Zara's BBQ in Oakville

I just discovered Zara s. So far I have had the Fattoush salad, cauliflower, and beef skewers. All three were absolutely delicious. I ll be ordering again for certain.

This restaurant is nothing less than amazing from all aspects, food choices, taste, owners friendliness, cleanliness, and the whole vibe is great! Go and give it a try!

Tikka sandwiches nice

Their Mixed grill ans coconut shrimp is a must try. Loved the restaurant , taste, quantity and flavors

Food

Great tasting Turkish-Iraqi food. The staff were very friendly and accommodating to my wife who was using crutches at the time. Ill return next time Im in the area.

Excellent Customer Care Which is lacking in this country right now. So appreciate your service Quality and good food.... Food : 5/5 |

The service was excellent and the food was very delicious, an unforgettable experience, the decor and atmosphere reflect a wonderful and comfortable character, the place is perfect for a wonderful evening. I highly recommend it.

One of the best dining experiences I have ever had, I will definitely be back, Everything was top notch, from the service to the quality of the food. 100% recommend

Delicious unique food, great service. Try their house special wine, very good!

Had an amazing experience at Zaras. The staff were very accommodating and friendly, and made you feel like you were dining at home. The restaurant dining area is smaller but decorated in a calming colours. The bathrooms are clean and free of the usual public bathroom smell. Felt like I was having a home cooked meal at home. The food was delicious and full of flavor. We had the lamb skewers and shrimp curry. We werent local to the area but it was definitely with the drive. Will definitely go back again. Thank you Zaras! Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian meal options Dietary restrictions: They were also willing to customize our dishes to accommodate our dietary preferences. I.e. keto and no-dairy. My shrimp curry was made without the curry to avoid milk and they were happy to do it. Service with a genuine smile the whole time

I ordered the calamari and shrimp curry and it was delicious. The portion was good for the price, and the staff were wonderful.

I am eating the amazing beef tikka and it is so tasty!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you Zara s BBQ!!!

Great food at very reasonable prices

The Burger was amazing if I had to eat every day I would. Custom service was amazing. They kept checking up on us. They helped us whatever we needed. overall, great place and people and I definitely would recommend. 5 stars

The owners and server were professional and hospitable. Family friendly service. We ordered chicken shawarma and kebab dinner. My toddler enjoyed the meal so much, especially the salad -so much he asked for another side order of it. It was such a pleasant experience. We would definitely go back.

the food is amazing ,very clean ,cozy and friendly people .i definitely recommend this place ,its very nice place to dine in ..

Great food great atmosphere Service was really good I would definitely go back there again to try more delicious food Food : 5/5

Great tasty meals.

Babe made good food

We are so glad that we found this spot! The service was so attentive and caring and the place felt very cozy yet modern. The food was amazing and the portion sizes were generous and the flavour was amazing. We got the mixed grill and the fried cauliflower. The meats were smoky and cooked perfectly and the cauliflower was really nice. Another thing I liked about them is that they provide you with a bottle of white sauce and hot sauce at your table which is a nice touch and as many people like to add sauces to their shawarma.

Nice place and atmosphere. Food is amazing and fresh . Chicken shawarma Mixed Grill Food : 5/5 |

Amazing food, the atmosphere is chill and jazzy like. The service is great!

I mean best of best.

Best hummus, falafel... and lovely people One suggestion to change up the music, otherwise perfection *chefs kiss* Food

The food and service are wonderful

Great family run restaurant.Clean and relaxing atmosphere. Selected the grilled chicken shawarma plate. I couldn t believe the size of the plate. Very tasty. Good value for your money.

I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant. The food is excellent

one of my favourite restaurants in oakville. everyone i have taken here has really enjoyed everything. food is spectacular and service is exceptional

Love the food at this place, one of the best places to eat in Oakville. A real hidden gem, and the staff is really lovely!!

Delicious food, excellent service, and great atmosphere. I would highly recommend!

I recently visited Zaras BBQ, and I was blown away by the entire experience! The Mediterranean BBQ here is simply incredible. Every dish is full of rich, smoky flavors, with a perfect blend of spices that makes the food mouth-watering. The grilled meats were cooked to perfection juicy, tender, and seasoned just right. The lamb skewers, in particular, were out of this world. Plus, the fresh sides like hummus, tabbouleh, and warm pita bread really complemented the mains. The portions were generous, and everything tasted fresh and authentic. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, with friendly staff who really go the extra mile to ensure a great dining experience. Whether youre looking for a casual meal or something special, Zaras BBQ hits the spot. Highly recommend if youre a fan of Mediterranean cuisine or just love great BBQ!

One of the best restaurants! I love their food and the staff is lovely. Definitely stop by!

Honestly everything about this place was perfect. Everyone that works there is so nice and had impeccable service. The food was amazingggg. Will definitely be coming back again!

I recently dined at Zara s BBQ and was thoroughly impressed. The meat was exceptionally flavorful and cooked to perfection, showing off a great blend of spices and tenderness. Equally noteworthy was the service; the staff were attentive and friendly, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates top-notch BBQ and excellent service!

I ordered a Greek salad with chicken- the chicken was good and fresh but I could tell the salad was from the day before. It was really soggy and super cold from being in the fridge. Was really disappointed. Great service and friendly people though.

We wanted to grab some shawarma to take home and randomly stumbled by this restaurant; what a pleasant surprise! We chatted with the owners (extremely sweet and hospitable) and were happily surprised by the quality of food! We ordered the grilled chicken shawarma; the meat, rice, and salad were all delicious!! Will definitely be coming back in the future :))

Food was amazing! So impressed on how tasty and fresh everything was and having the bottle of garlic sauce to use at will made it that much better

Amazing Mediterranean Food! This place is family owned and friendly owners. I went with my family here, and it was perfect. Prices are fair and parking is here too. Must try this restaurant for an experience and great tasting food.

Everything was exelent. Thats what was left. Lol.

Excellent food, great service was stunning wonderful people check this restaurant out you wont be disappointed!

Delicious, fresh food and wonderful service. We will be back and will recommend it to friends and family.

Tonight, our family dined at Zara by the Lake and had a fantastic experience. The restaurants ambiance was charming, and the staff were incredibly kind and attentive. They consistently checked in to ensure we had everything we needed, making us feel well taken care of throughout our meal. The food was delicious, with generous portion sizes that left us more than satisfied. Every dish we tried was flavorful and beautifully presented. Zara by the Lake truly excels in both service and cuisine. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delightful dining experience.

We both had the chicken shawarma plate and it was wonderful! We got out food very quickly and service was also great. It s a very calming environment with music at just the right level that is very mellow. Would definelty recommend and will be back if we re ever around the area again. What a great find!

Delicious food Great service Nice atmosphere Food : 5/5

Great service and huge portions! 2 apps and 1 mix platter was way more than enough for 2 people

A very nice, family-run restaurant in the beautiful Bronte neighborhood on Lakeshore Road. If you re ever in the area, and are craving some good Mediterranean food, you have to visit Zara s BBQ! Go for the Samoon shawarma, it s wonderful (and different from your typical shawarma wrap)!

Its a good place for halal food in the area. We loved everything that we ate at the restaurant.

We had a wonderful experience at Zara s. All our meals were delicious including the falafel, the vegetarian, the lamb, and the mixed grill. The portions were large and good value. The vegetarian plate had grilled veg with apricots and couscous, a really nice flavour. The service was very friendly and helpful. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegan and vegetarian options on menu.

The lamb is absolutely delicious. Customer service is immaculate, atmosphere is very cozy

Amazing food. Amazing customer service.

Beautiful restaurant with a great food,amazing atmosphere and great service. Our server was very knowledgeable and friendly. We highly recommend Zara BBQ in Oakville !

We are from Brazil and we spent our last vacation traveling to Canada. When we got to Toronto, we stayed in Oakville. Going out for dinner on our first day there, we found this place: cozy, clean, good food, good service - probably the best food we ate during our travel. We highly recommend it.

Came here with the parents . It was our first time and the food was to die for. Very fresh and tastefull . Will be coming back very soon:)

Friendly and kind staff. Loved the fries and the garlic sauce, would definitely come back for that.

Amazing service, and great food!

Excellent food with great service to go along with it

Great food and service

Delicious food and amazing service! Would recommend

The service was amazing and the food was even better. Would definitely recommend

Wow is the only word I have. I had the chicken tikka sandwich. I swear each vegetable must have been picked 3 min before I ate it. Everything was SO fresh and tasty. You could taste each individual thing as you ate! I stopped by on a whim and will definitely be back. Honestly blew my mind it was so good and what a great value!

It was an amazing experience at Zara s bbq. Both Luna and Doad are great hosts. Must visit place for mouthwatering Mediterranean food. Food

Great place with friendly staff! Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs Food : 4/5 |

The owners were so friendly, and accommodating for our large group (11). The cheese was a perfect dip with the warm pitas. Our mixed plate was so beautifully presented, the meat seasoned so well. We will definitely come back!

Absolutely outstanding! From the moment we stepped in, the warm ambiance and the inviting aromas promised a truly authentic Greek experience, and oh, did it deliver! The menu, a perfect blend of traditional and innovative, left us spoiled for choice. We started with a heavenly Tzatziki and a perfectly seasoned Greek salad, both fresh and flavorful. The main course, Moussaka, was a delightful journey for the taste buds - rich, creamy, and cooked to perfection. The staff s recommendations were spot-on, enhancing our dining experience with their knowledge and genuine warmth. Not to forget, the dessert - the Baklava was to die for, layered with nuts and sweetness, it was the perfect end to our meal. Exceptional service, a cozy atmosphere, and culinary excellence make this Greek gem a must-visit. Five stars aren t enough to capture the essence of this delightful dining experience!

I had a dinner there with 2 of my colleagues. Excellent food and customer service. Highly recommend. definitely Im going back. Shavan

Great food and place and very great service. Would definitely recommend.

Very nice organized restaurant with delicious food and great service. Definitely coming back

Amazing place, amazing food and amazing service

We have been in many Mediterranean restaurants, but Zara is the best by far. The staff and the new management are very nice and friendly. We ordered lamb and chicken tikka, the tase is amazing, we cannot wait to come back and try other stuff they have in the menu. Thank you for the delicious food

Zara s BBQ in Oakville is a gem! Under new ownership and Family-owned, the service is top-notch so friendly and welcoming. Fresh appetizers set the stage, we ordered a burger meal and mixed plate. Very delicious, healthy, and served warm. Portions were generous for the prices. A friend recommended it, and we re already planning our next visit!

Our family loves visiting Zaras BBQ. We love their hummus and the grills. I highly recommend this place.

This restaurant was excellent - the food was delicious and the service was so friendly. The chef was very kind and helped us make the best choice. The Mediterranean stir fry was a five-star dish. Thanks so much for the excellent experience! Would definitely recommend and will be coming back. Vegetarian options: Excellent vegetarian options as well. Parking: Ample parking at the back.

Vegetarian options: Various vegetarian options, the Cauliflower dish with Hummus is the best!

Amazing food. Service is always perfect, food is always on point, and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. Always looking forward to this place with family and friends, the pineapple chicken is a must try.

Might be willing to give it a chance again. They were advertising that the patio is open. And #PatioSeason was on according to their instagram ( Jan 26th posting, Jan 20th, jan7th weather permitting ). It was the posting on the 20th that got us interested to go for dinner tonight on the 26th. When we arrived to go for dinner, the patio is not set up nor is it heated( Very disappointed) Not sure why they are advertising it. In the middle of winter, you expect if there is a patio that it s going to be heated, especially if they are advertising it as such.. We we re looking for a heated patio As we had a guest with us, that wasn t ready to eat indoors as of yet. I think that was kind of offputting and the reason why we ended up going to somewhere else. It s a shame because it s been at least three years since I ve had a meal at the restaurant and back then it was very well put together meal. Please let myself and everyone know why the patio is being advertised for the winter if it s not heated, so others don t make the same mistake that we had to. thank : After the owner Responded: I have enjoyed your food in the past and look forward to visiting again in the future. I now understand that the company representing you online may not be managed by you directly, and it would be wonderful if they could make sure all information on the platforms they represent you on is accurate and up-to-date. This is not only for the benefit of your customers, but also for the the business .It could raise some concerns for customers, and possibly for you as the owner, if the team responsible for your online presence does not have a clear understanding of whats happening in the business. As the company representing your business online is seen by many as the face of your business, its important to be aware that any mistakes they make may affect the perception of your business. To maintain the trust and confidence of both current and future customers, its crucial to keep them informed and updated. Wishing you all the best. Vegetarian options: Looking at the menu online, there seems to be a lot of options for vegetarian s. Parking: There s a few spots at the back, other than that you might have to park at the bank Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant is on the first floor so there s nothing impeding wheelchair accessibility.

Tried to order through SkipTheDishes since skip had sent a coupon. Their advertising has been mentioning that skip the dishes as one of the delivery services for months turns out according to SkipTheDishes that they haven t been them for months. This is wrong. Once saw another person call them out on their Facebook page for this and the message was erased and skip is still being advertised . Not good

Stole my money. Never apologized

Mel is the best! Great staff .and the best food in town! Looking forward to my next visit.

Zaras comes across as a fine dining experience on the outside, but from the moment you first speak with any employee (who I assume are actually the owners) youre instantly feel like a family member. Theyre very kind and personable making for a delightful dining experience.

I ordered trout fish , was super tiny fillet fried out and not really fresh , the salad was good , atleast I had real feta,goat cheese. The Mazza tray I can say not really good for the price as well . Over all I wont go there again despite the other reviews, there are better options for the price Food

Weve picked up food to eat at home and weve eaten in the restaurant. It had been a few months since we had ordered from here and our dinner last week reminded me that I really like the food. The baba ganoush is excellent (the only place I ever have it). I tried the Mediterranean wrap with chicken and it was excellent and a huge portion. We ended up sharing this and a salad, we saved the mixed grill for one and the 2 of us shared it for lunch the next day. Large portions, reasonable prices, good food.

1st time Ive been here. The food was amazing and the staff and owner is great! I would recommend this restaurant!

Delivery needs an over hall. The descriptions on Uber eats are all over the place including get garlic butter with a pop, and water with a whole bunch of veggie toppings. Would love to be able to order sides as well specially when you want to purchase multiple wraps or chicken pitas .We are out of the service area for Doordash even though we are less then 7 kms away. Skip the dishes as someone else mentioned being advertised but not used. I know the food is really really good.

Great food, nice service, and amazing value. Will definitely come back

The food is actually pretty good... The last time I went to this restaurant was a couple of weeks ago. Their prices had gone up five dollars right around the board. Not only that, but they charge you two dollars for water. The meal that they charge $25 for is not worth it. And then? You add $2 for the water plus tip plus tax is waaaayyyy too expensive for what you get. I thought it was against restaurant policy rules to not serve water with someones meal. What happens if you choke? The waitress asks you if you would prefer bottled water or carbonated for the price of two dollars each. And when I said just water she replied I will get you tap water. Making you feel bad that I am not ordering a drink. I mentioned to the waitress that she should mention to the owner that the customers are not happy with this. Her reply it was... I just work here. When I left I said see you never again...

Everything is good Long live everyone

Wonderful experience! Doad thank you so much for being a wonderful host, server and cook! We ll be back!

Was very wonderful food and specifically Tikaa ... thank you Dorad you are number one

I really love that food and so delicious I cant wait I will be back the best food I ever test it

Excellent restaurant. Fantastic Kabobs. I recommend

Clean space, Delicious food, pricewise good, the food was done pretty fast and the service excellent.

Excellent delirious food ,service very nice and fast , I m so happy I whets to celebrate father s day thank you PERR .. really love it

Amazing Sheff and staf . The food was very delicious we will come back again.

The place is very nice, the food is very delicious, the chef is very quick, and the staff are very friendly. My son loved the chicken souvlaki. Amazing place

The food was wonderful. I ordered coconut shrimp and mixed appetisers for the appetisers. For the main dish, I ordered the lamb tikka, and it came with iraqi samoon bread, which was amazing. My husband enjoyed the Quzi. My kids loved the falafel sandwich. We were amazed by how fast the chef was in preparing the food. Overall, the restaurant is worth the visit

The new management is very good and nice. The food is sooo delicious and the Waitres is so friendly . I will come back again

Recently went in for lunch and the new management is incredible. Amazing dining experience, delicious food, and a great patio outside. 10/10 would recommend. Best Mediterranean food in Oakville. Mixed grill was my fav!

Food is always fresh and abundant. I like that it is a small family run restaurant. Always friendly and accommodating. My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Highly recommend Zara by the Lake.

I ordered the shrimp curry with Greek salad. While the overall portion was great, I would have liked a bit more salad (perhaps in a separate bowl) especially since it was an additional $4 to upgrade. I also would have appreciated it to be a spicier but that s just me. It was still delicious and unique! The server (Kim) was friendly and attentive. I was celebrating my birthday and often establishments make it special by providing a dessert or something small on the house. This wasn t the case and it was disappointing. That being said, my overall experience was great and I would return again.

Delicious food. Don t let the decor deceive you. This place is really good and service was great.

Lovely food and service was great! Very nice staff!

Bad food, the salad was stale. The chicken was not fresh either and over brined. Will not visit again

Very nice place the food was great and the staff was very friendly.

Every thing waz perfect... Food. Srevice. And new managmet superrr... Sure i will visit again

First of all I got the kebob meal and I really really loved it and the resteraunt is very clean to and they gave us 6 free teas which is so kind of them thank you so much Zaras BBQ.

Lovely, Cousy and warm place. The food is great, the service is wonderful. Highly recommend it. Food : 5/5

Very nice atmosphere and very good food Best BBQ chicken Thank you! Food : 5/5

Unbelievable. The beef Tikka sandwich I had was massive, the beef was juicy, bread was fresh. Hard to find places with genuinely good food with a fair price like this. Will definitely be coming back soon

My Mom and I had an amazing dinner here today. The service was fast and friendly. The food was delicious! Try the Hawaiian Chicken! Parking: free parking behind the restaurant is available

We ordered Mediterranean and the vegetarian cauliflower dish. It was all absolutely delicious, so much flavor, super fresh ingredients and great presentation. Id say it ranks as one of the best Mediterranean food establishments weve eaten at. The atmosphere is old but clean. New ownership took over within the past month or two.

First of all, the staff is welcoming and accommodating. The food is beautifully presented and is DELICIOUS! I had chicken Souvlaki which is remarkably good and the salads were all great too.

My family and I had an amazing lunch here today. the service was fast, the staff are very welcoming and friendly and the food was delicious

The food was very flavourful. The portion was more than enough. Great restaurant.

Best Chicken Greek salad I have ever had.Keep up the good work

Lovely staff, welcoming, pleasant, excellent service. We were a group of 5, none of us were disappointed. Food is really good, we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Highly recommend.

The new management is really nice the food is amazing the staff are friendly plus the price also good

We had amazing dinner with the family there

Best BBQ ever. Best appetizers and good price

Can t describe it. Wow!

Modern Iraqi and Mediterranean food; it is excellent and with a very good varieties

Best Mediterranean Food we ve had in Halton, definitely top 3 in the GTA. Have their Coconut Shrimp, you will not regret it. Amazing flavour, generous portions and chill atmosphere with some great music selections. It s a family operated business and the care, love and quality they put into each and every dish really shows. We re definitely looking forward to our next visit here! 10/10 would recommend

Great service with delicious food overall, very quick in making the order thank you Duraid and Lubna for your hospitality

You must try the fried cauliflower! It was amazing. As was everything else, frankly. Terrific and warm service. We ll be back! Vegetarian options: Great options all around!

A hidden gem with everything halal. The beef steak was delicious. Generous portions and great and quick service. Light relaxing music so you can hear and enjoy your company and your meal. The waitress and the chef are very nice. We ll definitely go back to try other options.

This is the second time visiting Zara s BBQs and its getting even better and better, the food was amazing and the owners are so nice and welcoming people with great service

UPDATE: this was the second time we are in this place and evwrything is getting even better, tried some new plates and they are all amazing. Service is great too The restaurant is open with great new owners that are very lovely people. The service is just perfect, the food is great, we tried 4 different plates and they were all very tasty with big portions and finally the prices are so affordable.

Very nice place to have a family dinner specially now this place under new management amazing food the fair prices and really excellent customer service Very friendly staff highly recommend

I love this place, Specially under the new ownership, very clean and friendly staff. The food is amazing and super tasty. This summer been there already a few times. Give it a visit , you will be happy you did. Tom

Great food. Service is excellent Very much recommended. Food

The food at this restaurant is truly exceptional it exceeded all of my expectations. Each dish was incredibly delicious, and the owners of the restaurant were exceptionally joyful and welcoming. I absolutely plan to visit again.

This place is has the best quality kebab meat! It s changed under new management and the menu is now more middle eastern. I m Greek so I ve eaten my share of kebabs but they just don t make them like they used to. This place does! Mouth watering food. Love it. The chef works so hard and by himself, but the food is still amazing.

Delicious fresh made food!

Me and my wife came very good priced Food large portions for good price Food

Amazing food and service!!

Recommended place and must try if you are craving for mediterranean cuisine! Very warm family owned restaurant and great food indeed!

The place is cozy. Food tastes great. Big serving. recommended!

Had a great experience looking for a pet friendly patio and great food and this was the spot! Enjoyed the mixed grill platter and loved it!

I must have a new owner and cook as it s not the same as before!

Excellent service and quality of food. I had the fattoush salad and lamb sandwich. Both were very good and obviously scratch made in house. The owners are very nice people as well

Delicious food and friendly service.

We had been to many other restaurants for similar cuisnie but Zara is Outstanding!!! Food was delicious , service was outstanding and portion size was good too. Definitely a go to place for lunch or dinner with family.

The best restaurant, food was amazing, service was very fast. We went three times in the last four months and will continue going each celebration we have. Food

Delicious lentil soup and lamb plate. The lamb was soft and perfectly cooked. The fries were coated and remained crispy. Great attention was put into the making and presentation of the food and decor. Parking: Parking at the back

Very nice place, the chef and the waiters are very friendly and the food is amazing Update: This was the second time, and I advise everyone to try Zaras BBQ food, which is healthy and delicious. The restaurant is also run by a nice family. Also, the bill was affordable . Thanks, Chef Doad

The food was delicious, tidy and clean, the service was fast and the prices were very reasonable thank you.

Zaras is one of my favorite mediterranean places whenever we are nearby. Polite service and superb taste. Food is always fresh, well cooked, and consistently flavourful. Very reasonable prices. Highly recommended!

This place has a lovely charm and the good folks managing it are very nice people, especially Luna, who took such amazing care of us. The food is delicious, and the stroganoff in particular is fantastic! We will visit again, for sure, and take our kids with us this time.

Wonderful meal at Zara s, now under new ownership. Prompt warm service and great home cooking. Such huge portions, enough for lots of take home leftovers. Loved all the meals of chicken with pineapple, kebabs and shrimp curry. Beautiful presentation!

Everything is good, the quantity, quality, service. Very clean even washrooms.

Went for dinner on a Saturday evening around 730pm. It wasnt busy there were two tables being served. We ordered the one skewar platter that comes with one chicken, one beef and one meat ball texture skewer. The platter was delicious the meat was a bit dry but the seasoning made up for it because we were focused on how good the food was. The rice and quinoa was just right! We had also ordered fried calamari and coconut shrimp that comes with babagnoush and hummus that also came with nan bread, the dips were tasty the fried items were good just a bit oily. Overall I would definitely come back, the food , service was great! The reason why one star off was because ventilation of the restaurant could be a bit better it was very smoky because it was an open concept kitchen. They are also now under new management.

Best shawarma in Oakville! Very friendly staff.

This such a nice place, very voz and the food is amazing

Amazing food and service, would recommend the beef tika.

I had such an amazing time, the food was soo good. The owners are super nice, I enjoyed supporting this local place.

I had such a good experience here! Food was amazing and fresh. Family owned, they were so kind and attentive The restaurant was clean, in a good location with free parking at the back. Literally everyone who dined around me felt the same way about the food. Definately will come again. Try the beef stroganoff and you cant go wrong with the chicken shawarma plate! Parking: Parking at the back is free and paid street parking at the front

Beef Tikka is really good and the staff are nice

Loved my visit. Food was incredible, the staff was very welcoming and warm. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good time and great food.

I love this place both the owners are amazing and friendly people. The food is to die for. Honestly its one of the best middle eastern restaurants in Oakville. The lamb shank was mouth watering and that chicken skewers were super delicious.

We tried Zaras BBQ under its new owners last week and have already been back this week for more!!! The food is fantastic, the portions are generous, the prices are reasonable... what can I say... this place got 5 stars from a family of 7 people of varying ages and including someone with a dairy allergy and someone who is incredibly picky. We are so excited to have this restaurant in Bronte!!!!!

**New wonderful** ** owners** Zaras restaurant is still a gem in Bronte for delicious Middle Eastern cuisine. The new owners and wonderful server are very gracious. The owner is a master with his flavourful dishes and freshly specially prepared sauces. They make your dining experience a delight starting with fresh mint & lemon infused water to serving individual wonderfully prepared dishes taking allergies into consideration without changing the delicious flavours of the dish. The portions were plenty and prices were excellent. *They also have takeout.* We wish the new owners and staff continued success and are grateful to them for such a lovely dining experience. Parking: Located at rear of restaraunt

Very cool and good place and food recommend any one to try it and I m really sure you will like it

Wonderful service and the food is amazing! Have eaten here three times in the last week because we love it so much.

We recently had dinner at the new Zara s BBQ on Lakeshore Road and loved it. The food is delicious and the portions are a lot more generous than when it was run by the previous owners. The new owners, Luna and Duarad make it an intimate and friendly dining experience. We highly recommend it as it is one of the better Mediterranean-style restaurants in Oakville.

Fresh delicious halal food. Friendly respectful staff.

Very very nice food

My wife and I were craving souvlaki and found this place with good reviews. We were disappointed as it did not taste like souvlaki and the sauce was more of a garlic mayo vs souvlaki sauce. The good points about it was that the portion was decent and the chicken tasted decent but it was not souvlaki.

Loved the selection! And the service is awesome...

amazing food and amazing service. Kim and Mel are wonderful hosts. it feels like home, the food is delicious. My favourite is the moroccan veggie, saganaki, and baba ghanoush. Prices are reasonable for the portion sizes and they have great vegetarian options, Mel is very accommodating. Kim is just a wonderful host and server. Would definitely recommend visiting.

This place was recommended by a relative, and it did not disappoint. Chef Mel made delicious meals for every person in our party of six, and server Kim was an absolute blast - just the right mix of funny and down to business. Highly recommend this little gem!!

Great food, nice people

A hidden gem. Unassuming, excellent food and fantastic service my Kim. It was my wifes birthday and she made it special. Happy to have found this place in Oakville. They make you feel very welcome and pay attention to details. One advice I have is to make sure you are hungry, the portions are mega I highly recommend Zaras.

Great experience, very friendly staff and very accommodating, delicious and very tasty food.

Great food! Even better owners who make you feel so welcome when dining there

Delicious food, great service and friendly staff!
