Oakwood Cafe

Loved every minute we were there. Get, very good.

Amazing food! We wanted to try everything so we just asked the waitress for her favorites. The Roasted Pork was flavorful, the Picadillo was delicious and our favorite was the Chicken Napolitana! The choice of sides is unique and fun with fried yuca, fried plantains, black beans, red beans, spinach and rice, mashed potatoes, I want to go back to Raleigh just to go eat here again!!! The service was excellent. This place has a real family run feel.

Very conveniently located a block from the Federal office building on New Bern Avenue. Unassuming on the outside, simply decorated but cozy on the inside. Picadillo was fresh and well-seasoned. Grilled chicken was seared crisp on the outside and tender inside. Fried catfish had a light, crispy coating covering juicy fish. Plantains were perfectly done, with just the right amount of chewiness. Rice was served with fresh cooked, not canned, black beans. Best of all, service was outstanding: friendly and attentive without being pushy. Our server made us feel like we had sincerely made his day just by showing up.

The food was delicious and the service was great. My wife has been to Argentina several times and says the food is authentic. Great place!

My top scene for tasty argentinian food. I can say this place does it for me. I'll return with my relatives. Prices are appropriate. This place has great reviews for a reason.
