Oswald's is a lively restaurant with an active bar scene, offering well-prepared food and polite service. However, some reviewers did note that the food was not exceptional and the service seemed to lack enthusiasm at times. The restaurant has a high price point and limited vegan options, but the quality of the dishes is generally good. Highlights include the cassoulet, chicken soup, fish chowder, and delicious desserts. The location of the restaurant is a gem in Santa Cruz, offering sustainable food and solid cocktails with attentive service. Overall, Oswald's is a must-visit spot in New York City that offers a great dining experience, especially if you enjoy comforting and delicious food.
