Went here and got four dishes. Three of them were incorrect in some way. The Belgian waffles were raw.
The service was excellent, staff was very friendly.

Fantastic food and great atmosphere. We came back two days in a row because we loved it so much! Lexi was our waitress and she was fantastic! Very attentive and fun, and if we had more time in the area, we would likely be back for more! Don’t miss if you’re in the area!

Great food here! I’ve been meaning to check this spot out since it opened. Did not disappoint. I ordered corned beef hash w/ eggs and potatoes, also upgraded to add the mini Belgium waffle. Every item on my plate was great, will be going back to try more things. Worth the try if you’re curious.

“We had an excellent experience at Oak Park Chicken and Waffles.”
We had an excellent experience at Oak Park Chicken and Waffles. Thank you to our excellent waitress, Lexi, who made the experience unforgettable. We split the Senior Mexicano skillet with sourdough toast and it was delicious (and big, recommend splitting if you’re not starving) as well as a bucket of mimosas with cranberry juice. The prosecco was delicious, and everything was reasonably priced. Again, thank you to Lexi for serving us with a sincere smile and genuine kindness. We’re traveling for difficult reasons, the loss of a parent, so this meal was a warm respite from the weight of life. Highly, highly recommend.

My husband and I came to celebrate our 18th wedding anniversary. We didn't know what to expect because this was our first time dining here. Our server Alexis was absolutely amazing. She was very accommodating and knowledgeable of the menu. She even assisted us with taking photos of our incredibly gorgeous meal which we will post here. Alexis also gave us some great recommendations for what we should order next time which we absolutely will cuz we will certainly be back.
