Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

O X T W O boasts an "excellent selection of wines," with knowledgeable and "friendly staff." The ambiance is enhanced by live jazz and a lively, "buzzing" atmosphere. Guests appreciate the "fantastic" food options, especially the tarte flambée. While the decor may need adjustments for warmth, the venue remains a "great find" in Summertown.

Absolutely love the concept of 'small plates'. Each dish comes out when it is ready so the emphasis is on the food being 'just right'. Menu is really interesting and varied. Great service. Great ambiance. Magnificent wine list. Had a lovely birthday celebration dinner. Thank you!

What an absolute treat to have these two equally reputable companies come together to produce knockout offspring in OxTwo. The food was out of this world, real afternoon delight. Service and wine were also exceptional. Bravo gentleman, wishing you all the success for the future.

Worth the wait for SWB to rebrand, refurbish and reopen as OXTWO. We had the most delicious Sunday Roasts with Beef, Lamb and Pork options chosen between us. Superb food and considering it was the second day of official opening things look very good for Summertown dining. Well done everyone.

A great addition to the very limited restaurant options in north Oxford / Summertown. Excellent food: quality prioritised over quantity. Lovely decor & great service. Highly recommended!

Fantastic food, which is to be expected as its run by the same people as The Back Lane Tavern in Woodstock. Every dish is really well thought out! I'm a huge fan of the concept of serving multiple small plates, allowing you to taste different dishes in one meal. The place itself is lovely too, well decorated, classy yet laidnback atmosphere, with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Will definitely come back.
