Chef Liz’s Oasis Cafe

Ordered delivery around 11am as I was too busy to go get it… arrived after about 15 – 20 minutes, food was very well packaged/​sealed, and delivery driver was very nice. I ordered the double BLT, salad, and chicken noodle soup. Everything food wise was delicious! And being an avid bacon lover, i’m ALWAYS skeptical about somewhere new and their bacon … to my surprise the bacon was crunchy but not burnt, and wasn’t stringy like some places! Soup was still hot and good as well. Salad was made to order and the italian dressing was perfect! I will absolutely be returning and probably bringing people with me! A++ IMO

Mediocre service at best. I work in the building and have been 3 times. The first two were to buy a coke and a dessert item to augment the lunch I brought from home. Both times I was asked «is that all?!?»
Not good. My third try I decided to order a full lunch. I walk in and start ordering my two tacos and the guy looks at me like I have broken some cardinal rule. He states «you have to pay first. Please order at the register.» Please note that I was one of two customers present at this time.
On a positive note, the 2 jr. cheese deluxes I got from the Wendy’s drive-​thru around the corner after promptly walking out of this place were delicious.

The food here is great, cooked from scratch, with a lot of creativity involved. As they have a new, diverse special every day, it’s best to get on their email list. They also have meatless options.

They change the menu up every week, featuring a different item every day. I stop by frequently for breakfast, which I will do after I finish typing this. Good portion sizes. For other vegetarians that may see this, Meatless Mondays are a great value for a good selection of veg friendly items. Recent items have included meatless meatloaf and vegetarian chili.

I eat here at least 3 – 4 times a week for lunch, staff is super friendly and food is great. I generally either get the salad bar or the buffet of the day. They are in the process of swapping menu items. Give them a try!

This place is very convenient if you work in the Maitland Blvd /​Kellar Rd area. It is where Chef Jerome’s used to be. I have eaten breakfast and lunch here twice. The first time was when they first opened and the food was not very good. The cheese on my breakfast sandwich wasn’t melted and my bagel was dry. Lunch buffet was a disappointment as well. There was a dried out chicken breast in a jerk sauce and boring vegetables and rice pilaf.
HOWEVER, I have been back in the last month and happy to report an improvement. I had a breakfast sandwich that was nice and hot, with melted cheddar and real eggs. I returned today for the create your own pasta bar/​action station and found a nice surprise. They had an assortment of fresh vegetables, two sauces that are made in house, meatballs, and three types of pasta including, wait for it…, gnocchi! You choose your pasta, sauce and add ons and they heat it for you in a pan. I had the penne pasta with tomato sauce, mushrooms and spinach. Pasta was nicely cooked — not too overdone, and the sauce and add ons were tasty. I do hope this place thrives because there aren’t many non-​chain options in this area of town. If you tried it early on I would suggest giving it another try as things have improved. I will be back to try additional menu items and I will update my review accordingly.
