Reviews
"AOC is a culinary haven, boasting a James Beard award-winning chef whose talent shines through every dish. The Spanish Fried Chicken is nothing short of spectacular – the best I've ever had. The overall dining experience at AOC is a testament to exceptional food and skillful craftsmanship. A must-visit for any food enthusiast!"
"Amazing visit! Suzanne was so accommodating and even sent complimentary drinks our way. The food was amazing; halibut was incredibly seasoned and the steak was to die for. Recommend ordering sides as serving sizes are slightly on the smaller side. The fingerling potatoes were good but honestly a little under-salted. House made bread was soft on the inside and has delicious crispy crust. All in all we will be back—every single member of staff was on their A-game and I’ll be thinking about the halibut for a long time."
"I dine here frequently and I should've reviewed them sooner. A.O.C is always a classic place to visit. Always consistent. It never disappoints. No wonder it survived many years of economic climates. It has been awarded by numerous critics and is always hailed one of the best. I always feel "at home" whenever I come here. The best!!"
"Lovely atmosphere to have Sunday brunch. Made a reservation and was seated right away. The waiter was nice and attentive without having to ask for anything. My only negative was that my party and I were sharing all of the food and we requested that everything be brought out at the same time and it was not leaving some of the food cold. We were also a little disappointed in the Spanish Friend Chciken and waffles as it wasn't as flavorful as we thought it would be, but thankfully we also ordered the sweet potato hash which was much better. We came around 1030 am or so which was perfect because it can get really crowded especially on Sundays. There is some street parking and valet is available."
"The food here is absolutely delicious. We came for their prefixed menu on New Year’s Eve and every single item that we chose was absolutely amazing, it was also the perfect portion size for us. The crab fritters was so good and every ingredient that was combined for the dishes were so perfect. The cheesecake was phenomenal and I would definitely go back to try their regular menu."
