This is the most expensive restaurant in Oakville. The aura inside is that of an elite restaurant complete with an air of pretention. On my last few visits the food has been delicious but the service quite poor (slow). It is not quite the complete dining I expect at this price point.

We have been to the restaurant for special occasions through the years, but the last couple of times our experience has been dissapointing. The food was mediocre at best, huge portions!!, but nothing special for the price you pay. The service has also deteriorated. The restaurant used to have the best service I ever experienced, with attentive and knowledgeable staff,... More

We have been to Oliver's several times over the years and have found the last couple of times very disappointing. It is usually our 'go to' restaurant for special occasions, however the last time was probably the last.. The service has deteriorated substantially and the wait time for your meal was ridiculous. If you don't order an appertiser then they... More

Hadn't been there in a while. Found the food disappointing. Soup was too salty to eat. Pasta was OK. Dessert tasted like store bought and stale at that. The maitre d was a bit stuck up and rude when I complained, nicely, about the salty soup. That is not classy! Didn't bother complaining about dessert because we could tell he... More

It was the last night of Taste of downtown Oakville, and we decided to give Olivers another visit. This was our second time there and we thoroughly enjoyed both experiences. I had the smoked salmon appetizer (and some of my husbands ceasar salad) and we both ordered the lamb. For dessert, we devoured their famous NY cheesecake. The entire meal... More

The restaurant is very classy and has a formal feeling to it. The food was good and the servants attentive. Prices are high and this is probably not a place you want to go to often, however great for a special occasion.

My wife and I tried this restaurant after walking by for many years. We were greeted nicely and sat at a table close to a large group when other more private tables were available and not occupied. The service was attentive but the ambience was very dark and felt very staid. The food was very expensive and frankly did not... More
