    We love the room, and have been many times. However our latest visit was really lacking. Our mains took a long time to come, and when they did was cool to warm at best, definitely not hot. We did alert our waiter and the manager, and they offered to take a couple of dishes off of our bill or reheat our food - which seemed a strange option in the first place for a nice restaurant, to reheat. In the end we were late for the comedy show in the basement we had tickets for at 9:30, so we thanked them for removing the items, paid and left (hungryish). Probably won’t rush back anytime soon.

    Oval Room Brasserie – Fort Garry HotelResponded on April 28, 2023Hello, firstly let me say thank you for being a long time guest of the Oval Room and I do apologize that we missed the mark on your last visit. I have passed on your feedback to the restaurant manager, so they are aware of the mishap. It sounds like the manager on duty did try to resolve it by removing the items from your bill but I do understand that the experience might still have felt like a let down. I hope you give us another try in the near future! All the best.

    It’s only the age of the hotel and the ambience of the Oval Room you’re there for. The food is okay, nothing great. The service is mediocre. Wasn’t impressed to be honest. For that price level in such an opulent, historic hotel, the hospitality experience needs to significantly improve. It’s a convenient place to eat if you’re staying in the hotel.

    Oval Room Brasserie – Fort Garry HotelResponded on April 19, 2023Hello Aaron, thank you for your honest feedback. We always appreciate our guests taking the time to let us know about their experience with us. We're sorry to hear the service was mediocre as we strive to go above and beyond. We are always trying to improve and grow as a team, so your perspective is very helpful.

    Food was average. Service was slow to begin. Sat waiting for over 10 minutes just to have someone give me water and then walk away. No offer for a drink and then another 10 minutes before the server actually showed up to the table. Disappointing considering the usual standard of service there.

    Service was horrendous. Prices are ridiculous for a lounge. It was a special occasion and we thought it was an upscale place. Then the jeans and sweatpants crowd came in and if I wanted to see that I could have paid 1/3 and gone to Olive Garden.

    Oval Room Brasserie – Fort Garry HotelResponded on April 28, 2023Hello Marcie, I'm sorry to hear you didn't have good service while dining with us. If you'd like to share further details, please private message us and we can follow up with you directly. Since becoming Oval Room two years ago, we are no longer a lounge, but a restaurant. We do try and adhere to a dress code but that can be hard to do as we have a large variety of travelers and locals whom, at times, dress a bit more on the casual side. We look forward to speaking with you. Thank you.

    We joined friends for dinner in the Oval Room on a Sunday night. The atmosphere was subdued and elegant. The service was friendly and welcoming (Thank you Fran!) We did not feel rushed although we lingered over our meal for hours. The drinks were perfect and the food delicious. All of it was beautifully presented. My only quibble was that the serving sizes seemed a wee bit small for the price. On the other hand, this meant we could order dessert without overeating and the Salted Caramel cheesecake was definitely a great end to a wonderful meal!
