Its not perfectly flat and even but thats exactly what I was looking for. I believe it was stained twice and maybe 3-4 coats of some sort of acrylic poly whatever (I should probably remember what I used exactly if I want to do this more).

Side table to match is going to be made very soon.
Nice table! What kind of wood is it, where did you get it, and where did you get the legs?
