The same place as the Ox and Angela, but renovated and now operating under the name of The Ox, and still serving great tapas with super service.My son and I were there for brunch one sunny August morning. Lots of choices, many tapas items, some breakfast plates (bennies, eggs, salads, all with a Spanish twist) and a set price 3 course brunch special. We opted for the tapas since that would give us the widest flavour spread and taste. We tend to d that with a new place to see what the kitchen can do. I started with a coffee, nice and my cup was ever full.So, we ordered 6 tapas items and all were wonderful.- stuffed dates - 3 dates stuffed with cheese, at $9,, a little pricey, but oh, so delicious.- serrano ham - very tasty smoked and cured ham $14, be warned though, it does not come with bread or crackers.- ensalada - my son's green choice, a large green salad with apple slices and shredded cheese, $11.- toritlla - a large slice of a cheese omelette with paprika and aioli topping, $7.- patates brava - $10 for a large plate of small potatoes fried and on a salsa sauce topped with garlic aioli, yummy!- spinach potato croquet- $8 for 2 deep fried potato and spinach mixture.Everything was no less than super tasting. As I said, service was outstanding. The only downside is that the place is a little pricey, but then, you do get what you pay for.The bill total, excluding tip, was $66. You must give The Ox a try even if it means going out of your way.
