Latest reviews from Oaks

“Crowded and loud chain sports bar with slow service. They took about ten minutes just to bring out four beers for our first round. The food came out rather quickly, though. The waitstaff seemed extremely young and inexperienced, perhaps leading to the slow service. The food was your average bar fare with an attempt at some upscale-ish entrees. The chili nachos were very good, though. They came out on a manhole cover-sized plate. I seemed to barely make a dent in them, even though I worked on them for about a half hour. The wings smelled very good, but didn’t really look the part. They looked all dry and overcooked. The beer selection is nothing really to write home about. They have some craft beers on draft with some local favorites, but again, nothing too exciting. This is the kind of place where you’re gonna get the Bud and Bud Light 2.50 specials on a Thursday night. It’s an alright place to hang with some friends, but I don’t come here looking for an awesome variety of craft beer.“

“This is a fairly new addition to the chain of pizzerias in the Uno family. The Oaks location is unfortunately more like a TGI Fridays than a Chicago Uno restaurant. I’ve been to the original Uno in downtown Chicago and this is obviously nothing like it. This location serves more TGI Friday’s and Ruby Tuesday’s food than its namesake. Unfortunately, that’s what is popular, especially in the Philly suburbs. Thankfully, a beer aficionado won’t be coming here for the food. The spicy boneless wings are the best offering on the food menu and that’s saying quite a bit. But as hinted to, the beer-loving patron will find quite the draft list of enjoyable and tasty beers. I was able to try four new beers on just one, short visit. They have some great local selections from Weyerbacher, Dogfish Head, Fegley’s, Riverhorse, Victory and Yards. The bottle selection is quite ordinary, but you’ll want to come for the draft list. I haven’t tried one of their "famous" Chicago-style deep dish pizzas here yet, but the beer lover will love the usual American-style apps to accompany their craft beer.“
