Went there last week for my birthday celebration...
Went there last week for my birthday celebration. It was amazing! I had the ahi tuna and it was the best ahi tuna I've ever had! The atmosphere was awesome! There was a live dj, the music was just right. The service was excellent. The girl that was serving our table was extremely hospitable and observant. I had a great time and I will definitely be back!
The moment we sat down the waitress was a space cadet. We gave her the benefit of the doubt because she had ONE other table that must have had her quite busy. She was unsure of the menu, couldn't answer simple dietary questions, and took one of our orders, and forgot to take the other. Keep in mind there were two of us, not a hard order to take. We asked for our salad first, clearly this was forgotten about as we watched the other table get 4 hot apps before we got a salad. We overheard her tell the 'cook' that we wanted a salad before hand far later, clearly she had forgotten. To make matters worse she randomly brought one of our meals, forgetting the other member of the party, leaving the food to gelatinize into whatever mess she had presented as pad thai. General etiquette states that people who go out for dinner together, might like to eat together. When I tried the flour and water mixture they called Thai sauce, I had vivid recollections of making paste in the first grade and being told not to eat it then, so why eat this now? When I sent it back, space cadet promptly made no appologies rather told me she liked it, and she knew wasn't as good as a Thai restaurant's, and had the audacity to suggest i just share the other diner's meal when it arrived. Horrible service, worse food, and an overall bad experience. Will not return and would warn others to stay away. Unless both the waitress and the cook have the night off.

Wow!! It was my first time to this restaurant,I was really impressed, there is no rush, the atmosphere is warm and inviting..and just a little romantic. The food was amazing, I will go there again and bring friends for sure, this would be a good place for a girls night out, stag, b-day. Try the candy apple martini

Nice cozy little place serving fantastic food, in an unrushed atmosphere where you can relax and enjoy. Good wine too! Don't go if you are on time restrictions.
FANTASTIC!
The staff is incredible.
There are not a whole lot of places around where the chef will come out personally to see how your dinner was.
The food was incredible. Such care taken, wonderful flavours.
However, I am still curious as to why there is greek food on an asian menu.
The location in Port Credit is far better than the Oakville one.
Been here about 30 times. It's got great food and a really nice atmosphere. It's too small for what it offers, but what can you do? Space is limited in that part of town.
The Toronto Star said it best - "An oasis of hipness in an otherwise suburban wasteland". It's not as hip as it used to be, but niether am I. Just because we used to be an 11 doesn't mean we don't deserve a 10 now.
Goodbye Asian restaurants in traffic invested Toronto...and say hello to Jam. We have finally found our new favorite restaurant in Oakville.
Amazing food, amazing drinks, amazing atmosphere, amazing service.
Extremely disappointed with the service. Would expect for servers and bartender to know what they are doing!! Service was very slow for such a small place. Food was excellent.
Come every so often to visit Jam. I was disappointed to see unfamiliar faces. In the past, service was great. My last visit was horrible. The drinks are not the same and neither is the service.
