"Named for the majestic oaks of nearby Presidio Park, this Mission Hills eatery helmed by Chef Brad Wise is perfect for a casual brunch, happy hour, or an intimate "chef's experience" tasting. Just don't let the fire fool you—Fort Oak is no log cabin. This historic, former car dealership is bright and airy, complete with a glamorous horseshoe-shaped bar and sleek, mid-century vibe. Chef Wise's menu is one intended for sharing. Try a bit of everything, from raw seafood appetizers or towers to hot appetizers like their cinnamon heavy lamb merguez kefta with a pistachio muhammara. Heritage pork chop with roasted Brussels sprouts and potatoes shows off the kitchen's flair for the flame, while desserts like apple crisp served hot in an iron skillet are the epitome of comfort." - Michelin Inspector
