oeste on Sunday and probably needed to leave after an hour. Wait, I should have left sooner because my bill ballooned because I ordered so many drinks. The drinks are amazing. The food is excellent. Only feedback that is constructive is one drink was made completely wrong which may have been a new drink to the bartender. I’ll go back again. Such a cool place with nice music.

We came for early dinner after seeing a rerun of Check Please, on a rainy night with the rooftop closed; they were not yet busy. We were greeted warmly and seated promptly in the beautiful downstairs, and the service was nice. We had cocktails, and the bartender came to the table to talk. She and the waiter both kept their eyes on the room and at a glance they came around. The drinks were perfect, with several nice looking specials and all the standards available. The menu is fairly limited, they do call themselves a bar. The Street Tacos were a good tour of the kitchen, and the Red Beans were as good as we’d heard. Being local, I don’t really know catfish, it seemed crunchy to me The ambient music was perfectly – the highs were rolled off a bit, making conversation easy, and the bass was left un-boosted, it really filled and warmed the room. I told the waiter ho much I liked it, and she almost apologized: it will be louder when the DJ comes. I’ll come again to this friendly place, but before it gets loud.

Loved the atmosphere here. They had great music and the vibes were fun. The interior was charming, and the staff brought the fun with their excellent service.

The food was good. My favorite was the fried fish. I enjoyed that a lot. The buffalo wings were on the saltier side, but the lemon pepper was great. The burger was your traditional decent burger. I felt their ketchup was housemade, and I liked it a lot.

I liked their Hennessy espresso martini. I never seen that before but it was very yummy.

The food was incredibly hit or miss for me. Loved the street tacos, but the burger was a little tough and the fries very meh. The plantains were good, but the amount of sauce you get didn’t meet the requirements for the amount of plantains you get.

I got the Henny Espresso drink which was pretty solid, but was not impressed overall by the cocktail offerings.

The atmosphere as amazing! I walked in late at night the vibe was good. The rooftop was closed for a private party. Staffing seemed limited as there was no host for a little bit and took awhile for my server to come to the table. Once he came he was amazing. I couldn’t decide on just one thing so I ordered Mac and cheese with shrimp and the catfish/red beans and rice. The Mac and cheese was full of flavor and delicious. The help on top was so good. The catfish plate was a great portion but was not a fan of the lack of flavoring on the catfish. The red beans and rice definitely had a kick.

This place us great. We made reservations for a table and it was a good thing cause it was packed. The purple drink was very delicious as was the catfish and red beans & rice. The upstairs patio was beautiful and added to the vibe. The music was great and we really enjoyed ourselves. There was a parking lot right across from the bar.

Nice spot for a night out, after work drinks or dinner. The food & service was good (our server, I think her name was B from France was super nice). Definitely make reservations if you don’t want to wait or they run out of space. If does get pretty full. They also have a rooftop but it does get pretty cold. Check it out

I have been to this restaurant a few times and each time we are very satisfied with our experience. The ambience and the vibe are always very nice and I love the fact that they have a DJ that keeps the music spinning. It definitely is busy in the evening so service may be a little slower than what is expected. I usually have catfish which is pretty good. I decided to try the mac and cheese annnnd let’s just say the presentation is the best thing. It was creamy and hot, temperature wise, but the seasoning was definitely not there. The only seasoning that you could taste was garlic so that definitely needs adjustment (unless they happen to have had a back up chef that night who may not be familiar with how to prepare this dish). The rooftop is also very nice and it’s definitely great that they have heaters because it definitely can be very cool later in the evening and at night. Either way, seating inside on the ground level or on the rooftop level is a win win because you definitely can still hear the music and enjoy the scenery. The prices are very reasonable but for those who are unaware, if you bring your own cake from outside they will charge you a $15 cake cutting fee. All in all, I would definitely recommend this restaurant because ambience is a key factor along with the food and service. There is plenty of street parking which is free of charge usually after 6 PM.

Had an AMAZING first time at Oeste! Sat upstairs on the patio and our server was pleasant and helpful. I didn’t catch her name but she was of black decent with a strong accent.

The fried red snapper was delicious and the Mac & Cheese was even better. The music was on point and the vibe was great.
