The food was good. The service was great. I like the decor as well. I do think the food is a little overpriced. The fried oysters are so delicious! The shrimp and grits are scrumptious!!! I highly recommend. Steak risotto was good and the burger was too. Our server was awesome! She was very friendly. I took one star off because the burger and steak wasn't cooked as ordered but it was still delicious! I didn't like the crabdip pita. The drinks were good as well. I will return. I also don't like parking downtown but that's not their fault lol. Overall this is a great restaurant!

Everything was delicious, absolutely fantastic, including the drinks. The service was friendly and fast. We had the truffle fries, steak risotto, shrimp & grits, flirtini martini & peach sangria. We will absolutely be coming back for important dinners, date nights & anniversaries.

My husband and I were here last night for Valentine’s Day and it was such a great experience. The food was so delicious and we even had dessert. Some of the best creme brûlée we’ve ever had. Definitely will be back! I am still not over the relaxing ambience and how delicious the food was!

Such a great experience! Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff and excellent food. My gal pal and I both got the salmon and it was amazing! The portion size is so large we both had over half our piece left to bring home. We got the truffle fries based on the waitress' recommendation and they were awesome. They're not very crunchy for the most part which I know lots of people prefer them that way but I am the exact opposite and love the softer ones. I got the Georgia peach martini and it was delicious as well as strong (in a good way). Great location and beautiful patio area and dining room. Will definitely be back!

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.

The food was really very good. Service was good, just a little slower than expected for the number of diners there. The waitress burst out in song with the music several times. [I actually liked that!] The atmosphere was good, and the dining room is small but comfortable.

Liberty Oak is truly a hidden gem of (downtown) Greensboro. The ambiance is peaceful, quaint, and elegant and the servers are absolutely phenomenal! From the moment we walked into the restaurant, we were greeted with smiles and friendly service which definitely set the tone for our entire dining experience. The server was knowledgeable about the menu, and made some great suggestions - one of which was the desert we ended up choosing after completing our meal (pictured). Our meal was absolutely delicious, and prepared with such fresh-tasting, flavorful ingredients. Each bite was delectable, delightful, and delicious! Overall, we had an amazing experience from start-to-finish, and will definitely return. If you are looking for a restaurant that offers both vegetarian and non-vegetarian friendly meals, has wonderful ambiance, and spectacular service, you have to pay Liberty Oak a visit!!

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!
