    I had dinner on a Saturday night with a friend. Despite making a reservation on OpenTable, we had to wait 25 minutes to get seated. It was pretty busy as it was a weekend night. When we finally got seated, we were out at a table for 2 upstairs on their upper level which was more quiet. There was no space to hang our winter coats though, so I just had to fold mine and put it next to me on the floor (no table on my left side). In terms of the food and drinks, it was delicious. The food is of good quality, comes out hot and is of good portion size. The service is very good there- the servers are very attentive and professional. Overall, the Oxley has a warm, cozy vibe and is impressive for a gastropub in the Yorkville area of Toronto. I recommend coming here for dinner and/or drinks.

    Sunday Roast lunch/brunch was mixed. The roast beef dinner was enjoyed by those who chose it. The kedgeree was poor. The fish was dry and salty and the rice was over cooked and mushy. Very disappointing. The service was very poor. Inattentive staff member - never checked on our drinks. We had to refill our own water and had to wait ages to order dessert and even longer for the bill.

    Outstanding Value, Service and Location! Spectacular Sunday roast paired with a perfect cask ale. Yorkies the size of your face. Attentive and thoughtful service, and value you don’t find in Toronto anymore, especially in Yorkville. Can’t beat this place.

    Overall the experience was very good. Staff was very friendly, although seemed short staffed. My curry was excellent but my wife’s the quiche was just warm to the touch and cold in the middle. Not the first time. Ambience is excellent.

    My friend Richard and I enjoyed a really pleasant meal (Veal Sweetbreads with Spaetzle) and a dark, stout on draught. I love the vibe at the Oxley, their service was prompt and informed, and we were in and out with good time to get to our show.
