Dinner was amazing! The food and drinks were excellent, service was awesome and the environment was great for a Friday night out!! It's also a great spot for a group dinner and the bill was so easy to split however you want with their QR code! We ordered the plantains, empanadas, baja mariscada and baja parrillada to share as a group of 5 – everyone LOVED everything and we were perfectly filled up! The potatoes were a huge talking point, even after dinner, if you're looking for a delicious side, too. The atmosphere is very casual and lively – felt like a great start for an evening out with friends! Highly recommend :)

Our server Julien was very friendly and provided amazing service. He asked us if it was our first time dining, and given that it was, provided his top recommendations. The food was incredible - calamari, meatballs, and rigatoni were 10/10. We sat on the patio and it was lovely.

    Once again, Oakville proved why they will always be our first choice! From the valet through the amazing service and food, every step is completely top-notch. The new brunch menu is a keeper — GO GET YOU SOME PUMPKIN BREAD AND A LOADED ENGLISH MUFFIN WITH SMOKED SALMON! (I even had scrambled eggs as a side and they were the BEST scrambled eggs I ever ate!)
