    Vela has been on the list of places to visit for some time. Since Marvin left 7Enoteca in Oakville and took the helm at Vela, we have wanted to get round to check it out. Fortunately today we were able to dine at Vela and it did not disappoint! (Other than Marvin not being in for todays service). The environment is stunning. The food is amazing. The service was attentive. (Many thanks Sandy, not only on the food advice, but the wine advice as well!) We thoroughly enjoyed the evening and look forward to returning to try the tasting menu at the counter. That type of experience is right up our alley!

    This was our first visit and we opted for the bar space. You have the option of a la carte or a five course menu. We totally recommend the five courses option. We started with a cocktail where I had the Daisy and my spouse chose an old fashioned with a twist that had Armagnac. Both were amazing and carefully crafted. The food is beautifully presented and the flavour profiles have been meticulously procured. The service is extremely professional and each course was provided with a proper description of what we would be dining on flavour wise. Absolutely would return without hesitation. Thank you so much to all the staff for the lovely evening.
