Tapas on Oak

Loved our dinner at Tapas on Oak. Everything we ate tasted great, service was quick and the atmosphere was pleasant! Thank you very much.

My girlfriend and I were in on Friday night after wondering around Oak Bay.

Tapas on Oak is a super intimate setting, and a great overall vibe for a fancier night out.

We shared the olives (a hefty, tasty amount although a little heavy on the Chili Flakes), dumplings (fantastic), creme brule, and their sundae along side a glass of port.

The Owner and the server were both extremely attentive and friendly.

I'd highly recommend this to friends if the budget permits (it is on the pricier side!).

I would have loved to take photos of the food, however didn't want to disturb other patrons.

We stopped by on a whim. The food was fabulous! We enjoyed the bison, prawns and baked brie - to start! The wine recommendation paired very well. Our server Trinity was such fun! Dan, the owner sat with us at the end of the night. Such a fun evening! We will be back! Highly recommend Tapas on Oak!

I have been to Tapas on Oak a couple of times and highly recommend it. Great food, good wine selection, and awesome service! Will definitely be going back.

This place was amazing! Such a variety of dishes and such a delicious and fun dining experience. I would especially recommend the tenderloin, risotto, and chicken. Would absolutely recommend!

We went to check out Tapas on Oak last week and had a fantastic night. The food offered a wide variety of tastes from around the world - from the Hong Kong dumplings to West Coast crab cakes, amongst other gems like the Karaage Chicken. All delicious. Great hospitality by the owner and excellent service by a fun staff. Nice selection of wines too, with a price point for all. Will definitely plan a return visit!

Staff was incredibly helpful with ordering wine. Had a couple of tapas items that matched up with our drinks, and they where excellent. Get to steak!

Beautiful little gem, hidden from view by its outdoor patio and traffic, but easy to find for pedestrians with a nose for excellent cuisine. My Spaniard friend decided to come in and we were delightfully surprised, albeit we wished to have been able to use the outside patio, had the weather allowed.

$18 for 4 tiny dumplings? Compare that to the 5 dumplings you can get for $8 from Dumpling Drop and the math just doesn't add up. You've got to be blowing minds with those dumplings if that's what you're going to charge and unfortunately they missed the mark.

Have been looking forward to trying this place for awhile and was disappointed. Large, heavy portions and price tags really took away from an authentic “tapas” experience. Food was meh. Good deal on wine by the glass for happy hour, but most on the list are from USA - only one option from Spain, few from other countries in Europe. Service was good and it wasn’t busy when we were there.

We just returned from a wonderful dinner at Tapas on Oak. It is such a pleasure to have a new restaurant with such a varied and interesting menu of small plates. The tuna tataki was delicious - as was the creme brûlée. Our server, Julia, was charming and attentive. We could not have asked for a more pleasant experience - and we wish Tapas on Oak many years of success!

Saw this place while waking by and the food was excellent very friendly staff and owner and good service

My girlfriend and I just had a nice evening of dining at this quite nice bistro. The food is excellent and lots of good choices. The service is friendly and efficient. The atmosphere inside is quite enjoyable. The wine is delicious especially when you have Dan checking out the merlot outside. We saw you Dan. We will be back. Free dessert of crème brûlée for now. ️

Excellent food and excellent service. Recommend the tuna tataki. Look forward to returning soon!

Lovely restaurant with amazing food and wine! Lots of gluten free options and vegetarian meals. The szechuan style greens are an absolute must! Amazing service and very friendly staff!
