Best Nightlife in Oshawa

"While not associated with the Toronto-born rapper of the same name, the Drake Hotel’s nightlife offerings are no less hip or happening. This boutique hotel is a hub for local events including concerts, DJs and multimedia art. The Drake’s basement venue, the Underground, hosts a rotating roster of dance parties, touring acts and cultural happenings like slam poetry nights."

"This next spot is definitely one of the most aesthetically pleasing patios on the list. From their exposed brick walls to their bright and airy feel, the spot is super Insta-worthy. Oh, and the food is pretty good too."

"Enjoy the most perfect aesthetic and dreamiest vibes on this rooftop patio at The Drake Hotel. This spot is the best places for after work drinks and snacks, plus there’s always amazing music, too!"

"With a rooftop patio equipped with three pools and luxurious cabanas, Lavelle perfectly embodies the modish King West neighbourhood it inhabits. From day to night, the impressive restaurant offers an upscale menu that is sure to meet all your brunch, lunch, dinner or snack needs. The meticulous design isn’t even the bar’s best feature: Lavelle is perfectly posed against expansive views of the Toronto skyline."

"Lavelle is for suited and booted EDM lovers|Courtesy of Lavelle. Summer in Toronto is fleeting, so residents make the most of the weather by spending every possible second outdoors. Swanky Lavelle is at the top of the rooftop pecking order."

"Miku pioneered aburi-style sushi in Canada — which, for the uninitiated, translates to 'flame-seared'. In practice, this means the fish is cooked over fire to create new textures and enhance flavour, searing it over binchotan (Japanese bamboo charcoal). The restaurant also has a signature secret sauce, known only by a handful of its chefs."

"Miku’s Mother’s Day feature for two includes a pan-seared Roast Beef, as well as its signature Aburi Sushi. And for dessert a delicous Matcha Yuzu Eclair. It is now available for pre-order for pick-up May 7 to 9."

"If you wish to have a taste of a cross between Asian cuisine and modern takes in Toronto, DaiLo, a French-inspired Chinese snack-bar, one of the best South Asian restaurant in Toronto, and dim sum counter can be your perfect place. Its coupe-style seating and cushioned seats with delightful and casual Asian ambiance can be your ideal meal destination. Big Mac Bao, Hakka Brown Wontons, Grilled Korean Ribs, all you can have accompanied with wine or beer of your choice."

"Not because it’s bad, but because it’s a gimmick and you know how it’s going to taste. Save your appetite for the menu’s wealth of creative and intricate flavor combinations — like chunks of watermelon fried in a wafer-thin batter and topped with pork floss, or Hakka wontons in brown butter. If dining in a group, absolutely save room for a whole trout that’s been filleted, fried, and reassembled on a platter with sweet, salty, and spicy dipping sauces."

"Highly celebrated for its imaginative cuisine, DaiLo is a bit more upbeat than the other restaurants on this list. In a dimly lit, teal and gold setting, flavourful plates pack a punch by blending traditional Asian dishes and ingredients with French techniques. Let the chef pick your meal if you want to go all out, but a flexible menu means you can eat as much or as little as you want."

"Located inside the always scenic Distillery Distinct, El Catrin’s large patio always feels like its hosting a party, though one that’s completely family friendly. The menu consists of both traditional and modern Mexican food, with the tacos having won a few awards. In addition to high chairs, El Catrin also offers a special menu for “little amigos."

"With a 5,000-square-foot patio and stunning and vibrant floor-to-ceiling murals by artist Oscar Flores, El Catrin is the hottest place to be...Read More"

"Just steps from Main Street subway station is this new bistro specializing in local and sustainable eats. Their menu includes charcuterie boards, oysters, and shrimp ceviche."

"For those who didn't excel in high school French, Le Petit Dejeuner means, quite simply, breakfast. This Belgian-Canadian style eatery has been busy cracking eggs since 2003 with hefty portions of everything that you are craving or ever will crave. The Hungry Gal has two eggs, toast, potato rosti, apple coleslaw and bacon."

"Whether you prefer fruit or vegetables, there are lots of places to grab a freshly made smoothie in Toronto. Establishments across the city are making delicious blends with unique and tasty flavour combinations and energizing proteins. Here are the best smoothies in Toronto."

"There are a few things you might do to appear cooler - like (poorly) fake an accent or tell strangers about your pet hedgehog, Carl. But when you’re in Toronto, all you have to do is head to Mother Tongue in the back of The Templar Hotel. This place feels like somewhere cooler-you discovered, despite being in one of Toronto’s busiest neighbourhoods."

"Mother Tongue, spread over two stories at the back of the Templar Hotel, is an unexpected find. Upstairs, the vibe is straight-up restaurant with a menu focused on full meals; downstairs, the vibe's more cocktail lounge with lights turned low and..."

"One of the favorites amongst locals in Toronto, Buddha’s Vegetarian Foods is one of the best Chinese vegetarian restaurants in Toronto. Serving some of the amazing mock meats, this jewel of a restaurant is a crowd-pleaser in every sense possible. Sitting in the Kensington Market, this restaurant never fails to impress even the meat lovers with their crispy ginger veggie beef, veggies on crispy noodles, mock duck, soya steak, and more."

"Come down to Buddha’s Vegetarian Restaurant to savour some Hong Kong style vegan and vegetarian food. This place has been serving up regional specialities like imitation duck since 1991, and they’re every bit as satisfying and delicious as the meat-filled counterparts. 666 Dundas St W | website"

"Buddha’s Vegan Restaurant has been around forever – since 1991!. They used to be Buddha’s Vegetarian, but they’ve always been a predominantly vegan establishment, so the name change reflects this better. It’s one of Toronto’s oldest vegan Asian restaurants and it’s beloved by many."

"Grapefruit Moon is certainly a prime University of Toronto spot, which means that the tables get as cluttered by textbooks as they do by food. This restaurant supplies its customers with ample laid-back comfort food. Their all-day breakfast that will have carnivores and vegans alike coming back for more."

"The Grapefruit Moon’s fun and unique brunch menu rewards the adventurous. Try the Bike Rider’s Special, Big Bang Breakfast, or a Morning Glory breakfast burger. The morning poutine with cheese, caramelized onions, breakfast gravy, and a fried egg is inviting."

"If you are looking for fast food that is made of ingredients that you can pronounce, in general, you are out of luck. However, chef Stephen Gardner foresaw a need and in 2005 opened up Urban Herbivore in a small restaurant in Kensington. They now have two popular restaurants, including in the Eaton Centre."

"Urban Herbivore is a long time healthy vegan fast food spot in Kensington Market. A lot of their menu is gluten-free, and they also try their best to offer local and organic ingredients. They also try to use less waste and have initiatives to help the environment."

"Healthy deli-style salads and bowls, smoothies, sandwiches and desserts. Urban Herbivore is perfect for a healthy lunch or dinner. They have two locations, one in Kensington Market and one in Eaton Centre."

"13 The Liège-style Belgian sugar waffles from this market stand are addictive enough to eat on their own. Hot and fresh from the griddle press, the puffy squares are tender on the outside and irresistibly chewy on the inside. But you’d be a fool not to gild this lily with market-fresh fruit, whipped cream and a glug of Ontario maple syrup."

"French onion soup on this warm heated patio in Leslieville is a surefire way to ward off that chill that's starting to set into your bones as the leaves fall off the trees. Also, there's always French wine if you're still feeling cold."

"A post shared by you look lost follow me😏 (@tarochipz) on Feb 1, 2017 at 5:49pm PST. This relaxed French bistro on Queen Street is unassuming on the outside and on the inside, the kind of place that could easily be mistaken for any other bar. That would be a mistake because it’s a high-quality restaurant with an open kitchen with excellent beer and wine lists."

"Everyone, and everything looks better in candlelight and La Palette is well aware of this. Not that they are trying to hide anything. The food is high end French without any pretension."

"Toronto's foodies clamber over each other for a reservation at Dreyfus, which is nestled into a Victorian townhouse on Harbord Street. The 30-seat restaurant provides a transportive experience that feels part French bistro and part Montreal house party. The vibe is right, the crowd is cool, the food is French without the fuss, and it's hard to think of a better date night spot in Toronto right now."

"Among the newest and more exciting additions to Toronto’s dining scene is Dreyfus. The 30-seat Harbord spot pulls inspirations from owner Zach Kolomeir’s French-Jewish heritage (the name Dreyfus stems from the 19th-century anti-semitism scandal of the same name). Food flits between cultural identities – expect croque cubanos and old-school classics."
