The Oak House - Auburn (CA)

5 /5 Stacey Randall: Everything was fantastic....food, service, atmosphere. I had the elk loin and my husband has the ribeye. Balsamic vanilla cheesecake for dessert.

5 /5 Robin Matthews: What a beautiful remodel to the beautiful building bringing a cozy and high end dining experience to Auburn. Our waiter, Eric, gave great recommendations and delivered wonderful service! We had an excellent meal of Elk, carrots, Polenta, Sierra mandarin salad, and local bread! Worth the price for special night out!

5 /5 Lori Townsend: This is a new place and it is amazing. The steaks are done exactly the way they should be. Sides are so delightful.ly delicious. Had the fried chicken starter, wowed. Service has got it goin on, and will even share a friendly short convo with a smile. And did I mention the chef. Definitely knows what to do. He is seasoned in the kitchen for sure. Everything has a special flavor that will keep you coming back. The venue is very picturesque inside and out, from the wine cellar, bourbon locker to the private dining space with the rock wall. Pretty wall paper surrounds you. This is a great place for a date night with your special person, to a fun evening dining with friends or family. The bar is gorgeous you can also dine at or just enjoy the craft cocktails. Make your reservation now!

3 /5 Byron Pipkin: Nice restaurant but I was disappointed in some aspects – here’s the rundown: Good stuff – the staff is friendly and attentive, the décor and ambiance is very nice, the Garden Bounty (salads) were very good (the Butter Lettuce & Roast Lamb was large enough to be a main course for some), very good Halibut dish ($42), Mac & Cheese ($16) Needs improvement – corkage fee is $35………ridiculous, especially for Auburn; my $75 NY strip steak was bland and overcooked – I ordered Medium and got Medium well, and it was sliced….why??? This isn’t Peter Lugers in NYC. Entrees served only with garnish items, side dishes are $12-$16 (how about a free scoop of mashed potatoes with the $75 steak?) for A lot of noise in the room where we sat I saw the menu in December (photo I posted) that had a 28 oz Rib eye for $78 but it was off the menu when we ate there in early January, 2026, replaced by a waygu steak dish (I think it was 28 oz for $128). Overall, $288 for 4 people before tax & tip………..steaks are overpriced and mine was mediocre at best. I probably won’t come back to the restaurant but will go to the Lounge (downstairs bar, with food; nice ambiance also).
