Mixed species restaurant tabletops offer a refined balance of contrast and warmth while using the stability of quarter-sawn hardwoods. This Nutty Oak configuration blends the figuring only found in White Oak with the dark calm of Walnut for an elevated restaurant presentation. Every surface is hand-sanded smooth before receiving our commercial low-gloss finish for consistent performance during daily service.

Setting the standard with 100% Quarter-sawn hardwoods
These mixed species restaurant tabletops rely on narrow three-quarter inch staves that create a controlled pattern with dependable long-term strength. Quarter sawn Walnut adds movement while the White Oak provides clarity, and together they keep the surface stable under real restaurant use. Each top arrives at a standard one and three quarter inch thickness, but adjustments are available when a heavier or lighter profile fits your layout. Because the lumber remains consistent from batch to batch, designers can confidently plan multi-location installations without unexpected variation.
🔆 Designer Insight
These tops lean modern, and many designers sharpen that look by adding a reverse knife edge. Review the available profiles on the edge profiles page to refine the geometry.
Warm stains from Walnut contrast naturally with lighter Oak, creating a palette that communicates depth without overwhelming the room. This blend works well when moving between bar zones and main dining areas because it keeps transitions intentional. The commercial matte finish protects the surface while maintaining the organic clarity found in both species.
