Pine & Oak Tavern

The Write-Up

The full story

A clubby tavern inside the revived Rio Pinar golf course, with fairways beyond the patio and a relaxing, neighborhood feel. Guests come for the prime rib and the coffee-rubbed NY strip, plus the Pine & Oak burger and bartenders who remember your drink. Live music fills the room on some nights; when events pack it in, it gets loud and service stretches, so a quiet patio table is the sleeper pick.
