From the vibrant streets of Barcelona to the charming villages of Provence, we observed a common thread—people eating & drinking with purpose & intention. It was the beautifully orchestrated symphony of flavors & traditions that inspired us on a deep level. The ritual of enjoying low ABV bitter aperitifs during "happy hour," savoring wine with dinner, & indulging in digestivos to conclude a meal—all done with a sense of appreciation & respect for the ingredients & flavors of each region.These experiences laid the foundation for Bar Copa—a place where we celebrate the Mediterranean way of life through simple, ingredient-driven dishes & a curated selection of low ABV aperitifs, wines, craft cocktails, & beers. Join us on this journey as we bring a taste of the Mediterranean to your table. Cheers to good food, great company, & of course, a full Copa!

Could not be happier with how our evening went. Celebrated our 10 year anniversary and Oak did not disappoint in any way, shape, or form. Excellent service, incredible food, and little unexpected touches to help celebrate our anniversary. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great all around restaurant.

Our first experience here was great! The server had great suggestions. We had a dozen local oysters and the calamari for an appetizer. They were both good. The Tilefish was delicious as was the jambalaya. Great selection of craft beer and good wine. No wait as we had reservations. Overall, we loved it!

The setting of the place set the tone for something a little different; it is in an old church. We had their Thanksgiving service and it was quite delicious. My daughter had their filet and I had the traditional turkey. The sides were plentiful and the desserts were unique, but not too large as to make them over-filling after the meal. Our waiter had a smile and easy that made us comfortable asking for some minor changes to our meal.
