Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Oakville

This was our second time eating at Buca and it did not disappoint! My fiancé ordered the pasta special and I ordered off of the menu. The calamari appetizer and our mains were cooked to perfection. The cannolis were simple and delicious. A little loud inside due to a boisterous group; however, the noise level decreased upon their departure. We will definitely be back. It's nice to see a restaurant that's doing it right.

We had booked a Valentine dinner for 2. I didn’t expect much, but the welcoming ambiance and pleasant, accommodating host and sommelier were a great experience to set us on the wonderful evening with a pink rose wrapped in a bouquet style. We started with 2 glasses of Prosecco, then with an incredible lobster bisque served like a French union soup style but instead with a puff pastry on top covering the soup bowl. The lobster bisque was so much flavour from the fresh lobster and little chunks of lobster meat. My wife was amazed at how good it was better than many of our Michelin-starred restaurants that we have been to. The next course was the 2 large ravioli filled with braised short ribs, which was tender and had great texture and juicy flavours made along with the wrapped sheets of pasta. I would say it’s even comparable and even better than Famiglia Baldassarre in Toronto. The next course was the New York steak and fresh lobster cooked perfectly, a tempting and tender treat. We have had lobster at high-end steak houses and it’s often overcooked to hard and from frozen lobster. This was fresh, and you could tell the sweet and tender lobster meat. We ended with a large pink macaroon, soft and with great texture. Truly a memorable experience, I recommend doing special menus like this more often.

Cucci offered a fantastic dining experience. The staff were very attentive and friendly. The food was absolutely on point, and the ambiance was just what one would expect from a great restaurant. It was our first time there, however it will not be our last. Well done Cucci!

Food was excellent, although the risotto was a little heavy on the mushrooms. Regina pizza was perfect, and the calamari was a surprisingly filling for an appetizer. Portions are great. Server was a little busy and seemed overwhelmed but overall she made sure we were taken care of.

A great neighbourhood meeting place . Staff are always friendly !
