“such a great atmosphere to hangout and have some amazing food! Our server Winter was very kind and accommodating to all of our needs! Definitely our favourite spot for nights out!”
“Last night was my 2nd time at this place. We showed up with no reservation and asked for a table for 15 people. They made it happen. The food was AMAZING! We split a few platters and everyone was happy and left very full.The prices were very reasonable. Our waiter, Emrah, was super attentive, funny and an overall happy guy! What a pleasure to have him take care of us. Please come check this place out! 🙏🏻”
“Urvesh was a really great server. Very friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our visit. Excellent service! Awesome place. Very fast and to the point service.”

“Otroligt god mat! Rekommenderar starkt deras halstrade lax i kombination med chilimajo. Deras rullar och poke bowls är också storfavoriter här hemma. Vardagslyx; 10/10!”
“Loved the food and the colorful ambience. I'm not a fan of Mexican food but my boyfriend loves it. I flipped the script and took him out to Casa Mexico in Kanata. He had the burritos and I had the quesabirrias (marinated shredded beef quesadillas). I am gluten-free and to find so much I could chose from.on a menu was great. Both plates were delicious. The decorations in bright colors were delightful. We're definitely going back to try the tacos.”

“Montana’s on Hazeldean is a great spot for vegetarians who want that BBQ atmosphere without the meat. The Veggie Burger is the standout here—it’s topped with sautéed peppers, onions, mushrooms, and goat cheese, which gives it way more flavor than a standard patty.
>
> I also highly recommend the Four-Cheese Spinach Dip as a starter; it’s rich, creamy, and comes with plenty of warm pita and chips. The service is always high-energy and the cabin-style vibe is fun for a group. It’s consistent, clean, and has enough solid meat-free options to make it a regular stop in Kanata. 10/10 for comfort food!”
“The WINGS are THE BEST & FRESH in Ottawa!! I go there every week atleast once. I order online in Wingsup.com and pick the food in a jiffy. Love the Jamaican hot 🥵 being an Indian this is so flavourful and spicy. Second best I like is Texas tequila flavour. Great boneless bites too 🔥🔥🔥”

“Truly SOOO DELICIOUS!! Perhaps the best torched sushi I’ve had in Ottawa. The fish is so fresh and even the vegetarian sushi is delicious. I am absolutely addicted to their Torched Crispy Tuna! Very reasonably priced too. The best in the city, just looking at these pics is making me crave them again.”
“Usually service and food is good. Today, july 22 around 2:30 it was someone different. I was only customer and the guy got it wrong. Ordered 2 meat/cheese. When I got home...no cheese. Also, dough was way too thin. And way too much spice. Sorry. It's usually my go to for Lebanese pies, but today's food was not up to snuff.”
“Seated in a timely manner. Staff is friendly.
Our server Polina demonatrated outstanding customer service skills.
Polina made our dinning experience a most pleasant one with her engaging, polite, and attentive manner.”
“We were part of a group of 32 of a soccer team, and our grandson's 16th birthday. Besides that, the staff were serving 2 other birthday parties, one being a 100 year old. Every one of the servers were friendly and efficient. Thanks so much for such a pleasant evening.”

“What a refreshing friendly place to have a beer and watch a bit of the game. The open concept bar/kitchen and brewing system make you feel like your one of the family. Staff were all excellent tonight but our table highlight of the night was Tory and Elissa who enthusiastically helped us decide what to order and made sure we were always taken care of throughout the night.
Can’t go without giving a big shout out to the boys in the kitchen who outdid themselves with original takes and innovative plates - Jacob and Josh.”
“Marie was by far the hardest worker in the restaurant, and she was a friendly face!
However the food left a bit to be desired, both the chicken and ribs were overcooked and dry. But most of the time when we come to this location the service is fast and the food is hot.”
“We just left here and the first thing I did when I arrived home was to sit down to write this review.
We were a party of 4 and arrived to a line up. We were told it would be approximately a 30 minute wait but we were seated in less than 10 minutes. So far so good.
Then we met our server, Afton, and our visit got much better. She was pleasant, accommodating, efficient, answered all of many questions with a smile. Nothing was too much to ask. We all agreed that she was one of the best servers we had ever met, and weez old so we know what what weez talking about!
The food was fresh, plentiful, and served hot with a 😃.
It is so true that one person can make or break a night. We were fortunate and are grateful for our experience.
Without a doubt we will be back and we sincerely hope we get to see Afton again!”
“Above-par, hard workin' staff that still take a moment to chat you up while mixing 4 shakes and managing the take-out counter. Superhuman Service! Loved my Reuben so much I bought the tshirt in the hopes they'll give me staff rate on my next meal ;) Hearty portions so plenty left to share with a fellow hosteller. 5-Stars, thanks for the comfort food since Winterlude hot chocolates as a kid in the 80s. Best Nostalgia Diner in the City”
“😀The Red Thai Currie with Sticky Rice (with extra chicken & Bamboo) is the best I've ever had had.”

“I picked up an Uber order from A&W and had a very smooth experience. Navpreet was extremely helpful and professional while handing over the order. She made sure everything was prepared properly and ready on time for pickup. Her friendly and respectful attitude made the process quick and pleasant. Great service for both customers and delivery partners!”
“I always have a great experience at Tim Hortons. The staff is friendly, professional, and very fast with service. The coffee is always fresh, and the food quality is consistent. The store is clean and has a nice atmosphere. It’s a perfect place to stop for coffee, breakfast, or a quick snack. Highly recommended! 👍☕”
“I want to give a huge shoutout to the manager (Damanpreet) at this Tim Hortons. Their leadership truly makes a difference. You can tell they care about both customers and staff—everything runs smoothly, the team is friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere is always welcoming. Even during busy times, the manager stays calm, professional, and supportive, which really shows in the quality of service. This location is consistently clean, well-organized, and reliable thanks to their great management. Tim Hortons is lucky to have such a dedicated and hardworking manager.”
“The food was amazing, of course we already knew that when we had the tasting. Great communication. We look forward to working with her again for family events.”
Takeout Restaurants
“The best customer service. Every time we visit kanata location, Simran gives us the most welcoming smiles, and prepare our orders exactly as want them (or better) and make us feel so welcomed, and everything taste better if you are happy. She has set the customer service bar very high; if we visit other places, they are never close to her efficiency. You are so lucky to have her.”
“I have had a chaotic year, and Shawarma Prince has been the absolute life saver to eat healthy. As a type 1 diabetic, the food here is healthy, low carb and really yummy! I go to the Merivale road location and the staff here are the absolute best! If you are looking for a healthy, affordable, mouth watering meal, this is the place to go...5 out of 5 stars. JJ...”

“What truly set this pizza apart was the freshness of the ingredients. The generous amount of paneer chunks scattered across the pizza ensured that each bite was packed with savory goodness. Paired with a variety of fresh vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes, every slice was a colorful mosaic of flavors.”
“My Better Half and myself were about to go order a couple pizzas when I noticed Pirho Grill. It looked interesting and she wanted to see what they offered. Since it's Friday, she does not eat meat. She loved the idea that you could build your own bowl and went for the All the Veggies. she especially like the Vegan Baked Zucchini cakes. Myself I got the Spicy lamb Meatballs. Our meals were excellent. She loved it. Told me it was much better than the Cheese or Vegetarian pizza she normally gets on these days and that'll become our goto place on Wednesdays (another day she does not eat meat) and Fridays. Place suits us both as we both can have what we want and eat healthy. She was especially happy with the Staff who were courteous and helpful with explanations and suggestions. Now, if you add some sort of fish to the menu, she'll be in Heaven :P Highly Recommend the place.”
“Sam and her staff really do care about the clients and their food. Attentive, eager to help, always checking on how things are going & genuinely want to make sure people are happy. Prices are reasonable & the beer is cold. The Sens shuttle is very convenient. A great locally owned place to support & not too far away!! Thanks Sam!”
“I recently visited my cousin, and she graciously invited us to breakfast at this lovely place. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with plenty of seating options. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. They were also very helpful with refilling our coffee, which was a nice touch. And the food was absolutely delicious!”
“Great place to eat and talk over Drinks! Well run eatery with personable Owner who seems to always be there working along side her staff! Food is always well prepared and tasty! Our go to place!!!”
Cheap Eats
“10/10 for this fantastic place, my wife is pregnant and only wanted to eat this, and I usually pick up as I'm rural, but I'm stuck working, and this wonderful restaurant still took my delivery order and delivered, even though it was 35 minutes away and we were outside the zone. Food was hot, fresh, and exactly as asked for. High quality, and a very happy pregnant wife. Amazing people here, which is why we keep coming back again and again!”
“Had an amazing experience at Subway! The food was absolutely fresh and delicious — you can really taste the quality in every bite. The staff was super friendly, patient, and made sure everything was exactly how I wanted. Great customer service and quick service too! Definitely one of the best Subway locations I’ve been to. Highly recommend!”
“'This' Wine Garden location is a fantastic spot. I made wine years ago and stopped going for a few reasons. Sure, I liked the lower price, and the flavor was decent, but the staff and environment were very dry/bland. When I stepped in to this store and met these people, I decided it was time to start again. The wine is amazing, the price is great, and the people here are amazing. Visit Matt at The Wine Garden . . . you'll start again too.”
“We ordered the kids quesadilla meal at BarBurrito Kanata, and it was such a great choice! The quesadilla was warm, cheesy, and just the right size for kids. It also came with chips, salsa, and a water bottle — such a nice touch for a complete meal. My child really enjoyed everything, and the staff were friendly and quick to serve. The place was clean and welcoming too. Definitely recommend this location for families!”
“Oshi was super kind and answered the questions I had about refills very patiently. I stayed almost till closing time and the other staff that were tidying up were also very friendly. Great place to come and get some work done, and it makes you leave with a smile when kind people are working there. Thanks again!”
“This review comes from an Uber eats order I made.
Heres what i ordered:
Pad Thai, shrimp; "very" spicy and "extra sauce".
And, it's what I got. I'd say the spice level on their most spicy option is like a medium spice, just FYI. For me, it's perfect as it doesn't take away from the eating experience, it's spicy but, you get the full flavor of the sauce and it's delicious.
Loved what I got. Thank you to the team!”
“The food is amazing I tried different dishes every time and it’s a mouth watering dishes. Chaats are the best 5/5 . I recommend others to visit this restaurant. Customer service is excellent. I will definitely come soon again to try something new”
“Fratelli’s is a must visit when I am in Kanata for Business! Absolutely love the Fish Soup, my favorite dish. The wait staff is by far the most attentive and friendly.”

“Food is always hot and delicious. My local go-to in Kanata for Chinese takeout.”
“Love their appetizers but not the sushi. Sashimis were not that fresh. Still probably the best ayce place you can find. I hope they improve their taste on sushi’s, rolls and sashimis. Otherwise a good place.”

“Visited for a patio dinner on a Saturday evening. Good menu, clean venue, wait staff pleasant, food was good! But I have to point out a major faux-pas. I ordered the deep fried cheesecake for dessert. It was supposed to come with strawberry and chocolate sauce & whip cream. They were out of strawberry sauce but didn't mention it when I ordered and so was not given the option to choose something else. Another restaurant runner dropped it off with NO toppings whatsoever... I thought the toppings might come after, but after a while ate it as it was (it was good but would have been so much better with even only one of the toppings) Finally when our bill came, we mentioned that the dessert had no toppings. We were told the waitress was new and didn't realize.... I get that... but what I wasn't expecting was that we still had to pay full price for the dessert---no discount, no other offer. That was very disappointing service... I suppose I could have complained or asked to speak to a "manager" but at that point just really wanted to leave. Because everything else about the restaurant was good---and so happy it's even Canadian---we will return... hoping for a better experience”

“I was mostly impressed with the atmosphere and interior look of this restaurant, also I have to mention my server was amazing ... she overheard me mention to my date that my birthday was just 2 days ago ... next thing I saw was a beautiful slice of cake coming right at me. I would definitely go back to this location.”

“For the second year in a row my girlfriend and I have taken a snowmobile ride to the brookstreet hotel where we’ve sat down for a meal at the Options Jazz Lounge. The atmosphere is amazing and they were super accommodating allowing us to store our large helmets next to our table. The live music makes for an amazing atmosphere and the Caesar salad it incredible. I highly recommend.”
