We had the most enjoyable time for lunch. It was our first time visiting El Spero. Our service and food was teriffic. Breakfast is served at any time of the day. The omelette was the best I've ever had and the my husband thought the homemade soup was great. The Chicken Caesar wrap is enough for two people to share(make sure your hungry). Great value for the $$ We will definitely be back and reccomend this great restaurant.
Used to have consistently good food but lately (last few months) the food is consistently bad. This is the only restaurant that does not seem capable of making poutine. The fries are rarely even cooked (even when specifically asked to be crispy). It barely resembles poutine. It is more like a bunch of fries with a touch of gravy and a very, very small sprinkle of cheese on top. Other dishes aren't much better. Either raw or burned, moldy tasting buns, etc... The soup is usually ok... I'm guessing that they only heat it up...
OVERPRICED FOR A MALL RESTAURANT
FRIES ARE FROZEN AND THE CHARGE 4.25 FOR A SIDE PLATE
BOOTHS ARE LUMPY AND TORN
HAD TO PAY AT COUNTER AND WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE
GOT THERE
We have lived in Oakville for the past 5 years, and was the first time dining at El Spero. The restaurant was recomended by friends who eat there regularly. The food and portions are simply amazing. We had found out after talking to one employee that El Spero is one of the longest running restaurants in the town of Oakville(35 years) Great Place!!!
Our family used to dine here fairly often. I don't know when this place got so bad.
My fettuccini alfredo tasted store-bought, it tasted like a can of alfredo sauce was dumped on it. My mother ordered hot chicken with gravy, mashed potato's and veggies. Well she is not one to ever not finish a meal, but this was absolutely awful. Powdered mashed potatoes, canned gravy, rotten, canned vegetables. I could have made this at home for $5.00 - but were charged $15.
The tuna sandwiches were okay, but not worth $8.95 each with no side dish!
The only thing edible was the breakfast - scrambled eggs and bacon. But I guess how can you mess that up?
It seems like this place is really cutting corners with the quality of their food. The bill came to $56.00 and it was mostly uneaten. The waitress didn't even bother to ask if the food was okay (that is, when she made an appearance). Also, she dumped my garlic bread on the table and then picked it up, with her hands and put it on the plate.
This place has severely deteriorated. I should have complained.
