Warm wood, a marble bar & orange leather set a trendy vibe at this spot for thin-crust pies & pasta.
The food was all delicious, the servers were respectful, prompt and warm, and the environments was beautiful. Loss of 1 star to atmosphere as it's a little loud and boisterous when seated, but nothing that takes away too strongly from the beautiful room.
The pizzas at were definitely the highlight, delicious and satisfying. However, the mocktails were okay-ish, being quite average. The service, unfortunately, wasn't up to par as our server seemed annoyed throughout our visit.
What a great restaurant. We were so happy with the quality of the food, and the prices. The menu was pretty extensive and had a lot of great options for most tastes. The service was also really nice, and was very prompt. The atmosphere was great but could do with a bit of touching up of some maintenance items.
I had an incredible work lunch at 7! Food, service and atmosphere are all outstanding! You might try the grilled shrimp - I had them as a main course and it was the perfect lunch!
I took my boyfriend here for his birthday. Love the atmosphere/ decor, the service was great..we even had a sommelier give us wine recommendations and serve us— pretty cool. Loved the wine and cocktails. The pasta and wood oven pizza was yummy! Tartar was great too, not too much mayor but more on the garlicy side if you like that. I prefer a burrata with a balsamic vinaigrette and we didn’t love the olive all’ascallina but it was a great night and we’d definitely go back.
Had THE loveliest dinner at 7 this evening, out on the patio. We were fortunate that they were able to accommodate us without a reservation on a busy night. Our great server, Jason, was friendly and high vibe, and raved about his favourite choices on the menu when we asked for his recommendations. We went with two Palermo (mascarpone, figs, prosciutto + pistachio honey) pizzas, and the Tagliatelle al Ragu pasta. Woah!! All so good!! Three of us shared 7’s three desserts — tiramisu, lemon + strawberry torta, and panna cotta. They were all tasty. The tiramisu got top marks from all three of us, my son + I enjoy the delicately-flavoured panna cotta second, and the lemon + strawberry (blueberry the day we had it) torta took third place for two us, and second place in my husband’s opinion. Really can’t go wrong with any of the dessert choices, in my opinion. The meal, the vibe, and the service were all really, really enjoyable. Thanks to Jason for the his kind + fun service, for keeping the ice and water coming while the sun was on us, and for offering to take our picture. We’ll be back!
I'm not a fan of of giving a review when I do takeout but what the eyes saw was very impressive. Very nice restaurant. Very friendly staff and most importantly, fantastic Pizza. The leopard on the crust the freshness of the ingredients was top notch. The only downfall was hard to find this place. Maybe if they put more signage it was literally a number seven hard to find for a new man in the Oakville area
We had a great dinner at 7 Enoteca! My favorite dish was the tomato salad. We also had the grill shrimp 🍤 starter that was phenomenal.
Great place ! Love Bev , she is our preferred server and should be manager :)
Armondo added 1st class touch of hospitality
Came here to enjoy a dinner. Both the food and service was excellent. From start to finish, the server made sure we were taken care of. Ordered the funghii pizza , the pizza was delicious and flavorful. Be sure to ask for chilli oil to kick up the flavour a notch. We then ordered some pastas. One gnochetti & one duck ragu, both were delicious. The cocktails we ordered were great. The dining staff ensured our water was topped up and table was continually clean. Appreciate the service. Highly recommend to others looking to enjoy a nice evening out.
Amazing as always. Food and wine is always excellent. Beverly is a fantastic server. The host wasn t very friendly. It isn t quite as friendly as it used to be years ago.
WAITED FOR THE WHOLE 20 MINUTES FOR SERVER TO TAKE ORDER. NO ONE EVEN CARES ABOUT OUR TABLE.????
Love the food.
Very rushed experience. All they seem to care about was turning the table. Would not recommend as the food came out within two minutes of ordering. Great vibe though.
Good food, good service
Booked a table for 2 to celebrate my partners birthday. It was one of the best experiences. Food was delicious: the appetizers, pizza, pasta, and desserts were top notch, we even ordered a macchiato, and it was really good. The servers were very sweet and attentive, and the manager(owner?) checked on us a couple of times to make sure everything was to our liking. They care about the service quality. They knew we were celebrating a birthday so they gave us prosecco on the house. After we were done with dinner, they got us a cake on the house with a candle even though we ordered our own dessert. Overall, 5/5 will definitely be revisiting again and recommend the place to others.
Erin our server was excellent. She was very professional and attentive. We were there for a birthday and she definitely made it feel special.
Wonderful restaurant in a beautiful location Food is fabulous Food
Returned to 7 Enoteca and as expected, it did not disappoint! From the food, to the service, to the atmosphere, this restaurant is incredible We were lucky enough to have Ivan as our server again who was so thoughtful and kind --- My meal and the service was impeccable! Ivan was such an attentive, kind, and knowledgeable server And the food is easily top 3 Ive had in my life
Un ristorante cosi bello! Amazing selection of ingredients and combined in immaculate dishes. The wine selection is both wide and delightful. Attentive staff and warm ambiance make this a spot to return to.
We had an amazing dinner , we ordered the burrata , beef cheek pasta, agnolotti , and the shrimp scampi and finished off with Tiramissu. During dinner, service was good and we were happy. It was when we were driving home, my friends and I didnt feel well. My friend ended up throwing up everything we ate and I ended up with a very upset stomach and nausea. The only food that 3 of us shared was the burrata and tiramissu. We went to dinner on the 3rd of October 2024. Now we all just feel really sick and have really bad tummy ache with upset stomachs.
Great food, great service , great atmosphere. Thank you Ivan
Food
The pastas and antipasto I could do without. The pizza is always the star for us. The handful of times we have been here, the waitstaff was sub-par. I like the atmosphere, not for everyone but I enjoyed it!
My experience at 7 Enoteca was nothing short of exceptional! The food was absolutely delicious, and the staff provided outstanding service. I was especially impressed by the personal touch from the owner, who took the time to check in on our table. The attention to detail and warm hospitality truly made the evening memorable. I cant wait to return!
Ivan sure knows his stuff. Made for an excellent lunch experience. Ill be back.
Love going there. Best pizzas in town!
We had a wonderful night here celebrating my mom s 50th birthday! The night went on without a hitch! Our server was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The food came out quickly and was delicious! We were surprised with a toast for the table to celebrate the occasion. Thank you!!
The food was delicious as always. The waiter was really friendly, and she does deserve 5 stars. But, the 4 star is because even though I made a reservation online and by phone call and had a text number confirmation, my reservation wasnt properly booked. Only after some confrontation we received a table but asked to rush. That was a bit disappointing since we really liked the place and it wasnt our first time there.
Our new goto Date night restaurant. Great Food, Exceptional Service and Fantastic Ambience. Not very pricey either. It is always busy there so advice is to book in advance. Highly recommended.
Food still great (pizza is what I m referring to) .. but somethings changed in terms of level of service. Just not what it used to be. Sadly.
Went for a dinner with family, everything was absolutely amazing. The food was delicious, the service was fast, and the atmosphere was perfect. Jason was our sever. He is amazing. He welcomed us with an exciting energy, got to know us, recommended some menu favourites and made our visit perfect.
My wife and I shared a great supper on the patio in the summer. Food and service were great!
Exquisite
Delicious food and amazing staff.
The best Pizza ever had.
The 7 Enoteca we went to last night is the sister restaurant of Hexagon, the highest-end French restaurant in Oakville (this restaurant is basically in the top 100 every year). It follows a young and trendy route. The environment decoration and products are very personalized. The beautiful women and handsome men are all eye-catching. Hmm, I like...
Such an amazing restaurant. I went with my 2 friends and we all collectively agreed everything about it was outstanding. Our server Bev, was was such an amazing server and truly made our experience that much better. She was super attentive, sweet and just overall fantastic.
Bad service..server and GM including the owner very unprofessional. After three drinks waited half an hour for next but no response. Hostess served one drink to my friend and left. After half hour when asked still waiting for drink server response was I CUT U OFF you already had 3 drinks. If it s your policy should have informed when taking order. GM response was table was served 12 double drinks and it s Ontario policy. If it s policy it should be marked and advised. Server and colleagues seen smiling. Just be careful if going for drinks with friends. We were party of 8. If you are party person WORST PLACE!!!
Food was absolutely delicious. Exceptional service. My favourites were beef tartare, grilled octopus, mortadella pizza and tiramisu. The sommelier was really helpful. Will return for sure.
Really great service and even better food! Vegetarian options: Very accommodating Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating
Kevin was our server. He went above and beyond to make the night special. It was my boyfriends birthday and Kevin made sure to mark the occassion, checked in on us but also didnt pester us and let us have our time alone, gave us good recommendations, and everything exceeded our expectations. We had the fried olives, gnoccheti, and Palermo pizza. The pizza was WAY better than we expected. It was the perfect balance of sweet and salty. The mascarpone cheese on the pizza made every bite an explosion of unexpected texture and flavour. The gnoccheti was delicious, the sauce was so tasty and the perfect amount of spice without taking away from the flavour of the sauce. If I could rate Kevin and the food higher than 5/5 I would!!! Thank you so much!
My boys made a mess last night @7enoteca Pizza and apps with a few great bottles of wine. What a blast. Staff were amazing and the place was buzzing. Great times with great friends and great food.
Always an amazing experience. FOOD WAS EXCEPTIONAL
Walked in on a weeknight and had a great dinner here. There werent any patio tables available but they made an effort to seat us somewhere similar, in a cozy spot beside a large window. 11/10 on the staff, food, atmosphere, cocktails and overall vibes. Beverley was our server and was very attentive and nice. Other staff who walked by would get us drink refills or wipe down our tables from water or crumbs between courses. Hosts were very friendly and helpful. Head chef John was personable and introduced himself. Would 100% go again!
First, I d like to say there is no signage to help locate this restaurant. Secondly, we went on a day that had extreme showers in the morning and mid afternoon. We were seated outside and were told we would not be able to get a seat inside if it were to rain. Could not understand as the restaurant does not take reservations yet the inside had a few empty seats/tables, yet we were seated outside. We were not told that normal, still water would be of charge. I have never paid for simple water. The waitress commented on our age and I felt that was a bit weird. We had ordered the mushroom pasta which I didn t find the best. It felt like it had a lot of oil mixed into it and the whole look of the pasta was not the greatest. It wasn t as flavourful as I had thought it would be. Maybe their pizza is better?
I used to really like this place but after recent experience will not be returning. Food is overpriced and quality has gone down quite a bit. Waitress was incredibly unprofessional and made me feel very uncomfortable. I believe she was related to the owner (perhaps daughter). Overall bad experience.
Really expensive. I ordered the burrata appetizer which I know tends to be pricier (it was $28), but it literally came with 2 tiny and thin pieces of sourdough, like not even enough to finish the burrata. Gin and tonic was also $16 but it s Oakville what can u expect. Overall wouldn t come back, the appetizer was super underwhelming! Also a lot of children running around so don t sit outside!
Literally one of the best Italian restaurants in town, everything was just perfect. The atmosphere, service, decore and the food was great. The food was very tasty and everyone working there was just cheerful and happy to always help. Highly recommend Food
I truly feel like I m in Europe while dining at this restaurant, wow! Food and Service was phenomenal. Katie, who was our server, made our night that much more enjoyable. A new favourite for me! Food : 5/5
Food is great. Patio is lovely. Great all around.
This place is incredible, from the food, to the service, to the atmosphere. My cousins and I came here for a joint birthday celebration and our server, Kevin, was amazing. He brought us a round of proseccos (and a ginger ale for our underage cousin lol) on the house and was very friendly and funny and made great menu recommendations for two of us that were gluten and dairy free. They, unfortunately, don t have any gluten-free subs but there s about a page and a half of menu items that we could have. They brought all our food out together, without having to ask, which was really nice :) When our meal was over, he brought out two cute little cupcakes with a candle in each and the most delicious lemon filling It s also worth mentioning that the restaurant itself is beautiful, inside and outside, especially the fountain. The entrance was a little tricky to find as it was kind of unassuming (there s no sign outside) but we were told that s because if u know, u know which we thought was pretty funny lol The area it s in is also absolutely gorgeous. We walked to a nearby gelato place for dessert and then walked down to the lakefront and it was just beautiful! Some lovely memories were made and I will definitely be back! 10s across the board!
I absolutely love this place and its location. The ambiance is perfect, and the inside is well-spaced. The Burrata dish is terrific. I highly recommend this place if you want a nice, elegant, romantic place to dine out.
A must visit! Very authentic & high quality Italian food. Great ambiance and very hospitable staff.
We love Enoteca 7! Superb atmosphere, food and service. Always a wonderful experience!
Server Danny Thomas took amazing care of us. He was very very kind and made my experience great. Definitely recommend this restaurant
Stunning! The plates were presented beautifully and the atmosphere in the restaurant and outside on the courtyard feels high end and chic. Make sure to try the house cocktails, you won t be disappointed!
The food here is really good, the pizza is delicious. The pasta is really good but the portions are quite small. Overall this is one of the best Italian restaurants in town. Note: the only reason Im giving service here a 4-star is because they dont have a high chair for kids which is quite inconvenient.
Decided to show an out of town friend Oakville today as she had never been. Weather changed so we popped in out of the rain to 7 Enoteca to our good fortune. Warm greetings from the hostess, great space and a chill vibe was a good start. Kevin made it better with his food and wine suggestions, especially for my vegan friend. The pizzas were delicious and the service was excellent. My new go-to when Im in town or friends are looking for a place to go. Thank you!
My girlfriend and I visited 7 for a date night and were immediately impressed by the vibrant and beautiful atmosphere. Bev G, our waitress, delivered exceptional service throughout the evening. The food was exquisite, and our drinks were consistently replenished. we highly recommend!
I really liked it. Super pizza the Burrrata was the best I have ever tasted. Incredible. I suggest you visit this place. The desert ahhhhh! Don t get me started. So good. Get the lemon cake
Service was great and timely. Food was great and neat atmosphere. Highly recommend.
Next level, this place has the ambiance, amazing food and most importantly, top notch service, only the best!!
We went out to enjoy a nice anniversary dinner. The food was good, and the patio is nice, prices reasonable, however the service left us feeling like we wouldn t return. When we went, they were training their new staff. One of the new staff broke a glass and spilled a cocktail over our hand, purse and gift bag. They provided us with a new drink, and moved us tables. In the process, there were many different servers now checking in, including the manager. To be honest, it was overbearing. In this scenario, I d imagine an upscale restaurant service to remove the drink fee from our bill for the inconvenience of having to clean glass from my partners hand, dress and the spill in our gift bag. Alas, we paid the bill and left feeling weird about the whole experience.
If you haven t been to this restaurant, you re absolutely missing out. As a group of 7, not a single person had a misstep or negative comment. Summer was warm and friendly at the door, Ivan and Luca provided top notch service and anyone we met through the evening was just as lovely. The food was delicious.. I m still dreaming about my lobster linguine dish and the patio vibe was immaculate. Can t wait to return!
Another amazing evening at 7 Enoteca with good friends. For the past 6yrs Beverly has been our absolute rockstar. Always friendly with a smile, professional, fun, knows what we like & makes recommendations. 7 Enoteca is blessed & fortunate to have her as a big part of the team.
Best Italian restaurant in Oakville without a doubt. Great wine selection, pizzas are amazing and the service is always great. A must try! Parking: A lot of parking on side streets, and a few paid lots only a minute away.
Beautiful ambiance. Delicious food. Dressy place. Have to try this place for many reasons. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian choices. Parking: Plenty of street parking some paid some free. Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible
If you enjoy kids sizes portions for adult city prices, throw in rude service.. this place is for you! Plenty of better options, it s a shame because the location is great. Food
Enjoy the delicious handmade freshly baked pizza in Oakville. I especially recommend the Agnolotti seasoning for its fresh, refreshing and unique aroma. Unfortunately, the delivery speed is a bit slow. I had to wait for a long time to inquire before the pizza was delivered. The takeaway pizza was not given and I came to check out.
I wish we could give more than 5 stars. My boyfriend and I were recommended to come here for a date night last Friday and we are still talking about how incredible of a time we had. Not only did we order the same dish twice because it was just that good (the beef chuck pasta) but our server Ivan made the entire night, we are still talking about how incredible he is. He started off so professional, moving our wine and water glasses out of the way so we had more space on the table for our meals and didnt feel crowded. He crouched down to point to items on the menu so we could have a proper conversation with him without feeling like we were looking up at him. It was our first time here and he went through the entire menu, explaining each section, the favourites of each section and his personal recommendations. My boyfriend has a severe allergy and I have a food allergy myself, he made sure to explain each item we could both enjoy, the way the meal could be modified so we could enjoy our evening and he even took it one step further by bringing the cheese on the side of the pizza for my boyfriend to enjoy, after I said I would just scrape the cheese off so I could eat it. He gave such exceptional service and made us both feel so welcomed, he turned what would have been an ordinary diner date out at a restaurant, to an actual evening out and whole experience. He provided friendly conversation, and joked along with my boyfriend beyond just how is your meal and what are your plan for this evening, my boyfriend was able to joke with him and talk to him as if it was one of his own personal friends. The atmosphere was so unique, we both kept looking around at everything. We already started talked talking about coming back for our anniversary. Dietary restrictions: Nut, Seafood and Cheese
Great experience. Tasty food. Unique recipes. Very original!
We enjoyed another fabulous meal for lunch at one of our favourite Italian restaurants in Oakville. Service is always friendly, attentive and welcoming. The decor and lighting always puts you in just the right mood to enjoy your food and drinks like dining in a cozy wine cellar with fireplace. Today we ordered 1 pasta and 2 pizza and 3 cocktails for a perfect lunch experience! Agnolotti - oyster mushroom Palermo - prosciutto fig mascarpone pistachio honey Nduja - stracciatella cherry tomatoes basil Everything was delicious and perfectly prepared. Hard to pick a favorite as every dish had their own distinctive highlight! Pasta had a rich buttery sauce, pillow soft dumpling and lightly crispy mushrooms a very pleasant surprise and contrast in texture. The Nduja pizza was an explosion of flavour with the cured sausage and decadent stracciatella. The Palermo pizza possibly earned the VIP at todays meal with the perfect balance of sweet and savoury between the honey and figs juxtaposed against the prosciutto and pistachios and all brought together in harmony by the luscious mascarpone. Cant wait to go back and try again soon!
7 Enoteca is our go-to restaurant every chance we get. The cozy ambiance, attentive service, and exquisite menu keep us coming back time and time again. Whether its for a special occasion or a casual dinner, 7 Enoteca never disappoints. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.
Great as usual, our waiter Ivan was amazing. So good!
Great food, music, and ambient environment. Lacks light, and people talk a bit loud. Parking: Free street parking on Sundays
I really enjoyed the outdoor patio. Was a very beautiful spot.
Very good food. I had the pizza. It was done to perfection. Very nice atmosphere.
7 Enoteca is in a lovely location and the atmosphere is actually quite nice. It was busy but it this did not affect service and atmosphere. The service was great. The food was very good, not excellent, for example the ragout lacked a bit flavour. The pizza crust and dough were great, but toppings liked some flavour. It is not cheap in fact quite pricey. Overall, a very good food experience and will I go back? Yes I will give it another try.
Food was great
Food is nothing exceptional for the price you pay, average flavours. Decor and vibe is amazing. They however don t have high chairs for toddlers which was very surprising. Probably trying to keep the aesthetics of the place. Claudia our server was really good.
Great service by Ivan. The owners came to our table twice for feedback which was nice. The food was tasty. No complaints. We were there on a Friday, it gets very loud, definitely not the place for a romantic, intimate dinner on busy weekend evenings. We enjoyed ourselves, and will return. Thanks!
From the moment we stepped inside the place we weee received with warm welcome. All staff are extremely friendly and professional.. thats why they deserve even 7 stars. The food is very tasty and genuine, you can experience exclusive taste in every bite. The wine selection meets all tastes. But quantities are relatively small.. that s why food got 4 stars. One issue that could have made it an exceptional experience was the high temperature inside the restaurant.. that s why the atmosphere got 3 stars. Nevertheless, the whole experience is 5 stars.
Lovely experience and food
If I could rate this restaurant 100 stars I would. We were greeted by the friendliest host who brought us a glass of complimentary prosecco for my birthday. Our waitress was extremely tentative, kind and knowledgable towards the menu. The food was exceptional by far the best pizza in the GTA. Would highly reccommend this restaurant for a casual dinner or higher end event!
Food and service were exceptional!!
Simply Delicious! Food outstanding and service outstanding, in particular Ivan. He is exceptional. Had a wonderful date night! Thank you.
We love coming here. Food is always fresh and absolutely delicious. Special thanks to Sam for his excellent service. Looking forward to our next visit.
Delicious food & excellent customer service and a nice atmosphere
I ll come back when they get rid of that Danny dude.
We sat at the bar, had a couple of pizzas and a glass of wine. The pizzas were great, (funghi and carni), the service as very friendly and attentive and atmosphere was lively. Will certainly be back.
We had dinner there tonight for our daughters birthday. Loved the atmosphere! The Burrata, Funghi Pizza, Pizza Roma and Pizza Genovese were absolutely delicious! The Tiramisu, Apple and Almond Torta and Panna Cotta desserts were so good! All the servers provided excellent service. Big shout out to Beverly our main server and the owner for making our first time experience so welcoming. After our dinner, my sister-in-law loved it so much, she made a reservation. We will definitely be back!
Excellent service by grace, outstanding food, 10/10 ambience
Their tap water sucks and they charge you over 3$ for it (they call it filtered water )
The owner and head chef of this spot know what they re doing. My favourite spot for high quality, Italian food. Always excited to come here! The octopus is the best I have EVER had. Hands down! Ambiance is cozy and beautiful.
My friends brought me here for my birthday! Lovliest service, great food! Our server was a beautiful girl who was pregnant i forgot her name but want to mention she was just a joy to deal with x Had the best time! Staff is
great experience priced well for such a high star restaurant. Service is Amazing. 1 Star off because I didnt like my pasta but I loved the pizza. I will surely be back.
Fantastic evening with friends in a great atmosphere, amazing food.
Some of the best pizza around. A bit pricy, but worth every penny. Food
Overpriced. We celebrated an early Valentines last night. I ordered a glass of wine and when was presented I thought it was really small, just enough for tasting. $ 25.00 really!. No bread for the table? Ordered pasta. What a joke. Dont order the Panna cotta. Two spoonfuls. I wanted to go to fast food after because I was still hungry
Great place, been there twice and enjoyed two top tier meals. Will come again
Great service and atmosphere. The food is really good.
Their restaurant is also considered an internet celebrity in GTA, especially the charcoal-grilled pizza, which tastes very good. Because of this, we came here because of its reputation. We called to make a reservation and were told it was full, so we walked in and came to the reception. The waiter told us that if we walk in, the queue is already 30, which means there are 29 customers waiting in front of you. We were thinking of taking out, but the waiter said again, Im sorry because the business is so good, we dont accept take. OUT order. I would like to ask you if you open your doors for business, you will not accept customers waiting for a seat and you will not accept customers wanting to try your food. What is the point of opening a restaurant?
I loved the ambience and service! Only wish they had more vegetarian pasta options. The funghii pizza was very delicious- highly recommend it.
Went for dinner on the 22nd of December and our experience was spectacular. The food was amazing, however it was truly special because our server Ivan was the best, and we can say only nice things about their manager.
Went in to discuss their restaurant as a possible wedding venue. Sat down and spoke with the owner who was 1. Very hard to get a hold of. His own staff asked me to call him multiple times to remind him (this was just to get a meeting with him to speak about it). 2. Judgy, forceful as if it was his wedding and not mine and even passed some racist remarks. Wasnt a surprise that he never got back to us, I did message him once but just couldnt associate a place like this to the best day of my life. I will also say that their staff is nice and kind but everything else could be a pass.
What a great place to be, friendly, great food, great wine an awesome service
This is not the same restaurant as it was a few years ago even though its still the same owner. Ive chosen this restaurant for my anniversaries, for my birthdays, for my first date with my wife. You cant imagine youll get pizza first before the salad. Even the main course is faster than the salad I have often chosen this restaurant for dinner for five years. I dont think Ill be eating here again
We are lucky to have an authentic romantic Italian place in Oakville. Dinner for two or ten it s always a great night. Tiramisu is perfect.
Atmosphere was nice pizza was ok
Loved the prosciutto wrapped artichokes to start and the pizza was fantastic. Will be back again.
First time Ive ever been to a restaurant and failed to eat. I was alone and waited over an hr for a pizza, sure it was busy but thats a very unorganized kitchen if they cant push out one pizza in 1hr15mins. It was also the loudest place Ive ever been in. I couldnt even hear the server 2ft away from me at the bar. I left without eating because I could see the pizza chefs not making any pizzas while Im sitting there waiting for mine. I definitely wont be back, I dont care how trendy this place is, its not worth my time ever again.
I have been here a few times, and the food never disappoints. Went again this past Saturday, wait time was only around 45 mins or so to get a table for 2. Just hung around and grabbed a drink from another place nearby. The food was amazing. See pictures below, the Burrata I loved! It was a special, so hopefully they have it more often for others. The pizza was so tasty, great flavor combinations on the menu. Simple and flavorful.
Horrible owner or manager. Had an issue with 5 people wanting to have their own bills instead of 1 bill. Drop the attitude.
Omg it was the best... Unforgettable. Everything was perfect dont forget to have their rhubarb desert....YUMMEIiiii
I have tried to eat here every time i passed by the area. I was turned away twice for not having reservations even when the restaurant was empty. The staff was very rude, I will not try to eat here again because their attitude was abysmal.
I was so excited to try this place and the food was good but the manager was opposite of accommodating and totally arrogant. We felt like the manager was doing us a favour by allowing us to eat there. Never going back there again, although the pizza was 5 stars.
Danny and the management team were very unprofessional. Not welcoming at all
I have been going to 7 for years and it s one of my favourite spots. Today was the last day that I will go. The new manager, Danny, is extremely disrespectful. On a Friday night the restaurant is noisy - Danny told my group that we need to be quieter and not swear. Then we confronted him about it, asked if any guests had complained, he said No, no one complained, But I decided the rules tonight is no swearing. He has a lot of nerve talking to customers in this manner. There is a way to politely tell a group to quiet down but I have never experienced something like this. I will not be dining at 7 for as long as Danny is working there.
Good is good but worst manager ever needs to go back to hospitality school for a lesson. Stay away from this place.
Danny the manager is in the wrong occupation..he is extremely rude and disrespectful to the patrons. He shouldn t be in the hospitality business, he would be better off picking worms for a living. I ve been going to 7 Enoteca for 5 years+ that s my last visit there all because of that man. Get rid of him!!!!
It s a nice, cozy, Italian restaurant. We came in with no reservation on a Tuesday before dinner rush. They said they re fully booked but they can sit us at the bar. Our entire dinner no one sat at any of the tables around us, even until we left. So we definitely could have sat at a table. But the bar was still enjoyable. The dinner was nice, service was good. But our only complaint was that the server was completely rushing us. I haven t even finished my pizza, we ordered an entire bottle of wine and she was asking me if I want to pack up my pizza. She continuously was pouring our wine, and filled up my glass to empty the bottle with way too much wine. It was the first time at the restaurant, if we didn t feel so rushed we would have been left with more of a memorable experience. Definitely, make sure you make a reservation.
Great food selection and wines from Italy. A must in downtown Oakville. The seafood is super fresh and aromatic. I even got a free desert this past Saturday;)
Great atmosphere, meal, service and wine pairings. We had an awesome night.
Why ask if celebrating an occasion if you don t offer anything? Sad how restaurants are providing less and less, but outrageous drink/food costs. If you serve prosciutto, you should offer some bread for the table what does that cost? And if it s someone s birthday offer a glass of Prosecco or dessert . nothing/ so sad. I m done! Won t be back, nothing to make me want to go back. And basil should be fresh on a pizza not cooked. Disappointing. Restaurants have got to do better!!!
Atmosphere is amazing. Tomato sauce was very salty and a dark reddish brown, tasted overcooked. The fish was very good but on the small side.
A little Italian gem nestled on lakeshore in Oakville! As an oakville resident I stumbled upon this on a leisurely solo stroll along lakeshore one day. They offer indoor and outdoor seating. I had not made a reservation but they weren t too busy for a weekend night and the hostess was kind to accommodate me. They have a nice selection of pastas, I ordered the travioli which was delicious. They have an open kitchen with a wood oven where you can see the pizzas being made! I will be back to try The ambience is quiet, classy. Great for a casual dinner or romantic date. I was not impressed with the sangria drink but the pasta dish more than made up for it. Highly recommended. Vegetarian options: The pasta has vegetarian options Parking: Road parking, city parking lots. Can be busy on lakeshore over the weekend
Staff were all very friendly. Wife and I split the kale Caesar, decent taste, prosciutto bacon bits was a unique twist. Wife had the funghi pizza and I splurged on the Vitello pizza. Both were very tasty, the veal was exceptionally tender, the crust was wonderful, the oils, cheeses, etc all popped. Very good. Wife ordered a glass of white wine. When we first sat down we were offered flat or sparkling water. We both asked for flat. A glass bottle was brought out and left on the table. When finished I asked for another. Only on the bill I noticed those bottles of water were $7 each. Some servers carried around pitchers of water. We had no idea we had the option of free water, or $7 water. Maybe our mistake for it being our first time there, or theirs for never mentioning all the water options and that some weren t free. Didn t ruin the experience but certainly $14 + tax for water something I wasn t expecting to be on the bill. Good food, very nice staff, not cheap, but to treat yourself I wouldn t count it out.
Amazing experience! Our first time at Enoteca was very good. Our lunch was delicious and satisfying. The menu has many incredible things to choose from and some unique pizzas with toppings that are great pairings... super creative. The service was excellent. Great lunch!!
The new manager at 7 Enoteca has completely ruined this restaurant. After dining here for many years and recommending this place to friends, we had a very disappointing experience today and will not be returning in the future. The manager made us feel like he was doing us a favour by seating our group and warned us that the kitchen is backed up and that our food will take around 40 minutes to arrive, which we were okay with. After waiting upwards of an hour and a half and being repeatedly told that our mains are coming out shortly but never arriving, we asked to cancel our order. When I told the manager how long we have been waiting, he insisted that it has not been that long and his words were Sir do not lie to me . Rude behaviour aside, this place is clearly badly managed if it s taking them an hour and a half to bake a pizza on a slow Thursday night.
Extremely slow service. Nice location but not the place to go if you actually want to eat.
Palermo pizza, tiramisu
Really vibrant and great atmosphere, best pizza in town....
The decor of this place is very unique. It looks like youre dining in a vault, which it may have been at some point. The area is very nice and reminded me of Port Credit / Streetsville in Mississauga. The food was very good (I had the Tagliatelle al Ragu), but I think the portion was quite small for what I paid. The rent must be very expensive, which explains the portion size. Parking: Theres supposedly an underground parking lot nearby, but I could not find the entrance. There is lots of on-street parking and some smaller surface lots nearby, which are free after 6pm.
Amazing place. Had a great evening here for my birthday last night. The ambience is very beautiful and the food is delicious. Also the service is stellar! Very professional.
Amazing experience I was here for my best friends birthday and they pulled out all the stops. Great service and amazing food. The lobster pizza was incredible!!!
The service was excellent, the atmosphere was great but it is very expensive. For 30$ we only got 6 peices of ravioli and it wasnt even that good. The pizza was great for the price.
Ambience and Atmosphere - 5/5 Cocktails - 5/5 Food tastes good. The price definitely reflects the atmosphere and quality, but given the decent, but ordinary taste it seems overpriced. 3.5/5 Service - 5/5 PS - they charge you $3 per person for water.
This was my 2nd visit to this place. SECOND VISIT / REVIEW(Oct 2023) Same party of 6. Wr drove up from Niagara. For me and my partner, it came to $96 for one pizza, 2 drinks, and 2 waters ( it is less about service and more about how much you can gouge customers when you start charging $6 for tap water). Food quality has deteriorated, place looks dingy and worn out (that explains the dim lighting), loud & cramped. If you decide to go - be mentally prepared to pay more for less. Which is fine - if its a business tax write-off, you are trying to impress your date, or you have rich parents. I am definitely not going back. FIRST VISIT / REVIEW.(Oct 2022) We were a party of 6. We all agreed that the pizzas we ordered were the best we have had in a long time. Service was great. Our server was Colin, very engaging, friendly, helpful and came across as very genuine. Warm atmosphere but except for the bottled beer all the other drinks were slightly overpriced. Would go back again in a heartbeat.
Ive been coming here for years, have always been happy with it. The new manager, I think his name is Danny, needs to get into another business, clearly on a power trip. Never coming back.
Awesome quality and unique foods
Horrible management.
Rude managers
I dont live in Oakville, but whenever I am in the area I always dine at 7 Enoteca. Im not sure whether there has been a change in management or ownership, but my latest visit left me and my party extremely disappointed. The service and rudeness my party was subjected to by the new manager completely ruined our meal. I see from other recent reviews that this appears to be a common occurrence. Please take necessary actions to address the decline in customer service/management. I would like to enjoy the fantastic dining experience once provided in the past, as this restaurant is a real gem.
Had a great dining experience with friends at 7Enoteca tonight. A bit pricey - especially the drinks but you get what you pay for! Food was delicious, espresso martini was amazing. The service was absolutely 5-star - Ivan, our server, was fantastic. He was attentive, provided great suggestions and my water glass was always full. Having worked in the industry for many years, I was super impressed with his service. Will be back for sure.
I had my first experience dining at 7 Enoteca with a friend. We had an amazing time. The service was spectacular, possibly the best I have experienced. I appreciated the professionalism and ease in all our interactions with the staff. The food was great, no complaints, my allergies were accommodated. I look forward to coming here again and recommending the restaurant to friends and family. Dietary restrictions: Shellfish and nut allergy was accommodated. Parking: There is street parking as well as complimentary underground parking after 5 p.m. located off Robinson St., south of Lakeshore Rd. Bring the parking ticket with you to the restaurant and inform them at the front desk, they will handle the parking costs.
$3 service fee per bottle of TAP water!!! I find this incredible ridiculous, cheap, and dishonest!
Great spot on Lakeshore, great italian food and atmosphere
My wife and I celebrated our anniversary at 7 Enoteca, reveling in a mix of delightful moments. The ambiance, while inviting, was a bit noisy and warm, but that didnt detract from the fantastic experience. What truly elevated our evening was the impeccable service by Ivan, who ensured our comfort and made the evening truly special.As for the culinary journey, the fettuccine Nero was an absolute masterpiece, with flavors that delighted the senses. The grilled octopus was prepared to perfection, offering a tender and flavorful experience that left a lasting impression. Each bite was a testament to the chefs expertise and dedication to quality.
Attentive service with delicious food.....
Celebrated a birthday here. The whole experience was amazing. Food was delicious and service was top-notch. Definitely coming back here again!
Used to be my favourite restaurant in Oakville and I Would come here almost weekly. Not sure what happened, the food is still very good but the service/management seems to have gone downhill.
From the moment we walked into 7 Enoteca we felt special. The manager Danny was warm and paid great attention to us, the server (I think it was Ivan) was incredible and Luca the sommelier was so knowledgeable and suggested the best wine. This is one of my new all time favourite spots.
Their pizza is always incredible! It is my favourite pizza.
The lobster pizza is a must order, one of the best. Atmosphere is great, good experience overall
The space is nice and food is pretty good but at this restaurant s price point, charging $6 (plus tax and tip) for filtered tap water without mentioning it feels like a bit of a slap in the face
Will definitely be coming back. All the food was delicious and we had a great time! Great atmosphere!
Not my first time at 7 Enoteca but I did bring some friends from the East End and there comments at the end of the night were definitely worth the drive. Food was amazing, Fig and Prosciutto Pizza and appetizer was fantastic as well as the seafood nero linguini and the Service from the moment we walked in was top notch. Definitely recommend this place!
Excellent on all fronts, wish there was a few more options on the menu
Service and atmosphere are top tier! Beautiful looking place, very romantic for a date. The appetizers came out cold which was a huge disappointment to start. Salad was great tasting but the octopus was burnt. Charging for the water before telling people is a bad way to start! You want to charge money for water sell me something property. The menu is very limited, missing chicken dishes for people that don t want pizza, pasta, steak, or seafood. The pizza was unnecessarily fancy, do proper and regular toppings. Why put lobster on pizza? Parking: Free after 6 but very limited in this area
Very good Sunday evening experience. We went as a family and they were very accommodating to the party size and the dietary restrictions as well as being patient with our littlest diner. It was a lovely evening with great food and good drinks.
We were there for nearly 2 1/2 hours. Didnt receive our meals until 1 hour, 40 minutes. Its a busy place, but that doesnt excuse the slow service. The waitress was good. Not her fault. The food was very slow though. I had high hopes for this place. The food was average, the atmosphere was nice but the long wait times for eating brought this review to a two.
We were a large group of 12 people and they accommodated us, the food was delicious, very authentic pizza and pasta, Danny and Ivan went out of their way to make us feel very welcome, for a great dinner and experience this restaurant is highly recommended!
Food was fine, nothing special. They charge $3 for filtered water per person. Next thing you know they ll be charging you for the air you breathe.
All the food here is amazing - service is excellent and love the ambiance - feels like you are in Europe! I had the Halibut as my main it was so good!
My parents were regulars here so we decided to go and celebrate my husband s birthday. We were super impressed by every dish we had. Highly recommend trying the Short Rib, a new menu item, the Orata fish was super delicious and very fresh, and our ultimate fav pasta on the menu, the Chitarra! The service was also outstanding as they were super attentive to all our needs. This restaurant did not disappoint and we can t wait to come back!! Thank you for an amazing experience!!
Lovely decor but a bit too loud when full. Parking: Nice walk about a block away. Food : 4/5 |
Horrible service!! They lost my coat and let another customer leave with it. We still were patient and waited for the customer to come back with my coat. The manager did not even apologize once! No sorry nothing! To be a restaurant at this calibre and treat customers like this is disgusting.
So my wife took me for my bday today, my 46th. We get on and they sit a couple for an intimate bday diner beside a party of 15. It was so loud the entire night. The manager comes by and asks whos bday it is and we said mine. Than a white guy a few tables down gets a dessert with a candle and all. So my wife expected I would get it too. But no candle or bday desert for this brown couple. Guess you have to be white for that. Than they gave my wifes coat, which we got a ticket for, to another person who went home with it. They had to call her to come back and return the cost and we didnt even get an apology. Even Jack Astors would have done better. Food is sub par.
Had the most lovely Christmas dinner tonight with friends at 7 Enoteca. The food was wonderful but what really stood out was Charlotte. Her attention to detail and our inquiries was stellar. Her wine recommendations were spot on and she included Luca, the Sommelier, during our meal who provided a wonderful recommendation. Thank you Charlotte for being so warm and wonderful and making our evening bright. We will be back!
Absolutely a 5 diamond experience, Ive been to many places with great service and food but this place is outstanding. I dont want to spoil the experience with this review. Just go and enjoy your moment with these amazing people.
Food and service was amazing. All staff were very attentive to us and we had a great time.
Our waitress was so not friendly at all. She would not even take a group photo for us. We wont be going back.
Pretentious and rude doorman. Wont be back.
Been here a few times and it was good in the past, but tonight the service was bad. We tried to chase our waiter down to get another drink (he never looked at us while we had our entrees so didnt get to enjoy my meal with a drink) and he never stopped once to ask how the food was. Luckily the person who I believe is their sommelier noticed our glasses were empty and asked if we wanted a refill and I appreciate that very much. They also started charging for water. We asked for tap and they said they dont serve tap and charged us $6 for water which felt so cheap. At the very least if you NEED to charge for water, have good service. I dont think its as nice of a place as it used to be which is disappointing cause weve enjoyed it in the past. Not really the type of place I want to be spending $200+ on for dinner.
