Not bad for a hotel restaurant, Oak + Violet has a nice outdoor patio and they also had live music on a weekday evening. Some dishes were better than others, overall the service was not bad but our dinner took quite a while.

Cute boutique restaurant in the Park James hotel. We were setup in the bar in the back and selected apps. French onion soup did not have much gruyere but the flavor was otherwise on point. Service made up for the food options which themselves were tasty but did not meet the expectation set by the price points. I did not find a signature dish that would make the foodie in me want to come back for more. Good service and atmosphere are what make this place shine.

Really enjoyed date night with my partner. We ordered all the vegetarian options on the menu. Great food. Great Ambience. Staff was really friendly and courteous.

Perhaps I’m being a bit harsh but there really isn’t anything special about Oak+Violet. The food is okay at best. Nothing screams freshness or character. They’re all down the middle, and it is passable food. But then one wonders about the mid-high price point and whether it is worth it.

Amazing atmosphere very open and bright with fresh air for outside seating. This restaurant bar is in a upscale hotel and all the drinks were balanced and tasty.

Yes!! This place is spendy, but that’s not a surprise given the location. Great outdoor patio. Delish good and top notch, professional service. Great cocktails. We had a salad, sea bass and charcuterie board, with paper plane cocktail and Aperol spritz. Lovely dinner.

Delicious food and drink options. Outdoor dining is beautiful for both hanging out and dinner. A bit expensive depending on your budget but the food is quite well done. Gets busy sometimes especially on the weekends so you might want to book in advance. Great service too.

Love this place – one of the best in town. Vegetables are amazing; chicken is the wonderful; steak is good; fish is so so.

The outdoor setting is very nice, we sat by the fire pit, which had a nice atmosphere to it. There was a live band playing (were told it plays always on Wednesday and few more days a week). Staff was very nice and attending, above and beyond. Food was reasonably priced for the location. Food was creatively prepared and nicely presented, a bit too complex taste combination for me though, but thats my personal taste.
