  • Had a great time here at black ox with my husband. They have a romantic and modern ambiance. Beef brisket poutine and lamb ribs were the best! Service was top notch. We came here on a Sunday evening, our reservations were made by a 3rd party vendor who invited us here to sample the meal. The place was conveniently located. The plaza was not too busy, had lots of parking. Storefront was easy to find with a bright lit open sign outside. Upon entering we were instantly greeted by the hostess. For some reason our reservation was not in the system but the manager John quickly came over and was still able to accommodate us. The restaurant was indeed packed and they had many reservations even on a Sunday night. We got seated in a booth. The booth was a bit small and tight in terms of spacing but it was sufficient for just 2 adults. They seem to have lots of seating and came accommodate large parties. Around 15-20 tables. We got acquainted with our server Chris and he was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. He recommended the mango lychee mocktail to me. And it was amazing! We also got to try the raspberry mojito, it lacked flavour to me. My husband enjoyed his pina colada (pineapple juice, coconut cream, nutmeg). The presentation of these drinks were professional! We started with the buffalo wing apps, they were really really flavourful. If you enjoy tangy flavours you'd enjoy the wings here. Next was the beef brisket poutine which I enjoyed the most! It's quite unique!! The fries were really good! Had amazing and very filling cheese curds. Gravy was excellent. The beef brisket was shredded and was good, but some parts a bit chewy if it was a larger piece. Id recommend the beef brisket to be shredded more for the poutine. We then tried their lamb ribs which came in a large wooden block. Presentation amazing again! It came with mash potatoes and steamed vegetables. Both were excellent sides. The lamb was very very good! Fall off the bone! I'd definitely recommend this. Lastly we ordered a creme brûlée to share. It came also In a very nice presentation block with dessert decoration. The creme brûlée was good but very thin custard layer. In between courses the manager and server always checked in on us to ensure we had everything we needed. They were extra attentive and had cleaned the tables between courses and had even refreshed our side plates. We noticed that the servers and hostesses were also very friendly to other tables. Some talked to their server for a long time sharing names etc. The hostesses who seated guests were also very attentive and friendly too asking if it's their first time at the resto, and ensuring guests know where the washrooms are located etc. As well they mention to all guests while they are seated that the restaurant serves non-alcoholic drinks only. They provide great drink suggestions. Their washrooms are fairly clean and quite modern. There are 2 stalls with doors. 1 larger and has a baby changing table. Overall, we had a stellar experience and will definitely come back again!
