great food, interesting combinations of herbs, spices and and proteins; well presented and delicious; gorgeous views and pleasant ambiance; only negative was having to ask to have our water glasses filled and having to tend my own wine glass, either our server needed more training or experience

Beautiful setting, very good food selection and at a reasonable price.

"George" was out wait person and you can tell right away that he is a professionsl and knowledgible person in the industry.

We will be back soon.

This is the second time we went to Compass for a family occasion, and once again we were delighted. The location is beautiful, the menu has something to tempt everyone, and everything was beautifully prepared with fresh ingredients. What really sets Compass apart is the friendly and knowlegeable staff. We had six adults and a restless seven-year-old, and the waiters and kitchen staff did a great job keeping everyone happy. We are eager to go back!

Compass is one of my most visited restaurants. When someone comes to visit, I always take them to Compass. The ambience is very nice and everyone enjoys having a meal by the lake. It has such a great view! And of course, the food is delicious. I think I tried majority of the items on the menu and they were all great!

I have had the most pleasent service and best food at the Compass lakeside Grill in Bronte. It is located on the lake and therefor the view is just as nice as the people who work there. We came for a birthday celebration on the Friday night and our table was waiting for us along with our server she was very attentive and pleasant which is sometime hard to find all in one server. Highly recommend this restaurant for a great meal with a view and friendly and staff it has it all going for it.

The service was good as was the food

Service was professional, friendly and prompt. Like the new menu and drink recommendations. The view of the Bronte Marina from the patio is terrific on a sunny day.

If Compass were realestate it would win hands-down in the location,location,location category. Even if the meals were bad- the views would transcend that. But the food is good.
Stay away from the expensive holiday-inn style Sunday brunch...and order from the menu.We prefer weekday lunchtime..because weeknds have become crowded and service has been affected. The staff is pleasant- but a word to management. Stop telling young staff that patrons must BUY their water..because at almost five dollars a pitcher -it is unfiltered goodness. That sales pitch knocked you out of the Cucci, Julia's and Corks first class category. Sell your food,mixed drinks, and oh yes... that unbeatable Bronte view and everyone will keep coming back.

Six of us dined and drank tonight. The service was great. The flavours of the food was great. Very good presentation. The only beef was the salad we ordered, was dinner size and it seemed very small. Greens are cheap...fill the plate.

I am an Oakville resident and frequent diner at the compass lakeside grill and lounge and each time i have brought different friends and family and have always enjoyed my experience. From personable and attentive service staff, to equisite flavours at a reasonable price you cant go wrong. With the beaufirul patio and modern dining room, this is the best dining experience you will find in Oakville! Oh yes and try the wings....amazing!
