Gotta love White Dog. The food and service is reliably good and there are so many nooks of the restaurant, you always have a good amount of privacy.

Jesse's the best!!

Seriously, Jesse routinely provides the best haircut I've ever had. Due to his growing popularity since I've been going there, I'd had to book cuts with several other guys and I've never left dissatisfied. The atmosphere is casual, but stylish and everyone is friendly.

This is a review of the bar, not the restaurant.

The bar is incredibly loud before the DJ starts. Once the DJ sets up, you can forget about having any conversation, even at the top of your lungs.  The bar doesn't have much in the way of character or ambience, but it does have a good beer selection. I've only visited once, but in my experience, don't expect the bartenders to know anything about any of the beers.

We ordered several (obviously pre-frozen) appetizers, all of which were mediocre. The amount of food is substantial, but the quality is lacking.

In general, I think the bar tries to be too many things and, in the end, doesn't succeed at much.

Under the Oak is everything I love about the northeast (simple, unpretentious, inexpensive) along with the niceties of a high end brunch spot (thoughtful presentation, locally grown ingredients, attentive service) all rolled into one and conveniently located 5 minutes from my house.

This was my first of hopefully many visits to Under the Oak. My husband and I shared the Lancaster ham, cheddar and spinach quiche along with the raspberry scone. Both were delicious.

The only negative, was the size of the outdoor furniture... I'm 6' 6", so
i have a difficult time cramming myself into the tables at many small restaurants but this was on the extreme side, the tables would be more appropriate for kindergarten class. Thing is, the atmosphere and service made up for the discomfort, so they get to hang on to that 5th star.

Apathetic staff, subpar food, generic atmosphere.

I used to visit the Cosi at 12th and Walnut several times a week and never had a bad experience. I was excited when Cosi followed me on my move out to the suburbs, but this place is awful.

The service at this location is consistantly terrible. The staff always seems to be learning the register and are unaware of most menu items. The bathrooms are messy with toilet paper and paper towels sitting, damply, on any available surface.

Food - meh. Beer - meh. I can't say it was bad, but I would never say it was good. It's big enough for a group and service was fast, but each of the three beers I tried (IPA and both seasonals) and all of the food was bland and underwhelming.

We bought our wedding bands here and we could not be happier with the rings or with the service. Linda was amazing to work with. We had no idea what we were doing and she took the time to educate us on all of our options. This was not the first jewelry store we visited, but it was the first store where we felt like our satisfaction took precedence over the size of the sale. Can't recommend them enough!
