Oaklawn Southern Dining offers chef inspired dishes, in a unique urban elegant atmosphere! We're minutes away from the popular Paris Landing State Park, and Land Between the Lakes. Our food has flavors from across the nation, featuring some of your well sought after prime steaks and seafood! We are intentional about dining and hospitality, and your whole evening experience from a girls night out, golf outing, date night, anniversary, and of course, helping you take the edge off with one of our Paris inspired crafted cocktails or maybe one of our many bourbons! We did not fall short from an excellent wine or champagne list for you to choose from to compliment your meal or special evening! We also think you will love the view from the old Oaklawn Home, built in 1954, but "remade" with dining and hospitality in mind. Finally, we've added complimentary valet parking with you in mind! Reservations are highly recommended! See you soon.

    Our server Meg was fantastic. I ordered the beef rib and it was so salty I couldn’t finish it. The Mac-n-cheese was good as were the fries. My wife had the pulled pork tacos, which were very good.

    We were celebrating a birthday so wanted to go to Patti's. We were seated promptly at 11:30 in a beautiful dining room. Don't remember the name of it but it has the stained glass windows, large one facing street. Our server was Tracy and she was absolutely wonderful! So friendly and delivered excellent service. I ordered coffee and she made sure it was refilled or topped off as needed. I appreciated that. The food was cooked to perfection as usual! We had a very enjoyable lunch and my friend received a complimentary cheesecake dessert with candle for his birthday. That was special! Tracy told him she wouldn't sing but he had to make a wish! We plan to see you again in June when it's my birthday!
