Highly recommend La Bartola! Delicious vegan Mexican tasting menu. The food is unforgettable. Amazing flavours and combinations. The La Chalupa mocktail was so delicious that I had two - it is not too sweet, just right. The dessert portion of the tasting menu was also delicious. The ambiance of the back patio is gorgeous and the service is top tier.

This restaurant is perfect for a fine dining date night offering authentic flavours from the heart of Mexico and if you're familiar with Oaxacan food, you'll love it. If you aren't, Chef @veganartisan menu will definitely make you fall in love. @labartola.ca also offers a closed patio seating, perfect for the warm summer evenings, has a vibrant ambiance and presentation of dishes and cocktails is *Chef's Kiss* We tried : 🍸La Calenda 🍹La Carabina 🍲Black Aguachile 🫓Memelas Oaxaquenas 🌮Tacos 🍛White Mole 🫔Pineapple Tamal One of the best vegan fine dining restaurant we have been to!

We had a beyond expectations celebratory dinner. The staff is attentive, thoughtfully explained every dish on the tasting menu. The food is delicious and we left very full. Great cocktails and really nice vibe inside. Highly recommend.

We had a lovely table sitting at the patio, our server Jennifer is amazingly knowledgeable about the food they have. Very attentive and friendly. Cocktails are very lovely and delicious as well. However, the food was a big disappointment. We went with the tasting menu, only liked the corn appetizer and mushroom main. Cantaloupe salad was very hard to chew, the dessert crust has a weird texture very difficult to cut open with a spoon. It’s a $75 set menu plus 20% mandatory tip. But the portion was small. Might still come back for a drink. But not for the food anymore.

I will start my review by saying that I was recommended this restaurant by friends who are vegetarian but I am not. My wife and I came here for date night. We arrived on time and the service was fantastic. We actually had a spot at the bar booked but they placed us at a table as one was available. The vibe was great and the servers were very helpful. However the food itself I struggled with. We had the tasting menu at $75/ person; my wife had the wine pairing which was a good add as it was well thought through. However, Aside from the lions mane steak and the Mexican corn I fount the food really lacking. The desserts were not good at all and the vegetables/ salad were not enjoyable. The cocktails however were amazing. The cost as well was very high, we had 1 drink to start then I had one cocktail and my wife had the wine pairing and it was over $300 with the tip. Overall I would say worth trying but not somewhere we would come back to again.

It’s all about their delicately designed menu, presentation and priceless taste , flavours and texture. The unique menu leaves you flabbergasted, wondering if these delectable dishes can be so immaculately curated created to bring out the right flavour. They are all vegan and gluten-free to escalate your experience. Their guacamole and chocolate cake are once in a lifetime experience, and I highly recommend it if you are one for a scrumptiously tasting, not too decadently sweet chocolate cake. It’s worth a try, absolutely!!! A place to go to for a special occasion and to celebrate something special. It’s terrific:) leaves you craving for more and longing to visit again soon.
