Very good service, nice atmosphere and great attention to details. Large variety of drinks and tasty food.Grilled Octopus definitely deserve a michelin star! Must have for every sea food lover.
Great place, great service. We had dinner tonight and had great time in Oak and Almond. The name tells it all, "almond" is never boring. We had wonderful beet salad, crispy calamari and fish. All were extremely delicious adding on to the lovely conversation and great service by dear Jessica. Thanks a lot. Love this place.

We stopped in here for one drink around 6 and ended up staying for much longer than we expected. The oysters were fresh and well-shucked, the charred octopus was incredible... we almost ordered it again, but went with the mussels instead and loved those too. Our cocktails were great too (obviously). We'll be back!

Was sat down at a high top at the bar while the dining room was empty. Waiter came within the first minute, we asked for a second to look over the menu, fifteen minutes later no one came back to even put in a drink order. We got up and left, place was dead with waiters talking.

The food was very good, but the service was outstanding. Very attentive and professional. We went with a group of eight, and they took amazing care of us.

I did it again. I got so wrapped up in my experience I totally forgot to take pictures. So let me try and paint a picture for you. The place is cool, great for large groups, or more intimate settings. You can see all the going on in the kitchen, which I really like. Drinks are great, started with a spicy margarita, followed by a lovely red wine (they have a great selection of wines) we had mussels, shrimp special of the day, and Brussels sprouts, all the appetizers were sensational. For entree we had the sausage pasta, which was Devine, the lamb burger and the fish dish of the day. We stayed for almost 4 hours, chatting, eating and enjoying the restaurant, and not once did they try to push us out of our table. Love that. I’ll be back. And I’ll take pictures next time. I promise.

Oak & Almond was a great place for a Sunday brunch with friends, offering both brunch and standard lunch items. Its location is conveniently near the highway, and it is a good meeting spot for groups from several towns.

Went for Valentines Dinner with my Fiancé. We made a reservation on Open Table but the hostess didn't have us on the list. He quickly found us an open table and sat us down. The Waitress was very attentive and had great suggestions. The Mussels and Meatballs were a great appetizer and the Filet was cooked a perfect Medium Rare.

Food is full of oil, even the salads. Also, not sure about the quality of their fish. I had a stomach ache for 2 days after eating Branzino there. The vegetables with the fish were smothered in oil and were inedible.

What a fantastic time we had at Oak and Almond in Norwalk. Had brunch with 6 friends, and half of us had never been there. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was beautiful, and the service was outstanding. Ramon was out of this word, and took really good care of us. The restaurant was full, but it didn't feel crowded. I am excited to go back with my husband and try their dinner service.
