Oakes & Evelyn - Woodstock

When in Vermont, I always like to have dinner one night at a high end or farm to table restaurant. When I booked online, I mentioned that I am a Chef in NYC. The restaurant is right before you enter Woodstock and is beautiful. I was properly greeted when I entered. I had a fabulous German Reisling with dinner. I ordered the grilled Spanish octopus to start, which was amazingly good and fork tender. The grilled sourdough bread with butter was so good! The Chef came out to meet me because he read that I was a Chef. We had a great conversation, and I said that being half Greek, any Greek would have been proud of his octopus. For the main course I ordered the halibut with corn, chorizo, and asparagus. Delicious! For dessert I had the pumpkin creme brulee with crumbled ginger snap cookies. Perf

Gnocchi were described as “pillows from heaven” and they were just that. Bucatini was excellent and flavor packed. Quaint, warm and inviting dining area only seating about 40 total. You can tell the chef puts heart and soul into the dishes served. Feels exclusive. Make your reservation ahead of time and enjoy this one of a kind restaurant just outside of downtown Woodstock

Amazing breakfast and host. I never ate a mushroom toast so good in my life. I could not even imagine how a dish can get any better. Even the coffee, clearly high quality beans, toast and made with care. Price for what you get is a steal.

Our favorite meal in Woodstock. Each course was meticulously prepared and well executed. My daughter and I enjoyed the cozy and historic atmosphere. 10/10

We came here for their prix fixe NYE dinner and everything was AMAZING. We loved the food, drinks and our server Lindsay was wonderful. We were hesitant to go because of the lack of reviews, but I am so glad we went! Highly recommend!
