The vibe is great. Bridget was a great server. food is always good here. wings and skirt steak is a must.

The local watering hole for Ridgewood. They remember who you are and what you like ti drink. The food is excellent, especially the wings and steak sandwich.

A great place to have a beer and cheers!

My absolute favorite place to drink when I'm home. Great specials when there's any football game on and all the food is great. Just remember it's bar food.

Food n drink were perfect. Great atmosphere. Loved our server Alisonn she was amazing!

This place is awesome......the service is great and the food is even better than the service...what more is there to say? Great service+great food= sensational day....2 thumbs up......

Great service, food is really tasty plus good assortment of draft beers m great local spot.

Very nice place. We knocked over a glass. They cleaned it up and had a fresh beer on our table in a flash.

Best food selection hands down. The chef is amazing! My weekly go to spot.

I went in to take home some beer battered chicken fingers and they were perfect. Fresh and hot, perfectly crispy and juicy chicken.

What a great bar, my first time there and everybody was extremely nice the bartender was great, good tunes on the jukebox.

Prompt courteous service meticulously cleaned they make you feel right at home and safe I highly recommend reliable good food good drink a really nice place to go you will not regret it

Chef prepares Great food. Whike the bar has a great selection of beer, wine and liqour. Bar and waitress Staff are very friendly. Some weekends there are live performances.g re at for groups, kitchen is open late and they deliver. Bar has been open for years. Bar also has a jukebox for those that wanna play something other then the radio

Food was amazing! Everything we ordered was freshly made and delicious. Will definitely be ordering from them again. Cheesy chicken balls are awesome, get them!

Cheeseburger very good large portion of fries…

Great local place. Smaller menu but everything is always done well. Food is consistent and very tasty. Usually order from here at least twice a month

The best local spot in ridgewood. A true authentic Irish bar in every way, form the fáilte to the accents. Guarantees a warm welcome and an awesome experience. Need more places like this around.

We have lived on FPR in Ridgewood since 1998, and I always passed over this place, assuming it to be just another neighborhood pub. Recently we had guests over who wanted to try their food, so we finally went there for dinner. The quality of the food was so impressive that I have been kicking myself for not visiting sooner. The shepherd's pie is outstanding: tasty meat filling, chunks of carrot and a fluffy layer of mashed potatoes baked to perfection. We also ordered the chicken pot pie: large chunks of white meat chicken, potatoes, carrots and celery in a creamy white sauce, topped with a freshly baked crust. Both dishes are clearly made on premises, not frozen, and it shows in the flavor. We have re-ordered both now on several occasions - both dine-in and delivery - and they are consistently outstanding. More pub favorites include fish n chips and bangers and mashed. Pair either with a fresh pint of your favorite beer and you can't go wrong.

Great cozy place to catch live sports. Good Sunday Football Spot.

Chanelle Parnizari

Had an absolutely fantastic night at The Live Oak! Victoria was truly the highlight of our evening. Her service was exceptional. The menu had so many amazing options that we couldn’t decide what to order, so we ended up getting a variety of dishes and everything was delicious. The drinks were outstanding as well. Victoria’s attentive and friendly service made the whole experience memorable. Highly recommend this place. We’ll definitely be back!

Jayne Walsh

Late night drinks. Decent beer selection. Great service.

Lindsay Bracey

Vicky is an excellent bartender. Extremely sweet and helpful. Couldn’t ask for a better bartender. Excellent atmosphere.

Linda Li

Dropped by for wings and fries and both were delicious! Highly recommend. The vibe inside was cozy - will have to go back for a drink.

Kelly Lake

Great local spot with good comfort food!!! Bridget is the absolute best. She is always so nice and friendly when we go in, and she is always on top of whatever we need.

Sharla Khargi

I am so grateful for this hidden gem. Jes, bridget, Linda and all of the staff THANK YOU for the best service! May the luck of the Irish bring you only happiness! Shar, Sean and Terry

Steve Wolf

The absolute hidden gem in Maspeth. The young lady who runs the entire bar and is the waitress , is charming with a wonderful personality and attentive to your needs. ( Makes a great Martini also) We have been there several times in the last two years and the food is exceptional and reasonable. I also want to congratulate the cook, who is exceptional. Lastly they now take Credit Cards. Good Food Great Drinks, Great Service. It's a Must for anyone looking for a nice time.

Nicholas Romaniello

I have been there personally. The owner is a nice lady. She is Irish so she knows how to run a bar/grill. Food is also good

JBR

Courteous professional. Lorraine is the best. Never had a bad meal here and since the pandemic they're service is even better. Thank you to Lorraine and live oak for keeping me fed without gauging their prices. I've seen that going on in other restaurants and you guys haven't done that. You'll always be my go to. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Laurie Daniels

Sweet little place, always super clean and well lit. Great food! Really! Way beyond standard bar fare. They also have awesome bartenders. I am partial to Xee and Allison because I used to work with those superstars, but I have never gone in there and had a bad experience with any other staffer. I am reviewing now, however, because they are offering takeout during the quarantine, and I just wanted to thank them publicly for it. All the delivery guys have been so sweet, so kind, working in dangerous conditions but never letting it show in their attitude. The resilience and commitment is so admirable----I can't wait for all this to be over so Brandon and I can be jerks about the jukebox and drink with our maspeth buddies. It has renewed my commitment to spend money locally. Hang in there, Live Oak! We love you! Thank you, and be safe!

Joseph Hands

Everything from ordering our food to conversing with the waitress was very friendly. The food was delicious and good portions as well. The price for food and drinks was average for New York. Will go back again when we are in N Y.

ANN-MARGARET BARNEWOLD

This is a hidden gem. They have super crispy wings. It is the only place I order the wings with sauce on the side. The truth is they don't need sauce. If your into the protein meals their chicken or shrimp Chipotle skewers are the best. I struggle not to order weekly as there stuff is always fresh. Great chef and wonderful staff of your eating in at The Live Oak.

Mike D.

This place is awesome. Just recently moved to the neighborhood and from day one they treated me as if I been going for years. All the staff is super friendly, and have a great selection of food. Friday nights they have live music which is pretty great, and If you are into sports there is always somthing playing. Great brunch on Saturday and Sunday. It's an all around great bar.. Can't go wrong here

Great local spot

Bartender was fun, and the drinks were cheap

Great no frills local pub.

Sweet lil local watering hole. Bar food offerings.

I like the wings some way how my husband didnt

Best local bar. Buy 2 get 1 drinks. Good bar food, jack wings and the apps are 👍...staff members are always very sweet.

Nice staff, great food, reasonable prices, it's a pity they don't serve veggies with the entrees, otherwise we haven't had a bad meal.

Good food, good service, Clare was our server, lots of fun, try the cobb salad, its huge.

Great little Irish bar with plenty of TVs and a decent tasting menu. Great burgers fantastic wings.

Love the Cobb salad with grill chicken and the steak and eggs.

Nice sports bar with god beers on tap. Food is pretty good too!

The drinks are good and the food even better. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. I recommend the chicken cheesey balls and their mozzarella stick.

Ab

Sweetest staff and great food! Guinness was not the greatest at the time.

Good drinks bartender is slow and distracted.

I've never had a bad meal in there

THIS PLACE IS CASH ONLY. Didn't know this before hand and saw nothing on the website that mentions it. Found out because only 1 menu had a piece of tape on it saying it. The waitress was very nice, friendly and quick to come over, take our order and bring our food. The fries were well down, crispy and hard. The pretzel was chewy and not very warm. But their beer battered chicken was great!!!! I would consider ordering again just for the chicken. Maybe I'll try something different next time.

dangela

Just tried to call and see what kind of beers they had on tap because my boss is super picky and we wanted to come here for our monthly meetings and she just told me to go online and look -____- like what if I cant? What if I’m driving? I have been a waitress before and you should always want to upsale and bring IN a customer. She SHOULD’VE mentioned the beers on tap on top of any happy hour hours! That’s what I would’ve done not direct me to the internet menu.. I called for a reason........

If I could give zero stars I would. This is a white trash dive. Bad quality wine. Lowly clientele.

Stephanie S

Ive been to this establishment twice. Both times the vibe was very “cliquey” unless you’re a regular don’t bother. Sad because this place is very close to me.

Ryan Schroeder

Came here twice. Once during covid. Once in 2022. I wanted to give a second chance- new season. The beer both times was flat. The vibe inside is unfriendly, and boring. Cash only, for flat beer. No Happy Hour, nothing interesting going on. Bad music, bad brews, full price, don’t recommend this place.
