“ It's always a good time whenever I visit Uptown Bar &Restaurant great atmosphere amazing food and service. The owners and staff are very friendly ”
“ Showing homes in Oxford and came across this restaurant. I ordered the BBQ hamburger and it was fantastic. They must have just opened and as with other restaurants things are a bit slow, but not here. We were greeted and had service very quickly. With a short window to eat we were in and out in about 30 minutes. Great food, service and atmosphere. ”
“ My husband and I came here for a Friday date night and loved it! The food was excellent, full of flavor. I asked for a drink recommendation and Maurice made me an Uptown Mary-absolutely delicious and proceeds go to an excellent cause in honor of the great woman it is named after! We started w the boom boom shrimp which had some heat to them but were too tasty to stop eating. I had the rodeo burger w fries and hubs got the 8oz ribeye special w side salad and loaded mash potatoes. Amazing dinner, the steak was seasoned and cooked to perfection. Ranch alone was worth ordering a salad for. We will definitely be coming back! EDIT TO ADD: Came back May 2024 on a Friday with some girlfriends to celebrate a birthday! The BBQ glaze salmon should be against the law! I am a mac and cheese snob (dont like chik fila, cracker barrel, texas roadhouse, hardly NONE) and this mac and cheese was the bomb! Squash n zucchini was delicious as well. Everybody left full and satisfied AND the live talent sang my friend Happy Birthday It was a great night, soon to return! ”
“ Food is AMAZING! The staff is friendly. Cute, casual date night spot. ”
“ This was my first visit, and it did not disappoint! From the moment we walked in, the experience was top-notch. The food was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. The salmon and lamb chops were both outstanding—flavorful, tender, and expertly prepared. To top it off, the owner was amazing, ensuring we had everything we needed and making us feel right at home. The hospitality, combined with the fantastic food, made for an unforgettable dining experience. We will definitely be back soon! Highly recommend! ”
