| - Let me start by saying that this was my favourite spot in Oakville, or even Mississauga. I moved from Toronto a while back and anyone who came into town, this is where I brought them. The burger was literally the best in Oakville, and me & my partner ordered it so often we had it down to a science which chef cooked it that day. Intended to host my birthday in the room at the front this year, with excitement. I just spent a couple months traveling & came back to the "new menu", which I'm not sure if its inspired by new chefs, new owners, or a new budget. Tried six dishes to date with two others, and only one was worth ordering again (O'Beef Melt). The items that made this place have been expelled off the menu, replaced with run of the mill options. If you're going to do a classic, make it memorable. The burger was huge, bloated (so you only taste beef), more expensive, without the special touch it once had. Adding cheese and bacon brings the price tag up to $20, on par with Spencers (Burlington) and Sassafraz (Yorkville), both gourmet options. The chicken fingers were simple, the tuna app included three tiny slices of tuna, hardly worth the $15 price tag. The goat cheese app wasn't warmed and boring, and the crostini was thick and hard (should be thin slices which compliment the pairings). All in all, we've lost an incredible option here in Oakville (please bring back the old options!)...luckily the live music is still incredible, so is the scene on the weekend. Just some feedback (from a few of us) that I hope is taken seriously xo.
