“Omg how did I not know about this place before today. The food was amazing. The wine was affordable. The desert was to die for and the check was decent priced. I don’t remember the last time I finished my main and dessert and the wine. :) loved it and the server Deb was amazing. 10 stars out of 5”

“John's service amazing just like Brock's, who will sadly be missed. Always good food and good times.”

“Fantastic food, very pleasant and helpful staff. All round great experience. The menu was full of great stuff and it was hard to pick something as we call could have chosen anything. Super helpful with wine choices too. We were a group of 5 and it was great. Definitely recommend”

“Very friendly atmosphere and amazing staff. Felt like we were at home and so welcomed!! The pizza is amazing!! My dog Bella loved it too ??”

“Went here for our 2nd wedding anniversary. A very delicious widespread of food! We were not disappointed. Amazing customer service, cute drinks, and yummy food. What more could we ask for?! One of our favourites was their unique dinner for two, fried chicken pizza and salad! Very filling, a good contrast, and not greasy! We will definitely be back!”

“Tried the fried mozzarella burger and kettle chips. Best Burger ive ever had! 10/10”

“On average we get take out from Sula Wok once per week. We love the food and the vibe of the place. (Sula and her gang are also very nice to deal with). I really like the traditional Pad Thai. Recently, Sula asked that I try a slightly new version of the dish (apparently less fishy). Sula asked that I let her know if I liked it or not. While I thought the taste was a little different (maybe not as spicy or “fishy”), I still loved it and will be ordering it again.”

“My family really loves to eat here.I celebrated my birthday tonight and we had fun we’re all satisfied.It is worth the price!!I also appreciate Sherry for serving us.She is really nice and patient even if we never stopped ordering.Thank you so much!!”

“Top shop for a scoop with homemade cones and nut-free and vegan options try it!”

“Majid our waiter was super nice, efficient and the food was brought to our table in a very coordinated well (hummus and babaghanoug and the salad before the grillades). We didn’t feel at any point that we were missing something at the table and he was very generous and courteous”

“Best service good quality”

“First time trying the pizza here at Giovanni’s Snack Bar and Pizzeria. Absolutely delicious!! Ordered the Margarita Pizza. Giovanni was extremely kind from the moment I walked in until I left today. I would highly recommend choosing Giovanni’s the next time you are craving pizza or when you’re in the area!”

“Very nice and clean pizza restaurant, amazing service and food, you should visit and taste it”

“Absolutely amazing experience! Delicious food and amazing service. We will be back ! Thank you so much !!”

“Had a great experience at this location. The staff are friendly and Sadaf was very helpful in restoring the fountain drinks so quickly! Highly reccomend this location.”

“What a pleasure to have been able to reopen the restaurant with you! Everything was perfect and the service impeccable! nice discovery!”

“Great time overall, we had the fish tacos and pizza, let me just say the pizza was WAYYYY better than I anticipated like one of the best pizzas I’ve had in the city??? Idk how that happened. Their lava cake was moist and hot- amazing too tbh. For the amount of tables and seats in the place, it gets so full and the number of workers is so low for the amount of customers it gets rly hectic. Ur servers are great at explaining the games, and just being there if u need them- there’s just not enough of them on a busy friday night!”

“What a beautiful trendy spot! I had such a wonderful birthday celebration there today. Our chef was beaming with pride for his dishes and the atmosphere was friendly and classy. I loved the below taste experience main - packed with flavour. My only complaint is I could have stayed longer! (we had a show to catch) Highly highly recommend”

“Went here two days ago with my family and enjoyed the food so much. Very authentic persian food! amazing service and atmosphere too. the owner was wonderful to us.”

“Stopped by on way back from cottage for 1st time. Told them I love great smoked meat, years ago I worked across the street from Nates. Bought a pound, some rye bread and a couple pickle slices to go. Thick hand sliced. Wife and I loved it. As good as Nates. Will be going back, often. Now if you could open a shop around Hunt Club...”

“The vatican was amazing. loved how different and fresh it was.”

“GREAT FOOD. Gyoza, Mediterranean Bowl, Sushi Cones, Guacamole, and great drinks”

“Great food! Atmosphere was great, and the waitress was very accommodating. Only thing I can suggest was the tables are too small.”

“I was impressed with the quality and the service was on point! Wonderful. We went for brunch as a family and will definitely be back for brunch and to try their dinner options”

“Highly recommend! I was hesitant at first because I had no idea what the majority of menu items were. I was completely blown away. I am a very picky person, but the menu and how the food was explained in full detail, no matter the question by our incredible waitress was the first sign this is the place to be! A huge thank you to the waitress especially, the staff as a whole and a huge high-five to the chefs for clearly putting your all in to every single menu item. I was fortunate enough to run in to one of the owners and give my nothing short of positive feedback. He was so grateful and humble. Keep it up all! Would recommend to anyone. Will be back!”

“As always, a fabulous experience from the moment you walk in the door to the moment you leave. Love supporting this family run business that has been a fixture in my hometown for over 30 years. Basil and family - you never disappoint! A great place to celebrate my last birthday of my 40’s (shhh, I kept that quiet). Cheers to you all! ❤️🥂”

“food is good - the tacos have generous portions of meat and marinated well!

price is fair and servers are friendly

the atmosphere rating is low because the booth we were in was freezing as the cold air was directed on our feet. the music is way too loud to be able to talk…”

“WOW great food, great atmosphere and most of all our server Kady was phenomenal! Very respectful, kind, friendly and knowledgeable of the menu and cocktails. Would definitely recommend this location in Ottawa and ask for Kady!!! 💕 🍹🍸”

“Cool vibe, great staff, delicious eats, validated parking…nothing but good things to say! Went for brunch today and will definitely be back…looking forward to trying the whole menu!!”

“We received a gift card from a family member for $100 USD as a Christmas Present and were excited about enjoying a meal at this restaurant. The gift card was purchased directly from Joey's, not a 3rd party. We went and everything initially about the restaurant was very enjoyable. The food was very good, the service was attentive and we enjoyed our experience until the cheque arrived. When we we presented the gift card (electronically) our server went to speak with a ⁶manager and then returned to inform us that the $100 USD would be honoured in Canadian dollars. $100 USD is worth $144.50 Canadian dollars according to google when checked today. We paid the bill and tipped the service team 22% and left after effectively having $44.50 taken from us and our family member in what felt like to us, theft by conversion. The manager in question did not come to follow up after our expressing our disappointment JOEY's is already a very expensive restaurant. Further, the gift card information indicates that Joey's has US based restaurants. I'm quite sure that Canadian dollar gift cards are not accepted at par in the US. This ruined for us, what was otherwise a positive experience, through what felt like to us, an act of corporate greed and impersonal profiteering. After this experience we will not be back and sadly, I cannot recommend JOEY's as a place for anyone else to dine at. Any company that sells a gift card directly and then fails to deliver full value is patently dishonest, in my opinion.”

“Not a big place but that doesn't take away from the awesomeness.
Our hostess and server (Jamie) were amazing. The food came to us piping hot and delicious. What a great place to eat.”

“The new pumpkin spice bagel...it was worth going for!
All the breakfast sandwiches and kniches were so enjoyable
The coffee and creamer were drying up, but that shows how popular it is”

“Pleasant and efficient staff.”

“I couldn’t figure out what drink I wanted to accompany my breakfast combo and Tayaba asked me to trust her. No regrets, this coffee mixed concoction has changed my life!

Timmie’s if you can drop a comment to remind me what it was I would be VERY appreciative.”

“이번 가을에 방문예정”

“I enjoyed the crispy crunch combo, it tasted very fresh. The combo was very appetizing and filling as well. I would love to eat this everyday! The customer service was great too. The lady that works there was very kind to me and I had a great time talking to her. I come to this specific sushi shop all the time.”

“I recommend Kettlemans as the food is good and they have good variety. That said. The service is sub-par. My wife and I stop here regularly on Sunday Mornings about 7 am 2 or 3 times a month. Consistently nobody greets us even though there are many workers who make eye contact and just keep doing whatever they're doing. More often than not we have to call out to get attention after waiting several minutes at the front counter. Management doesn't seem to value customer service and simply expects people to keep coming back as if Kettlemans' history entitles them to customers. That is a surprising attitude in an otherwise excellent store.”

“I will say that when stepping into this location, wow clean from store frpnt to washrooms to eating area its presentation and focus on making sure customers felt welcome. A clean atmosphere in customer service was at its 👌 highest”

“I used the drive thru to grab a quick lunch. They greeted me in French so I asked if they spoke English, using very bad French, and was able to be accomodated. The chicken bacon ranch wrap I ordered was fresh and as good as Tim Hortons food gets. I did end up waiting for a minute at the pick up window. Overall a good experience.”

“Pretty good here, its small but you still get what you want and it tastes delicious! Thank you guys. I dont have to cross the street to go to the bigger one! So yeah, Thank You.”

“I came around 3am in the morning and ordered teen burger combo with rings. The food was freshly prepared and delicious. The service was really good and fast. The one who served me was really friendly and helpful”

“Had a great experience at Subway! The service was excellent, and everything was quick, fresh, and well prepared. Jaideep provided especially friendly and attentive service, which made the visit even better. Definitely a great place to grab a quick and tasty meal. Highly recommend!”

“Fries good...veggie burger good,chicken burger awful!
Nice outdoor tables, uncomfortable indoor tables, 24 hours good,
A good selection of teas !!!
Overall ,one of the better fast food places.
Indoor dining is noisy....poor acoustics!
The beef is good. Bacon 🥓 is available.
Self fill for sofdrinks.
The shopping center here cold and windy in winter.
Really, really, really MISSING the enclosed MALL !”

“This Tim Hortons was amazing they were honestly the best one I’ve been to. The employees were great with very good service. I would recommend you come here.”

“The staff is always friendly and generous with portions when I ask for more items on my sub. Always yummy!”

“Best food and best service ever! We love this neighbourhood institution.”

“Found this place on google when searching for banh cuon in Ottawa. This place did not disappoint. The banh cuon was delicious. My girlfriend and i got pho, a vermicelli bowl, banh cuon and spring rolls. All of it was so good. The coconut shake was really good as well. We will definitely be back again.”

“I was craving shawarma and found this place on my way home from work. I'm new to Ottawa and my shawarma standards are high because my hometown has amazing shawarma that no other spots have come close to and I've tried many places already in Ottawa. Let me tell you, this place DID NOT DISSAPOINT! Amazing shawarma every bit of it! I will definitely be returning. The best I've had in Ottawa by FAR!”

“Opening day in Old Ottawa South -- delicious sandwiches and the best cannoli I have had in years... welcome to the neighbourhood Roberto's Corner!”

“A great place to go if you are out in the Byward Market area in Ottawa and love sushi!! Lots of delicious options available! I got a sushi platter that had a variety of fish. Very fresh and filling! Quick service and reasonable prices! We will be back the next time we are in Ottawa!”

“Great place great food and nice service 🍲😊❤️”

“Some of the best ice cream I've ever had. I love their staff policy, wonderful to see businesses caring.”

“I haven’t even finished eating yet and I had to write this review. The noodles are soft and delicious all in the right ways. The staff is kind and welcoming. I’m from out of town and I will surely wait to try these hand pulled noodles again someday!”

“The best Falafel ever, very tasty 👌🏻”

“Great food I go there for the great poutine..they are not cheap with the sauce and curds ❤️”

“Amazing little place!! Very friendly and delicious waffles.”

“My wife and my favourite food in the world are meat and cheese pies. Everyone needs to try these pies and then add them to their lives as a staple food. There’s nothing like ordering pies and eating them right away in your car. So flavourful, so gooey and cheesy. Get them with spice and lemon juice, Omg! I feel like I’m writing an erotic novel rather than a review but they are that amazing!”

“Best smoothies, gelato I’ve ever had !”

“Don't sleep on their doughnuts! There are some great doughnut choices in Ottawa but my favourite ones are the ones they sell here, at their storefront. They have lots of options with many yeast-style, and I find alongside the regular flavours, they change it up depending on the season.”

“Stop reading this and go. Sooooooo delicious…. 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤”

“We tried Sona the Indian Kitchen on a recommendation. We were hungry mid afternoon and our go-to for Indian cuisine was not yet open and Sona was. WE ARE SO HAPPY with our experience ❤️ the food was amazing and the service was gracious. They have definitely gained us as repeat customers.”

“We arrived at closing time after arriving from Montreal. The owner stayed open longer just for us. The scones are fantastic as was the almond cake. My daughter commented on the good coffee. After our snack we crossed the Alexandra Bridge and drove straight to Fort-Coulonge, Quebec.”

“Delicious food and great service, the atmosphere as was so cute and fun with nice decorations. The poke bowl was delicious not to much rice and the sauce was tasty. The mango went well with the tuna and salmon.”

“The family in the kitchen is as amazing as the food. I will visit here anytime I am in Ottawa. probably the best chicken I have ever had. Thanks for the tour Ramone. Your pride in your product shows in the taste.....”

“We went this morning, on May 20th for our 48th wedding anniversary brunch. The food was incredible, the best we ever ate for breakfast. The waitress was excellent, so attentive and we were treated with a poached pear for our anniversary dessert. The food is exceptional, a must if you are in Ottawa in the Byward Market area.”

“Amazing Greek food, can be prepared 100% celiac safe, they're very knowledgeable as they have celiac in the family we well. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The Greek souvlaki shack is our go to anytime we get takeout”

“What a lovely place! Very welcoming and friendly, with super delicious food and a great selection, including awesome desserts! We were starved, so had a lot of food, including starters/snacks and dessert in addition to the main meal, and every single item was great. If you can, try the chocolate mousse cake! The best.”

“Loved this place, came with my family and the service was amazing . The food was to die for. And they honestly were really amazing with my kids. I know it’s hard to take your family out sometimes and sometimes you share what you all have. But how they treated us so amazing with sharing the meal with my family of 4, and we only ordered 2 meals. And the waitress was so amazing because my kids really wanted tot try the ice cream but it wasn’t in the budget… but she saw how bad they wanted it and gave it to them on the house. I’m telling you now I will be coming here a lot more.”

“Went to the Fatboy Burgers food truck at the Cyrville location for lunch and got the burger and fries. Everything was amazing. The burger was cooked perfectly, fresh, juicy, and really good quality. The fries were great too. Definitely enjoyed it and I’ll be going back again!”

“Genuinely the best shawarma I have tried in Ottawa. The family that owns it is incredibly kind, warm and welcoming, would absolutely recommend. Thank you for great food”

“We have visited twice so far and the food is always délicieux. We can't get enough of the Rosebowl Platter for 2. Can't go wrong with this option. You get a little bit of everything.”

“Amazing service and a culinary experience !!!”

“One of the best tasting menus I have had in Ottawa!”

“was a great experience 10 outta 10”

“I have used The Baker In Pajamas for several of my children's birthday cakes, so when my wedding cake baker had to cancel at the last minute, I didn't hesitate to reach out to her.
Not only was she incredibly helpful with such a last-minute request, but she also did an amazing job. The cake was absolutely beautiful and tasted even better than it looked! My guests couldn't stop complimenting it, and some even went back for third and fourth servings.
If you're looking for someone to make a cake for a birthday, wedding, or any special occasion, I highly recommend The Baker In Pajamas. Her talent, professionalism, and delicious cakes are truly outstandin”

“Unpretentious, unique menu, great service & great people!”

“Amazing food, staff and atmosphere. Loved it!”

“As a wedding photographer, I always want couples to walk away from events with a little treat that leaves a lasting impression – and Batter Up Bakery absolutely delivered! I ordered a batch of custom cookies for a wedding venue open house, and they were a huge hit with everyone who attended. Jamie-Lynn nailed the simple, elegant design I envisioned, and the cookies tasted absolutely delicious. Working with her was such a joy – she’s attentive, creative, and so easy to communicate with. If you're looking for sweet treats that look and taste amazing, I can't recommend Batter Up Bakery enough! 🌟”

“Amazing restaurant! The food was fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. Everything was clean, Ryma was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was great. You can really tell they care about quality and their customers. Highly recommended—I’ll definitely be coming back! 👌🔥”

“First time coming here from out of town. I was told their sandwiches were amazing and no lies were told. The staff and the sandwiches are a must if you are visiting Ottawa.”

“We stumbled upon this restaurant because we were looking for a quick lunch, and Vietnamese is typically quick. What we didn’t expect was how flavourful it would be!!! This was for certain the best Vietnamese food I’ve ever eaten. I had the beef vermicelli with half salad/half vermicelli and my kiddo had beef pho. The salad part of my vermicelli was so flavourful with tons of fresh mint and cilantro. My kiddo was also blown away and finished every bit of the very large serving of pho. I will make a point of returning every time I am in Ottawa. Oh - and the restaurant was spotless!”

“Now that was a fantastical tuna sandwich! I can’t believe I didn’t know about this place ! I found it through a Google maps search for a sandwich place while I was near the area and decided to check it out. So delicious... I’ll be back!”

“This is our favorite location!
Staff are always happy and happy to see you, they take great care in everything they do. Very quickly they know and welcome you. Your not just another number here, that's why we always return. Keep up the good work everyone”

“Rambutan juice & panini is an excellent place to go! we went with family and loved their crepes, happy smoothies , club sandwiches ! amazing service, very good people , loved everything and prices are so reasonable 👌 would definitely recommend them to everyone :) they're also open late on weekends!”

“First time trying the food here (as you can see I couldn’t wait and had some of it) really good presentation and great taste service is super friendly!”

“Tried the fried mozzarella burger and kettle chips. Best Burger ive ever had! 10/10”

“Can I give them 10/5?”

“amazing honestly I havent had crispy fry poutine and cheese curds that actually melted amazing you guys are all wonderful thanks for providing excellent food for the Ottawa mustang club”

“BLTs Jj Goode, updated; New York Times, August 3, 2026 A BLT for any season, this version doesn’t depend on the perfect tomato, nor bacon with pedigree, for that matter. Instead, it leans on a few details that can elevate the lowliest ingredients. Slathering one side of bread with mayo and griddling it gives supermarket white a crackling veneer, while leaving the rest suitably soft and squishy. Sprinkling the tomato with salt and letting it sit a while helps the seasoning penetrate. Baking the bacon leaves it stick-straight (so the sandwich is less likely to topple), while pulling it from the oven before it’s fully crisp keeps it a little fatty. A slab of iceberg — cut crosswise from the whole head (preferably from the center) — is a game-changer, ensuring the sandwich's structural integrity and delivering exceptional crunch. Whenever I have a bad day and don’t know what to eat. Where do I go? Al’s Diner. Why? Because the BLT sandwich there is made exactly as described above. The method is a version assimilated from the best. The white bread is perfectly toasted with lots of mayonnaise. The bacon is perfectly grilled so that it is juicy and crisp. The tomato is a huge slice, just firm enough and the lettuce is several layers of the iceberg variety. Our favorite server seats us in our favorite place when we appear! We feel better as soon as we take the first bite!!”

“I had not seen my brother from another mother in almost 3 years so when he visited Ottawa this past weekend I made a dinner reservation for Sunday night. I made this reservation, partly on some reviews I had seen and having eaten the lobster ravioli previously as a takeout menu option. The restaurant is in a beautiful century home with photos adjoining the walls of all the famous politicians, musicians, and other stars from Ottawa or having eaten there while visiting the capital that have eaten there. The service was exceptional, the waiter stopped by every few minutes to top up our water or ask if we needed anything. Onto the food… We found the food to be pedestrian at Best. I would’ve rated it at 3.8 and my dinner companion at 3.4 but we do not have those options here. My lobster ravioli had a sauce that was heavy enough to anchor a boat although it offered a nice flavour pallet. His veal was similar, tender with a nice mushroom sauce however it was overly salted. I recommend this place as long as you know what you’re getting ahead of time. The prices are on the high side, but certainly not the most expensive in the Ottawa region.”

“We had reserved a table for 14 people for lunch at 11:30 today. Everything was perfect. Tables were ready,. Our server 117, Grace was terrific! Friendly, quiet and very efficient! All different orders but everything was delicious. We will be back. Thanks”

“Just had the House Special. 10/10. I believe this was the best pizza I have ever had. My wife also loved her BBQ Meat Lovers (9/10)”

“Really tasty fish & chips!! Friendly staff and a nice local pub feel!”

“Great food!”

“great food /place family owned service great ideal for solo or groups”

“This restaurant is incredible! They are a top restaurant in Ottawa .The prices are reasonable and the food is extra great! The service is great also great..”

“FOR WHAT YOU PAY, GREAT VALUE. SO YUMMY!”

“The best Pho restaurant in Ottawa Ontario and area.”

“Everything is great, except for the music which is way too loud. Hard to have a nice conversation, feels like being in a night club; lowering the sound would make this place perfect.”

“Great food and service. Mussels and seafood linguine were delicious!”

“Outstanding experience, from the service to the food. I took Istanbul Basha and felt could feed 2 persons, keep up the great work”

“Two Mexican guys listening to Latin music and cooking fresh and delicious tacos. Get the Al Pastor and you will not be disappointed.”

“Best wings in otdawa”

“The breakfast is worth the spend, Jeremy took excellent care of us and went out of his way to make quick breakfast arrangements for us for our early departure, excellent experience!”

“Suki, Thank you for the warm welcome and great service today. This is the second time I bring my co-workers to Mill St Pub, not only for the great beer and food, but the wonderful sercice which is always done with a smile and the occasional hug ;-) looking forward to returning soon. Hope you will still be there - I have a feeling the place would not be the same without you ;-) p.s. Amy... thank you so very much for accommodating us despite my booking on the wrong day, especially at this busy time of the year. We will return, that is for certain. Merry Christmas to you and your staff.”

“was a great experience 10 outta 10”

“Excelente servicio, muy rico 100% recomendable”

“Had dinner with a friend a couple of days ago and had an overall good experience but there was room for improvement. I ordered the coquilles st jacques. While the scallops were cooked well the purée lacked flavour.. missing that hit of cheese. I had to use some lemon to liven the dish a bit. My friend had the streak frites, medium rare that came rare. We had the kitchen bring to temp. I had a bite and it was tender and flavourful. I will return to try more from the menu and see how it goes. A great place either way for atmosphere and drinks.”

“Hadn't been before. Pleasantly surprised. Arrived early (4:15) fairly quiet, but was very loud by six. Food was really good, large choices of beers and ales.”

“Not a big place but that doesn't take away from the awesomeness.
Our hostess and server (Jamie) were amazing. The food came to us piping hot and delicious. What a great place to eat.”

“My experience was amazing. The food and service was genuinely outstanding. I was blown away by the customer service and friendliness of the staff. The server had impeccable knowledge of the menu and the food was to die for. I would definitely 10/10 recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to be blown away by a local restaurant with unique interior and delicious one of kind cuisine.”

“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”

“This was our third year in a row hosting a large dinner (13 people) in the private room downstairs, and each and every time it's been the perfect experience. The AV equipment is a breeze to set up, we control the volume of the music and the temperature in the room. That space, the team, the set menu they offer- just the best!”

“Excellent food and top-notch service. Thank you Cam!”

“Excellent food and vibe. Perfect date night for me and my wife!”

“Went here for date night; it was a lovely experience. The service, atmosphere and food were all on point. Price wise, it was very reasonable. We had apps, 2 drinks each and mains, and were out of there for under 200. Definitely would recommend this place. The pasta was cooked properly and seasoned nicely. We went on a Saturday and booked reservations in advance.”

“Our company rented the Bier Market on Tuesday October 6, 2026 and it was fantastic !!! The beer and drinks were amazing and the staff that evening was above and beyond!! There was a girl with long blonde hair that was serving and she was on point and quick to turn drinks around!! Bravo!!”

“Amazing atmosphere. Would recommend”

“Warm welcome/service - quick - delicious. A fun experience. Recommend and will go back!”

“Went here yesterday, really loved the ambience and the reflect of Nepali culture as the interior. I loved all food, everything was delicious. My favorite was the selroti achar and chowmein with their chutney. It gave me a typical Nepali taste and it felt so good. The service was lovely. Thank you so much for serving us and making our experience beautiful overall. Special thanks to the cook and the friendly young guy and girl who was in the cashier. Definitely recommend when you visit Ottawa and you’re craving some good Nepali food!”

“Best wings in otdawa”

“just watched you on 🤣The News Looks Soooo Fresh You had me At Pickled Onions shredded Lettuce Omgggg District Deli in ottawa I’m Coming To Try it !!!”

“Great experience at Barrio on Rideau!
The service was excellent, and a special shoutout to Mariaelisa for being so welcoming and attentive. The absolute highlight was the Hibiscus Pisco Sour cocktail—perfectly balanced, beautifully presented, and incredibly refreshing. Highly recommend checking this spot out!”

“Had a couple of hours to kill before a flight so I looked for a good breakfast place. Stacked came up and wow is it great! Our server Emily was amazing. The menu has some delightfully unexpected selections and the food quality is too notch. Highly recommended!”

“We had such a lovely experience here Saturday night. I had made a reservation for four, but ended up arriving with our son as well when our babysitting plans didn’t work out. I apologized that we were suddenly five, and the staff were so gracious about it, immediately putting together a larger table for us and making us feel completely welcome.

The food was amazing, but what really stood out to me was the service. The staff was warm, attentive and seemed genuinely aware of what might make our evening easier and more enjoyable. At one point the chef even sent out a little vegetarian sushi roll for our son to try which was such a thoughtful surprise.

It was just a really lovely evening all around. Great food, wonderful service, and the kind of hospitality I'm still thinking about days later.”

“My favorite burger in Ottawa hands down. Get the regular single burger, add a tomato and bbq sauce and thank me later! If you don't like smash style burgers, you may not like this place however. Their chicken tenders are also amazing and the prices are very reasonable. Wait can suck on weekdays but its well worth it!”

“Super cute place I ordered the Tacchino Tricolore and it just might be the best sandwich I've ever head. Definitely Recommend!!! Service is super good as well”

“Excellent food, great atmosphere, even better service. Loved everything about this place! The staff was incredibly knowledgeable about gluten free items, and made sure to differentiate between items that were totally safe vs potential cross contamination (shared fryer). We will be back again!”

“We go here often. It is so yummy and the service is always top notch and the place is always very clean and nice atmosphere”
