   The service was exceptional. Abby was fantastic, very personable. We came to celebrate a birthday. The drinks were very good over all, only one we disliked and only because of the garnish choice, my partner choked on it a bit. Meals were priced high but were tasty. The sharable meal really wasn't all that large. The meat to risotto ratio was off for Osso Bucco. Overall the atmosphere was very nice, music was quite enough to encourage talking but also very tasteful.

   Highly recommend this restaurant. The pasta is outstanding and the cocktails delicious. It’s expensive but totally worth it! If you like pasta then you must try this place! The spaghetti smoked beef ragu and potato & leek ravioli are amazing!

   Incredible service. Incredible food. We had arancini and the mushroom toast to start. Best arancini I’ve ever had with a crunchy exterior and a center oozing with cheese. The sablefish for our main was buttery and perfectly cooked. Delicious! The lobster pasta was exquisite. It wasn’t just a piece of lobster on some pasta, as you could tell that the sauce was infused with the shells and lobster essence and was deeply flavorful. we are anxious to go back and try something new.

   The restaurant is very nice. Service was good. They charge quite a bit for what you get. If I’m going to spend $50 on a main plate I’d better walk away thinking wow that was amazing. Thankfully I went for something less pricey. I got a $26 soggy pizza. Bruschetta was pretty good. Pasta portions presented well, tasted good but small. Waitress poured another bottle of sparkling water without asking. We thought initially oh that’s a nice touch. Lol got the bill and we were charged $10 so nice up sell. Cost us $10. Cost the business a whole lot more. Will not be back mostly because it’s too pricey for what you get. But the sneaky extra water charge just left a bad impression. However we were at Pyro their adjoining restaurant a few weeks earlier and really enjoyed ourselves. May see us again there.

   Gorgeous room with beautiful design. We went for an after dinner drink and dessert. Our waitress was really lovely and drinks were good but overall service was quite slow and we were sat at a table missing water glasses (& no one noticed that online 1/3 of us had water on the table) and a dirty table (I had to wipe off some sauce off the table with the extra napkin). Overall still a good experience and would try it again but seems like a few details could be looked after.

   Andria, thank you taking the time to leave us a review. I am truly sorry and disappointed to hear your experience with us fell short. It's disappointing to learn that service was slow and not up to our standards. I would love the chance to address this personally if you would be interested in contacting me at saelliott@loca.ca we can discuss this further. I look forward to hearing from you. Warm regards, Sarah

   This was our first dinner at ORO. The food variety & quality was excellent, our waitress was friendly & informative. My only complaints are…we ordered a side of bread with our main course & it never came. Not sure if we were charged, as we didn’t remember until we were home. Also, twice we were asked if we were celebrating anything, by the host & the waitress. I said we were celebrating my husband’s birthday. I guess being asked, I was expecting maybe a shared dessert or something to acknowledge, but unfortunately that didn’t happen. It would be a nice touch…or maybe don’t ask if we’re “celebrating” anything? Otherwise a nice dining experience & will come again, I’m sure.

   Thank you Tracy for the review. My sincere apologies about not acknowledging your husbands birthday, that was definitely a miss on our part and I would love to make it up to you! If you would like to reach out to me directly at saelliott@loca.ca and we can discuss this further. I look forward to hearing from you. Warm regards, Sarah

   We had a ladies lunch here and loved the new lunch special! It is excellent and such an incredible price for such beautifully crafted food. Soup or salad and a pizza or pasta for $25 and wine choices for $8!!! Our service was excellent! Dinner at Oro is also amazing and I definitely recommend that but if you are wanting to try out a less expensive option then lunch is a great way to do it! You won’t be disappointed! 5 stars!
