Best Rated Movie Theaters in Oakville

"The TIFF Lightbox is one of those places that helps to solve the conundrum "I'm bored!" without turning to your Smartphone. This building is set up to allow you to watch all of the film festival favorites, as well as the fantastic films that slip under the radar when the next Avengers movie dominates the box office. There are snacks (guacamole instead of popcorn should become a thing everywhere) and they do not frown at people who see wine as a perfectly viable concession snack."

"Toronto is famous for the Toronto International Film Festival, which delivers as much clout in the sphere of film as the likes of Cannes and Sundance.

"Take a guided tour around Elgin & Winter Garden Theatres – Toronto’s best-kept secret. This double-decker theatre is the last operating one in the world, making it even more impressive!. Go behind-the-scenes at Elgin & Winter Garden Theatres to take a closer look and learn about its fascinating history. You will be surprised how different the old-fashioned Elgin Theatre is from the forest-like Winter Garden Theatre on the upper level."

"This restored masterpiece is the world's last operating Edwardian double-decker theater. Celebrating its centennial in 2013, the Winter Garden was built as the flagship for a vaudeville chain that never really took off, while the downstairs Elgin was converted into a movie house in the 1920s. Fascinating tours run Mondays at 5pm and Saturdays at 10am. "

"This tour's first bus leaves from Yonge-Dundas Square and the pass is good for three consecutive days. Stay aboard for the full two-hour tour, or if you're itching to tackle Toronto , hop off at one of the 21 stops, which include many of Toronto's top attractions, such as the CN Tower, the Eaton Centre, Art Gallery of Ontario, Casa Loma and the Royal Ontario Museum. Consult with the guides for optimum planning and when the busses will be stopping at certain locations. Don't miss the boat tour at the Harbourfront, which is included in your ticket."

"The last area of the day is Dudas Square which is like a mini Times Square. Here you’ll find the Eaton Centre, the city’s largest mall and plenty of restaurants. Across from the Eaton Centre there are some restaurants a few storey’s up where you can grab a place on the patio and overlook all of the action in the square."

"an apt Celine-inspired tagline for this super quirky queer gem!. Buddies is a queer theatre space by day and on weekends transforms into one of Toronto's best gay nightclubs. And greatly needed, we might add!"

"There was a time when Toronto didn’t have overflowing Sushi eateries. There are seemingly many options whether you like hand-rolled or maki, nigiri, or even U-Dong noodles, Oyshi Sushi is a high-end splurge for a Sushi corner in Toronto and is one of the best South Asian restaurants in Toronto. Welcoming guests with complimentary green tea, one can have Tempura, Sushimi, Sushi Pizza, Chicken, or Beef Teriyaki with some beer to accompany, courtesy to bar attached."

"We pass through Leslieville every single day heading to and from work. One day, in particular, we were walking through and made the stop."

"Claimed to be the first eatery in the city to offer panzarottis, Valentino’s offers an incredible selection of Italian menu items from homemade mini arancini to shrimp & scallop linguine. Their pizzas are made with homemade dough and their panzarottis are some of the best you’ll ever have."

"Double check your order for take out.You will pay for something and once you get home it's missing. They dont care to offer you a credit nor replace..."

"There’s yet another embarrassing moment that I once experienced at The Mule, and it somehow includes a big bag of Nibs. Again, I won’t go into details; because The Mule is an epic taco joint that deserves way more attention than a girl who always finds herself in the weirdest of situations."

"If you’re in the mood for tacos in Hamilton, The Mule has some pretty darn delicious tacos. The Mule offers all kinds of delicious Mexican street food eats and an extensive list of alcoholic drinks!. They’ve also got a cozy and intimate patio hidden behind the restaurant."

"On weekdays, Ricarda’s Toronto location is home to the entertainment and ad agency crowd, but on Sunday, it’s all-you-can-eat buffet time, and kids are more than welcome. This vast Mediterranean venue turns out a spread with literally everything you could think of, from house-baked breads and pastries to fresh seafood. Beyond the dining, there’s lots to keep kiddos entertained, including live jazz, a bouncy castle, and an architecturally stunning atrium where they can have fun running around."

"Another appearance of a live jazz band, but we’re not complaining!. Ricarda’s, located right downtown on Peter Street, is a more upscale version of the all-you-can-eat brunch experience. The ambiance of the restaurant is beautiful and bustling, with gold embellishments popping up everywhere."

"The sleek interior design of Ricardas is immediately relaxing, including marble tables with hardwood floors. The space is inviting with its clean lines, but it is worth staying for the baked goods alone. Breakfast is a treat any day of the week, but especially Sundays with live jazz."
