    They used to have a good menu but the latest menu changes suck. They got rid of the questo fundido and flatbreads, and replaced with a shrimp tempura dish that is severely lacking. The wings are also now smaller and overcooked. On the plus side, the staff and servers are top end.

    The new menu at OJs is great — and to whom it matters, the coleslaw is great now! Some menu items before the change could have been improved, and they’re much better now.Anyway, I’ve pretty much had everything on the menu by now, and have not been disappointed. Ever. My favourites are definitely the Kona Burger and Beef Dip, and there is something on the menu for everyone.Between cheap house beers, ample TVs, great bartenders and incredible waiting staff. Go here. Now!

    This is another great casual place for comfort food. I’ve tried both the Original Burger and Veggie Burger many times, and for some reason I like the Veggie burger a little bit more than the Original.

    Service was great. Drinks were delicous. Food is pretty basic. I enjoy Oj’s for having 2 side options with a meal. Their menu is always changing which is great too. Great patio in the summer which gets lots of sun! Sunday $5 ceasars and $4 pints!!

  • Gnocchi

    As a typical pub food, here is pretty good and reasonable. Modern and clean ambience to be in, awsome patio with sunshine, lovely and kind service.

    Anytime we come to this location it’s the absolute worst! Horrible slow service and the servers are to interested chatting it up at the bar instead of making sure patrons are okay. Also they are always out of items on the food/drink menu……

    Appetizers were the worst.Came here on a Wednesday and was looking forward to taking advantage of the 1/2 prize bottles of wine. We came here about 7 pm and were seated immediately though the place was packed. The bf and I ordered a bottle of red to start and it was really good. $30 down to $15. Great deal.We started to get a bit hungry about 3/4 of the way through the bottle so we ordered the naan and hummus. The menu described this appy as a traditional hummus drizzled with a balsamic glaze. It was more like DROWNING in a balsamic soup. The naan was pretty good, though, it was more of a flat bread. We were hungry and starting to feel the wine, so though we continued to complain to each other about how insane the amount of balsamic the hummus was swimming in, we didn’t complain to the waitress because we were actually pretty amused. For me the taste of the balsamic was not too strong so I didn’t mind just let the balsamic drip off my hummus as it scooped it out of the bowl, but my dining companion found it nearly inedible and had to struggle to find a bit of hummus that wasn’t mostly balsamic infused at this point. Strike one.On to the second bottle of wine. $48 down to $24. With the second bottle we got a second appy. The chili lime chicken. Well, this appy was even worse. Like, AWFUL. I’ve attached two pictures to show you what our dish looked like. The first photo actually shows some pieces of chicken in it. The second photo shows what the dish looked like once we ate the chicken out of and it looks practically identical. For $12.50, this dish is absurd. It is 5% chicken 20% dry crunchy noodles, 20% cucumber, and 55% sauce. Just gross. The texture is disgusting, the chicken was a weird flavour, and the sauce was that typical bottled super sweet sticky sauce with red chili flakes in it that restaurants buy in 4l jugs. Where the lime was I have no idea. The dish was garnished with a lime wedge so maybe that was it?We paid our bill, and considering the cheap wine the tab was not too bad. But we will never ever ever order either of these dishes again. This is such a shame. These two dishes were either terribly prepared or they need to be revamped. I really feel like we ate two dishes of just sauce with our wine. I’m nauseous just thinking about it.
