Dar Nabati - Oakville

I was a bit skeptical of our trip to the Oakville area as to what quality of vegan cuisine we would be able to find. Luckily I have a special lady friend who is also pretty killer at finding decent locations to eat and she brought me here. This is a very cozy but elegant cafe style restaurant. Orders are placed at the counter and then brought to you. While small there is definitely attention to detail in the decor (I just love the table patterns). My recommendation is to scope out the menu before you go but in all honesty you likely can not go wrong with any of your orders. Plus the staff were super friendly and knowledgeable about the meals. With meals that leave you full and prices that won't break the bank if you happen to find yourself in Oakville (or live there) and want some great vegan dishes this is definitely a must visit.

The food here is excellent. It 's a small little shop with a homely feel and it feels like family is serving you. I 've had their classic breakfast and the shasuka (spelling is probably way off). The classic breakfast is the vegan take on eggs, bacon, toast and hash browns. The eggs were spot on and 85% tasted like eggs, 95% looked like it. The bacon was pretty good too. In terms of the shasuka, it 's basically beans in tomato sauce with vegan eggs. Very simple dish, but refreshing at the same time. While the place is slightly pricey, it is reasonable considering the amount of effort that is need to make the dishes. Been here twice now, will be back for a third time again.

This was my first visit to Dar Nabati. I really liked this restaurant. I came for the convenience, but was genuinely impressed by the food. The place was spotless, presented very well, and I found the staff to be very knowledgeable. It's hard to find specialty restaurants that can appeal to a larger audience, but I can say that I was impressed with the menu. The menu is vegan and offers a lot of gluten free options. I had the falafel balls with quinoa. The falafel was baked and was nice and light. It was served with a nice tahini sauce and was accompanied by a nice small salad. I found it quite filling and very pleasant. I was also able to pick up some gluten free donuts, brownies and s'more desserts for my wife and son. These were also surprisingly nice and very flavourful. This restaurant has strived to be a place for people who struggle with allergies and scents. They also carry specialty cleaning products and soaps that may be a good fit if you have severe allergies. I found this to be another great place for me to stop at while I am in Oakville. 5 stars.

The food was delicious! I had the soy shawarma on rice and lentils and it was easily one of the best vegan meals I've tasted in the area! I also had he cardamom chai latte and I normally don't drink lattes but it was delicious! The prices are good too so it's good value for what you get. It's a nice cafe vibe...my only issue is that it's the slowest service. For a cafe style where you order at the counter service should be quick but we waited almost 40 minutes for two items! Reducing two stars for the slow service but hopefully they can fix that kink because it is a new business so it will probably take time to become fast.

A simply unique place that you can enjoy even if you are not vegan. Everything taste really good, and the substitutes for meats are working really well with rice or other carbs they offer. The prices though are a bit too high for a cafe that doesn't offer table service. Two people eat for almost $50 including only two drinks.
