Liberty Oak - American restaurant in Greensboro - 100 W Washington St, USA

The bartender, Michael, made the best chocolate martini I have ever had! The perfect end to a wonderful meal. We came for dinner, were seated fairly promptly. The service was great and the food was very tasty. Quite impressive for a Friday evening just before Christmas.

Glad I tried it! Only took a star off because it took about 15 minutes for a server to come over despite there only being a few customers in the whole restaurant. Shrimp and grits and crab dip flatbread were both great!

We chose this place very last minute before a show at the Tanger Center and informed the staff that we had to be out by a certain time and they were very accommodating. The food was good and the outdoor seating was a little cramped but not too bad. The staff was pretty good, it did take a while for the first server to come over but after that it was all OK. I’m not sure if I would come back myself, but if you are looking for a good meal downtown and have tried a variety of locations you would be doing yourself a disservice by not trying this one.

This was a relatives favorite place and we found ourselves in Gbo and decided to hit it up in her honor. Just as good as I remembered. I had the shrimp and grits and truly one of best iterations of that dish I've ever had. One dining partner got the Dynamite shrimp appetizer and the other got the Sargent Pepper. Sandwich with pasta salad. We all enjoyed it. Sometimes the old favorites are a disappointment but not this place. Kind of like that old face sweatshirt that fits better and just makes you feel good. Our server was great and that dining room is just too cool. Great bar and a small but eclectic craft beer selection.

For my birthday, I wanted to get lunch somewhere with an upscale vibe, and Liberty Oak fit the bill. Located in a historic building in downtown Greensboro, Liberty Oak does indeed have an upscale, sophisticated decor. Like a lot of places, they have a limited lunch menu with fewer selections than their dinner menu, but I wanted to be back at my hotel by dinner, so I chose their blackened salmon filet with a side of fries. Everything was tasty and well-seasoned, and I enjoyed my meal. Prices were quite reasonable given the atmosphere of the restaurant, but then again, this was lunch - dinner is decidedly more expensive. Still, I was impressed with my lunch here, and I'd be open to returing again to sample their dinner - I do make it out to Greensboro at least once a year.

Took my fam here over the weekend after some serious playtime at the Children’s Museum. Mommy and Daddy worked up a serious appetite chasing after our kiddos for hours and wanted something nice, but somewhere kid-friendly as well. So we landed here based off google reviews between both of our searches. Walking in, I was a little hesitant. The bar in front was nice and classy-looking and the setting felt a little more of an adult’s only vibe. After being taken to our seats though, that feeling lifted as they brought over a high chair and a bunch of crayons for our littles. The kids menu on back of their coloring paper also had a sizeable offering to choose from. Much more than the 3 or 4 I’m used to. Hubby ordered a burger and drinks that he enjoyed but ate before I could photograph so that’s that! I enjoyed the Bourbon Glazed Filet Medallions. Ordered medium rare and it was absolutely delicious. Tender and melted like butter in my mouth. The kids had the alfredo which was delicious as well. Overall I enjoyed our dinner although it did seem a little pricy given the portion sizes. Hard pressed to consider regular outtings here but I can see this for future date nights or for taking clients out for the solid food.

Food was ok. I got the fried oysters and crab cakes with Brussel sprouts. Fried oysters was a little more liquid than I would like, but crab cakes was good. Brussel sprouts need a little more flavoring, but with the bourbon sauce they were good. My friend said his steak was average. Customer service was amazing! And oddly... their water tasted really good. It wasn't sink tap water Overall good place and location, but not my #1 choice in the area.

We enjoyed everything here including salads, entrees, and deserts. Service was attentive and friendly. Food was cooked very nicely and even took special requests into consideration. The restaurant has an upscale vibe but still casual enough for anyone to come in and enjoy dinner. I’d recommend the salmon and jambalaya, both were very good!
