The story can be summed up with a single statement… A dream of one woman, delivered through the efforts of her entire family, together, creating a special dining experience that captures the personality of a lost and beloved son.

Inspired by Justin and brought to fruition by Kim Oravetz, and Justin’s brother, Ian Oravetz, we welcome you to Red Oak Café. We hope you come back often and enjoy our “taste of Texas.”
