Absolutely LOVE this place! From the food to the service, everything is simply flawless. As a vegan, I can confidently say this is a must-visit spot—everyone should try it, whether vegan or not! The menu offers a wide variety of options, each with a unique twist, full of flavor, and the portions are incredibly generous. The team here goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome every single time. The food is outstanding, but it's the combination of incredible flavors and top-notch service that truly elevates the experience. Thank you to the entire team for always exceeding my expectations! ✨ Highly recommend!

You can see, feel and taste the effort they put into the details that make dining here so special. We were wowed by the mint in the water, so different! My only complaint is that my girlfriend stopped talking to me when the food came - jokes aside… it was that good. Everything from a to z was phenomenal.

After a long day of training, a group of ten of us ventured to Maro's and it turned out to be exactly what we needed—a welcoming and authentic dining experience that exceeded our expectations from start to finish. The moment you walk through the door, the tantalizing aroma of freshly prepared dishes draws you in, whetting your appetite instantly. We opted for several shareables, and each was a standout in its own right. The K-SAQ was a delight—perfectly fried cauliflower, rich hummus, and the true highlight: the fried halloumi, which added a savory crunch we couldn’t get enough of. The baba ghanoush was also a favorite, beautifully creamy and seasoned to perfection. For our vegetarian friend, the Veggie Tower delivered in both presentation and taste. This impressive dish combined Moroccan couscous with a generous portion of grilled vegetables, all cooked to tender perfection and packed with vibrant flavors. The Fairooz dish, featuring a mix of beef and lamb, was superb. Each bite of the tender, juicy meat was balanced by a bed of vegetables and those irresistible Lebanese garlic potatoes. Another highlight was the Babel, a deconstructed take on kebba with minced beef over bulgur. This fresh interpretation brought out each ingredient’s richness—a true culinary innovation. The Lebanese Cepavi is a tandoori grilled chicken pieces, was a bit dry but full of flavours. My personal favorite was Lunch in Beirut, a plate of chicken shawarma, impeccably juicy and seasoned. The flavors were spot on, and the onions and peppers added a fantastic depth to the dish. We concluded with a delightful mint tea, a warm and aromatic finish that capped off our meal perfectly. Our host, Rukkayya, was exceptional. The place was packed, however, she was attentive, professional, and added a genuine warmth to our experience. Her hospitality made a great meal feel even more memorable. It’s rare to find both outstanding food and service, but this visit delivered on both fronts. All in all, Maro's is a must-visit, especially if you’re after an immersive dining experience around Oakville/Burlington area. We left completely satisfied and can’t wait to return!

Finally, I found a great Middle Eastern restaurant with delicious flavours and the perfect level of spiciness for me. The service was excellent, and the prices were reasonable. I highly recommend the cauliflower and the hummus. In my opinion, u have THE best hummus in Canada by far, I'll be back.

Went for lunch with a couple of friends and we were stuffed by the end! I got the Maro’s Special with chicken shawarma as well as the Tehran Fog. We were shocked by the portion sizes and it really made the ~$30 per dish pricing make sense and worth it. The dish was delicious - I only wish that the chicken shawarma we got was a bit more browned/slightly crispy like we are used to. The chicken on the spit looked more well-browned by the end of our meal so maybe it wasn’t in the ideal stage yet. Still really tasty, just a personal preference. I personally don’t think the Tehran Fog was worth it for the price, the tea flavour wasn’t very strong and felt a little watered down. The fried cauliflower was so good! Definitely an attention grabber but with the flavours to back it up - I like how the spices were nicely embedded in the little crevices of the cauliflower texture. Would come back!

The vibe, decor, service and energy of this place is wonderful. The service is efficient, courteous and not overbearing. They bring over pitchers of water with a mint sprig, it's refreshing and adds to the overall esthetic. There were 5 of us, we started off with mocktails and ordered with a feast of dishes. (See photos). Here are some the dishes we ordered. The food was FRESH and tasty made with ripe and ready vegetables, no pink tomatoes at this place!! FATOUSH K-SAQ Fried cauliflower, hummus, fried halloumi cheese, red muhammara, BBQ artichoke hearts, baba ghanoush VEGGIE TOWER Moroccan couscous, seasonal grilled vegetables, hummus, avocado, sumac dressing, dates, fried onion LUNCH IN BEIRUT Chicken shawarma sautéed with onions and peppers, hummus, beets, cucumber.

This authentic Lebanese restaurant is a must for anyone who loves Mediterranean food. The portions are generous. The food is delicious and fresh. The restaurant is busy and vibrant with energy. Staff are helpful and attentive. Great recommendations for our first time there. The shawarma had large pieces of chicken perfectly marinated. The hummus was fresh and creamy. The roast cauliflower is scrumptious with sumac and olive oil. Paired with hummus, it was a perfect meal on its own.

I recently dined at Maro’s Bistro and had an outstanding experience! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing meal. The food was absolutely delicious, showcasing the vibrant flavors of Mediterranean cuisine. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with freshness. A special shoutout to our host, Jess, who made our visit even more memorable. Jess was incredibly attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations that we thoroughly enjoyed. Her exceptional service truly enhanced our dining experience. I highly recommend Maro’s Bistro for anyone looking for a fantastic meal and top-notch hospitality. Can't wait to visit again!

Good food. Portions are really big especially for salads but they don t tell you when you re ordering that it might be too much. There were 4 of us and we ordered 4 salads plus other dishes. We could have just gotten 1 salad to share and that would have been more than enough. Rest went to waste which is a shame. Not sure if this is their normal practice or was just the server we got.

I am blown away by the wholesome, nutritious and beautiful plates me and my family were served. Not only that, we were warmly welcomed and served. SainSha, our hostess was kind and warm and made us feel right at home! The food came promptly and it tasted amazing. I hardly ever try new places for fear of having a bad experience in food or service, but this experience brought my hopes back up. Looking forward to bringing my family there again. Thank you!

I cant say the food was bad taste-wise because it wasnt, I was just expecting something different. I came here expecting more authentic middle eastern flavors and didnt get that. For the area its in I totally get it and wouldnt not recommend people give it a try if theyre looking for more fusion style dishes.

I have been going to Maros for years. I used to love coming to Maros. Not only have they increased the prices, but the quality of the food has gone downhill too. Please clean and fix the washroom. This is not acceptable. One of the girls service is really bad. We have had multiple times she has been rude or telling us not to order certain food that have been ordered multiple times and we used to love.

Beautiful atmosphere, pleasant service and delicious food. Very well put together menu and though it s a slightly higher cost per meal than the average place, I feel it s more than worth it. You can tell that care and high quality ingredients go into making the food here, which I m more than happy to pay a premium for. As someone who was raised in the restaurant industry, I have to make note of the fact that every time I come here, I see Mauro working away. That speaks volumes. It s clear his restaurant is his baby and he deeply cares about the customer experience, which always delivers, might I add.

Love the food in this place. But cleanliness standards are horrible.. went for dinner today and all their tables are unclean with a film thats left when tables cleaned with dirty cloth. Told the waiter that and he didnt even bother to clean it. Walked away and decided to eat somewhere where they take cleanliness standards to a better level . Thats disgusting.. shame..

Weve eaten at Maros since they opened in Oakville. It is absolutely the best Middle Eastern spot we visit. A while back while back we had an unfortunate occurrence and our meal was not to Maros standards. Last week we visited again and Ariel not only provided the best service we have ever had there, but the meal was outstanding. Thank you Ariel, the 5 star service rating is for YOU. Maro, keep doing what you do brother, the food rating is for you!!

I recently visited this restaurant. The food was very flavourful and best I had in a very long time. We ordered 2 dishes and I would highly recommend flatbread (Abu Leo). The only reason to give 4 star is the drinks. They are ice slushy which I don t like. They should mention that drinks are not in liquid form. It was freezing cold.

This place desperately needs a reality check. Ive been going to this spot in my neighbourhood since it first opened in 2016. In the beginning, it was awesome: authentic, great prices, great food, and enthusiastic service. Now its an overpriced and overhyped restaurant with consistently rude service and okay-ish food that has risen to the top of the rankings due to the absence of viable competitors in the area Agabi please come back. Time to remember your roots, Maros! PS: $23 for a 6oz glass of white wine, or $30 for a dish that used to cost $9.00 (Lunch in Beirut) is highway robbery, even for Oakville.

I booked a late work lunch with 6 colleagues after the lunch rush. Some of my guests were not adventurous eaters, and somewhat particular. We let the waitress/manager pick what came to the table - every bite was incredible. A few of my guests drink soda, and she had gone to the store around the corner just for them! Great food, amazing service, lovely atmosphere. Everyone said they were going to bring their family back for dinner soon. We had: The haloomi/cauliflower/artichoke board lunch in Beirut (shawarma) fish jalepeño chicken beef and potato We were so full we couldnt eat desert!

Maro s is generous in providing delicious portions of food, welcoming attentive service and a bright contemporary vibe. Tucked into Oakville, there were plenty of vegan options that satisfied our palette and were quite plentiful to be shared between two people and still enough to take home. From our server s recommendations, we enjoyed the K-Saq proud mama platter which is creatively plated and as stunning as it tastes (we asked for the halloumi to be served on the side instead for the non-vegan and they were happy to accommodate but you can omit it if you are only vegan). The Zanjabeel Style flatbread was also great and stacked with Middle Eastern style veggies and spreads. We took our time and never felt rushed to close the bill. Our meal felt clean and filling. It s rare to find places where you truly feel nourished and Maro s did that in every way! When we were leaving our lovely server suggested we take a look and walk through Narenj which is by the same owner and located next door. Really looking forward to trying it next time and visiting again!

I have been eating at Maros for over 5 years now and have seen why this restaurant continues to be so popular. Not only does the food just blow you away with flavours, from Here Comes the Bride, Veggie Tower, Lunch in Beirut and now the new menu items that let you try so many new things with a medley of food. The new renovations are a bit different from the lively atmosphere and decor - seats are a little small and tend to be more for an intimate dining experience. I do miss the more open table environment that had you eating in a more relaxed atmosphere with others there which elevated the livelihood of the place. When I invited my friend from Toronto to meet me at Maros this week I was a bit shocked at the new prices. Although the food does have so much for you to share and to bring some home, I found it a little financially challenging to order more than 2 items on the menu - when I would usually order three to make sure new items were enjoyed. And for the first time (maybe because Maro wasnt working ?) the flavours just didnt kick like they always did before. I will still go back for sure but may consider a different food adventure now that the pricing is quite a bit higher than before and TBH the seats needed to be a bit more sturdy. Vegetarian options: Veggie Tower is amazing!

If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would!!!! EXCEPTIONAL FOOD + OUTSTANDING SERVICE by our hostess Sainsha equals us returning for a second time during our mini vacay. Between our two visits - We had the K-Saq to start followed by Lebanese Cevapi, Here comes the Bride, Grilled Balkan Beef & Lamb Cevapi, Maros Special For drinks - the kids had Iced Lattes & we loved the Tehran Underground cocktail which totally topped off our experience. Sainsha was extremely attentive, and caring helping us with our questions as we had no idea how big the portion sizes would be. So listen to her when she tells you if it s too much lol ! She was also great in helping baknce our palate which we appreciated greatly. Topping all of that off with the fact that I am Gluten intolerant so having a variety of dishes to choose from totally made my day.

Love the food here - tasty and unique combinations. The meat and potatoes are amazing but there are also big and fresh salads. Portions are big, you could share some of the dishes with an adult or kids. Service can sometimes be on the slower side but is generally good and friendly. The connecting cafe/bakery has great pastries and viennoiseries. Only downside is how loud it gets when its full (nothing absorbs the sound). Hard to hear people youre with.

Last week our team went for lunch at Maros Bistro and we were not disappointed. The food was delicious, the portions were large and our server guided us well about sharing portions although not many of us chose that option. The place is small but the atmosphere is inviting. I ate the Miami affair and it was very delicious although a little on the spicy side. I also had Turkish coffee but didnt feel it lived up to its reputation. My colleague vouched that it was not authentic Turkish coffee. We had a pleasant and relaxed experience. Only two things could be improved. 1. We were more than a group of 6 but were paying individually. It was not clear if the 22% gratuity had been included in the bill as was mentioned for larger groups on the website. This caused confusion as the server provided no clarity. So some of us, liked me, tipped and others didnt. 2. We were celebrating our colleagues birthday. Usually upon hearing this, restaurants do something as a token gesture to celebrate the birthday. They either bring a small cake or any dessert and candle to wish the person. There was nothing done from this restaurants side. Other than this, I was happy to visit and would love to come back.

Wow . What an incredible dining experience! We aren t in Oakville often, but we have now been fortunate enough to go to Maro s twice. The first time was in 2019, and we ve dreamt about that meal ever since. Recently, we were nearby on Father s Day and went for lunch. Though all of the staff were incredibly helpful, Michaela (I hope I spelled that correctly), went above and beyond. I loved her dress so much, and she even showed me where I could get my own! We received amazing recommendations and as promised, the cauliflower was fantastic. Every bite was perfectly seasoned and delectable. Oh and the pastries next door were the perfect dessert. Thanks Michaela, the kitchen and all of the staff. You gave us another amazing experience and now we re going to make the trip back much sooner! I d have posted the photo of our plate, but it was half demolished before I thought to get a pic

We were a group of 7 that visited Maro s for lunch. Food - We had the lunch in beruit, Lebanese cavapi, babel and Miami affair. Favourite was lunch in Beirut but can t really go wrong with anything! Had ginger ale and some ginger beer too - stellar! Atmosphere - a little cramped. Been over a year since I ve visited Maros, seems like there were some changes to the aesthetics. Overall, it was good. One advice to management would be to add some lighting to the hallway leading to the bathroom. Service - there is a mandatory 22% gratuity for groups of 6 and above, so keep that in mind if you re thinking about overall cost.

We love Maros and get take out often. Everything is packed full of flavour, and while it might be on the higher side for price of Mediterranean food in the area, the serving sizes are decent and the food quality is great. I highly recommend getting the cauliflower (A MUST TRY) and the fish dish. I can t speak on the new atmosphere but heard the new renovations are beautiful! My only wish from this place is that all the takeout containers were biodegradable; the smaller containers seem to be but I don t believe the larger colour print boxes are.

While the food was good as most people here have said, the owner hid the tip amount when we went to pay. It was only when I was given the receipt that I could see what he generously tipped themselves. We were 6 people occupying the largest table. Our bill was over $250. It was only at home that I did the math and saw the amount was calculated on the full amount including tax. While this is a contentious practice I could let slide, the amount was equivalent to 25% of the full total including tax! Yes we expected the 6 people service charge but even the Bonacini restaurant we were at the week before only charged an 18% service charge. Never again. Responding to owner: While I appreciate the response, I do not live in Oakville so am unable to act on your offer. If suitable, please contribute the amount or value of the bill to a food charity or provide a meal to people in need.

I was just at your restaurant for the first time (after living in Oakville for many years) thanks to the suggestion of the friend that brought me to you. Wow! !! Where do I begin? Such a nice energy - of trendy setting and types of customers and staff in your location. The menu looked like a unique selection and our servers were fantastically friendly and aware of the most-liked menu options from past customers. The main server may have been in a managerial-type role(?) - if not, I would strongly recommend that she moves into such a role if it is her desire to do so (just an opinion based on the service received from her). She was extra-attentive, aware of our needs, kind, courteous and helpful in every way that we needed. Now - the food.... that is the REAL wow!!! Both the friend that brought me here and I are quite capable (and dare I say good/great cooks in our own specialties). This restaurant (in my opinion) is the type that any good cook or foodie would enjoy. A place that makes unique preparations that I did not imagine would be served so beautifully too. HUGE servings - so even ordering from the add-on list was way more than sufficient for us. And the creations are unique, incredibly tasty/savoury and very satisfying to enjoy. I am mentioning cooks will enjoy this specifically, yet we know that each person has their own taste for different foods and flavours. Anyone who likes to feel like they are eating a unique and creative serving of food when they are eating, would likely love this experience. I can say that we were very happy with the whole experience and I could not be happier with this restaurant. My friend was very aware of (and perhaps not so comfortable with it) the noise around us from a very full room of customers when we arrived, which required that we lean in to hear each others words while sitting only across a small table. For me, I loved the lively energy around us which cleared steadily through our lunch there and was almost empty by the time we left (likely just ahead of the dinner crowd). I LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS WHOLE EXPERIENCE. If you are visiting with someone needing, or using hearing aids, do keep this noise idea in mind and book/arrive at a slower time. The food quality and quantity is worth going. But hearing aids often enhance some noises that wearers may not like in a busier visit time. A young and energetic customer/foodie would likely love both the lively energy and the meal choices and tastes. For now, thank-you Maros - you have been for me, one very classy and incredibly tasty experience. I will be back!!! Many blessings to you all for continued excellence in your service, and my sincere wishes for your success in every positive way! Keep up the great work and thank-you again. I have already started spreading the word about you and will continue to do so! Kindly and Appreciatively, Hanifa

I can see the hype around the food, it s really good if you like modern middle eastern cuisine. Unfortunately, the service wasn t up to par, that s where they lose points. It wasn t as busy, yet the tables weren t fully cleaned, we had to wait a while for cutlery and ended up having to cancel part of the order because we realized it wasn t coming any time soon.

The food here is great, however the waitstaff isn t. We were greeted politely and then once we got our food, not once were we checked up on. The waitress even said if we have any questions about the menu to ask, but she never came back and sure enough we had a question. The owner (?) had to take our order. We also were deciding what to get for drinks but no one came so we didn t bother to order them and just got water instead. We had to ask for water while the waitress paid more attention to other guests (people who spent more money, bigger groups, rich looking people, etc). We spent a couple minutes even trying to get her attention but she turned away each time. Also, everyone around us got mint water while we got regular water. We questioned the waitress as to why we got regular water and she said they were in the middle of putting fresh mint in the bottles, yet when guests came they got mint water from the shelf with many mint waters existing there already. We were literally the only table with no mint water. When it came time for us to ask for a take out box and bill, that was a mission and a half. We literally had to stare the waitstaff down and flag them over. That took about 10-15 minutes in itself. Because of zero attention from waitstaff, I ve subtracted stars. If the service was as good as the food, there would be better ratings. I am disappointed as my friend and I were excited to come eat here. We felt invisible during our entire dining experience.

Middle Eastern fare is my happy place and always on a lookout for joints that do it well. Maro s invariably came up whenever food scene in Oakville was discussed, our sign to visit it sooner than later and I am glad that we found this incredible place. Every aspect of this warm bistro is well thought of.. shuts start by read the names of dishes.. every dish seemed mysterious and tempting.. I wanted to sample loads of it.. but was timely cautioned by our sever.. The portion sizes are HUGE.. go there with a big group of friends because these guys are generous.. So we limited ourselves at ordered just a few dishes.. STAR of the table.. as the name would suggest was a Fish dish named Here comes the Bride .. wonderfully tender and subtly flavoured fish fillets with just the right amount of crunch. Their Lebanese Cevapi was unique take on grilled chicken .. again big portion great side of salad. The dips need a review of their own.. simply delectable.. hummus , Muhammara paste.. we ordered extra to carry home.. The only dish that just didn t rise up to the standards of this fabulous meal was .. Lunch in Beirut .. the chicken Shawarma was too bland and chewy and the vegetables didn t work either. But the rest of the experience was superb. Amazing service.. great ambience.. the place was full and beaming with happy faces and friendly vibes.. Needless to say we big bag of leftovers home!!!

We visited on a weekday for lunch which was a perfect vibe. It wasnt too busy at the time we visited, so we were able to enjoy the sunshine coming in through their windows and take our time to enjoy the food! We had the Bella and the Beast and the Lebanese Cevapi dishes. They also give pita, hot sauce, and a garlic sauce on the side. The meals were beautiful and phenomenal for flavour. My boyfriend isnt a cauliflower fan and said this is the best cauliflower hes ever had (he loved it). Wed definitely go back again for both dishes, but there look to be so many yummy things. The portions were huge, and we left with a takeout container with quite a bit left over, enough for another meal. They also have many vegan/vegetarian options and were inclusive for my dairy-free diet! The drinks and desserts from their sister restaurant next door, Narenj, are also amazing! I could not believe how amazing the Vegan Raspberry Mousse dessert was! My boyfriend got a Pistachio Croissant and Scone to go and enjoyed them both as well. We will be back for sure! Vegetarian options: The menu is well labeled for vegan/vegetarian options. Dietary restrictions: The menu specifies which items are GF. I am dairy-free and our server was very accommodating and helpful.

Maros is a fantastic spot intimate and welcoming, offering a delightful array of flavorful dishes. The food was truly exceptional, crafted from fresh ingredients for a comforting meal. The vibrant, well-presented plate was not only visually appealing but also incredibly tasty. The friendly and welcoming host Push made our visit enjoyable. Adjacent to the restaurant, their café also caught my eye. Ill certainly be returning for another visit.

I ordered don t remember the name but it was tandoori chicken and baked potatoes. The food was good and well cooked, and the service was friendly. The portions are large. However, the amount of chicken was not comparable to the high price of the meal. The amount of potatoes was more than enough. In addition, forcing 25% gratuity for large numbers is not fair given that no special arrangements was done for my group other than just sending out the orders in advance.

The food is excellent, the portions are large, you can safely order one dish for two. BUT I was very indignant that I had to pay an additional 20% of the bill on top, just because there were more than 6 of us, although we asked to seat adults and children at different tables. I give it one out of five, it was very unpleasant. I ll also note this on Instagram, your reputation will go down a little.
