REVIEWS OF The Oxbow Natural Wine Bar & Restaurant IN Manitoba

Thamilarasu Subramaniam

I loved everything about this place. The staff were lovely, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere was both very cozy and very romantic. It is a bit pricier for the amount of food you're getting however, the food I found was definitely worth it. I highly recommend this place.

Grant Koropatnick

Just tried out their new patio and it was great. Delicious menu!

Ryan Mason

Some of the dishes were teetering on the edge of being over seasoned but everything was down right delicious and worth every penny. Will be back for sure!

Heidi Grieser

Figured we would try this place this evening as they have received some recent favorable reviews. The decor is pleasing, the ambience was nice, the chairs were very very uncomfortable. The server was very friendly, knowledgable, and prompt. They food was nothing special. We tried the croquettes, beet salad, spatzle, and schnitzel. The croquettes lacked any flavor and were just very bland. The salad was very simple and didn't seem well paired as far as flavor. The pork schnitzel was tasty and a very large portion. The spatzle was a concealed bowl of mush. We returned this back to the kitchen and sort of lost our appetite afterwards. The wine selection was good, and we had a nice bottle of organic red wine. All in all it has the makings of a nice place but the food was sub par and fell quite short of expectations. Probably won't go back to try any other dishes.

Chris

Lovely meal. Several well cooked dishes with beautiful flavour pairings, very attentive and personal service from Luke, and a fantastic bottle of wine. Excellent place for a special occasion meal. We'd gone when they first opened and were okay with our meal but not wowed, this experience blew that one out of the water. Exceptional evening.

An exceptional experience. Friendly, personable staff. We were seated quickly, and had a chance to check out the wide variety of drinks available. The menu itself is well priced, diverse, and utilizes locally sourced, organic ingredients. We especially loved the pork shoulder, and the Marquise St. Honore is a fantastic dessert. The atmosphere is also prime, beautifully refurbished, and great music. We plan to come again soon!

AMAZING food, wonderful ambience and friendly service... all the things needed for a great night out. I highly recommend Oxbow, servers are fantastic, know their stuff and make great recommendations. Most importantly great Wine, beer and cocktail selections ????

Les Klassen Hamm

The wine list and drink menu are well designed. We came on a very hot day and it was uncomfortably hot inside the restaurant. The food itself was good - but not stunning - anf it took forever to come out. Initially started with idea to order several courses, but after a while our entire party were ready to go someplace else.

Margaux Miller

Great atmosphere. Small yet varied, delicious menu. Server very knowledgeable about menu and dietary needs. As well as wine. Aside from our main server 2 other people interacted with our table, which to me means that staff in the restaurant are interested in the needs of the diners and are a team. Was a welcome experience as this was our first dinner out since October 2020!

Luke provided great service and was very attentive to our table. The food was amazing with such distinct and rich flavours! We will go back!

Tara

What a disappointment. Flavours were way off. Pork belly dish was way too salty. Beef tenderloin had jus that tasted burnt. Artic char escabeche was way too sour, I know what escabeche is, and that was not it. I can go on but won't. Servers were polite, as they should, and ambiance was ok.

Merom Toledano

It’s definitely a memorable experience combined with fine dining!

The food was ridiculously amazing, the triple cooked fries and pasta salad were our favourites, but that's hard to say as every dish we tried was fantastic! The service was really great as well, our server was so kind and patient with us as it was our first time here. Can't wait to visit again! Thanks for such a wonderful experience to the whole team, you all deserve the best!

We had an amazing dinner at Oxbow tonight. the tapas offerings were delicious....unique loved very bit of it. Service was attentive but not overly so. Environment is cozy yet cool. Each plate had its own distinct flavours and "umami" Wow...don't miss the pickerel and pumpkin dish it was absolutely amazing. We will come back again (and again). Thanks to the chef and the kitchen.

Chris

Wonderful establishment with elegant decor, classy atmosphere, fantastic food, and great service. Our family highly recommends The Oxbow for a formal dining experience, or casual bites and drinks. Very impressed with the ability to do both! Thank you for the good times. Cheers!

Such an amazing ambience and delicious food. Loved it! Still dreaming about the beef tartare!

paul dumont

Went there last night with a couple friends had an amazing experience staff was knowledgeable about the menu and wine pairings, without that pretentious vibe that you sometimes get from a restaurant of this quality. The shareables all had a distinct visual, olfactory, and gustatory feel. The environment is Pleasant modern and relaxing with lovely acoustics I felt like my conversations were not intruding upon my neighbors. I would greatly recommend the sourdough bread and cheese as well as the chicken drumettes and lamb belly dishes. I left full and that I received a great deal for what I paid. If you enjoy food in Winnipeg you should check out the Oxbow.

Jon Roffel

My wife and I tried The Oxbow out over the weekend and really quite enjoyed it. The restaurant picks up on the trend of small sharing plates. There are currently 14 dishes on the menu of which 7 are vegetarian. The Oxbow owners have a joint relationship with Bergmann Farms who directly supply this farm to table initiative. As such, the menu is seasonal and subject to change with what's available and fresh - always a good thing! There's a select list of craft type classic cocktails, each with a house twist as well as beer offerings, ciders and a very extensive wine list. The wines are especially interesting as they feature only wines which have been minimally processed or altered - so no filtering and minimal or no use of sulphites - generally no monkeying around! We started with the pickeral croquettes with smoked fennel aioli. The two pieces sitting on top of a schmear of aioli were delicious with a light airy filling of potato and pickerel and a subtle liquorice smokiness from the fennel. A good start! Next was the beef tartare with mushroom finished with some grated smoked egg yolk. The tartare was placed on top of a house made slice of grilled bread. We both agreed this was tasty but this is a rich dish and I got that sense after 3 bites. I felt it was a touch heavy handed being presented on the bread and perhaps would have benefited from a lighter overall carrier. Next up the barley risotto. The first bite caught us by surprise. Lovely, slightly chewy texture with pieces of delicate oyster mushrooms torn in. The surprise came in the creamy carrot broth used to prepare the dish. It had an intense, salty rich hit which had at first association reminded us of a Knorr type of flavour - so wasn't sure about this. However, on subsequent mouthfuls the complexity of the carrots came through and we quite enjoyed it. At this point we decided to order a bottle of wine. Not knowing any of the wines our server sent over (I'm guessing) one of the owners who recommended what turned out to be a really fun and different 14.5% Spanish red. It complemented our meal extremely well - so definitely seek out the expertise. I would also mention that our dishes were sometimes brought out by different servers as they were ready and each one of them carefully and expertly explained what they were putting down in front of us. The staff here are trained and it's clear. Sidebar done - we received some pork belly, panisse (similar to polenta but made of chickpea flour) and celery root dice. The panisse was quite good and the celery root in a black garlic vinaigrette cut the richness well. The pork belly itself was a bit of a disappointment. Pork belly preparations should typically melt in your mouth. The meat layer of the belly was tough and surprisingly hard to cut with our knives. It was lightly seasoned with salt but was on the bland side overall. Our final dish was a large share made up of a lightly breaded pickerel fillet sitting on top of a celery root dice with potato, bacon, kale and drizzled chili oil. The combination of celery root, potato, bacon and kale was a knock out and paired nicely with the fish. They don't serve espresso. They should. They have two desserts available - a chocolate terrine and beignets. They also have two options for cheese plate selections. We opted for the chocolate terrine as it presented an interesting mix of flavors including pistachio, rosewater and halvah. Don't know specifically what it was but it was underwhelming. Will try the cheese offerings next time. There are a lot of options available in the share plate restaurant niche (and one still excels). The Oxbow restaurant presents itself as an honest place with no pretenses and a simple approach to its menus. This is the best way. Ingredients (and wines) stripped to their basics and prepared to highlight their essence. Oxbow clearly lives up to this ethos with its passion very evident. We look forward to returning often. Well done. Reservations are via email. PS Many thanks to Meaghan, our server!

Daniel Struthers

Interesting menu and good food enjoyed by all at our table.

Vanessa Stachiw

Food was delicious, as was the wine and cocktails. As of 28Aug2021 the establishment is taking extra precautions for Covid. Increased spacing between tables, masks are required whenever not seated at your table, and you must have your Vax passport scanned to be able to dine inside.

Trevor Barratt

The food is absolutely amazing, but the waiter recommended that we order 10-15 dishes. TEN TO FIFTEEN dishes for FIVE people. We ended up ordering just 5, and that was plenty enough to share.

Daniel Papetti

Jamie Gallagher

All thumbs up - all the way!!! Servers and food uniquely modern meets local artisanal. Must do this summer

Dan Mayall

I've yet to give this place a thorough review. Definitely one of the best dining experiences I've had in a while. Great atmosphere, good food. Somewhere you go if you're not watching your wallet or credit card balance! The servers were very attentive and I loved the wine and virgin Five Spice Cocktail they offered. I'll visit again someday with more friends. Shame I didn't take photos!

Reid

Luke and Vero we're outstanding with their kind service and knowledge of the menu. So friendly! Food was also beautiful and made for a delightful evening on their spacious cozy and quiet patio. Loved every minute of it.

For anyone in the Lord Robert's area, great place to go for a date night. With their new patio setup, amazing spot for a great food, company and nature. We got entertained with squirrels running around close to two big trees... no, they don't charge extra for the entertained. Lol. Amazing food, super friendly staff... all you can ask for a wonderful date night.

Hertz Vaughan

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Food is superb and tastes fantastic. Tons of attention to detail in plating. Cannot beat the price for prix fixe menu.

Had a great time with friends ..service was terrible would have drank more. Having to go around the building to go to the bathroom..not cool. One of of our friends thought the waitress was pregnant... which is not a body shame. We tipped well but were acosted on the way out for body shaming. Will never go back. Horrible service!

Chris Culleton-Koebel

Very good wine list and tapas

Jason Skinner

Disappointed they didn't have the tasting menu. Food was just ok and a little underseasoned. Was expe ting more based on reviews.

Victoria Weir

My wife and I made our first visit to Oxbo, with her sister and brother-in-law, who had already tasted the wonderful food there several times. They even knew the server from previous visits. We ordered eight or nine dishes, including the gigantic, shareable shnitzle, which was scrumptious, as well as the ravioli and the gnochii, which I sampled sparingly due to their dairy content. They were also excellent. I can't even remember the other dishes, but they were all wonderful. We split two pieces of the chocolate dessert, and it was rich, and sweet and wonderful. We can't wait to go back for round 2, soon!

Olga Kort

Warm atmosphere, welcoming staff and interesting menu items made for a great evening at this south Osborne restaurant. We didn’t have reservations as it was a last minute decision to go out to dinner but they sat us at the bar. The tables were completely occupied. The staff people were all so genuine and helpful. Kudos to them! Our main server was Lucien and he was excellent but I believe each and every staff member either checked in on us or helped serve. We started with the smoked beet and yogurt dish that was so good. Loved the smokey flavour of the puréed beets.

Kent McNeill

Currently my fav new-ish place in the city. Cocktails are fantastic, food is delectable, ambiance is perfect. :)

From the 3xtime french fries to the rest of the stuff we sampled was a very good diner. Please to see they have reopened during covid. A bit pricey however looking forward to going back

Mr Strength

It was fine. Nothing exceptional nothing terrible about it. Our server knew very little about the details of the menu and for the prices they charge I think you would get better food at places like Segovia.

There isn't one bad thing I could say about this place. The waiter was helpful and explained things well. They told us they would pick a menu for our table of eight and everything they picked was so good!!! We got to try a bunch of different things. It was such a fun time I can't wait to go back and bring another group of friends! I would recommend having a larger group and sharing a few things. Better price and fun to try more dishes!

Dani L

Very enjoyable place. We've been a few times since they first opened, and I've found the meals have been better and more complex as time goes by. Our last visit was our favorite. I've appreciated the switch away from set menus to regular menu and plates. Often like popping in there at the end of the night for a cocktail too.

Great food and great atmosphere. A wonderful place to meet and socialize over a series of unique and creative dishes.

Ron Sheen

The food is tasty but it is a little expensive for the portion size. The dishes are tapas that are meant to be shared amougst people.

April Derksen

Dropped in to taste a couple unique wines and enjoy the bespoke cheese plate with crusty local bread. Beautiful ambiance, warm and open. Great place for quiet evening with a couple good friends or even a date night.

Stephen Farr

I have no idea why anyone would leave a bad review. The menu is so creative yet approachable. The portion size is perfect to try multiple dishes. The price is reasonable for the ingredients and care that their team put in to curate a menu like that. I would definately come back in a heart beat with friends and family. Their beef tartare was perfection. So salty, so flavourful I loved every bite. Also their vegetarian options were just as phenomenal as their meat centered dishes. Not to mention Pete, our server. What a gem and a sweet person. Such kind and geniune staff that obviously loves food as much as their customers. Absolutely loved every minute of it. Thanks Oxbow team!

Richard Jorundson

Best wine list in Winnipeg. Wonderful service, beautiful room, and great food!

I could not have been more delighted with my experience at The Oxbow. The atmosphere is wonderful; I love the exposed brick and cozy ambience. Our server was excellent - helpful, courteous, and friendly. And the food... Every plate was a marvel. I don't like beets. I... LOVED... the smoked beet, and that sourdough flatbread? Please. Can't wait to go again!

Justin Bernard

My hubby and I are still talking about how much we loved this place a day after going. One of the best dining experiences I've had. Food was fantastic with unique presentation + great cocktails + amazing staff. If you are looking to impress a special someone this is the place to go. And try the Boom-Boom Goodbye!

Daniel Lamb

Service was superb, so were the oysters and the wine but sitting in plastic chairs and tables seemed a bit like a cafeteria. Also having no rear entrance was a bit of an inconvenience when having to use the restroom or even arriving. You have to use the front door and walk around the building.

Rebecca Akong

Delicious food in a modern but welcoming space. Three primary set menus available focused on meat, fish or vegetarian with some additional side dishes available. Every element of the set menu was delicious but portions were on the small side. The wine pairings were well chosen, but for the price the volume served was less than expected (only 3-4oz).

I had the pleasure of dining in this new restaurant shortly after it opened. Great menu with lots of unique options. The atmosphere is warm, comfortable and modern. There's a sommelier on staff, and their servers were polite and helpful. The show-stopper for me was the bread pudding at the end of the meal—hands down the best I've ever tasted. Just wonderful. They've really breathed new life into this sleepy neighborhood!

We enjoyed a group dining experience (for 8) last Saturday night. Chef Andrew selected everything and Sommelier Luke paired the wines for each course. The oysters, salads, appetizers and mains (vegan dishes, plus fish and beef) were superb. The natural wines were excellent - you've got to try them. Way to go Oxbow! A truly fine dining and wine experience. We'll be back soon.

The food here is exceptional! We tried the risotto, beet salad, fondue & croquettes - all were “Wow! That is SO good”. The first bite of the risotto & the fondue left me having to ask my dinner partner to repeat themselves because I was so distracted from our conversation by the insanely delicious flavours. Absolute must try. The ambience is warm & inviting, classy but comfortable & approachable. The staff were all very friendly and our server picked out a killer glass of red wine for me. Cannot wait to go back for more!

Will be recommending to friends/family and can’t wait to visit again next time I’m in town!

kishwar mirza

The food was top notch, the service was great, wine was good. The meal itself was 5 stars. My only downside about this place is the seating. The bench is made for tall people I felt like a child sitting on it, and the chairs are cute but it would be very uncomfortable if you were a larger person sitting down for this meal from either side.

Mark Witiuk

Ashley Arsenault

Went during the soft opening. A selection of local ingredients made each dish absolutely delicious, even if you don't really count prairie food as haute cuisine. I had rabbit fettucine for my main, for example, and it was delicious as hell. The decor's really nice and the cocktails/beer/wine selection is fantastic.

Mike Phillips

I wouldn't go back to the Oxbow, the experience was unpleasant and it was almost entirely down to how long everything took. I went there on a random weekend evening when it wasn't busy, but first it took forever to get a table, and then the food took forever to arrive. And then when it did it wasn't even that great. The portions were small and the whole thing was overpriced. Aside from not respecting my time nothing was explicitly bad, but there are far too many restaurants in the city to ever go back to this one. If you do decide to go, avoid window seats. They're leaky, and the last thing you need is to be cold and hungry and paying for it.

Went for a friend's going away dinner. Service was very good. Food was even better (no shade to the server). Drinks were good. Ambience was nice, dim lighting and a woman's and gender neutral washroom. Lots of wine to choose from, but also other cocktails. Bills were accurate but as all these places, you get what you pay for. The gnocchi was unbelievably good ($24). Beets amazing. There were zero complaints on the food. Server was very friendly and accurate. Would definitely return. What would give it 5 stars? A slight more attention and a little faster food service, but again, not saying it was bad at all. We were very convinced to hang out and take our time. Went for a friend's going away dinner. Service was very good. Food was even better (no shade to the server). Drinks were good.

Awesome service and vibes. If you're looking at the menu online, the idea is you get 4-5 plates for sharing! Food is incredible, special shout out to the schitnzel and the cold dumpling. Very cool focus on the natural wine concept. You can tell the staff believe in it.

Emily Chandler

Wonderful place with great atmosphere. They were able to slot us in on short notice without a reservation, and they notified us we would maybe need to give up our table. We only had to give it up for dessert, in which they accommodated us at the bar. All in all a lovely, delicious evening.

Really enjoyed the food here. I am still dreaming about the arctic char. A bit expensive but as a little treat for yourself it is great.

One of the best food experiences I’ve ever had. Luke is your boy for wine recommendations!

Our table of six ordered a range of dishes - some winners, but also several disappointments and a miss as to execution. Dishes were generally light, which was appreciated due to the four courses. The overly heavy date cake dessert was burnt, almost inedible. Deer + Almond or Chew would be better options. Space is loud, be prepared to lean in to hear each other. Service seemed overwhelmed, requests for drinks had to be repeated.

Absolutely nailed every dish! Great cocktails and wine recommendation. We will go back for sure!

Amazing food. Every dish was spectacular. The server was very knowledgeable on the wine and plates.

Overpriced and food menu selection limited and in my opinion not really good. The wine selection is really good. Ambiente ist okay, staff friendly. Wouldn't go there a second time.

Food was good but portions were pretty small, and price was high.

A nice little restaurant in south Osborne. The dishes are small but are really good. Four to five dishes between two people was very filling. Worth trying again.

This restaurant has potential... our food was inconsistent, some (the houlumi sp?) was delicious, the vegan dessert was awful (tasted like it was artificially flavoured) The pasta had good flavour but horrible presentation. We drank a bottle of french chardonnay that tasted alright, however later we had terrible headaches. The atmosphere is very nice and the staff were pleasant.
