the oak tree

What others say about us...

Business Today, September 2008

“Located in a quaint little corner of Gurgaon, The Oak Tree has thrived on word-of-mouth publicity alone. The well stocked bar has even been recreated to resemble age rings around an old oak tree.

But it’s the food that’s the main draw…”

Outlook, July-August 2008-10-22

“… What a fabulous menu. What excellent martinis. What a nice live band, and what great service. The Oak Tree is the newest but already the best dining experience Gurgaon currently offers.

Outlook, August 2008

“Once in a while you come across a place that stumps you… an unfussy neighbourhood joint serving good food with pride, and not requiring you to rob a bank before you visit.”

Time Out, August 2008

“…The Oak Tree is more like an upscale country tavern – all wooden and snug. If you live in Gurgaon, The Oak Tree is a good place to gather with friends or family, order a bottle or two of wine and spend some time unwinding.”

HT City, July 2008

“This cosy homely restaurant with fairly neutral yet comfortable interiors is one of the rare ones that serve spirits, beef and pork without a trace of self-consciousness. Prices are not extortionate, quality is surprisingly high and pretension is entirely absent.”

Indian Express, June 2008

“In a typical neighbourhood shopping complex, you don’t usually come across a swanky bistro serving imported sausages and meats grilled on lava stones...

…the restaurant is unfussy with earthy colours and offers an informal dining and lounge area. The 71 cover bistro lays out a multi-cuisine fare, with curries from Singapore, European style grills and creamy pastas…”

The Hindu, June 2008

“One must try the Minestrone Soup and the steaming Tom Yum Goong, which make for a good beginning.
The Oak Tree offers imported premium wines, single malts, martinis, cocktails and mocktails, all moderately priced to complement the theme of a bistro. The food also lives up to expectations.”

Metro Now, July 2008

“This is one restaurant that can be recommended to anybody and everyone, with the slightest craze for European food.

The minute you dig into your starters you feel proud of your choice for the place. One can easily see that the place is serious about food and understands a lot about European food. All delicacies are well cooked and elegantly presented, warm your senses just as you lay your eyes on them.

There is a vast collection of wines and cocktails for you to celebrate an occasion. Subtle flavours warm your throat as you sip in the rich selection.”
