Bar Oasis Springfield

Let me just start this review by saying, WOW! This was my first time eating here and I was completely blown away by the food and the service. The two ladies working today made sure I had everything I needed. So to begin, I walked in a little after noon when the restaurantwasn't busy. I soon learned that the lamb is not served until after 4pm. The waitress spoke with the kitchen on my behalf and was able to place the lamb as my entree. Red Wine: I ordered the Oak Trinity Cabernet. This was the cheaper of the red wine, but was good. I'm not a fan of overly sweet reds or too bitter. It sat perfectly on the palate. Pot Stickers: The waitress came out and informed me to order them fried next time. When I said I thought they were by default, she had them flash fried for me. They came out perfectly crisp. Not dark or overcooked on any part of any of the dumplings. Without the sauce, these Pot Stickers are flavorful. They honestly can be eaten as they are. I ate several of them this way. Lamb Chops: The lamb chops were cooked medium to medium-well. Served with Asparagus and Potatoe Wedges. They drizzled what I believe was a light cranberry sauce over top of the Lamb Chops. It wasn't needed but added a nice contrast to the taste of the Lamb Chops. They definitely made it on my top 10 restaurant for Lamb Chops. The only thing I did not eat was the Wedges, and that's because I don't normally eat them. Strawberry Cheesecake: You can taste the time it took to purree the Cheesecake. My first bite into this thing, I was shocked how good it was. I'm a big Cheesecake fan and I will most certainly be coming back for one. Just the Cheesecake alone. Yes, it's that good. I'm glad I was in the restaurant at the time I was to truly appreciate the food and the service provided here.
