It simply didn't feel like a fine dining experience. There was no coat check offered, which is a basic standard for a restaurant of this caliber. On top of that, the parking validation wasn't working that day, adding a bit of frustration to the end of the meal. ​Tip: If you do go, try to visit on a Sunday so you can park on the street for free and avoid the garage fees.

I would get the sea scallops over the Capelletti, but both were very good. My halibut was cooked perfectly. Next time I want to try that beetroot pavé, it sounds great. We also shared the baked Alaska, note that is not lit on fire for you. I wish they sold the spiced chocolate ice cream separately. I would absolutely buy a tub to take home. It was amazing. The waiter was very kind and there was a nice welcoming, non-stuffy feeling to the restaurant. I wish they advertised soda products, especially for people who don't drink alcohol. Even during the fancy dinner sometimes a good pop hits the spot.

As soon as we entered we were greeted and seated upstairs in a lovely quaint dining room. Our waiter Kyle came over and explained the menu options. We both ordered cocktails and decided to try the tasting menu. It was a great decision as we enjoyed everything that was placed in front of us. While everything was amazing, my favorite dish that evening was the salmon with the perfectly crispy skin and the pork loin/pork belly. The amazing service provided by Kyle, the ambiance, quality ingredients and amazing pairing of the ingredients made for an unforgettable meal and I can't wait to return to Quatrefoil. If you like French cooking, I highly suggest you give this establishment a try...and for amazing service, ask for Kyle.

As expected in a fine dining setting, everyone was dressed up--thankfully, I was too! Once seated, we started with the French onion soup. I always judge a French restaurant by its soup, and Ce Soir exceeded my expectations; it was among the best I've had. For the main course, I ordered: *Spinach and Bibb with grilled chicken: I'm usually not one for salads, but this one won me over. *Mushroom Ravioli: Absolutely delicious, with great flavor. *Lobster Spaghetti: If you trust my reviews, go for the lobster spaghetti--you won't be disappointed! This was the best I've tasted, with perfect flavor and portion. *Rack of Lamb: Packed with flavor, though it may not be for those who aren't fond of a strong lamb taste. My only major complaint was the serving time. It took nearly an hour for our food to arrive, leaving us a bit frustrated, especially since our server didn't check in with updates, which I'd expect from a place of this caliber. Overall, Ce Soir is a lovely spot for a special occasion. I hope management takes note of the feedback, as it has the potential to be an even better experience.

We advised the server about the fact that my wife is vegetarian and if we can remove meat from their souffles or if they are premade. We were advised by our server that the souffle could be made without meat. And so she ordered a goat cheese souffle WITHOUT bacon. After a 25 minute wait, my wife was served her souffle...with bacon inside. Naturally we brought this to the servers attention who was very apologetic and advised us that the order (known as the ticket) was accurate but that the "kitchen" made an error. He advised us the dish would be comp'ed and brought her a glass of wine. This was fine and although and inconvenient as we ate our meals while my wife waited another 25 mins for a new meatless souffle to be made, we were willing to let this go. We simply requested to speak with the manager because we assumed he would want to apologize and we wanted to alert him to this operational error in his kitchen. My wife and I both work in health care where operational failures are usually not well tolerated and deserve a thorough analysis. Interestingly the manager (apparently the son of the owner) came to our table with the attitude and body language that our sever had resolved the problem and we were simply an annoyance to be dealt with, I guess he was too busy glad handing the VIPs. My wife expecting some semblance of remorse rather than a canned apology, pointed out to the manager the obvious, his kitchen had had an operational failure and perhaps he may wish to investigate. What came next was shocking to all at the table as he went on a tirade about how could we expect him to know what's going on in the kitchen, demanding us to tell him what we wanted (nothing actually other than an apology) and yelling: "you're in operations you tell me what I should do". Naturally this was very disappointing for a restaurant manager at a restaurant in Oakville that aspires to be one of the finer dining locations in the city to be so rude to a customer. It struck us that the restaurant management was more concerned about glad handing the other customers than providing appropriate customer service. When a restaurant is more concerned about catering to the few as opposed to delivering on its core functions (ie food fresh, don't feed meat to a vegetarian and don't include an allergen into an allergic persons food) then they have lost their integrity and focus and are not worth your money. We will not be returning.

The prix fixe is available as 2 course or 3 course, with a slightly lower cost for 3 course vegetarian. There is also a fairly extensive cocktail and wine menu. We went with 2, 2 course meals, sharing the appetizer and dessert. For the appetizer we had the "Feuilleté au Chèvre", a baked potato, leek and goats cheese pastry with a side garden salad. The salad was well dressed, with a great mustard based dressing. The tart was perfectly composed, great balance of pastry, vegetables and cheese. For the entrees, we had the "Magret de Canard" and "Coq au Vin". Both were excellent - perfectly cooked, and great accompaniments; but the red wine sauce with the chicken was the standout. For dessert we shared the "Clafoutis aux Poires", pears baked in thin layers of pastry with vanilla ice cream. It was freshly baked, and not too sweet - so a great end to the dinner. The overall service was great - well timed, not over bearing and friendly. This is a great place for the the special occasion or treat;

It is quite a small restaurant so I know they were absolutely doing the best they could. Cheers!
