    This was our second time enjoying “Table for Two” at Liv. It’s impressive overall & the staff makes every effort to make it a pleasant dining experience. The steak dinner unfortunately arrived cold. We mentioned it & our server kindly & quickly took our plates to remedy. Unfortunately it arrived just warm, definitely not hot a second time. The steaks also were not good cuts & had grizzle - was really tough. My wife’s chicken dinner was fantastic! There were two couples for our visit. We will definitely go back again since it was overall a very pleasant dinner. Hopefully they get better beef in the future & also heat the plates or something. I will say they make guests feel very special! Great staff!

    Dear Lindsay Allison, Thank you for your review of our LIV Restaurant. Our Mission Statement is: "Each Guest and Team Member will be treated as though the success of our business depends on that individual alone". We truly value all feedback we receive and it is very helpful to us to hear that our steak was not a great cut and had grizzle. It is unfortunate you did not get to fully enjoy your meal with us last night. I have forwarded your comments along to our Executive Chef for his review so that he can look into this further with our supplier. I am pleased to read your wife's dinner was fantastic! We truly appreciate your comments and 5 Star Rating and hope you will be back to dine with us again in the near future! Kindest regards, Catherine Mitchell Food & Beverage Administrator

    The greeting from the front of the hotel was fantastic! The food was good however, the service was poor. We were rushed out without notice by a server and advised housekeeping was coming in soon, followed by shutting off the lights while we were still dining. Our server, Kelly, was great and it’s unfortunate our visit ended like this.
    Liv Restaurant - White Oaks Resort & SpaResponded on 31 March 2025
    Thank you JessM for taking the time to let us know about your dining experience with us. I have forwarded your comments along to our Outlets Managers for their review. I understand you may have arrived just prior to closing time, however, you should not have been made to feel rushed in any way as we can accommodate late arrivals. I have asked our managers to review our dining policies, especially the one about about turning out the lights with our serving team. I would be happy to discuss your experience in greater detail and I can be reached at 1-800-263-5766 ext. 5742 Monday-Friday between 9:30am and 4:30pm - or you can respond on OpenTable if that is preferable. I look forward to the opportunity of speaking with you. Warmest regards, Catherine Mitchell Food & Beverage Administrator

    Greatest venue in the Niagara area. The only issue is that the washrooms are not disability friendly. Not sure how to make that better but still a wonderful place.

    Thank you Hal for your 5 star review of our LIV Restaurant on OpenTable! We are delighted to see you enjoyed your most recent dining experience with us. In regards to the washrooms not being disability friendly up in our LIV Restaurant, I do agree, however, we do have disability friendly washrooms available at our resort for our guests of LIV to use. The hostess or your server will be able to direct you to those washrooms the next time you visit with us. We look forward to the opportunity of welcoming you back at a later date!

    The break buffet is perfect! Variety of foods, including Benedict egg, sausage, bacon, French toast, juice and fresh fruits. Most important thing is children under 12 cost half price! Every Sunday morning, I enjoy the buffet in LIV, then go to swim in white oak with my son. What a wonderful morning!

It is fabulous to read so many great comments about your time with us -especially how you have a special Sunday with your son on a weekly basis with us at LIV for breakfast followed by a swim. It warms my heart to read this as the bond between a mother and son is very special in itself. I am sure he will treasure these memories you are creating for him forever. We truly appreciate your comments and 5 Star Rating and we look forward to welcoming you both back again next Sunday! Kindest regards, Catherine Mitchell Food & Beverage Administrator

    We are locals. Lovely setting in Liv Restaurant. Quite reasonably priced breakfasts given the white tablecloth setting. Delicious food. Coffee was free with our meal. We were given a little complimentary smoothie to start and ended with chocolate covered strawberries once they found out we were celebrating our birthdays. We weren’t rushed out- we were given time just to sit and enjoy the atmosphere.
